Generates interactively a target file with a timecode offset to be used during Adobe Premiere batch list transfers. User selects source and target file references, is given the option of applying a time offset to the time codes and to rename output files which are marked to be captured. All other content, including comments, is left intact during the copying process.
The Windows Script Host environment provides support for describing scripts, passing parameters, including external source files and loading type libraries. Here is the output which the framework shows to guide proper usage of the program:
offsetpbl - Regenerates Adobe Premiere batch list with name conversion and timecode offset
Usage: offsetpbl.wsf [/input:value] [/timecode:value] [/find:value] [/replace:value] [/output:value]
Options:
input : i - Reference of Premiere source batch list file
timecode : t - Timecode offset
find : f - Find file name pattern
replace : r - Replace file name pattern
output : o - Reference of Premiere target batch list file
Example:
cscript offsetpbl.wsf /input:source.pbl /t:"-1:21" /o:"violin clips.pbl"
The utilities of the Virtuosi Digital Video Processing Environment all share a common set of functionality provided by source code templates and a modular support library. This basic functionality is generated by a Windows Script Host application wizard which provides handlers for optional and mandatory command line arguments. The framework supports short mnemonic aliases for named arguments. Programs generate standard errorlevel responses to problems during validation of arguments, file paths, file structure or ActiveX component loading.
Here are the specific capabilities of the offsetpbl utility:
