How to check if a clip in an Adobe Premiere sequence is a Black Video?

[Birdofparadise]

Is there any way to discriminate a Black Video item-clip on the Adobe Premiere track via script?

Does the Black Video item have any special characteristic that distinguishes it from another video clip?

And for a Color Matte?

Thankyou so much in advance!

Each trackItem has a backing projectItem; projectItems for Color Matte or Black Video will not have a path.

Great, thank you very much, Bruce. I've solved it with the code:
...
if (getRootItem.getMediaPath().length != 0) {...}
