Missing XMP sidecar files

[Swamplander1]

My goal is to create an XMP with the markers from the source sequences (generated from Premiere) for additional processing. But I can't get AME to generate the XMP sidecar files when I render files out.

If I select my preset, then select Metadata to bring up the Metadata Export dialog, I have the Export Options: Create Sidecar File selected, but I never get an XMP file created. Preservation Rules = Preserve All, Export Master Speech Track & Sequence Markers is checked, and Export Template = All Metadata. Verified in the app settings it's supposed to be doing this as well, but when I render, I only get the video file.

Is there some special magic setting I'm missing?

Running latest versions of AME & Premiere Pro CC

Hi Swamplander1,

I wasn't aware (or saw anything in the docs) that indicated some formats didn't support sidecar files. Suggest the app have some sort of indication of such.
