How do you organise your little movies?

I like taking 20-30 second bursts of video footage using my digital camera but how should I organise what I've taken? Should I just add it to iPhoto and do it that way or just add them to the "Movies" folder on my Mac so I can then view them in Frontrow or get another little App to keep them organised separately? I know it's a personal preference but I'd be interested in what other people do.

Since they are videos (movies) it would make more sense to place the videos in the Movie folder than in a photo (iPhoto) folder.
Just my 2 1/2 cents

  • How do you organise in aTV 2? Only could see Movie listing in Apple Shop...

    Hi, I have a tv 1, and have Movies, TV shows, under these I have My Movies, My TV shows etc.
    I was in an Apple retail store today (UK), and they had an tv 2 hooked up to a TV. I had a few minutes play, but all I could see was a Movies, Internet, settings,computers,Photos listing.
    So how do you organise your stuff now, eg where do "your movies" and "your TV shows" go now? and how do they separate? surely everything (movies, TV shows), don't go under 1 big list under "computers" ?
    I was amazed at the size of the thing though, and it did feel snappier on the menu screen, but can someone tell me how the menu/your streamed stuff appears please?
    I use mainly my own stuff streamed from my iMac, and rarely rent form iTunes, I do use the trailers on iTunes though.
    cheers

    With the ATV2 all content is streamed from a computer that has iTunes open. This is accomplished by starting "Home Sharing on the computer with iTunes then turning Home Sharing to ON within the ATV menu. Once all is set-up, you would click the "computer" menu option on the ATV. All of your Music, Photos, TV Shows, etc. are therein listed. Obviously this is different than the menu structure on the ATV 1 where your synced or streamed material is found within each menu category, ie, movies includes "my movies" and the like.

  • HT1414 How do you recover your security code when purchasing extra moves on games

    How do you recover your security code when purchasing extra moves on a game?

    Do you mean the passcode for Settings > General > Restrictions so that you can turn in-app purchases back 'on', or something else ?
    If the Restrictions code then was it on the iPad when you last backed up ? If not then you can restore to that backup and it should be removed. If it was on the iPad when you last backed up then the only way to remove it is to reset the iPad back to factory defaults and you can then re-sync your content back to the iPad - you won't be able to restore to the backup as that will keep the code in place.
    If you mean a different code ... ?

  • How do you export photos and movies from iPhoto to your iPhone? I synced the device and noticed that some photos and some movies from iPhoto on my laptop were not transferred to my iPhone.

    How do you export photos and movies from iPhoto to your iPhone?  I synced the devices and noticed that some photos and movies on my laptop iPhoto were not transferred to my iPhone?

    I am not sure, which answer you found - so just in case:
    If you sync your iPhone with the iPhoto library, the photos will only stay on the iPhone until the next sync and they are not in the Camera Roll. If you transfer using the Photo Stream, they will only be vidsible in the stream, until they are replaced in iCloud by newer content.
    So, if you want to transfer the photos permanently, save them to the Camera Roll.

  • How Do You Store Your Movie Masters?

    Hi all,
    I'm curious, how do you store your Movie Masters? Let's say you filmed an important Family event from a camcorder with a hard drive. You imported the footage into you mac and edited it in iMovie or Final Cut Pro or other app.
    Then what?
    Do you make a DVD?
    Do you save a DVD image file on the computer?
    Do you export a .mov or other format file?
    Do you delete the DV original files because they are so massive?
    Do you save/delete the iMovie or FCP master original footage?
    When do you delete the camcorder hard drive original (when you need the space)?
    What other approaches do you do?
    Which is the Master?
    How do you back up your movie?
    Thanks in advance for your opinions.

    Great question. I think the issue of backup is a important one, and one I always worry about since I have a lot of video footage that is irreplaceable.
    For back-up, it is helpful to define the risk you are trying to protect from.
    For example,
    1) risk of corruption in iMovie --> I might use Time Machine (but I do not because I have not had the issue)
    2) risk of hard drive failure --> I use SuperDuper! nightly
    3) Risk of theft or fire --> offsite backup
    Here is what I do...
    1) I back up my boot disk with SuperDuper automatically to alternate external partitions every other night so I always have two bootable systems. One is less than one day old, and one is less than two days old.
    2) I back up my original video files. For my Motion JPEG, VHS-->AIC, DV, and 8MM to DV, the EVENT is the copy I back up. For my AVCHD high def video, I back up the archive of the AVCHD, but I am not currently backing up the Event files, because I would need from 4 to 8 TB to back up these events depending on whether I made one copy or two.
    3) I use CrashPlan for my offsite backup. It costs less than $4 per month, and I seeded the initial backup to an external drive to minimize having to transfer video files over the Internet. I currently have 1.2TB of data backed up to CrashPlan, which includes my entire boot drive, and the files described in #2.
    4) All of the above is automated, so I don't have to think about it too much. If I have to manually do stuff, I tend to get behind.
    You have to consider the value of total multiple redundancy vs. the likelihood that 2 or three unlikely events would all happen at once. For example, CrashPlan could lose my data. My hard disk could fail. I could lose everything in a fire. But it is unlikely that they would all happen at once, except in nuclear war, in which case, who cares?
    I am considering adding Time Machine backup and some off-site backup of the Event files into the mix, but for now I am satisfied.

  • How do you read your favorite feeds?

    Hi! This is my very first post on Arch forums.
    I'm wondering about how do you read your favorite feeds? Which software do you use and why (what kind of features).
    I'm more interested in finding a little software that uses the system tray.
    Yet I'm also curious about just how does, those who utilize RSS, do it.
    Personally I've used YARSSR, which is exactly what I want, except for few problems..
    On Ubuntu it used to be as easy as make, make install (having build-essenial installed). On Debian 4.0 stable it is in the stable repos, so it was even easier. On Arch it's not in any of the repos nor AUR and make, make install didn't work:
    # yarssr
    bash: yarssr: command not found
    # /usr/local/bin/yarssr
    Can't locate Gnome2.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib/yarssr /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/i686-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/i686-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.7/i686-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.7 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.6/i686-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.6 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/i686-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.4/i686-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.4 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.3/i686-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.3 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.2/i686-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.2 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.1/i686-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.1 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i686-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl .) at /usr/local/lib/yarssr/Yarssr.pm line 3.

    Compilation failed in require at /usr/local/bin/yarssr line 13.
    BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/local/bin/yarssr line 13.
    I'd love to understand what's going on. How to install it right.
    Anyhow, it's far from perfect anyway. It's the single thing that is not working so perfectly on my Debian as it should. Uses way too much CPU, sometimes stays trying to update and never does update nor allow forced updates, no quitting, etc..
    I also use Google Reader, which is great to read many feeds and manage them, etc.
    All I want is a little applet (maybe GNOME applet?) that gives me quick glimpse of my top favorite feeds, without using my browser nor launching a full-functional aggregator.

    Hi James.
    I'd like to know how you want to read your news
    i'd prefer a cli frontend, web front would be bonus (river of news style).
    snownews is good, just needs a few tweaks, some ui ones, and the main one being:
    often i dont get to read news for a few days straight, so i'd like something i can put in cron and it'll update, and log the news for a few days straight, so when i get back it's all there. this generally limits me to one of the web clients, i dont know any desktop apps that do this.
    i might write up an app to do this someday
    as for your yassr problem, pacman -S gnome-perl?

  • How do you get your tunes and voice recordings from your iPod Touch into iTunes on a new computer if you don't have Mobile Me?

    How do you get your tunes and voice recordings from your iPod Touch into iTunes on a new computer if you don't have Mobile Me?
    iTunes on tmy new computer shows none of my data and I fear if I sync my iPod with the computer all will be deleted on the iPod.
    I still have everything in iTunes on the old computer.

    Just move your iTunes library to you new computer.  You can transfer iTunes purchases to you new computer from your iPod by:

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848Make sure you also move the backup.  You an find where the the backup is located here:

    You can move other items by:

    After you move you stuff to the new computer, restore the iPod from backup.

  • HT1386 How do you sync your itunes from the Iphone to the macbook pro?

    How do you sync your itunes from the iphone to the macbook pro? 
    Let's say, I have an Iphone 3GS and it was synced to my older pc (I know...) and it crashed and I can't retrieve my files on there.  I want everything that I have on my 3Gs: photos, videos, music, notes, voice recordings, etc...  Now, I recently upgraded to 4Gs.  I can sync almost everything via icloud but there are files like photos, videos, other music that I cannot sync or for some weird reason it won't work over the cloud.  So I want to move all of those information to my macbook pro (upgraded from pc... yes!).  How do I move everything in my iphone backed up to my itunes in my mac book so that I can sync it to my new 4Gs? 

    I have a 3GS IPhone and have not been able to find Cloud on it anywhere (I was instructed to go to Settings, General, etc). I have also been told I should download update from I Tunes and have not been successful doing that either. I know my I Pad has the Cloud and I am wanting to sync the calendar from the phone to the pad. Any suggestions?

  • How can you get your iPhone videos to compress to one video instead of 5 different frames?

    How can you get your iPhone videos to compree to one video instead of different frames

    It sounds like you to 5 separate videos. If you start recording, then stop it, then start it again, you will have 2 videos. Not 1. As for splicing them together, you will need a video editing package for your PC. I don't know if Windows Movie Maker (or whatever they're calling it now) can handle this or not. On a Mac, I'd say just use iMovie.

  • How do you keep your VPN clients up to date?

    Hi, how do you keep your Cisco VPN clients up to date? Our users connect to a Cisco 3015 Concentrator. It needs to be as automatic as possible.
    Thanks

    Check this link,
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/vpn_client/cisco_vpn_client/vpn_cli
    ent46/administration/guide/vcAch3.html
    Example:
    Steps to perform an automatic update for VPN client :
    ===================================================
    1. Download update-4.8.00.0440-major-K9 file on your PC from the link below and unzip it.
    http://www.cisco.com/cgi-bin/tablebuild.pl/vpnclient-3des
    It will have the following files::
    - binary_config.ini
    - sig.dat
    - vpnclient-win-is-8.00.0440-k9.exe
    - vpnclient-win-msi-8.00.0440-k9.exe
    2. Create a webserver with a folder and move all the above files to this folder on webserver.
    3. Now on your vpn client create a new profile. This profile file will appear in the profiles folder of the vpn client. Copy this file to your desktop and zip it. Name the
    zipped file as profiles.zip. Delete the profile from the client.
    4. Make a copy of your binary_config.ini on your desktop. Rename it to new_update_config.ini. This is just to make sure its not saved as a txt file.
    Open the above file and write the following on it:
    [Autoupdate]
    Required=1
    5. Now move the new_update_config.ini and profiles.zip to the webserver. Once we browse to the webserver it should look like --
    http://webserver/~razshah/vpn_profile_update462/
    Index of /~razshah/vpn_profile_update462
    Name Last modified Size Description
    Parent Directory 09-Mar-2005 13:24 -
    binary_config.ini 09-Mar-2005 13:26 1k
    new_update_config.ini 11-Mar-2005 11:35 1k
    profiles.zip 09-Mar-2005 13:26 1k
    sig.dat 09-Mar-2005 13:26 2k
    vpnclient-win-is-4.6..> 09-Mar-2005 13:26 7.6M
    vpnclient-win-msi-4...> 09-Mar-2005 13:26 10.3M
    6. The concentrator is configured as follows:
    Client Type is Windows
    URL http://webserver/~razshah/vpn_profile_update462
    Revisions 4.6
    7. On your PC go to the VPN Client > updates folder. Delete the update_config file if its already there. This folder should have only autoinstall (this file will be added if update works) autoupdate header files.
    The update does take about 5 mins. To see the new file we have to close and reopen the client. Once connected make sure you are able to browse to the webserver and see all the files.
    1- Auto update runs only on Windows 2000 and Windows XP, all other client types update manually. Windows NT users get notified and can get an update manually from the update server.
    2- Remote users must have the VPN Client for Windows 4.6 or greater installed on their PCs to use the automatic update feature.

    You may have to do this several times.
    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
     Cheers, Tom
