Premiere: xml track name removed when converted to otio

[imkindofabigdeal]

Hi Folks, I'm exporting a very basic sequence from premiere, 2 video tracks as an xml, named, in premiere, track01 and track02.

And then converting the xml to otio. The issue I'm having is that the track name seems to get stripped out by the xml adapter.

Steps to reproduce.

timeline = otio.adapters.read_from_file("/path/to/file/sequence.xml") otio.adapters.write_to_file(timeline, "/path/to/file/sequence.otio")

timelineOTIO = otio.adapters.read_from_file("/path/to/file/sequence.otio")

for track in timelineOTIO.video_tracks():
print("{}".format(track.name))

for track in timelineOTIO.video_tracks():
print("{}".format(track.kind)) video video

In the xml I can see the track name in the tag MZ.TrackName track TL.SQTrackShy="0" TL.SQTrackExpandedHeight="73" TL.SQTrackExpanded="0" MZ.TrackTargeted="0" MZ.TrackName="track01">

The track01 and track02 names are not present in the otio file.

Is there some step that I'm missing, or is this not functionally possilbe atm?

Many thanks

Hey folks, this still seems to be an issue. Any fix incoming? I know the adapters were split out.

Custom Track Names will be available in the Premiere Pro native OTIO export.
