Applying meta data

When applying meta data using Bridge, is the meta data imbeded in the destination file?
If the file is viewed outside bridge is the meta data lost?

In a raw image all metadata is put on an xmp file.  In other formats they are mostly considered written to file.  DNG writes to image.
Not all programs read metadata, or read them partially.

  • Catalog settings and meta data is there a better way.

    HI
    I have adobe cs4 and light room 2.2 I do my editing in LR cropping exposure web galleries and so on on, thats all well and good but any modifications i make will not show up in the bridge unless i go into light room and apply save meta data to files. I have about 400 light room catalogs as I store the catalog in the folder that contains the original image. Is there a way to have light room automatically apply meta data changes to each catalog in stead of going to catalog settings or saving the meta data to the file. its a pain in the *** to have to go into a catalog and apply all those settings if i want to do some editing in the bridge

    > ...is there a better way ...
    Might I humbly suggest that your multiple (400!!) catalog strategy is flawed? You have defeated the benefits of having a single database. (And those that argue a database is bad concept and a possible single point of failure are ... well ... simply wrong.)
    Lr can automatically write XMP data so that Bridge can read it. But the reverse is not true. Any changes that Bridge/ACR make will have to be imported into Lr with manually initiation.
    The point and beauty of Lr is that you make the majority of adjustments in Lr. It's possible to make adjustments in Bridge and have them imported into Lr but as you discovered it is not automatic. And your workflow choice makes it doubly (or 400 times) more troublesome.

  • Applying DataFinder to incomplete meta data

    Im using the LabVIEW DataFinder Toolbox and I came across a weird problem with the OR operation. I want to find all files where propety1 equals some value1 OR property2 equals some value2. So I created the queries property1= value1 and propery2= value2 and merges them by OR. Note that in most files either propety1 or propety2 is defined, i.e. there are only a few files where BOTH propeties are defined. When I excecute the query DataFinder ignores all files that do define only one property, i.e. most of the files I am looking for are excluded. Is there any way to extend the OR query to incomplete meta data? 

    Hi us09,
    Thank you for reporting this bug in the DataFinder.  R&D has reproduced the incorrect behavior and is actively pursuing eliminating the problem for the next build of DIAdem, the DataFinder Server Edition, and the LabVIEW DataFinder Toolkit.  With a little luck we may be able to issue the fixed version of the DataFinder in the Beta2 of the LabVIEW DataFinder Toolkit.  If you're not a LabVIEW Beta tester, then you could instead install the DIAdem 2010 Beta in early April 2010-- that would update your DataFinder with a version that has the fix in it, so that your existing LabVIEW 2009 DataFinder Toolkit would have the correct OR query behavior.
    I'll try to post again when I hear definitely about any of this,

    How i know the jdbc driver not compatible to this
    mechanismBy reading the documentation tthat comes with your driver. Recent versions of the MySQL JDBC driver do support the getExportedKeys/ImportegKeys methods but the table needs to be crated as InnoDB.
    So run the SQL command
    show table statusWhats under the Type column for your table? If it isn't InnoDB then this isn't going to work.
    If it is InnoDB but getExportedKeys/ImportegKeys still don't work then you haven't used the "foreign key" constraint in your "create table" command

  • Used Relocate Masters to new g-drive. Lost Aperature Library and meta data

    how i crashed aperature
    1.56 aperature
    all updates current
    tiger 10.4.11
    all updates current
    Goal was to move Aperature Library from MBP to g-drive.
    what i did:
    1. "Relocate Master" to g-drive. Success. Aperature still viewed all Files with all Meta Data normally.
    2. Collapsed "Library" in Projects Panel. Did not delete Projects. Did not delete any Photos.
    3. Preferences > Image Management > set new Aperature Library on g-drive.
    4. Uploaded new photos from a Canon and viewed them successfully.
    5. Ejected g-drive correctly.
    what Aperature is not doing now:
    1. no Projects show up.
    2. no Referenced Photos show up.
    3. no Vaults show up. Note: the Vault was originally on MBP, but I foolishly did not set one up on g-drive before moving. I also have a back up Vault on a different g-drive that is, unfortunately, not up to date with all current photos before move.
    4. Aperature Library on g-drive is there but can not open any files in it. [note: item 3 above]
    5. Image files listed in g-drive but won't open in Aperature but do open in Preview or Gimp, etc.
    6. Aperature does not show any Vaults nor does it access Referenced Files.
    *Can you help ?*
    *I guess these would be the questions:*
    1. How can I get the pics from the g-drive back into an Aperature Library with all the previous Meta Data attached to each Version?
    2. How do I get the Aperature Library - I put on the g-drive - to open in Aperature?
    3. If #1 is impossible - I guess I set up a Vault on the g-drive and move what I have from the back up Vault mentioned above.
    *Thanks for any advice !!!*

    If I an not mistaken, I may have read through your pdf's quite a while ago. I am still trying to digest them and then apply them to my needs. If I had known that small projects may be faster and easier to manage than larger ones I would have done my imports quite differently. I chose to use Aperture in the first place to organize and add information to photos. I archive old photos. In particularly from 350th Fighter Group, WWII in the Mediterranean. So one "Project" of mine is =/-5000 images in the form of TIFF scans. I imported all of these into 1 project. Then I started applying metadata and keywwords like crazy. This allowed me to start to sort the photos into categories and find multiple version of the same image. I started making stacks of all the multiples. Then with smart albums and smart web sites I was able to create what might now be smaller projects. Since I gather information from others by sharing these photos on a website, You are able to see the smart websites here.
    http://web.me.com/vizcarraguitars/350thFighter_Group_Blog/350th_FG_Blog/350th_FGBlog.html
    One cool thing is that various images reside in multiple smart webs based on common keyword. But now that I have all this organization, it seems it is time to put all my originals in a similar order via Aperture.
    By the way, my files are reference files unless I make the mistake of importing them without leaving them in there original location.
    I am thinking of starting over with blue folders. But I can't seem to get my head around it.

  • Quicktime Meta-data Access (Creation Time)

    Greetings,
    I'd like to be able to pull the creation time from a quicktime file. A bit of browsing at Apple's QT site left me quite confused. It does seem, however, that the time (or was it just the date) is available as a tag inside the QT file. Anybody have a working bit of code I can steal??
    Background: My digital camera (Kodak 3600) lets me shoot quicktime snippets. But, their transfer software is broken (misorders files). It also doesn't do the file management the way I want it to be done :) So, anyway, I'm putting together a simple swing client to handle the chore. I'd like to be able to get the creation time from the metadata, so I can correctly order the images/videos on my PC archive. I have successfully used JExif to grab Exif tags from the JPGs, and would like to get similar info from the metadata inside the quicktime file.
    Thanks very much for your help,
    Bill Nace

    Don't have working code (though it's an interesting little thing to try when I get back home), but if you're willing to switch from JMF to QuickTime for Java, the "Media" class in that API has a getCreationTime() method that is probably what you're looking for. This returns an int that represents the number of seconds (not milliseconds) elapsed since Midnight, Jan 1, 1904 (ie, the Beginning of Macintosh Time).
    As for getting the Media, start with a Movie, get the right Track, then do Track.getMedia().getCreationTime(). Appropriate caveats about QTJ's difficulty apply, as do apologies for bringing it up in this forum.
    Shot in the dark, but it looks like that's how you do it in QTJ. Don't know if JMF exposes this meta-data in any way (kinda thinking not...)

  • When I change my meta data in iTunes why does it not get displayed in Sonos or MediaMonkey

    Hello,
    I noticed that when I change the meta data in iTunes for example by right clicking an album -> get info   and than change the Genre of the album and than click OK . It takes the changes in iTunes but I have a Sonos System and when I update my music library the changes are not being displayed . When I now put the album in MediaMonkey I also can not see the genre change . This used to work back in the days .
    Did iTunes change anything in regards to handling and saving meta data ? iTunes does not seem to save the information in the file anymore ?
    Thanks,
    A

    I solved my problem. Here's how:
    1. Right click iTunes and click properties from the "Windows 8 Desktop" (or if you want to call it the 7 desktop thats fine too)
    2. Select the compatibility tab.
    3. Set compatibility mode to Windows 7 and click apply.
    4. Open iTunes, sign into iTunes store, Turn on iTunes Match, Add your computer.
    5. Close Program
    6. Restart Computer

  • Problems with Importing / Exporting Keywords and Meta Datas

    Hi to all!
    I recently upgraded to Aperture 3 and upgraded my referenced library.
    Today I opened the Keyword HUD and noticed some keywords splattered in my list, which seem to be any older ones, since the new numbering indicated that they are not applied to any pictures.
    So I deleted them.
    Than I noticed the <Imported Keywords> folder, opened it, and it contained also a large number of previous keywords. Also they seemed not to be in use, so I also removed them.
    Than I locked the Keyword HUD.
    Now my question: If I export a version, with the option for 'include metadata' ticked, and edit the version than in Photoshop, and after it, import it back into the Aperture library I do have the problem.
    I have tried 'Import Meta Datas' and and click 'Append'. Than it is recognizing the former keywords, which I would appreciate, but not as 'Imported Keywords'.
    If I would open the file w/ the External Editor and return it back, I guess I would not have this problem. Usually I do open the referenced RAW file, and import than the edited version back into Aperture. Keywords are stored in the Library, so I would not avail the former given keywords than, is that right?
    By the way are the keywords part of Meta Datas or not?
    Are there any workarounds?
    And had other people also problems with their keyword list after upgrading?
    Thank for any ideas / infos!

  • LR5: Export video files doesn't write meta data

    When I export video files (e.g. MP4) from LR5, no meta data is written to the files when I expect at least the year and title to be written. 
    Files like mp4, m4v and mov all have well documented meta data fields.  Why doesn't LR support this?

    LR's support for video is incomplete.  Please see and vote on this topic in the official feedback forum:

  • LR is using meta data from previous edited photos on new imports

    LR is using meta data from previous edited photos on new imports-
    When I am importing new photos to a new catalog LightRoom gave all the photo settings that I had used on a previous catalogs photo I had to delete the catalog because I could not find an answer anywhere. Tried the deleteing and importing 3 times with same result.
    Once I did Start another new catalog and pressed reset on everything I could find it worked.
    What can I do if this happens again? Anybody know what setting that involves?

    On the right side of the Import screen, there's a heading "Apply during import". (If it doesn't show, right-click on the panel on the right and choose it from the menu.) One of its sub-fields is Metadata. That field and the Keywords field below it, I think are "sticky". You need to make sure that they contain the metadata that you want applied in your current import.
    It's almost always a bad idea to delete your catalogue or re-import images. Both those things fall at the very end of possible remedies because they cost you a lot of work, and there are almost always cheaper ways of solving your problem.

  • Moving LR5 catalog (Irdata & Ircat) to a new hard drive and photos. Lost all meta data - How do I move meta data along with catalog?

    I moved LR5 catalog (Irdata & Ircat) to a new hard drive and photos. Lost all meta data - How do I move meta data along with catalog?
    The meta data for each image is missing.
    I have over 2,000 images. I don't want to go back through each image and add meta data.
    Is there some way to move everything?

    No, do not re-import your images. I assume you can see the thumbnails in the library module, just cannot access the full images, right? If this is the case there should be an exclamation mark in the top right corner of every one of your pictures and you only have to tell LR where the images are now.
    Click the exclamation mark of one of the images and a dialog window should pop-up, telling you that LR cannot find the file, but with an option to locate it. Press "Locate" and navigate to the folder on your new HD where the file is. If in the new external HD you kept the same folder structure that you had on the internal disk, LR will be able to find all your images and re-link them to the database without further intervention.

  • Dynamically how to get the meta data of an ui element which is custom one

    Hi All ,
    In SRM , I want to know the meta data declarations of an UI element in my webdynpro component  ..How to know this ..Can anyone help me in this ..I want to know the meta data of an ui element .
    Sandeep

    You really aren't supposed to read the properties of active UI elements directly.  Instead they should be bound to context attributes and then you read these attributes via normal context APIs.  If you absolutely needed such access because this is a standard SAP WD, then consider that the WDDOMODIFYVIEW is the only part of th event loop where you are allowed access to the View and its UI elements.

  • How can i get the meta data from database?

    Hi, all java and db experts,
    I need to write a tool to generate java file which will be used to hold the resultset of a stored procedure of Oracle. Is there any API call or tools to connect to db and then get the meta data of the return cursor instead of reading stored procedure definition on my own?
    Please help, thanks a lot.
    Hanna

    if i execute a Oracle stored procedure, the resultset of a cursor is returned. It's easy to know the meta data at the runtime.
    However, could i get the meta data about the resultset of a cursor before runtime? Such as by connecting to the database and ask it about meta data of a specified stored procedure?
    Is it feasible?
    DatabaseMetaData dbmd = conn.getMetaData();
    ResultSet rs = dbmd.getProcedureColumns("", "%", "SP_NAME", "%");
    while (rs.next()) {
    String colName = rs.getString(4);
    int colType = rs.getInt(5);
    int colDataType = rs.getInt(6);
    int colPrecision = rs.getInt(8);
    int colLen = rs.getInt(9);
    int colScale = rs.getInt(10);
    long defaultValue = rs.getLong(11);
    But what i get is a list of stored procedure parameters. In oracle, cursor is IN OUT parameter . How can i get the meta data about the resultset of cursor?

  • How to extract meta data of documents from SAP R/3

    dear all,
    i`am working in aproject where we connect the documents for SAP R/3 applications.we maintain our own repository for that purpose.it may be in bound or out bound according to customer needs.the meata data related to the documents is stored in SAP.our requirement now is to have that metadata available in our repository .can any one guide me how to write ABAP code for extracting meata data from SAP and enable even nonSAP users to have the access for the documents.
    thanks in advance
    ravi

    Hi,
    One way to do this is probably set a connection between SAP Database and an external database and store the meta data into external database from where a non-sap user will have an eccess to the data.
    Steps required are :
    1. we have to involve basis team also in that.
    2. they will make one entry
    in DBCON table
    (that entry will point to secondary database/external database)
    (suppose the name of this secondary connection is HRCON)
    3. Also they will make connection string
    in application server.
    4. After that,
    we should have
    the table definition in SAP dd dictionary
    and also
    the same defintion
    in the external database. 
    5. now in abap code,
    we have to use like this.
    DATA: mydbcon(30) TYPE c.
    mydbcon = 'HRCON'.
    INSERT ydev_msg_cur CONNECTION (mydbcon)
    FROM msg_cur .
