插件功能


Import metadata

Adobe Premiere Pro will usually ignore some columns in your ALE files that may contain valuable information for your editing process. This plugin ensures that all metadata columns are imported and displayed. This is particularly useful when additional information is provided in columns for VFX or archive footage processes.



Merge metadata

If you already have clips in Premiere Pro, but some metadata columns are missing, you can merge information from your ALE files to access all the metadata columns inside your project.



Update ALE files

If you are missing columns in your ALE file and want to merge information added in Premiere Pro, you can also use this plug-in to update existing .ale files.



Exchange Metadata with other tools

This plugin is a great addition to workflows with other tools, such as our Archive Production Manager to import metadata from Archive Producers such as clip prices, licenses, archive names or copyright information.

This plugin is also available for purchase from the official Adobe Exchange Store.
