Save Metadata stops on Movie Files

[DaveInMelton]

There seems to be a bug in Lightroom Classic CC (8.0). When trying to save metadata on a group of folders, it stops as whenever it encounters a movie file. The movie files on my disk are Nikon MOV files.

Is this a bug? Is there a work-around?

I have the same problem with Release 9.3! Video files are of different types. (mp4, mts, mov ... ).

Any solution to this???

Do you get a error message, if so post a screen capture of the message or quote the text word for word.

[PetterAM]

There is no error message. The progression bar just freezes. (Windows 10 Pro 64bit. Version 10.0.19041).

[Just Shoot Me]

Yes there is.

Use a Program specifically designed and written to work with VIDEO Files. LrC (from Lr version 1) was designed to work with STILL Images.

[PetterAM]

Which program is that? I don't understand. An extra plug-in?

This doesn't happen  in my LR 9.3. I suggest you post a bug report in the official Adobe feedback forum, where Adobe wants all bug reports and feature suggestions:

Be sure to include the first ten lines of the menu command Help > System Info.  Provide all the details, rather than linking back to this thread -- experience shows that Adobe developers tend not to follow the links.

A screen recording of the problem behavior would make it more likely Adobe would pay attention and perhaps investigate. Upload it to Youtube, Dropbox, or similar and include the sharing link in your post.
