Where's my metadata in a video?  Lightroom adjustments not transferred to CS6?

I've shot some video clips with DSLRs, and imported into Lightroom4 along with my stills, with normal Import metadata applied.  All looks good in LR. 
Videos are generated as .MOV files.
If I open a video in Photoshop CS6, and look at File Info, there is nothing there, not even camera info let alone the LR import preset with copyright info etc., nor the keywords and caption that I added in LR?  Metadata for videos is also  blank if I look at the file with Bridge. 
Metadata for stills (including what was added in LR) is visible in both PS File Info and in Bridge.
Why doesn't PS or Bridge see any metadata for the video files? 
Separate problem, although perhaps related, is that I made some develop edits to the video in LR (using capture frame, develop, save as preset, then apply preset to the video file).  All looks good in LR, as well as exported files.  However, if I want to use enhanced capability in CS6, there is no "edit in" available as there is with stills.  If I open the video directly in CS6, none of the edits show; I get the as-shot file (which I can understand).  Is there any way to open the video in CS6 with LR edits applied?  At least be presented the option of doing this or opening the as-shot file?  If I open the file in Corel's Video Studio Pro, the LR adjustments are there (clipped to length and colour and tonal adjustments applied).  Why can't I do the same in CS6 if I want?
thanks

This is strange!
Just did a test with a .mov and could add metadata in Bridge, once it was opened in Photoshop, Photoshop could not see the metadata.
With the mov in Photoshop it is possible to get the metadata information via a script, so it does look as if there is a problem with Photoshop.
If you want to test this, paste the following code into ExtendScript Toolkit and run it.
It should dump all the metadata to the JavaScript Console in ExtendScript Toolkit.
#target photoshop
main();
function main(){
if(!documents.length) return;
if (ExternalObject.AdobeXMPScript == undefined)  ExternalObject.AdobeXMPScript = new ExternalObject("lib:AdobeXMPScript");
var file = activeDocument.fullName;
var xmpf = new XMPFile( file.fsName, XMPConst.UNKNOWN, XMPConst.OPEN_FOR_READ );
var xmp = xmpf.getXMP();
$.writeln(xmp.dumpObject());

  • Aperture library to lightroom plugin not transfering all photos or projects.

    I am trying to use the recent aperture import plug in added to LR5.  Many of my projects and photos are failing transfer stating "(Possible reasons include asset offline or unsupported asset type.)" I cannot find the difference of the failed jpegs, NEFs, from the others which tranfered.  Any help, suggestions??

    No, no, no.  Can't believe they still don't understand the plugin after all this time.  Adobe support is abysmal.  And you pay a subscription fee!
    The plug-in is a great alternative, but it does have issues.  And the most important steps for migration need to be done in Aperture, which may explain their skills gap.
    See this post for a partial explanation.
    How did your migration to Adobe Lightroom go?
    The key to NOT running out of disk space is to relocate your images from "managed" status to "referenced".  You can specify a better folder structure for your resulting Lightroom library.  Be aware that you will need some overhead, as your Aperture library (metadata) takes space, as your Lightroom catalog will, too.  But migrating "managed" Aperture images results in a full copy.
    There's other considerations for Aperture previews.  Although much smaller, all previews "should" be copied.  I've actually found that the plugin fails to copy a majority of previews.
    Lightroom will copy managed raw files, but will just point to referenced raw files.  If you choose to copy previews, it will copy all previews.  Not much to the plugin, but it helps to know to pre-tag images in Aperture, and make sure you do some sort of file-level compare to make sure everything is copied over.  I've made several posts on these issues under "Photo Enthusiast" in this forum.

  • Lightroom adjustments not importing into photoshop

    I have edited dng images in lightroom 3.2. I have selected lens profiles to correct vignetting. When I click open in Photoshop CS4, all the edits except the lens profile corrections export to Photoshop. The lens vignetting returns. Is there a setting somewhere that I can correct so that all editing in lightroom is reflected in Photoshop CS4. Has anyone else experienced this?
    In addiion, is it possible to have a trial version of Photoshop CS5 and Photoshop CS5 installed at the same time.
    Jim

    Hi Jeff,
    Thanks for the link. Before I got the link, I downloaded a trial version of Photoshop CS5. This fixed the problem. However, as a CS4 bug I also tested this with CS4 as a second edit-in preference in Lightroom. This also worked, however I am not sure that this was a valid test. Once I downloaded CS5, it became the default editor and there appears to be no way to remove it as the default editor without uninstalling.
    Please note that when editing in Photoshop that the resulting psd (I have not tested other formats) imported back into Lightroom is about a half-stop brighter. I noticed this before but never reported it as a bug. It would be nice to fix this before 3.3 is released.
    Is there any way that Lightroom will remain in the Edit module when doing a Compare. This drives me crazy. Many times you want to edit images by having them side by side with previous shoots or images that someone has sent you. Now it is constant bouncing back and forth.
    Thanks for the fast feedback.
    Jim
    By the way, what are you doing working on a Saturday

  • Lightroom 4 not communicating with CS6

    I just bought CS6 and now when I hit command "e" I can no longer export a picture directly from LR into CS6 to edit.  I can only export it and then open it in CS6 and then reimport into LR.... which defeats the purpose of having these programs work together.  I had spoken to Adobe last week and then sent me a link to download LR 4.2 and it worked for a few pictures and then stopped working!!

    Hi. Because the forum you originally posted in is for beginners trying to learn the basics of Photoshop, I moved your question to the Lightroom forum.

  • IPod Video - Album Artwork Not Transferring

    Does anyone know why when I move songs from iTunes to my iPod some of the album artwork comes over and some does not?

    I'll asume you're using iTunes 7. When you connect the iPod, it's screen shows up in iTunes. Click the music tab at the top of the screen. Then go to the bottom of the list (don't scroll through it) but below the list ther is a checkbox labled "Show Album Artwork." Make sure it's selected. If it is, make sure the song you want artwork for actually has artwork to show in iTunes.

  • How do i transfer a video back onto my iPhone in the Photo app where it originally was and can be shared from (NOT the video app)

    I have a video that i originally took using my iphone but then transfered to my PC.  I want to put it back onto my iPhone in the photo app (NOT video app) so i can share it straight from my phone. 
    Since one of the iphone updates enabled the volume button as a camera shutter button and i was shooting the video one handed, i held the camera with the volume buttons on top.  Unfortunatly, the phone still saves it in such a way that only the iphone and itunes recognize the proper orientation intended and when it's opened with any other device or program, it automatically makes the part of the video that's against the smooth side of the phone always the top side (regardless of if that makes the video sideways or upside down).  I was able to get the video back onto my phone as a "video" where it shows up in the video app as a "movie" and there are no options to share via text, email, youtube (which were options when the video was still in the photo app).  I need to be able to share the video with family

    Have you transferred photos from your computer to your iPhone which is selected under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes?
    If so, you can place this video in the folder of photos on your computer that is selected to be transferred to your iPhone via the iTunes sync process. Under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, select Include Videos.

  • I rented a movie on my iPad. It began to download but then it disappeared. The movie appears in my rented videos, but when I click it, it says, "video rented but not downloaded. Go to downloads to manage downloads". Where did my downloads go?

    I rented a movie on my iPad. It began to download but then it disappeared. I freed up a ton of storage space to make sure I had the room for it. The movie appears in my rented videos, but when I click it, it says, "video rented but not downloaded. Go to downloads to manage downloads". Where did my downloads go? I re-booted my iPad, signed off/on iTunes etc. I can't find a folder with downloadable items anywhere. ITunes just tells me, "you've already rented this video. Do you want to rent it again?" What happened to my movie?

    Did you check the Videos app?

  • Where are the edited files located in Lightroom?

    I want to be able to use my edited files in InDesign but the only way I know how to do it is to export them to a folder in the finder. This poses a couple of problems. For one it doubles the amount of disk space I use and perhaps more importantly it will not bring the changes I make in Lightroom over to InDesign. Does anyone know where Lightroom saves the edited files after they have been edited in Lightroom?

    I don't know InDesign, so your mileage may possibly vary, but I don't get involved in formal LR exports and imports when editing with other apps.  What I do when I need to use another editing app in addition to LR is right-click the image in LR and select Edit In... and pick the app I want to use.*
    I'm given three choices for the other app:  Edit a Copy With Lightroom Adjustments (the choice you want in your example), Edit Copy (start over, ignoring what I've done in Lightroom), Edit Original (ditto, but BZZT! not a great idea, to me at least).
    The file opens in the other app (and also in Lightroom, as a copy) in the default file format that app is set to use, such as .tif, assumed here.  I make the edits I want there, and then I Save the image again within that app.  That saves the app-edited .tif copy back to the Windows folder being used by Lightroom for the imported .dng Lightroom image files. Note also that there is now a second copy of the image that appears in the Lightroom filmstrip, adjacent to the right side of the .dng image, that is the .tif file and reflects all the edits in the other app. I can make further edits within Lightroom to the .tif (or to the .dng file without the app edits), but in the .tif file, I now can't undo any changes made before I saved in the other app.  Those edits, including the Lightroom edits before opening in the other app, have now become destructive edits in that .tif file.  (This is why I recommend working with a copy, not the original.)  If I need to undo something LR did before I went to the other app, I delete the .tif file and start over with the .dng.
    When I'm done editing from LR (I let LR manage the final edited copy), I can Export that .tif file with any additional edits LR made, Print from within LR, etc.
    *If you can't see the app you want to use when you select Edit In, go in LR to Edit>Preferences>External Editing tab, and under Additional External Editor, click the Choose button and navigate to the .exe file for the app you want to use.  You also set the file format and other preferences there. Save your new preference with the OK button, and right-clicking will bring the other app up in LR as an Edit In option.

  • Metadata changes in Lightroom are not reflected in Premiere Pro C

    Hello everyone. I am having trouble with my current workflow. I am shooting RAW with a Canon 7d using Magic Lantern. I use raw2cdng to transform the mlv(raw) files to cdng. I then use lightroom to color correct my DNG files. I use lightroom to save the new metadata info to my files. Those changes that I make are reflected in file explorer, but when I import the files to Premiere Pro using the MediaBrowser the color corrections that I made in lightroom are not being shown. What am I doing wrong? Why is Premiere Pro not reading my metadata info correctly? I appreciate all of your help.

  • Where are the MetaData Templates located in PS C6 on a Mac?

    Where are the MetaData Templates located in PS C6 on a Mac that you can add your contact and copyright information to?
    On a Windows machine they are located in Owner/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/XMP.  I have some templates that I want to copy from a Windows laptop over to a Macbook Pro.
    Thanks, Bill

    I’m on Mac OS 10.6.8 and there it seems to be

    I think as of OS 10.7 Macintosh hides the Library, but one can get there by alt-clicking the Go-menu and selecting it from there … or something.

  • Where's the metadata for STORE IN clause of a table with partition?

    Hi Experts,
    I created a table with a range-interval partition with STORE IN clause. It's definition:
    CREATE TABLE interval_part (
    person_id NUMBER(5) NOT NULL,
    first_name VARCHAR2(30),
    last_name VARCHAR2(30))
    PARTITION BY RANGE (person_id)
    INTERVAL (100) STORE IN (TSP_1, TSP_2, TSP_3) (
    PARTITION p1 VALUES LESS THAN (101))
    TABLESPACE TSP_1;
    I can not find the metadata for STORE IN clause in ALL_TAB_PARTITIONS, ALL_TABLES. Where is the metadata for the STORE IN clause? How can I find the tablespace list (TSP_1, TSP_2, TSP_3)?
    Thanks,
    David

    DBMS_METADATA.GET_DDL returns the definition of the table. But I just need the value of the tablespace list, for example, TSP_1, TSP_2, TSP_3. Is there any view which stored the value?
    Thanks,
    David

    Lightroom is not saving metadata. I have done several things to save and I still get the tag that states is is not saved. I have also created 2 smart collections. One showing metadata has been changed and one showing metadata is not up to date. No matter what I do it is not showing in LR that it is saved. I spent 2 days with Seth Resnick trying to correct this and we re created my catalog. It was ok, until I imported new images and same problem. Now I have a new problem, when I bring image to PS it saves it but does not bring back to LR. Am I the only one out there who has this problem?

  • How to change the date (metadata) of a video within the organizer ?

    Hello,
    From what I observe, when importing a video file produced by Premiere Elements in the Organizer (v12 or 13), the organizer gives it the current date. I can then change its date in the organizer.
    But... the organizer sets the new date in its database, but does NOT save it in the file itself (I have double checked). The result is that if, for instance, I then ask the organizer to update the video's thumbnail, the updated date is lost and automatically comes back to the import date, which is really weird.
    Question: is there any way to force the Organizer to update the date in the metadata of a video file ???
    Olivier

    Hi René, there is unfortunately no solution within Permiere Elements or the Organizer, and the recent 13.1 update didn't change anything. BTW I really wonder what that update did change, since I know a couple of other bugs that haven't been fixed, too. Well, actually, I should now know that Adobe never fixes bugs, they consider they are features. Anyway, I have found a turnaround to the problem. I have installed a small utility named "Attribute Changer" (www.petges.lu) that adds an option "Change file Properties" to the Windows Explorer. This utility allows me to change the creation and modification dates (you need to change both dates) of the videos BEFORE importing them into the Elements Organizer. And then everything works fine, forever. Olivier
