Scripting Video script in Photoshop

Hi everybody!
Is it possible to read video frames with a Photoshop script?

I have a video file, and i want to layer all frames in Lighten blend mode. I don't need the layers themself, just a render of all the frames.

What I currently do is:
1) File->Import->Video Frames to Layers...
2) Manually setting a start and end frame (Not accurate at all, there are no frame numbers! :evil:), as photoshop won't allow for more than 500 frames at once.
3) Wait for the frames to load as layers
4) Select all layers
5) Change blend mode to Lighten
6) Flatten the image and save it
7) Repeat steps 1 to 6 , hoping not to miss any frames, until I reach end of video
8) load all flattened images from step 6 as layers for a new file
9) Change the blend mode to Lighten
10) Flatten and save the final image.

Is there a script that will read each frame and blend it (Lighten) with the frame before it, then flatten and repeat?

Thanks in advance for any and all input and help! :)
