Hi Nirmal, I don’t have a clear understanding of what you’re trying to do. Can you state it again for us - from a user’s perspective? For example: I want to make a new sequence from media (clips) which are already in a sequence, from in to out points that I set, and which has multiple audio tracks.  Your effort may be getting confused if one of the sequences is multicam. If you make a subsequence from multicam, it will only use the active camera - and there is no support in extendscript for this. -Dan ... View more

Hi NICK3DCODE, You might find trackItem.move() useful.  https://ppro-scripting.docsforadobe.dev/item/trackitem.html?highlight=trackitem+move#trackitem-move It's in the sample panel here: https://github.com/Adobe-CEP/Samples/blob/9efca02ea88ad32a8c22571f5ffe2407ae732cd8/PProPanel/jsx/PPRO/Premiere.jsx#L2918 ...

Hi Birdofparadise, You've come to the right place.  Inside the Audio Channel Mapping Object, is a setMappingForChannel() method documented here: https://ppro-scripting.docsforadobe.dev/other/audiochannelmapping.html# and there is a sample for you to steal look at here: https://github.com/Adobe-CEP/Samples/blob/9efca02ea88ad32a8c22571f5ffe2407ae732cd8/PProPanel/jsx/PPRO/Premiere.jsx#L2340 I hope this helps. Let us know if you have more questions, and thanks for developing for Premiere Pro. -Dan ... View more

Hi Matias, Glad that you found createSequenceFromPreset. For anyone else following along, a sample of that is here: https://github.com/Adobe-CEP/Samples/blob/9efca02ea88ad32a8c22571f5ffe2407ae732cd8/PProPanel/jsx/PPRO/Premiere.jsx#L639 ...and its simpler cousin, createSequence: https://github.com/Adobe-CEP/Samples/blob/9efca02ea88ad32a8c22571f5ffe2407ae732cd8/PProPanel/jsx/PPRO/Premiere.jsx#L633 If you want to play around with your original idea, I think that the exception error you're getting is because you don't have the parentheses following the function - see "getSettings();" below. I did the simple trick of getting current settings, changing one parameter, (videoFrameHeight), and then setting the settings, which now include the new parameter, and it worked fine. Thanks for developing for Premiere Pro, sorry it took so long to respond. -Dan var seq = app.project.activeSequence; if (seq) { var currentSeqSettings = seq.getSettings(); currentSeqSettings.videoFrameHeight = 1080; app.project.activeSequence.setSettings(currentSeqSettings); }   ...

You probably want to have a look at TrackItem.projectItem at https://ppro-scripting.docsforadobe.dev/item/trackitem.html#trackitem-projectitem Which gets you the ProjectItem object from which the media is being drawn.   ... View more

Hi Kevin Chop Chop, If you're hoping to develop a panel yourself, we recommend looking through the Premiere Pro Sample panel. It exercizes all of the methods available, and it has a readme on how to set yourself up for development.  https://github.com/Adobe-CEP/Samples/tree/master/PProPanel Also, we published a simple panel to the Creative Cloud plugin directory, it merely sorts your assets into bins based on media type, you may find it useful as an example. The Sortinator  And though we can't make endorsements, and we love all our development partners equally, Mathias Moehl is a clever guy, and Automation Blocks is cool. Good luck, and reach out with with questions. -Dan       ... View more

Hello, and thanks for the question. It looks like what you want to try is app.project.importFiles() to import a valid FCP XML file. And, if it contains sequences, it will do what you describe in your post.  We have an example of it running in a panel here: https://github.com/Adobe-CEP/Samples/blob/e60d6a22ef44d8eb4cca3904c35a0c050576b697/PProPanel/jsx/PPRO/Premiere.jsx#L444   Another XML reference you might want to be aware of is; openFCPXML() which opens an .xml file as a new PPro project.  https://ppro-scripting.docsforadobe.dev/application/application.html?highlight=xml#app-openfcpxml   Hope this helps. -Dan     ...

Without scripting, there is no way to achieve a full automation of this - but you can get close.  You can select each clip individually, make it a nested sequence, and then select all of the nested sequences and export them all at once to AME. As a time saving tip, you can set a keyboard shortcut to make a nested sequence. The process is shown in this video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAljQaz6NTc&t=94s ... View more

Hi there, Yes, there is a published API that will allow you to automate most features in Premiere Pro.  We have a sample panel which demonstrates what is possible.  Note: you'll need some JavaScript skill.

Hello, Most of your questions can be answered by reading about the PPro API at this link: https://ppro-scripting.docsforadobe.dev/ And by downloading a PrPro sample panel at this link. Once loaded, the Premiere Pro sample panel has working buttons that perform many of the actions you ask about. : https://github.com/Adobe-CEP/Samples/tree/master/PProPanel 1. Yes, you can import an SRT file, but not do too much else with it. Full caption access will come with UXP functionality sometime next year.  2. I'm not sure what your distinction is: Panels rely on extendscript to interact with motion graphics templates. Panels can import mogrts - see sample panel - importMoGRT  3. Yes. see sample panel - importFiles : function 4. No, you cant add a transition, but you can adjust the parmeters of one if it's already there, see the sample panel under onPlayWithKeyframes. 5. see 4 6. I'm not quite sure what you're asking, perhaps you're asking about importing Mogrts. 7. No APi for adding transparent video. 8. See the API link above.   Let us know if we can help.       ...

Hi Garik31158953ulds, It sounds like you want might be trying to create a Premiere Pro project file, (.prproj), without using Premiere Pro - which is not advised. With that warning out of the way, PrPro does have an API which will probably allow you to do what you need.  For example, automate creation of a new .prproj, and import video. Here’s that link: https://ppro-scripting.docsforadobe.dev/ Also, hint: https://ppro-scripting.docsforadobe.dev/application/application.html?highlight=app.newProject#app-newproject ... View more

Hi everyone, I came across a repro of this today. I found that I got the error message if the AE comp had not been saved. So that's a simple workaround - save your Ae project before trying to drag to PPro. I acknowledge that the error pop-up is not useful, and I wrote a bug on that, we'll track it as DVAPR-4245685, and I'll link this discussion thread to it. ... View more

Official-[ish] word on this, (and while you may see Bruce drop in on this forum, he is on sabbatical until mid-June) : We are working to build the infrastructure that lets us move forward on UXP with confidence. We will share that progress with developers as soon as there is something we can reasonably share. We're not actively adding any new features to the current (CEP) API. ... View more

Hi Elisey, We're glad you found this forum. I think I can point you at the correct resources to get started. PPro supports CEP (Common Extensibility Platform) panels, which are basically web pages with two super powers:  1. They can access the local file system, and  2. They can drive PPro's ExtendScript API.    Overview:  General CEP page:  https://github.com/Adobe-CEP A Fancy CEP sample panel that shows off everything possible:  https://github.com/Adobe-CEP/CEP-Resources/tree/master/CEP_11.x/Samples/CEP_HTML_Test_Extension-10.0   I think, Elisey, that this is going to be the most useful place for you to begin; the PProPanel, while unrepentantly ugly, shows everything in PPro's ExtendScript API: https://github.com/Adobe-CEP/Samples/tree/master/PProPanel Follow the steps in the PProPanel ReadMe, to set up your dev environment. Here are a few PPro specific things that I think are specific to what you wan to do:   PPro supports the manipulation of clip markers (associated with a specific piece of media) and sequence markers.  Here's PProPanel playing with clip markers:  https://github.com/Adobe-CEP/Samples/blob/5490c33ac8355ba394c693deb10414553b0a5685/PProPanel/jsx/PPRO/Premiere.jsx#L953   Here's PProPanel playing with sequence markers:  https://github.com/Adobe-CEP/Samples/blob/5490c33ac8355ba394c693deb10414553b0a5685/PProPanel/jsx/PPRO/Premiere.jsx#L301   You can get/set markers to your heart's content, based on whatever you like. Among the first questions you're likely to have:  + PPro assigns each marker a GUID, so you can tell whether your panel is encountering a 'known' marker, that the user has moved to a different time. + No, there's no way to add an extra field to PPro's markers. If you'd like to inject unique identifiers of your own into markers, the best approach available today is putting a GUID into the marker comments. Here is the publlished API for Premiere Pro: https://ppro-scripting.docsforadobe.dev/   Panel distribution:  You can distribute your panel, free or paid, through the Adobe Exchange store. This will make your extension available to every Creative Cloud user.  Open your Creative Cloud App and go to Stock and Marketplace > Plugins > All Plugins > Premiere Pro For users who operate disconnected from Creative Cloud (which definitely happens), you can make a signed compressed .zxp file for distribution, and use ZXPInstaller.com or Anastasiy's Extension Manager to install them.     The info above should get you started. I propose that you set up a dev system, play with the sample panels (particularly PProPanel), and reach out for help as needed.   -Dan ... View more
