22.2 Movie Metadata

Just like photos, movie files can contain a lot of helpful metadata. And NeoFinder of course is able to read this for you during cataloging, and makes it all available during display and for Finding.

You can use tools such as Adobe Bridge to add this extra data to your movie files. Just view the movie file with Bridge, and type in all the textual fields you need and want:

Yes, the user interface of Adobe Bridge is not very nice, and Bridge is quite slow.

So why not simply use the powerful XMP editor in NeoFinder?

More metadata with Subler.app

NeoFinder also supports metadata written to video files by the venerable
Subler.app. This cool app allows you to add all kinds of interesting movie metadata more or less automatically, including cover art:
