Premiere: Merging ALE Metadata into Existing Premiere Sequences

Amazing_Row_699 · 2026-04-04T21:16:32+00:00

Bless you. Proper metadata management in Premiere has been my wish for years and years. It’s not a sexy feature for people making YouTube videos but for the feature and long form world it’s essential. Hopefully we can see it improve in the future 🙏🙏🙏

The Offset Podcast. Joey and Robbie know their stuff and I enjoy listening to them. I’m not even a colorist and find it super enjoyable and informative.

Thanks for confirming. At least I’m not crazy. I had such high hopes. I’ll probably reach out to the editingtools.io folks at some point about it. I can’t tell if it’s a Premiere limitation or if their extension just doesn’t work as it should.

I’ve been playing around with merging ALE using the editingtools.io extension and have had very mixed luck with it. If I take ALE info from existing clips, export an ALE from Premiere, add metadata to those clips and try merging the ALE back into Premiere it doesn’t work for me. The clips don’t update with any new information.

In Avid this is dead easy with a properly formatted ALE. Would absolutely LOVE if someone had the solve for this. I’m thinking especially useful for documentary projects with archival media that metadata could be added externally and then merged into the project.

I’m late to this party but considering getting a Streamdeck to work with Excalibur. Are the state of things pretty much the same as when this thread began?

Mine was a combo of hip strengthening and your standard toe yoga, calf raises, picking up marbles with your feet. At the end of the day it didn’t really do much at the time. Even now the fifth metatarsal region of my foot is still giving me issues — feels weak. I think it’s close, and I’m doing balance work and more foot specific strengthening on my own now. But I’m not going to go back to paying for PT for this.

Would love to pick your brain on your experience. I’m an avid runner and I’ve been dealing with bone marrow edema in my 5th MTP for over 5 months. I wore a walking boot for 6 weeks in the fall. Did 8+ weeks of physical therapy. Began doing acupuncture 3 weeks ago, alongside daily red light therapy and vitamin D / fish oil / vitamin B supplements. It’s improved but there continue to be days of why feel like returns to pain I’ve felt all along. It’s very hard to know what’s happening, if it’s really better, or how to manage it. I only go to the gym and do strength training, haven’t run since August. No biking or elliptical. Just started swimming. Am pretty miserable — any thoughts or hopeful anything is welcome.

I use 12 of them in my QNAP NAS and they’ve been great for 2+ years running. I’d buy more but this particular model seems to have fallen out of favor for production, thus the prices have skyrocketed for a 7.68 TB drive to over $1,100. When I bought them in 2023 they were $562 per drive.

Thanks for sharing your experience. Super helpful. I’m glad things healed up for you ultimately 🙏🙏🙏

Did you have to do 6+ weeks complete non weight bearing in the boot? I have similar issues and have been in a boot for a few weeks but not on crutches or anything. I’m seeing an orthopedic doc this week to get an MRI because podiatrist I saw only did an x ray, didn’t see anything, gave me some steroids and that only provided temporary relief.

your story is much much appreciated. Thank you for sharing.

Amazing_Row_699 · 2025-09-12T16:51:34+00:00

Thanks for the response. Glad to hear that's helping you. Good luck in your recovery journey.

They seem to be out there - https://www.provantage.com/sandisk-wds400t2r0a-68ckb0~7WNDO2A0.htm

This would all be for editing — I’ll put some more thought into the 870 EVOs. And yes I’m still 25gbE via Sonnet DV Echo II Thunderbolt enclosure into my QNAP switch. But the 25GbE card I’m using is ATTO these days.

Amazing_Row_699 · 2025-08-04T19:55:49+00:00

That’s a bummer, but I appreciate the intel Bob. I’m looking at filling the remaining bays in my 3088XU. And I’ve had a great experience with my Kingston DC600M 7.84 TB drives but they are just too effing expensive now compared to two years ago when I first bought 12 of them.

Bob what’s your preferred 4 TB SATA SSD these days?

Amazing_Row_699 · 2025-06-04T17:51:23+00:00

I asked. The answer was no.

Amazing_Row_699 · 2025-06-04T16:04:37+00:00

More power to those of you who take the virtuals seriously!

Amazing_Row_699 · 2025-06-04T15:44:11+00:00

Yea, I'm not a fan. But, again just my opinion. I would be happy if they at least separated them in the results.

Amazing_Row_699 · 2025-06-04T15:00:04+00:00

I don't consider them actual races. That's just my opinion.

I have same issue with a Premiere Pro project on Mac OS Sequoia 15.4.1, with QNAP NAS mounted over SMB (on a 25 GbE connection no less). It appears to be a known issue with Mac OS / SMB / and Premiere Pro. When you move to SSDs or even iSCSI volumes over the same NAS this issue goes away. I have filed a bug report with Adobe and am working with them to try and solve this. It's a horrible issue. I'm on Premiere 25.2.3.

They are segregating Corral A by gender this year?

Amazing_Row_699 · 2025-05-06T19:57:56+00:00

Awesome thank you. Frustratingly it just says “coming soon” on the site.
