Simple Bin Creation

[colinatwork]

First I want to start by saying what an incredible library this is! The amount of effort it took from @markreidvfx to do this is really impressive!

I am currently slogging through all the joys of AVID bin creation and have hit a bit of a wall. My use case is fairly simple, I just want to create a bin with a number of clips in it. No sequences or anything like that. I have made some good progress, but whenever I try to relink the media to my programmatically generated bin, I get a cm_offset_out_of_range error in AVID.

I wanted to see if anyone had ended up being able to make bins like this programmatically, and if so, if they'd be willing to share their thoughts. Attached is a zip of:

• The code (bin_me_up_scotty.py)
• A manually created AVID Bin that works as expected in AVID (manual.avb)
• A programmatically created AVID Bin that does NOT work in AVID (programatic_bin.avb)
• A dump for each bin

If anyone is up for sharing, the help would be very much appreciated. And if not, hopefully this code can give someone else out there a starting off point!

Thanks again for this most excellent library!
