If that's the case, how do I get to the metadata Finder lists in the preview window? (I didn't know there were different sets of metadata.)

According to MetaDoctor support, software like theirs is meant to edit iTunes metadata. I'm now convinced that these are two sets of metadata.

There are also several fields in MetaDoctor that are not in Finder, like…Actors, Artist, Screenwriters, etc.Īnd fields in Finder that are not in MetaDoctor, like…Keywords, Movie Information, etc. Notice that the Finder metadata is named something different than the metadata listed in MetaDoctor.ĭescription Short Description & Long DescriptionĮncoding Software Encoding Tool & Encoded By Here is a screenshot of MetaDoctor and the fields it will let me affect (the field names are the same across the metadata editors I've tried). Here's what Finder let's me select for (what I thought were) metadata options to view. They are writing metadata somewhere, but it is not in the location that Finder looks when searching. I'm playing around with programs like MetaZ, Subler, MetaDoctor, etc. This time around, I'm looking for a way to write my notes into the metadata so the information lives with the file and won't be lost when I move the files from one computer to another or on and off cloud storage. Oh, and Adobe Bridge Keywords don't help either. Also, the keywords in the native Apple Photos app are specific to it. In my preliminary research, I discovered that the comments you enter in the Cmd-I popup window are specific to Finder. Now they are all gone and thousands of files need to be retagged. I didn't realize the Finder tags were specific to the computer. This worked great until I upgraded to a newer Mac. I assigned Finder tags to each file so I could easily locate what I needed with a simple Finder search. 08:50:37.I have lots of video files (.mov and. 08:50:37.561 MetaZ - Sending operationsFinished 08:50:27.360 MetaZ - Sent request to TheTVDB 08:50:27.297 MetaZ - Sending operationsFinished 08:50:27.297 MetaZ - mp4chaps stdout Duration 00:42:02.520įile '/Volumes/Jeff's Fault/iTunes Media Library/TV Shows/Krypton/.x264-KILLERS-appletv3.mp4 does not contain chapters of type QuickTime and Nero 08:50:27.230 MetaZ - Launch mp4chaps -l /Volumes/Jeff's Fault/iTunes Media Library/TV Shows/Krypton/.x264-KILLERS-appletv3.mp4
