Merge Profiles? - bring over adjustable preview

[stempile]

I am have not tried anything yet. I would like to figure out a method to merge profiles.

My neighbor and I plan to hook our displays together, however we have each developed our own profile. My plan was just to add on his channels to the end of my sequence. Then copy his sequence information from his sequence to mine.

However after thinking about it I would like to figure out a way to merge some of his profile into mine. For each the Adjustable preview. I would like to because to keep his adjustable preview in tack so that I can assign the his channels (at the bottom of my seq) to his already create preview. The only option maybe to have him build his adjustable preview as part of my profile...

Can I copy the preview config out of his profile file and past it into my profile file?

Thanks

I copied the <PlugIn> to </PlugIn> for the adjustable preview. It showed up in tact within the same profile. So I was able to copy of an adjustable preview picture with channel pixels. This might be handy. The next step will be merging the channels section then bring in the other adjustable preview.

These xml data files are handy. I am sure if I had more time I could write up a script to parse it and merge it. Need to get perl running on the windows box...

The following Tags appear to require updates to merge the channels data:

<ChannelObject> </ChannelObject>
<Outputs></Outputs>
<SortOrders> </SortOrders>

For testing I just increased everything by 1. Will test with two profiles soon and report the results.
