Hi all - is there a magic expression out there that I could use to do a text "burn in" on some footage that is an image sequence?  I did some stop motion tests, and I've got camera raws and jpegs that I'd like to easily identify in my quicktimes that I'm kicking out from the shoot.

So, you know, frame 50 of my comp might be "img_5523.jpg" - would be great to be able to put a text slug overlay that displays the exact frame of the image sequence.  And also, it might be useful to have the entire path of the sequence too, and be able to split out the folder name with a lindex or something.

Any ideas?  I can do it manually by animating numbers and things but it's clunky.

Thanks!
-J
