DNG Metadata Change not Recognized in Davinci

[davidicharp]

Davinci Resolve will recognize the change of a DNG file's metadata in the Camera Raw Tab when I input the following command:

exiftool -uniquecameramodel="Panasonic Varicam RAW" *  -overwrite_original

The problem is when I import the DNG in either Capture One or Lightroom that the exported DNG will not display the changed camera model in Davinci.

The reason I need to input the DNG into a photo editor is so the recognized metadata addresses the vignette issue that Davinci won't implement from the metadata.

Is there a workaround for this?

Perhaps I don't understand.  Why not run the ExifTool command after editing the DNG?

I did run the command after the DNG was edited, but it doesn't work after the DNG file went through capture one or lightroom. When I run the command afterwards, it does say the file was changed.

I uploaded the two DNG files to the cloud to see if somewhere there is a difference in the metadata. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1gN-V5Dh-JzemJRG3zUeSaUU6wC51T5IA/view?usp=drive_link

Sorry, I am a total newbie to this as you can tell. Do you know the command to read the DNG file data?

[davidicharp]

Alright, I read the first post and figured out how to read the metadata, but still don't know the issue why Davinci won't read the exported DNG correctly. The metadata for both files look very similar and both have unique camera names of "Panasonic Varicam RAW"

Are you sure that UniqueCameraModel is the tag you want to write?  Use the command in FAQ #3 and look for the tag that matches what you see in Davinci Resolve. Make and Model are the standard tags that are read when trying to match a camera model.

Also, make the edit on a file before loading it into Davinci.  Often, programs don't recognize when a file has been edited and don't reload the data.
