the most part, Adobe video and audio applications deal with XMP

metadata very similarly. Some small distinctions exist, however,

reflecting the unique workflow stage that each application addresses.

When using applications in tandem, an understanding of these slightly

different approaches can help you get the most out of metadata.</p>

<p>Adobe OnLocation and Encore provide one set of metadata properties

for all assets. However, Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, and

Soundbooth divide the Metadata panel into separate sections for

different asset types.</p>
