Why doesn't Lightroom 4 create xmp files for mov files?

This would be useful for moving files to other applications and databases. As far as I can tell Adobe doesn't share any metadata for .mov files between any of it's CS6 programs either, Bridge, Prelude, Premiere, etc. As a still photographer who is now shooting DSLR video I want to get metadata entered as soon as possible for my still and video files. It would be best to do both stills and video at the same time. Camera Bits Photo Mechanic is the only program I've found so far that does this. Canto Cumulus is able to read Photo Mechanic's xmp files. I don't really need Photo Mechanic in my workflow except for this issue.

Familiarize yourself with this table
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
The Olympus E-P5 was first supported by Lightroom 5.
There is no backward compatibility with Lightroom 4.
So your choices:
Upgrade to Lightroom 5
Download the free DNG converter, convert all the Raw files from the E-P5 to DNGs then edit the DNGs in Lightroom 4

  • XMP Schema for WAV files

    Hi,
    I am planning to use XMP metadata for WAV files and I would like to create a Schema for the same. I know that that XMP has schemas for other Formats like TIFF and EXIF. If there is a XMP schema for WAV already(probably the Adobe Audition uses it), I would like to use it; else, I have to create a custom XMP WAV schema.

    Greetings,
    Since a WAVE file is actually a simple RIFF file format, I think it should fit into my proposal for embedding XMP data in RIFF files (I already posted it somewhere else in this forum). (For WAVE schemas, thats another story)...
    p.s: I have not had any comment from Adobe on this proposal, either they don't read this forum or they don't care...
    Comments?
    I have the same proposal for IFF files (AIFF/ILBM etc) if you wish to have it?
    Here follows the specification:
    Embedding XMP data into IBM-Microsoft RIFF file formats
    =====================================================================
    This proposal permits adding XMP compatible metadata to standard
    RIFF files. A RIFF file is composed of chunks of data; each of
    the chunks precedeed by a header giving the type of data that
    follows, as well as the length of the data in the chunk. For
    more information on the RIFF file format, consult the specification
    "Multimedia Programming Interface and Data Specifications 1.0"
    Including XMP data in an RIFF compatible file is a matter
    of adding a subchunk to the INFO LIST chunk. The subchunk
    ID for this type of date shall be "IXMP".
    Guidelines for RIFF writers
    If the XMP packet is to be used, the software can optionally
    write out all other INFO LIST registered (from the standard),
    assuming the following mapping:
    IRSC dc:creator
    ICRD dc:date
    ICMT dc:description
    ICOP dc:rights
    IKEY dc:subject
    INAM dc:title
    IGNR dc:type
    IARL dex:source
    In the case where they are written, for better validation by reader
    software, the XMP packet should also contain the xmp:MetadataDate
    property.
    For better portability, and to easily modify the embedded
    XMP data, the following guidelines should be followed by
    the RIFF writer:
    - The XMP packet should contain the full packet signature;
    this permits easier searching for tools that do not
    understand the RIFF file format.
    - The XMP packet should be encoded in UTF-8.
    - As specified in the XMP specification, an XMP packet
    should be filled with blank spaces for easier updating of
    the XMP packet without rewriting the entire file.
    A suggested size of an XMP chunk is 4096 or 8192 bytes.
    - Only one "IXMP" chunk should be present in the INFO LIST
    chunk. Preferrably, there should only be one INFO LIST
    chunk per file.
    Guidelines for RIFF readers
    If an XMP packet is present in an RIFF file, then one of
    the following options can be used to retrieve the
    metadata from the file:
    If the existing metadata chunks are also present,
    then, one of the following solutions can be used:
    a) Compare the xmp:MetadataDate property with the
    file modification date to determine which chunk to use
    : either the IXMP subchink or the other info subchunks.
    (If the file modification date is greater than
    xmp:MetadataDate, it is probably safe to assume that
    the standard metadata chunks might have been updated
    by software that does not
    understand XMP packets).
    b) Simply ignore these chunks and use the XMP
    packet for the metadata.
    c) Simply ignore the XMP chunk , and use the
    other chunks for getting the metadata of the file.

  • Why doesn't Lightroom Launch?

    Why doesn't Lightroom launch after the download completes? It loaded fine, but the "Launch App" is "grayed out."

    Which operating system are you using?  Have you tried launching it using the normal means for your operating system as opposed to the Adobe Application Manager?

  • Aperture 3.1.2 When exporting files to Finder is creating a folder for each file, that means export 200 files is creating 200 folders for each files. Does anyone knows how to fix this. Thanks

    Aperture 3.1.2 When exporting files to Finder is creating a folder for each file, that means export 200 files is creating 200 folders for each files. Does anyone knows how to fix this. Thanks

    No. This is NOT true. I've been battling with this for a couple hours.
    I choose Export>Versions
    choose
    Subfolder Format: Project Name
    no custom subfolder
    Name Format: Current Version Name.
    Aperture creates project folders for each image and names them Projects1, Projects2, Projects3 etc.
    To be sure, I have no project named Projects
    x
    This particular Aperture library has 16 projects. you can see in the screen grab it's created more than 30 folders
    If I uncheck the Subfolder, that is say NONE, I just get images and images and images, not in their project folders (of course, because I've said NONE, so why would it put them in project folders?)
    I just want to export the entire library and have the versions placed in folders named by the projects from which they came.... ez enough, no?

  • How to create search path for the file on the desktop..

          I have used gui_upload module to upload the data from flatfile to the internal table, in that how can i create search path for the file selection in the selection screen, also please help me the code to update the ztable.
    thanks

    HI
      If iam not wrong you want to select a file from a location that you don't know so if this is ur problem then use the function module
    F4_FILENAME
    this FM helps to locate and select the desired file from the system.
    Sample code that you can check is
    How to get windows filename
    PARAMETERS: lv_file LIKE rlgrap-filename.
    Method 1
        CALL FUNCTION u2019KD_GET_FILENAME_ON_F4u2019
        EXPORTING
        MASK = u2019,.txt,.*u2019
        STATIC = u2019Xu2019
        CHANGING
        FILE_NAME = LV_FILE.
    Method 2
    CALL FUNCTION u2019F4_FILENAMEu2019
    EXPORTING
             program_name = syst-cprog

  • "Bridge is unable to create a JPG for this file"

    Some of my exports to Flickr fail with this message. These a larger file but within flickr limits. Does anyone know what are the limitations set by bridge.

    I am having the same problem.
    It worked perfectly until about 6 weeks ago. Then I started getting the error message.  If I selected the images from the exact same directory and dropped them on the export tab, they would usually work.  Also if I took 5 or less images, It would usually work, so I don't hink there is any problem with the directoiry or the files.
    I have reinstalled brif=deg and photoshop.  it is now CS5.1 and all was stable. for a week and now I am having the problem that Bridge is unable to create a jpg for this file.  
    Previously, I did not notice that erroe message, so I could have been having some other error, but now this is the one I am having.  I am not trying to change the size of these images.  Just convert from nef and photoshop to jpeg.

  • Why does not Lightroom allow me to import RAW files from my Canon 5D Mark III?

    Why does not Lightroom allow me to import RAW files from my Canon 5D Mark III?
    Error message that it does not support cr. file

    Which version of Lightroom?
    As Hal points out, if it's pre v 4.1, you can't expect an old version of the software to know what to do with a camera that didn't even exist when the software was released.
    Given how many times a day this same issue comes up, maybe it's time Adobe changed the error message to something like "your camera is too old to be supported by this version of Lightroom. Please upgrade" or similar...

  • Why we r not Creating Sender Agreement For HTTP & IDOc Adapter at Sender .

    Hi Buddy's,
                         Why we r not Creating Sender Agreement For HTTP & IDOc Adapter at Sender .And why we create receiver agreements at receiver side bt not sender agreement at sender side.
    Wat Is GLOBAL Container ?, where it will Occur & wat is the functionality of that.

    Kumar,
    1) XI integrattion server - IS expects the messages in XML format. If you see the HTTP request you will see that we pass all the info contained in the Sender areement in the the HTTP request itself , namely - Message interface, message type and the namespace (along with login parameters). For IDOCs the the IDOC- XML are are sent to the IS (through IDOC port configuration at the source system.
    2) When send a message to XI the sender knows that XI system parameters, but when at the reciver end there could be any any system that is reciving the IDOc/HTTTp message. you specify those message through a commumication channel and this channel is associated to a receiver agreement.
    3) A Global container is like a place holder for variables. You can set a variable here and access it throughout your mapping and hence the name.
    A good example for a gloabal container is a counter to countthe number of records in te target side.

  • Bridge Export: "Unable to create a jpg for this file"

    Every now and then when I attempt to "Export" a jpg from Bridge (typically to reduce the image size for web posting), I get a little exclamation point, and then when you click on the file name I get a message telling me that Bridge is unable to create a jpg for this file...
    The interesting thing is that all pics in the folder have the same problem (ie, it seems to be a folder issue, not an issue with an individual file).
    If I copy all the pics to another folder, the export works fine.  (Obviously this is not a desired solution.)
    Thanks in advance!

    Why doesn't iTunes add protected MPEG-4 audio files to its music library?  I copied these files to my iMac from an old PC laptop that no longer has internet access.

    After downloading via iTunes, I move MP3 files from the default iTunes podcast folder to another folder (on an a external disk), I also change the name of the file and I change some MP3-tags.
    You download from the iTunes store, delete the podcast, mess with it, move it around, rename it, change the tags then try to add it back to iTunes?

    In iTunes, right click - get info, click the Options tab and set *Media Kind:* to Music.

  • Resolution for .mov files for film festivals

    Some film festivals are asking for .mov files for screenings. Nowhere can I find what type or resolution they want or if there's an industry standard.
    I have seen that if they play it back from a laptop (and you never know) that too high a resolution won't work.
    Is there a standard for movie theaters?
    Thanks.

    Yes and No
    DCP is a worldwide, digital delivery standard for commercial theaters. But, by standards, is for example 'limited' to 24fps - sad news, for Mr P. Jackson or J.Cameron (no idea, how HFR nor 3D is delivered…)
    highly complex to encode, there are specialized companies offering 'transfer services' - $$$, creates enormous files (an intra-compression codec), asks for 'Linux formatted/ext2'-drives, etc etc etc ,.. . (just read about it - no clue what I'm talking about!!)
    Plan B)
    ask the theatre what they want …or use.
    Plan C)
    1080/24p, h.264/high profile/20mbps in a mp4 should be very universal … (who asks for mov can playback mp4 too)
    … but then, next question:
    What media? stick, dataDisk, hard drive, ftp-upload?
    What format? fat32 (doesn't work for longer movies…), exFat, ntfs??
    some non-commercial festivals allow/prefer delivery by BluRay or even on DVD ...
    again, 'limited' too, but very, very universal …
