Attach metadata to video rendered by media encoder using extendScript

[Adrien5E13]

Hi,

I'm working on an Premiere Extension Panel and was wondering if it's possible to attach the premiere project documentId to the exported video using extendScript.

This exported video will then be uploaded online and the goal is to be able to automaticaly fetch the correct video associated to the premiere project id.

Typically, your extension would be at the mercy of the metadata output settings in effect, when the export was triggered. 

I can think of a 'brute force' approach which might work, though...

Upon successful programmatic export, your extension will be given the file path to the output media. Your extension could then:

• import that media into the project, 
• set whatever XMP metadata you like,
• save the project (to flush the cached metadata to disk),
• delete the media from the project (put it in a 'deleteMe' bin, delete the bin)
• save the project again
