Opacity mask data extraction?

[jonh91216198]

Hi,

     I would love the ability to motion track within Premiere (for adding moving tracked titles ect.) I am well aware you can link through to AE and acheive this, but I feel it adds a very annoying and slow step to something that premiere actually already does well (well enough for this purpose anyway)

The opacity masks can be automatically tracked and the resulting keyframes in the 'mask path' section obviously contain data for position, rotation and scale (assuming you have all 3 selected in the spanner).

Does anyone know of a way to extract this data from the keyframes so it can be added to the position/rotation/scale sections of a text layer? 

I know this is 'possible' as there is a plugin that does exacty that, but id like to be able to manually do it as the amount premiere costs each month i somewhat begrudge paying for additional plugins when Adobe already has the functionality built in but doesnt 'allow' us to use it as a feature directly.

many thanks

Jon
