Why we like it

Earns its place in the Adobe Exchange library by combining column-level metadata editing with CSV and TSV export for both metadata and clip markers in a single Premiere Pro panel.

What is Metadata Handler?

Metadata Handler is a panel for Premiere Pro that focuses on project item metadata. Its Column to Column Changer copies or exchanges metadata between columns, while the Column Data Changer adds a prefix or suffix, applies sequential numbering such as 01_ or 02_, or overwrites existing entries. A Delete Column Data tool clears metadata in bulk from the columns you select.

Two export tools round out the panel. The Metadata Exporter writes to CSV or TSV and offers SMPTE, Frames, or Feet+Frames time formats. The Clip Marker Exporter sends clip markers to CSV or TSV and supports multicam.

The plugin requires Adobe Premiere Pro 25.6.0 or later. The current version is 1.0.1, last updated on February 3, 2026, when the developer updated the panel ID for better internal compatibility. It sits at rank 181 in the Adobe Exchange library.

Who is Metadata Handler best for?

Frequently asked questions

What Premiere Pro version does Metadata Handler require?

Metadata Handler requires Adobe Premiere Pro 25.6.0 or later, so editors on earlier releases would need to update before using the panel. The plugin comes from Adobe, and the current listed version is 1.0.1, last updated on February 3, 2026, when the developer updated the panel ID for better internal compatibility. If you are running a supported release, the panel handles project item metadata editing and export inside Premiere Pro. For the latest compatibility details, check the developer's page on Adobe Exchange.

What file formats can Metadata Handler export to?

Metadata Handler includes two export tools. The Metadata Exporter writes project item metadata to CSV or TSV, with a choice of SMPTE, Frames, or Feet+Frames time formats. The Clip Marker Exporter sends clip markers to CSV or TSV, with multicam supported. Between the two, you can move both metadata and markers out of Premiere Pro in a spreadsheet-friendly format. Both tools are covered on the developer's page on Adobe Exchange if you need more detail on the output.

Can Metadata Handler export markers from multicam clips?

Metadata Handler supports multicam in its Clip Marker Exporter, which sends clip markers to CSV or TSV. That covers markers on multicam clips as well as standard clips. The exporter is separate from the Metadata Exporter, which handles project item metadata rather than markers. For specifics on how multicam markers appear in the exported file, see the developer's page on Adobe Exchange.

Is Metadata Handler free?

Metadata Handler is listed as free in this catalog. Licensing terms can change over time, so for current pricing and any usage conditions it's best to confirm on the developer's page on Adobe Exchange before downloading. The listing here shows Adobe as the developer, version 1.0.1, last updated on February 3, 2026. Checking the source directly is the most reliable way to see the terms that apply to your setup.
