Description marielle.simon42 2023-06-04 17:55:11 UTC 
Hello,

Video metadata is not copied to the source file while photo metadata is copied. Is it a software limit or a bad setting?
It would be interesting to integrate the management of metadata for videos such as photos. Is this possible ?

Best Regards,

In order for digiKam to write metadata in video files, writing with ExifTool must be activated in the digiKam metadata settings. Then metadata is written in XMP to the video files supported by ExifTool. Now comes the problem, Windows Explorer expects the metadata not in XMP, unlike with images, but with video files in a QuickTime container. We don't support that at the moment. Since we already have a bug report on this, the development process can be followed there.
