Hello, so far what I had been hoping someone would make 🙂 No idea why I haven’t seen Aspect until recently.

In the XMP files created by Aspect, xmlns:lr is empty.

If edited as follows, the PhotoLab can read the keywords.

from  
` xmlns:lr=""`  
to  
`xmlns:lr="http://ns.adobe.com/lightroom/1.0/"`

Edit to add: XMP created by Aspect from Canon CR3 does not contain author (creator). However XMP created by PhotoLab for example does and the information can then also be read in Aspect.
