Metadata & Timecode Burn-in FX future update to allow XMP tags for City, State, CountryOpen for Voting

I have been attempting to use this effect to display Metadata burnt into the video; Specificaly, I had the EXIF tool wrote Metadata into the source Media for location and recorded/created date.   I think there is a bug in the effect;  many fields, will not display in the program monitor, despite there being clear data one can view, and even edit in the project window;   This is the effect setting: (Description will appear Line 1, But Line 2 data will not)   The Project window you can clearly see that there is Data in the Tape Name Field:   The program monitor will properly display Line 1, Description.  But many other fields despite being visable in the project metadata viewer will not display/burn in on the program monitor.   Can someone please advise if I am doign this wrong,  or if this is a bug thats repeatable for others?   Adobe Premier 25.3 Windows 11 Pro For Workstations 24H2 Nvidia 3090 Studio Drivers   Source Material is Iphone footage.  Metadata has been written/updated with EXIFTOOL; Here is a sample, its not for the exact same clip shown above, but the same data was written the same way to 141 files, I was just lazy to match up the exact same file, but I assure you this happens on all 141 clips.   Also;  fields like "comment" also do not burnin, and are blank when used in Premier pro - that would be my ideal field to use,  but I am looking for any field I could use right now to allow me to show creation date of the clip as a seperate field from The geolocated data that appears in "description" now.     I am at a loss as to why this is not working, I have created multip projects, and restarted with new clips with clean metadata, and also manualy entered the metadata into the project metadata viewer.  No matter how, many fields such as comment, tapename and others do not get burnt into the video.  Decription for example works on any line, all the ones that dont work, also dont work on any line within the metadata viewer effect.   I have been tinkerign with this for hours now and I think I have figured out whats going on.  It seems that if you update the Metadata with the EXIFTOOL After you import the files, its hit/miss if the Metadata is properly processed.  It seems that you have to have all the metadata updated to the clip prior to importing the clips, or it will not work properly, often the metadata is visable in the project metadata viewer, but will not work for the burn in.  Sometimes Premier doesnt refreash the metadata from the file, and its not visable anywhere.  Even if you close the project and open it again   I also tried creating a new project after all the metadata was applied, and for smaller projects (line 15 clips) the import process works flawless and I can get "description" and "log Notes" to both work;  However in imports with more files, my sample was 141 clips,  most of the clips fail to have have the metadata appear.   This might have something to do with the background process I have enabled for transcrips and media idetification.  I will try at some point to turn those off and import the same sampel set of 141 clips to see if the same issue persists.   Basicaly,  there is some unpredicale behavior with the metadata after its imported.  There are times where I can update the Metadata, and literaly see the "generating peaks" appear for the clips that are imported, and the new metadata that was written by Exiftool becomes visabl ein premier project fields,  but it will not allow the burnin effect to read and display them.    The onyl way to get it to work was to create a clean new project, and then it worked - expect for the potential inteference of the background processes with more than half of the 141 clips I am testing with.   Any advice would be welcome.

Keyframe buttons still overlapping value fields in Effect ControlsOpen for Voting

In the Effect Controls panel the keyframe navigation buttons still overlap with the value fields (like Position, Scale, etc.), making the buttons nearly unclickable without resizing the panel. Despite it appearing to be a relatively easy issue to fix, it has persisted through at least a decade of Premiere updates and there are no signs of it changing anytime soon. However, with the increased focus on UI in recent updates, I'm hoping this is a good time to shed some light on the issue.  (appologies for the flickering in the gifs below) This is what I'm referring to: The image below is the minimum possible width the panel must be in order to click all three keyframe buttons: In order to view more of the timeline portion of the panel while still being able to click the keyframe buttons, the Effect Controls panel as a whole ends up taking quite a lot of realestate:  This is obviously not a critical issue and there are many ways to work around it or avoid it, but this doesn't mean it should never be fixed. I have spent many years in this program, and my workflows, shortcuts, and layouts are ever evolving and changing. But this is one issue that I still find myself running into consistently. These keyframe navigation buttons are simply the most obvious, intuitive, and natural way to skip ahead to the next keyframe, and it would be nice to finally see a simple fix to such a long lasting UI issue. 

Clip duration indicator on object in timelineOpen for Voting

Hi all,I've been editing mostly multi-cam footage in Premiere Pro and I'm always finding ways to optimize my workflow. When I want to see the lenght of a clip that was edited by multi-cam or just any clip, I need to hover over the timeline object (clip). This is not a hard or tedious thing to do, but the latency of waiting for the info to show if I want to check all the clips in the timeline makes up to considerable time.My proposal or question (if there's a plugin that could do this):Having a dynamic indicator after recording multi-cam position/value in the corner of the clip on the timeline. Similar to the indicator when a clip is out of sync, but maybe using a different corner of the clip and/or colour. Hopefully I explained the idea well. This would be very useful for other edit scenarios like music videos or any kind of geometrical or mathematical approach to editing where seeing the lenght of the clip is important either to match frames with other clips, match audio of certain lenght with clips or just editing by time for any kind of geometrical layout. Maybe it's a far fetched comparison, but similar to the way some composers composed their music. In a specific case, when a studio implements rules for editing like "no single shot should be shorter than 3 seconds" this would be an useful way to be able to glance across the timeline clips and see if any is not too short. Additional improvements on this system would be something like an ability to set scenarios in which the clip duration indicator would show in different colors depending on parameters, or so it would show up JUST if the clip matches/does not match given parameters in the settings. Last behaviour is similar to the out of sync indicator which shows only when synced clips have been moved. I attached a mockup how I imagine this would look on a single clip where in 15:19 it indicates 15s19f, so if a clip is longer than one minute it would show for example 1:15:19 as 1m15s19f Thanks in advance for your support and any community feedback on this idea.Matija
