| Ok, so this is really a QT question, because it applies when manually doing this in QT Player, but I'm trying to figure it out in an Applescript and hopefully someone here may have the key.
I have an applescript that successfully concatenates several QT movies (each ProRes with 8 audio and one Timecode track, all the same size/framerate). I do this with the typical commands:
tell document 1 rewind select all copy select none close end tell
make new document
tell document 1 paste end tell
open promoVideo
tell document 1 rewind select all copy select none close end tell
tell document 1 paste end tell
etc...
Now, with a bunch of movies seemingly with the same atoms (checking with both Properties and JES Extensifier) sometimes I get an output with all tracks appended (so the output movie only has one video and 8 audio tracks) and sometimes I get the tracks stacked (so that there is a separate audio track set and video track for each paste).
Does anyone recognize this behavior and know how to ensure that video track 1 is pasted into the end of video track 1 and not at that position but in its own video track 2 and so forth?
Thanks in advance
Steve
