I'm sure the Apple guys will be able to answer definitively, but my feeling is that you can't get there from here. FxTemporalImageAPI looks like it only deals with the input image(s) associated with the effect itself. Plus there doesn't appear to be a programmatic means of determining where clips are on the timeline if they're not associated with your effect. I'm trying to create a FxGenerator that can access images from the timeline using the FxTemporalImageAPI. So far, it doesn't work. I'd like to use the an image from the timeline, but still have the FxGenerator on it's own video track so that it can read input from multiple clips. I know this is kind of complicated sounding, but it makes the plug-in that I'm creating work much better as a generator than an FxFilter. The FxFilter ties it to only a single clip. I have the FxTemporalImageAPI working in the FxFilter version of the plug-in. However, no luck with the FxGenerator. The documentation says that an FxGenerator doesn't require an input image. I don't know if that means it simple can't access one altogether. This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
