In case of a sequence with no Vdeo ID filed populated, Avid WS reports only "VIDEO_ID_NOT_FOUND" and does not provide any other details about the sequence about no rendered effects, media offline and so on.

Is there a way to get information about the sequence without video ID?

Iulian,

We're checking for an answer...

The API will return error when it first encounter a problem. To find out more info about the clip, I suggest

you can try to call GetAttributes to find out if the sequence contains an "Video ID",

GetRelative to find the children clips of the sequnce, for each child clip returned you can

find the file ststus by calling GetFileDeatils.

I understand your suggestion but there are so many calls to be executed in ordert o get if the sequence is ready. Video ID is not a mandatory field to be populated so, it should not be a failure state. For the proposed solution, getfiledetails is working only for masterclips and not for rendered effects.
