Automate file info to a list with Kineme Patch for a folder of images (100+ images).

I want to dissolve a set of images based on the times the photographs were taken. Directory scanning patches get me the folder of images into QC. Kineme File info gets me the creation time in for single file. Not sure how to get that into a list to use for timing dissolves.

Could I iterate through the file list and queue the file creation times? Inside an iterator I can't get data out can I? Javascript iterates in one frame so how to update file info patch.

As work-around can rename files via a PS script to their creation times then use JS patch in QC to parse the file list for times.

Any advice that will save me time gratefully received. My comp creation phases are like my posts... too long winded.
