  Report duration of all projects Comps

  Posted by Erick Pinell on August 31, 2009 at 7:33 pm

  Is there a script that will report the duration of each comp in a project? I’ve searched several forums but haven’t been able to find anything useful.

  Thanks,
  Erick.

  This should do it…
  right now it just writes the result to the Javascript Console of the extendscript editor, and displays a dialog.
  If you have a hundred comps in the project, that dialog might get bigger than the screen, just hit enter !

  comps=extractCompItems(app.project);

  report="Comp-length Report\r";
  for (c in comps) {
  report+=("Comp \""+comps[c].name+"\" has a duration of "+comps[c].duration+" sec\r");
  }
  $.writeln(report);
  alert(report,'report');

  function extractCompItems(prj) {
  comps=[];
  if (prj.numItems) {
  for (i=1;i<=prj.numItems;i++) {
  it=prj.item(i);
  if(it.typeName=="Composition") {
  comps.push(it);
  }
  }

  }
return comps;
}
