Colleagues, hello!
Who will tell me - where to see the metadata of the video file? In which mode was the video shot?
It means  filter, ISO, shutter, ....

Thanks for Ex Machina posted the thread that we had discussed before, please kindly refer to that post, and I will also post the reply here: If you had enabled video captions at that time, Home, GPS, BAROMETER, ISO, Shutter, EV and Fnum will be recorded.
If you use other professional players like exiftool (Ex Machina posted above), KM player etc., more info will be listed. Hope it helps.

What is 'video caption' and will it record to the metadata of the file?

Like the screenshot below, if you play the video on the PC, then you will see the data that I listed above. See if it works for you. video caption.png

Hi there, the data of the video caption will record is the Home point, GPS, BAROMETER, ISO, Shutter, EV and Fnum like I posted above. If you have enabled "video caption" on the camera settings, an SRT file will be generated. It will record the info above.

Ask, please, your engineers - in the subtitles you need to add an indication of the choice of the parameters COLOR and STYLE .
This means that no third-party tools are required

Thank you and Happy New Year!

Useful for me also as I start to dink around more with video editing. Exiftool would be more useful for me if the gui were easier to use. I found a nice (free, of course) exif editor app for Android but nothing like it that works on my iMac. It would be nice if Lightroom gave better exif editing access for photos and now videos add a whole new complexity of data that would be nice to store in the files.

I will try video captions. Can I assume if the captions show up in the video replay that I can turn them off? I don't want them to show up while I am looking at the movie.

Note: I turned on Video Captions. They do not show up for a movie file viewed with iMac Quicktime. The gps location does show up in the movie inspector window whether the Video Captions was on or off. That inspectopr shows file size, type, etc. but not the exposure information. So maybe the captions are stored in the file somwhere. We'll see someday.

Captions are stored in text files alongside the video file, and can automatically be played back as an overlay on a Mac using VLC to play the video.

I use exiftool to get the metadata of videos. And I run WidsMob Photo Viewer to browse Mac photos in EXIF mode.

I'm struggling to get any sense out of exiftool because of lack of understanding of command line.
Is there any way to get script to print all exif data, does the exiftool have an option to get gps for any segment of the vid. I wish to interrogate a vid for GPS in particular of clips. I've tried with a 5 second clip I'm interested in but can't get passed the exiftool GUI

I would also like to know if there is another way to see metadata without having to go into another program. I tried looking for metadata on photoshop and premiere pro but couldn't find it. I am having problems with some of the videos that I shot and would like to troubleshoot. I shot simultaneously with a pocket and action. The pocket produced amazing video but the action was terrible.
