Anyone else having issues with copy or sync metadata from one video to another video in Lightroom? It's worked before, but the last couple of updates this hasn't worked. I've made sure that everything is check on the copy window the comes up when you select Copy Metadata, but when I paste, nothing is pasted and it erases anything that was already there. It seems to work with photos, it's only videos that Copy MetaData is not working.

Hmm, I observe the same thing.  In LR 8.4.1, I'm unable to use Metadata > Copy Metadata to copy the caption field from one video to another.   But I am able to do that in LR 2015.14 (6.14).

 

I recommend you post a bug report in the official Adobe feedback forum, where Adobe wants all bug reports:

https://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/categories/photoshop_family_photoshop_lightroom

 

Be sure to include a precise step-by-step recipe of how to reproduce the bug, along with the first ten lines of Help > System Info.  Otherwise, Adobe is much less likely to pay attention.
