Why not Lightroom support XMP?

XMP is supported by a large number of Adobe products. So far I have no idea, why XMP is not taken in charge by Lightroom. E. g. in this thread is mentioned, "you cannot view XMP files in LR. You can read the data on their part and can write data on them, but never see them in LR. "Anyone know why this is the case?

I am aware of the files xmp "sidecar" and the meaning of them. Lightroom can use to let other applications to see what Lightroom did with the file. My concerns are caused by another question: what is a workflow to add for example a formatted xmp statement of copyright (created by bridge) to an imgage file? Should I add the xmp file of the copyright for the file exported raw or JPEG?

Try this. In Bridge, apply the declaration of copyright to an image and then import this image in Lightroom, ensure that no model of metadata is displayed in the import dialog box. Then save a new metadata preset, then you can apply it to other original.

If the image is already in Lr, save metadata in the file, then go to the bridge and apply the copyright model and then use the metadata > read metadata. You can then create the preset metadata.

  • Why not Lightroom 5 import my raw files?

    I recently bought a Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS50. When I imported to LR, I had no problem, but now I get the messaged that this file is not recognized by the program of raw support in LR. Any ideas?

    First of all, your camera has been supported in Lightroom 6.0. There will be no update 5 Lightroom that will provide support for your camera. You will need to switch to Lightroom 6, or download and use the free DNG Converter to create copies DNG that you can use with Lightroom 5.

  • Why not Lightroom organizes photos and videos is missing 'date taken' by 'date modified' instead of 'creation date '?

    It always seems to be a problem with Lightroom 5. This post is one of the first results, after trying to Google this problem, and it's for LR3. I don't understand why something so basic to some photos (and video) Organization has been neglected for so long.

    I tried to import and organize all my old photos and videos by date with LR5. They have been backed up and copied several times over the years, most recently on an external drive last week. Thus, each file has a 'creation date' last week. But 'change' is the date recorded.

    It's not bad for pictures with a good EXIF "date taken" - but LR5 resembles the "creation date" for videos, making it completely useless to organize them into folders based on date. He puts videos I recorded in 2010 (in accordance with the "modification date") in a case 2014-12. Why.

    It is not only a video problem - some pictures that I took with devices that does not record date "EXIF taken" are also filed in folders of this month even if the 'update' on them is correct as is 5 years.

    How can I count on LR5 organization importing and based on the date when it is based on the files (lack of "date taken") having never been copied or backed up?

    It has been at least partially fixed in LR 5.5, for images: Lightroom: the dates do not match for the missing files metadata date/time.  But I just tested import a .avi in LR 5.7 / Windows 8.1 and the date below the thumbnail in the grid has been the time of last modification of the file system, while the Date of Capture in the metadata Panel has been set at the time of importation.

    I started a new topic in the Adobe official feedback forum: Lightroom: capture still inconsistent date/time for videos. Please add your vote and review on it.

  • Why not Lightroom download all of my photos in a folder?

    I use a Mac, when I click on the 'get info' for a particular file, I said there are 2124 photos. When I select this exact file to import into lightroom, only 1702 photos are imported? How is that possible? I'm missing 422 photos in lightroom? Please help, its super frustrating!

    If your camera is set to shoot Raw + Jpeg LR will usually deal with the jpeg as a file. You can change the preferences. Reach:

    Lightroom > preferences > general (tab)

    Put a check mark against jpegs to treat as separate files.

  • Why 6 Lightroom does not matter the keywords in the XMP from previous versions?

    In previous versions of LR from Lightroom (1, Lightroom 2 and, above all, Lightroom 3, 4 and 5 of Lightroom Lightroom) I made sure that my changes are written to the XMP file on and images.

    This allows me to receive a file froms someone else generally, or send one of my files to someone else and the changes, keywords, etc. will be in the DNG file.

    When you import an image (or a folder of images) a disk hard having keywords in the XMP of DNG file, these keywords are lost when importing to Lightroom 6.

    If I export as catalog from an earlier version, and then import into the catalog Lightroom 6, key words are there.

    But the point with XMP should be that changes and keywords are in the file and is not lost.

    So why not Lightroom 6 see and import them?

    I imported a file and supposed to apply any metadata during import (which contains only Copyright information).  This has actually imported stars, colours, changes, IPTC, keywords, EXIF as it should.

    Rely on the observation of mcucinat, the preset selected metadata to apply when importing is clearing the fields.  Make sure that you don't have a check mark next to one of the fields in the preset:

    A common mistake is to have the check mark on an empty field - which will Erase the field when you import the pic.

  • Sides of the picture not read the XMPs after scanning of metadata updates

    Hello

    I have problems with LR CC 2015.0.1 on Windows 7 SP1.

    Summary:

    When you scan for metadata updates, everything from the XMP files is loaded correctly with the exception of the coast star image. (color and development settings labels are loaded properly)

    This applies only to a specific set of images. Tests on other examples of images working correctly!

    This is my workflow:

    • I copied a set of images (a folder with 3 subfolders) to my PC and Mac
    • I gave the coast star photomechanical 5 on Mac
    • I imported all the photos into Lightroom CC on both computers (both computers are running the latest versions and patches of LR and Win 7 and OS X respectively)
    • In LR, I modified develop more refined image sides and settings on Mac
    • I saved the metadata of images
    • I took the XMPs and their transfer to PC
    • I scanned for LR metadata changes
    • LR properly imported him develop settings and color labels, but doesn't import the image sides

    I transferred XMPs three times just to be sure, but nothing has worked. I also gave notes directly on the PC and then replaced the XMP files with Mac. This reset completely all ratings to zero. He didn't ignore them (leave 2-star) - he acted as if she was reading 0 star ratings of XMPs.

    I also opened XMPs from Mac to check their contents, and of course, they contain all of the correct sides. I will paste only the beginning of a such XMP here:

    ...


    If the data is clearly there.

    To check the question, I took another series of images and performed the same test (skip the photomechanical sides and using only LR) and everything worked properly. The sides have been read after scanning of metadata updates.

    Which is perhaps the reason why LR CC will not read only the sides of a particular set of images? If the initial assessments of photomechanical somehow interfere with this process? I must emphasize that LR Mac reads correctly the photomechanical sides. I also repeat that the significance of the notes have been fine-tuned in LR after importation.

    How to fix? I wouldn't have to manually re-enter hundreds of sides.

    Thank you!

    I have more understanding of what's going on:

    The .cr2 and .xmp files contain sides:

    . CR2: side = 0

    . XMP: side = 2

    I have not found any specification of how this is handled, but I infer that it is treated in a manner similar to that recommended by the metadata working group to resolve the differences between the IPTC metadata embedded in a file and also stored in an .xmp sidecar.  I think here is this line in the .xmp file:

    Photoshop:EmbeddedXMPDigest = "EE74E1C6A44E10D4CAC648FE110E243E".

    is supposed to represent a Digital Digest (a checksum) of the content of the XMP metadata in the .cr2 files.  However, it does not match the checksum of the current contents of the file .cr2, XMP LR says, "Ah, it is necessary that the person changed the XMP in the file after .cr2 this .xmp sidecar was created."  So if I see a field of XMP metadata that is at once in the .cr2 and the .xmp, I prefer the value in the .cr2, since it must be more recent. "So, LR uses the notation = 0 the .cr2 rather than the .xmp.    Change the digest in "AD0ACF660F79AC49FD004B2DD3BC0461" causes LR read the note of .xmp sidecar.

    The XMP embedded in the .cr2 sample does not contain the usual what program added side = 0 audit trail, so I can't help you there.   But he added at some point.

    One way to solve this problem is to use the Exiftool free to remove all your .cr2 files note:

    ExifTool - xmp: side = *. CR2

    ExifTool will automatically backup copies of all files, it modifies, in case something goes wrong.  (But Exiftool is extremely robust, even with large manufacturers raw files.)
