Coverflow for video and podcasts

Has it been discussed about implementing coverflow for video and podcasts?
This would make it so much easier to navigate and also help organize the files on the itouch and iphone.
How serious is apple about implementing these, Im dying to get this for simple navigation and organizing needs.

while deleting a thumbnail/icon (by hand or with cocothumbx) might be a quick solution for photos, i expect coverflow to handle this correctly for me. when dealing with thousands of photographs, automatic export from aperture, batch processing in photoshop/bridge etc, i shouldn't have to deal with thumbnails, should i?
coverflow simply isn't where it should be. i also find it strange that quicklook and coverflow seam to use different algorithms to render files. try an adobe illustrator file for example. the finder doesn't show the content as icon (in a folder), coverflow renders the content/artboard correctly, quicklook only displays the oversized icon. what the...?

  • How to manage Music Videos and Podcasts of my iPod manually in iTune?

    Can anyone tell me how to manage Music Videos and Podcasts of my iPod manually in iTune? Because I can't see the Music Videos and the Podcast section in iTune under Device when my iPod is connected to my computer. Thanks

    iTunes doesn't have a separate *Music Videos* section. In iTunes these are just part of the main Music library. To manually drag a music video to yout iPod drag it onto the iPod or a compatible playlist. To remove, look for it in Music on the iPod and delete.
    I think podcasts only work properly when placed on the iPod via the sync tabs. If you manually drag and drop then the files may get treated as general audio & video files.

  • I use my camera for video and photos.  When I download my videos to my ipad1 using the camera connection kit, they will not play on my ipad. Is there a way I can get them to play?

    I use my camera for video and photos.  When I download my videos to my ipad1 using the camera connection kit, they will not play.
    Does anyone know how I can make this work?

    Yvonne-
    I haven't tried videos on my camera yet.  Do you use the Videos App to play them?  I don't think they will play in the Photos App.
    If yours are in a format that is not in Vazandrew's list, you may need to sync them to your computer and convert them to M4V or MP4 format.  You can use a program like HandBrake to do the conversion.  <HandBrake>  Once converted, you can sync them back to the iPad and they should play.
    This may not meet your needs, but the alternative appears to be getting a different camera.  I don't know of another Video App that might work.

  • Firefox no longer creates previews for videos and music posted on my Facebook Timeline

    after its latests update to the Version 32, Firefox no longer creates previews for videos and music posted on my Facebook Timeline. in earlier Firefox versions there was no such problem. it started to happen exactly after its update, and it still works perfectly well in Chrome and other browsers.

    to make it clear, just look at the picture attached, which describes the process of posting the same video on my Facebook Timeline in Firefox and in Chrome:

  • ITunes plays videos and podcasts when I click on music.

    Hi all I have a problem.
    when i click on music in the left menu. I notice when playign through my music set to randome that i get all media including podcasts, mpe books and other things that i woul dnot expect to be showing. I just want to randomly cycle through my music not listen to the books and podcasts etc.
    is there a way to resove this issue.
    OS: OSX 10.9.2, Mavericks
    Itunes: 11.1.5 (s) 64-bit
    Thanks for any ideas, tips, tricks and all you wish to share to help resolve this. 
    Edit: A good way to fix this would be able to select the type of media so it shows up in the right place. eg when importing or editing the album, file, cd podcast etc be able to select what type of media it is eg music, video, podcast, books and have the catogries show. only in what is selected. I have not come accross this feature.

    See:
    iTunes: May be unable to transfer videos to iPhone, iPad, or iPod
    iTunes: Frequently asked questions about viewing and syncing videos
    You may need a computer app like the free HandBrake to convert the format to one compatible with the iPod.

  • After the last iTunes update, I lost EVERYTHING in my iTunes library (music, videos and podcasts). How do I get them back?

    iTunes was just updated on my Windows 7 and now I lost EVERYTHING in my music library. All of my music that I added and purchased, all my videos (TV shows) and all of my podcasts (some of them are older podcasts that I was saving to listen to for later and I can't ever get them back because I don't subscribe to them now). How do I get all my files back? I'm so upset! I had a similar issue a earlier this year with an iTunes update. I wish I can keep everything the way it is without ever having to update the program. I either lose ALL my files or the program doesn't work right.
    Please help me.
    Thanks,
    Jenny

  • One chapter for video and another for images on same DVD?

    Hello,
    I don't yet have a Mac, but am very close to buying a MacBook. I do have a question about iDvd. Is it possible to create a theme or template or to even do this. I want to on a regular basis have a short 5-7 tops 10 minute video and 100-200 pictures. I'd like it so the user has the option to click one chapter and watch the video. Click the other and view the images with an option to browse the disc and save the images for uploading to their target of choice such as FB. Is this possible with iDvd?
    Thanks,
    BK

    Hello and Welcome to the discussions!
    Congratulations on being an 'almost' Mac purchaser!
    Yes, you can do what you want in iDVD.
    You will have theme templates that come with iDVD to use to make a nice theme for your projects.
    You will have the options to have the videos play individually by placing them on the menu one at a time, or to put them in iDVD the way you place a slideshow and have them play consecutively. Here is a link to a visual from Old Toad showing just that. Remember to look at this again when you get to this point:
    http://homepage.mac.com/toad.hall/.Pictures/Forum/iDVD8movieSS.png
    Another option for videos is to put them all into one iMovie and make chapters for each video. However, the chapters will not appear on the main menu, but in a separate submenu.
    You can then put the photos in iDVD as their own separate slideshow.
    When your DVD is viewed, the options will be to select to play the video slideshow or play the photo slideshow. You can rename these titles whatever you wish.
    If you make an iMovie, the options for it will be 'Play Movie' and 'Scene Selection' ( to link to the submenu with the iMovie chapter choices) and the same photo slideshow.
    In additiion, you can utilize the DVD-ROM option to have the photos and videos available for downloading to computer. This option will not be seen when the DVD disk is viewed on a set-top DVD player. iDVD's Help File says:
    +In iDVD, you can easily make it possible for viewers to download the photos and movies that appear in your slideshows. This is a nice feature for viewers who may, for example, want to print the photos for permanent display.+
    +The photos and movies are added to the DVD-ROM portion of your DVD, and viewers can access them when they insert the DVD into the drive on a computer. (The files are not accessible from a TV.)+
    Get the MacBook! Good luck with your projects. Take the time to do all the tutorials Apple offers for its iLife applications. Spend time here in the discussions for the apps you are using. Utilize the Search function to see if someone else has asked and received answers to a problem similar to yours. You will learn a lot and find answers that even the Apple Genius bar people do not have!

  • Final Cut Server is for video and photo archiving?

    Too many products in the last few years. I used to use iPhoto to archive both photos and video and edit them. Now I have moved to the professional line but it gets more confusing.
    Aperture2: archiving and cataloguing thousands of pictures with minor edits
    Adobe CS4: major edits to my pictures
    FCP6: video edit but with no archiving and/or metadata capability
    Final Cut Server: for what? Can it archive/metadata all my video and all my Aperture files and work
    seamlessly between all these four programs?
    Please help. I am considering buying Final Cut Server. I am both a photographer as well as a videographer running many different cameras over many different kinds of shoots. And I am trying to simplify my work process.
    Thanks,
    Brian

    We were in a similar situation as well.
    We use Adobe products for photo and desktop stuff
    and FCP Suite for video.
    We ingest images with Bridge and add keywords.
    The raw files are backed up and the corrected images
    are processed (Photoshop/Image Processor) and dropped
    into a Final Cut Server watch folder.
    This action automatically adds the files to FCS for
    easy access as well as backs up the images to an
    external FTP in our desktop publishing office across
    town. Desktop has its own version of FCS that adds
    the new files and makes them available for designers.
    When we shoot video we shoot mainly with Sony EX3
    camcorders with SxS media. Footage is downloaded
    and tagged in XDCAM Transfer. The folder that is
    labeled "Import" in the utility is also a watch
    folder which added the files to FCS.
    So in other words Final Cut Server has us organized
    and working together much better than we were before.

  • Resizeable Presentation Setup for Video and 3D

    I want to be able to have a slide show that integrates still images, text, video and 3D. I use InDesign but it is pretty constraining. PowePoint and the like have similar constraints.
    I can assemble a simple presentation in Flash with video integrated, etc.  but it is usually impossible to predict the resolution of the projector I will be using. Hence my question:
    How can I build a Flash presentation template that I shall be able to conveniently reuse and that will be resizeable?
    Option 1. Is it possible to make Flash to scale the stage and all content proportionately, like PowerPoint or Acrobat can do (with black areas if the screen ratios are different)?
    Option 2. What is the reasonable path for making resizeable/edjustable content? I looked at this (starling + feathers)
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/designing-multidevice-multiresolution.edu.html
    I like the use of Stage 3D but these frameworks do not seem like a good match. It is slow to modify the content (I need to be making new presentation reguraly) and I shall not be using most of the functionality. It could work if I build several types of pages and reuse them maybe but I suspect a simpler way should exist.
    Thank you for pointers and advice,
    Maya

    This function will get you far:
    function goScaledFullScreen()
        var screenRectangle:Rectangle = new Rectangle(0,0,stage.stageWidth,stage.stageHeight);
        stage.fullScreenSourceRect = screenRectangle;
        stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;
        stage.quality = StageQuality.BEST;
    Independent of your actual monitor resoulution it will scale up any content you might load via loader to the full screen resolution.
    It has its limits though: On a Mobile device it won`t reorganize the content if you rotate the device from Landscape to Portrait. Also if you have content that is off-stage you might have to employ masks if the Monitors aspect ratio differs from your presentation one`s.
    You can use the Capabilities class to get the actual ResolutionX/ResolutionY of the device that runs your presentation.
    You might want to somehow inform your presentation if the resolution gets changed via the Resize Event
    If size is not an issue you might prepare your presentation in the best Quality possible (for example HD) because downsizing works in general much better (qualitywise) than upsizing.

  • Thumbnails for Videos and Movies are Blank or Black?

    I've just "upgraded" to iPhoto 11. Now most of my video or movie files have black and blank thumbnails. The movies don't start out with a black frame, it's that iPhoto isn't registering a thumbnail for some reason. I looked through the archive but the suggestions are focused on previous versions of iPhoto.
    Any suggestions?

    I tried this as well. Rebuilding with all the different rebuild options (which does take a long time) and with no joy I'm afraid - still have black thumbnails for video images.
    FYI: Tried a rebuilding in iPhoto Library Manager too
    Problem still persists.  Any one have any ideas on this, I have so many videos with this issue ... black thumbnail image/preview in iPhoto - but (thankfully) the video file is definitely there and does play.
    Any ideas appreaciated.

  • Unable to zoom in for videos and pictures

    Hi
    I have a blackberry curve 9300 and I used to be able to zoom in for pixtures and videos by justing moving the trackpad but when I do move the trackpad I can't zoom! Does anyone know what the problem could be?
    Thanks so much
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I had this problem on my phone.  The Orange support people got me to take the battery out while the phone was still switched on and then replace it.  Once the phone booted up again then the zoom worked once more.

  • Need a laptop for video and have no direction...please help!

    Hello,
    My name is Bryan Troxell and I just started film school this week. After attending my first editing classes I learned that we would be using Adobe Premiere Pro as our editing program of choice. This opened my options for purchasing a laptop as I had previously narrowed my search to Apple based laptops. Now I have the dilemma of trying to find a portable workstation for video editing that will last me through school and beyond. I am open to windows and apple devices and I have a price range of about $2000 including tax. I live in Washington so really my purchase needs to be around 1800 or lower for me to remain within my budget. The reason I need a laptop as opposed to a desktop is the neccessity for mobility and the ability to edit while at school(which has outdated imac models) and at home. I am looking for maximum mobility and solid battery life. So I am hoping for a 15 inch class with at least 5 hours of battery life. If this is unattainable in my price range then as close to it as possible. I guess I am asking for help because I haven't searched for a computer in almost 3 years now and have no clue what I will need beyond a quad core processor, minimum 8gb of ram, and a 1080p display. I hope that the knowledgeable minds here can point me in the right direction. 
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Bryan Troxell

  • Green screen for videos and movies

    i upgraded all the software for itunes and quicktime. using another post for 'green screen for video previews', i modified some settings in quicktime and one of them now has strips of static across the green. quite frustrating...

    I could be off the mark, but you may need to install the version of iTunes here: iTunes for Windows (64-bit — for older video cards).
    And then repair/reinstall QuickTime 7.7.6 for Windows.
    If that works for you then the next time Apple Software Update or iTunes tells you there is a new version revisit the first link. It should be updated with a new "for older video cards" version that will work with QuickTime.

  • What upgrades for video and processor on a mac pro 1.1?

    Quick question.....
    Was looking on the forum and i have not yet clear what could be done to upgrade the graphic card and the processor of my mac pro 1.1; so hope that someone has good solutions
    1) i have a x1900xt, works decently for software and games on windows, but would like to get something that support DX10 on windows, and that works good also for pro apps...is the geforce 8800 or ati 3870 the only options? and are teh apple store selling them for $279 even today? i would love to go to a best buy or frys and get one and save money and time, instead of ordering it online at that price....any suggestions?
    2) i have 2 dual core 2.66 (no idea what is the codename of the xeon processor); do i have any option to upgrade to a 4 core or to something faster?
    Thanks a lot! when i got my macpro i was not thinking that i would need upgrades like for my pc, but i realized that it still needs some work on it, even after spending 2500 dollars ia lil bit more than a year ago

    I tried to look for clovertown processors, and they are still around 250 each plus there are different models....could you give some models of processors that will work for sure on my 1st gen mac?
    Regarding the video card:
    I tried to use the diamond 1Gb, and on the 8X slot it works basically at half the speed of the x1900 (3dmark 06 gave me 4200 for the x1900 and 2250 for the 4650); so the gain is close to 0
    Under macOs does not work at all; and when i tried to swap the 2 cards to boot the pc and use the 16x rail on the 4650, basically Vista decided to not recognize either card, leaving me with 1 monitor off and one on, without being able to recognize the video card.
    I wonder why the PCI utility on mac does not allow to set which slot will get the 16X....the only place where the x1900 fits is slot 4, so even if the card would work fine , i would have to swap cards and connectors everytime that i wanna play in bootcamp, and this is not the best choice
    Last attempt: tried with a 4870 and looks like the flashing does not always work (read trough 26 pages of a post on another site); so since i don't want to pay 350 for the apple version, i've got a 3rd party 3870 for less than 200 dollars (shame that the 4870 for pc cost the same price), that form the links that you guys gave me, seems the best choice for pro apps and games, compared to the 8800 (and the plus that under bootcamp i can get a second card and use crossfire is a huge plus, especially when the price of this card will go further down!).
    Thanks everyone for giving your suggestions, and hope that this post will help other people that, like me, were trying to update their machine to a better video card
