Hello!

 

We are currently developing a cep panel for adobe premiere pro using Bolt. I've been doing some digging in the documentations but I can't find any way to determine weather the video is playing or not, is there a way to know the status of the video other than just the point in time? Or are there any existing events that we could use for knowing when a video has been played/paused that are not docuemmeted?

 

Appreaceate the help!

There's nothing in PPro's ExtendScript API that allows for that. 

What would you do with it, if that information were available?

Thanks for you reply!

I'm working on a feature were we sync audio with video, so we pause/play the video when the music pauses/plays and vice versa. I found that I can use this undocumented prop: 

qe.project.getActiveSequence().player.isPlaying

to check for if the video is playing or not, and it seems to work okey so I'll give it a go for now! Thanks 🙂
