Get Track names

[anthonyl56299920]

Hey,

I'm trying to export a sequence into a custom xml file and I'm currently trying to get the name of a track but I for the life of me can't figure out how.  I thought that it would be in the PrSDKVideoSegmentProperties, but I can only get the TrackId from there.  Nothing else.

Thanks for the help,

From what code are you exporting; plug-in, or panel?

[anthonyl56299920]

Export Controller Plug-In is what I am basing my code off of.

I don't know of any way to get track names from an Export Controller.

I'm curious; why would an Export Controller, which makes PPro render an entire sequence, care about track names?

Sorry it has been a while since I wrote the original plug-in.  I believe I started with the export controller because it was the simplest looking SDK example, but I don't end up using the export controller suit.  I mostly use the Video Segment Suite to parse the sequence and get as much of the data as I can out of it.  Is there another plug-in that I can use that will give me the info I need?

Not a plug-in, but HTML5-based panels (which use PPro's ExtendScript API) can get all info about every clip in a sequence (and edit most of it).

The PProPanel sample's readme explains how to set up a panel dev environment.
