script to add audio and clips at certain points

[codeBeastAdobe]

Hi. I create educational videos for students to learn English.

I create the same video for every single class. BUT I record the audio separately for each class then add it to the video.

Is here a way of me automating the task. ie: Create an audio folder for each class. Use script to add the audio at certain points in the video, then export the video. This way I don't have to add the audio separately for each audio and each class. It would save me days of work literally.

Yes, that's completely possible. 

You'd run such a script from within a CEP panel; here's the PProPanel example, and here's some "getting started" info. 🙂

Example code, for inserting projectItems into a sequence:

Example code, for rendering a sequence:

Hello

Thanks for the answer, you seem to be a super expert. I personnaly had difficulty reading it first. I would have few questions if you dont mind.

1) What is (ProjectItemType.BIN) ? It seems there are 3 types: BIN, FILE and CLIP, but I am missing one because they all both to numbers up to 4, but in the whole file you linked there are only 4 times.

2) This line (timeAtZero.seconds) indicates the instant 0, right? My question is how to indicate another number? for example second 121 (2:01) ?

Thanks

1. The fourth type is ROOT, the root of the project.
2. Correct; you can indicate another time by passing a new value in ticks (254016000000 ticks per second), or a floating point value for seconds (121.0, for your example).
