Now, you lost me guys.

Currently I use only photos and my current settings are:

* read from sidecar: on
* write to sidecar: on
	* write to xmp sidecar only
* use compatible filename for writing sidecars: off

and I get abc_1234.cr2.xmp  That's what I want to keep.

I have abc_1234.mp4 and I want my descriptions/tags stored in
abc_1234.mp4.xmp and in DK.

Will these settings work with videos?

Thanks
