do the .cos files work like xmps? If I have someone edit images for me, can they email these files to me, drop them back into my own image collection and have the edits appear?

I thought I had read the Capture one was going to have xmp output at some point- did that not happen? I don't see any info on their site about it.

Thanks

I couldn't say for version 5 as I haven't tested it, but it definitely works for version 4.

The .cos files contain all of the edits made to the RAW file. They are saved in a 'capture one' folder in the same folder as the RAW images. You can move them with the RAW images to transfer all of your edits.

very cool. thanks! now if we can only get them to do xmps...
