Hello,

to access the active render data you have to use GetActiveRenderData() on the given BaseDocument. This render data contains a list of video post effects.

You can loop through this list by getting the first video post with GetFirstVideoPost(). Then you can loop the video posts with GetNext(). In such a loop you can check if a video post of a certain type already exists with GetType().

If a certain video post does not exist, you can create is. Since there is no BaseVideoPost class in Python you cannot use the constructor of such class. But since video posts are based on BaseList2D you can simply use the BaseList2D constructor to create a new video post.

After you created the video post you can insert it into the given render data using InsertVideoPost().

To enable or disable video post effects one must edit the bit BIT_VPDISABLED.

Best wishes,
Sebastian
