I had a similar problem, (but it was only with WebP files). My problem was
that my version of DT was compiled against an older version of libexiv2. I
had to get the latest EXIV2 source and compile, then get the latest DT code
and compile. Then everything worked.

…Almost.

The other problem I had was that my file viewer did not read the EXIF data,
because it, too, was compiled against an older EXIV2 library. So I had to
get the latest source code for that and compile. Then everything worked.

To see if the metadata is actually in the file or not, try opening the file
with different editors/viewers, and see if one of them sees the metadata.
(For me, The GIMP did see the metadata).

Also, there is an option in the latest DT to specify what is exported as
metadata. That ought to be the FIRST thing you do. (Simplest fix).

Hope this solves your problem.
Sincerely,
