PM DNG star rating not showing in Bridge
« on: March 26, 2009, 08:39:07 AM »
I am evaluating PM 4.6. Changing the star rating on a DNG in PM doe not show in Bridge. Changing the star rating on a DNG in Bridge immediately shows up in PM.

With .CR2's, star rating changes shows both ways.

Is there a setting for the DNG that I need to make?

In the Files tab of the Photo Mechanic Preferences dialog, make sure you have the setting "Add tag, color class, and rating to IPTC/XMP:" set to "For all photos"
In the IPTC/XMP tab, make sure you have the reading of JPEG, TIFF, PSD, DNG photos to "Read embedded XMP before IPTC" and the writing of JPEG, TIFF, PSD, DNG photos set to "Add both embedded IPTC and IPTC4XMP"

Also, get the 4.6.1 beta from the Announcements section of the forums.
