Hello list,
Thanks for all you reactions. I'll answer in one post.
Luther's solution (converting item after item resulting in an alias
list) works so problem solved :-)
OTOH Yvan's solution doesn't work.
I get "System Events got an error: Can't get file ..."
Outside the tell System Events block I get "Cannot make file ... into
the expected type".
As for using Posix paths this fails because apparently AppleScript
cannot coerce a Posix path (passed on as 'utxt' data) to a Carbon file
reference (FSRef). Oddly it returns the startup disk instead.
I can easily handle this with code but this requires a new version of
JES Deinterlacer.
I suppose Chris has realized by now that I am the author of JES
Deinterlacer ;-)
@Luther Why is it better to avoid Posix paths? The file references
are used immediately in the script.
Jan E.
