Premiere Path Settings Action

With the help of the Premiere Path Settings Action V2, all available paths that can be set in the project settings, can be pointed to a pre-defined location. This covers various paths for the scratch disk as well as the ingest settings tab in the project settings

This node can be used while creating opening a project. No path is set by default, but the auto save location template is the one that should be set to use the HelmutFX "restore saves" function. By default the following wildcard can be used for the auto save location: {project.parent}/Saves

HelmutFX expects all auto save files to be saved in this folder. Every other path can be set as desired.

Before any manipulation of the project file is executed, a backup of the project file will be created with the extension '*.prproj_backup'. If the manipulation encounters an issue, such as creating a 0 KB project file, the backup file will be used to replace the corrupted file.
