Explanation
This explains the functional steps within the sequence. For all the other XML details please refer to Formats and syntax
ActionScript.SetProperty(“Playbacks.Editor.SelectedPlayback”, handle:“chaseHandleUN=17589”)
selects distinct chase playbacks identified by their user numberActionScript.SetProperty(“Playbacks.Editor.Times.PlaybackSpeed”, 100.0)
sets a certain speed for the selected chase. Seems that the actual speed is calculated on a basis of 3,600 BPM, or 1 == 1/60 secondHandles.SetSourceHandleFromHandle(“chaseHandleUN=1049”)
selects another playback to set its legendActionScript.SetProperty(“Handles.PendingLegend”, “Speed 200%”)
sets this handle's legend as indicator for the current setting
How to use it
- maybe create some macros with various speed settings
- make sure your chases have the correct user numbers
- fire the macros to set specific speeds
