We're having some roadblock issues with wrapping a custom FxPlug in a .moef and using in FCPX.
1. FxRenderInfo.frame returns the frame number relative to 29.97fps (regardless of the FPS of the .moef). e.g. frame 4 on a 25fps FCPX timeline is shown as frame 4.8 within the FxPlug. Using a .moef with different fps, seems to not make any difference so does assume .moefs are 29.97fps?
2. The returned durationForEffect value is fixed at the duration of the .moef, regardless of the duration of the clip on the FCPX timeline. This makes it impossible to backtime FxPlug animation from the end of the clip. So a 300 frame .moef will always show up in FCPX as 300 frames duration.
3. hostIsFCP returns false in FCPX.
I'm presuming all this is happening because the FxPlug has no knowledge of it's top host (FCPX), when wrapped in a .moef. Are there any workarounds?
thanks
