Hi All,

We enabled XMP write back as per the procedure mentioned in

http://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-0/administer/content/assets/xmp-writeback.html.

So if the metadata of the original is updated it will be propagated to renditions.  But there is no provision to check the metadata of a renditions. Please let me know how to check the metadata of renditions. so that we will be sure that enabled XMP write back is working fine.

Since we did not found the provision to check renditions metadata . We not sure whether XMP write back working fine or not.

Thanks

OOB Asset rendition does not retain metadata (except width,height) & you need to custom implement thumbnail servlet.

Hi Krishna,

I faced the same issue recently, but lately I realized that if you go to the jcr:content node of any of the rendition and checkout the property jcr:data of type Binary, you will see a View link in its value, you can click on that to download the rendition. Once you have downloaded copy of the asset rendition you may open it with notepad/gedit and then find(Cntrl+F) the metadata property or the value that you wanted to propagate to the rendition.

If you are able to find it, it clearly indicates that the metadata changes you made have perfectly propagated to the rendition.

 

Thankyou !
