Hello it's been a long time since my last post here. Since a lot has changed, i don't even know if I'm posting this in the right section.
I have this code here (script) for Adobe After Effects CS 6. It was working fine, until recently, when it started appear an undefined error at line 91 - here is the code:

Code:
var newFile = File.openDialog ("Select a file.");

if (newFile != null) {
    var wMap = readWeather(newFile, 0).contentAry;

    app.beginUndoGroup("Weather Map");
        setWeatherMap(wMap);
    app.endUndoGroup();
}

function readWeather(inputDoc, linesToSkip){
    var curDoc = new File(inputDoc);

    if (curDoc.exists) {
        var contentAry = new Array();
        curDoc.open("r");
   
        while (!curDoc.eof){
            contentAry[contentAry.length] = curDoc.readln();       
        }
   
        curDoc.close();
    }
    contentAry.splice(0, linesToSkip);
    var contentList = contentAry.join("_dpt_").toString().replace(new RegExp("_dpt_", "g"), "\r");
    contentAry = contentAry;
    return {
        'contentAry': contentAry,
        'contentList': contentList
    }
}

function setWeatherMap(content){
    try {
        if (content instanceof Array){
            var c, compName, curLine, line1, line2, line3, line4, pl;
            var theComps = [];
            var myFilesImp = [];
            var aryLength = content.length;
            var activeComp = app.project.activeItem;
            var imgDir = ("D:\\_kikac\\news 2015\\Kikac\\");
            var newAmt = 9;
            function processFolder(theFolder){
                for ( var i = 1; i <= newAmt; i++){
                    var importOpts = new ImportOptions( new File(theFolder + "w"+ i + ".mov"));
                    var importFiles = app.project.importFile (importOpts);
                    myFilesImp.push(importFiles);

EDIT: The line is on the code where I set the footage size (It is marked with a comment in the code)

The only thing I can see is the error is happening on a divide line. Any chance that myfile.width or myfile.source.pixelAspect are zero? If so you would get a divide by zero error and that might be the cause.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
