LR 4.1 stars not coming back to PM 4.6.9

[andycollings]

I am shooting with the 5D3 on my MacPro 5,1 running 10.7.3

I ingest in the new 469 beta and apply my star ratings to the CR2/xmp files. I apply color correction in Lightroom 4.1RC and then export JPEGs. The jpegs get my keywords and other IPTC info but not the ratings.

Do you have PM set to read XMP before IPTC on JPEG, TIFF, and PSD files?

I had it set to IPTC before XMP, then after reading your message decided to try the other way. Caused PM to crash immediately (folder of jpegs was displayed at time). I reopened it, checked that it was now set to XMP before IPTC and tried again, same issue of no stars.

Can you post a sample JPEG with updated ratings?

Sure thing Kirk. But which way is PM supposed to be set up: IPTC before XMP or XP before IPTC?

XMP should be read before IPTC.  IPTC data doesn't contain labels or ratings.

That was the issue Kirk. Sorry for not realizing yesterday. Thanks for your help as always!

Andy,

You're welcome.  But I'm a bit confused as yesterday you mentioned that you made the change and it didn't help?

But now it does?
