In a plugin I am building I want to get all video items from a presentation. To strip out anything not-video I do a check with isVideo. However, this returns false for a single looping video. After some digging I suspect that the problem is the asterisk notation behind the extension of a looping video (found in the FilePlaylist property).
This problem consists of 2 parts:
Part 1: getValue returns the file path including the asterisk notation for looping (*0*2 for example). (When I printed the value that getValuereturned I also got *0*[times already looped] back).
It seems that setValue was fixed for #295/#296 but getValue was not?
Part 2: isVideo looks at the prop:srcitem (the same thing that getValue returns) and when this includes the asterisk info the regex to check if it is a video fails. Because the regex does not allow anything after the extension.
The fix would therefore probably be to have getValue not return the asterisk-part, and let isVideo() use getValue(). A workaround for me now is to add [\*,\d]* before the dollar sign of the regex.
