System Information
Operating system: Windows, Linux
Blender Version
Broken: 2.93
Worked: 2.92
Short description of error
bpy.ops.sequencer.image_strip_add() does not read the 'directory' variable correctly: it will truncate off the final subdirectory if the variable does not end in the path separator ('\' or '/').
For instance, attempting to import 'test.jpg' in the 'C:\tmp' folder as:
bpy.ops.sequencer.image_strip_add(directory="C:\\tmp', files=[{'name': 'test.jpg'}]
will result in a strip with the source of 'C:\test.jpg', rather than 'C:\tmp\test.jpg' as it should be.
Note that in Blender 2.92, it would load the correct file in the correct path with the same code.
Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Run the following code in blender (change the first two lines to point to an actual image file):
folder = 'C:\\tmp' file = 'test.jpg' import bpy area = False for screenarea in bpy.context.window.screen.areas: if screenarea.type == 'SEQUENCE_EDITOR': area = screenarea if area: override = bpy.context.copy() override['area'] = area bpy.ops.sequencer.image_strip_add(override, directory=folder, files=[{'name':file}], frame_start=1, frame_end=100)
Lines 4-10 are required to just get the operator working and are not related to the bug.
