This is the scenario I have been wondering about ever since the
NukeStudio concept was announced:
How will the nuke and the hiero pytho api's communicate with each other?
In Hiero/NS it's no problem to get a track item at a given time via
hiero.core.Sequence.trackItemsAt()
That, however, is using the hiero api, whereas the Text node is using
the nuke api.
If you look at the BurnIn gizmo's Text nodes you can see the rather
unflattering hotchpotch of nuke specific python, tcl and generic python:
[python
nuke.thisNode().metadata(nuke.toNode(nuke.thisNode().fullName().split('.')\\\[len(nuke.thisNode().fullName().split('.'))-2\\]).knob(\"burnIn_topLeft\").value(),
\[frame\])]
How is this sort of approach ever going to reconcile with the hiero api
in a manner that is customisable and supportable?
In other words, it looks like any timeline context is lost on the Nuke
side of things - but I hope I'm wrong.

Let's ignore {shot} name. Let's say I just want the {clip} name.
Right now if you add a track item text node it just looks up the
topmost active {clip} to pull data for that expression. I want it to
ignore the topmost and give me only {clip} names for Video1 for example?

Hi,
I don't think this is possible because you can only reference
metadata which is bound to your current shot. How would you know
which shot object has the same timing on another track?
One solution could be to add a tag to the shot that holds the
information your after as metadata. But I am not sure whether it
is possible to access the metadata of a tag already or it is a
feature request.
Best regards,
Michael
