Preparing a custom metadata configuration file

You can embed custom metadata when exporting clips by preparing a configuration file in advance in the default folder on your computer.
  1. Quit the software.
  2. Use a text editor to create a configuration file.
    • The configuration file must include key-value pairs as follows.

      Example:

      {
      “Slug”: “Election”,
      “Type”:“News”,
      “Source”: “”,
      “Shot date”: “”
      }

      • Slug/Type/Source/Shot date: Examples of keys.
      • Election/News: Examples of values. The values are displayed as the default. If there is no value, the value field becomes blank.

  3. Save the file as “customMetadataExport.json” in the following folder.

    Windows: C:\Users\<Username>\Documents\Sony\Catalyst\

    macOS: /Users/<Username>/Documents/Sony/Catalyst
