     from ChateniarAI.Editor.Template import addVideoToTrack
     addVideoToTrack.execute(timeline, trackIndex, mediaPath)

   • Add audio to track:

     from ChateniarAI.Editor.Template import addAudioToTrack
     addAudioToTrack.execute(timeline, trackIndex, mediaPath)

4. Project Management:

   • Create new project:

     from ManageProject import ProjectManager
     project = ProjectManager.createProject("MyProject")

   • Manage media:

     from ManageProject import MediaManager
     MediaManager.importMedia(project, "path/to/media")
