How to Tag TV Shows

I've got literally hundreds of video that I want to tag properly as TV shows, but as you probably know, placing them in iTunes will, as default, make them devoid of any video-related metadata, and label them as "movies" with no option to batch correct them.
I've tried AtomicParsley front ends like PAD and Lostify, but quickly discovered AP is only designed to work with .m4v files, where all mine are QuickTime .mov containers.
I am desperately searching for a way to batch tag these files, or possibly alter the iTunes Library itself on a mass basis in order to tag everything with the correct show name, season, ep ID, video type et cetera. I've tried Metadata Hootenany, but quickly found that it's as bad as its name, and isn't designed for iTunes related TV shows anyway.
I'd hugely appreciate if anyone knows of a way to enlighten me. Many thanks!

Try this script: http://www.dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/scripts01.php?page=1#setvideokindofsel ected
read the read me. It does state: "The two movie types that can be used, in English, are "QuickTime movie file" and "MPEG-4 video file". "
I have not tested it, although all of doug's scripts have been excellent so far. If you're cautious back up and try it on one file.
Good Luck,

  • How does tagging work?

    I see there is a show by tags feature in the ios app. How does tagging work?

    On the N96, fire up the camera, then:
    Options > Settings > Record location > On
    You can't see the position on Google maps but you can on Nokia Maps. When viewing a location-tagged image in the gallery view application, simply do Options > Show on map.

  • (ios5 ipad bugs)I can't get changes of album art, artist, album and other tags to show up in the iPad music player, but they show up correctly in the iTunes device view. Certain random songs do not sync correctly.   Wifi sync hasn't worked yet.

    (ios5 ipad bugs)I can't get changes of album art, artist, album and other tags to show up in the iPad music player, but they show up correctly in the iTunes device view. Certain random songs do not sync correctly.   Wifi sync hasn't worked yet.
    I mostly use technology for education and professional audiovisuals and lights.
    I don't sync  music because I use music from at least 4 different computers. (manually mange music)
    I use my iPad to play performance tracks for church and a local gospel group out of our church, Won4Christ.
    I chose to buy the iPad because the laptop of one of the group members (dellxps running iTunes) was randomly losing and mixing up music and I wanted a more stable option that was bigger than my iPod touch.
    I tried to add some data to music libraries that I previously added to my iPad, but the data only shows up when looking at the device in iTunes.
    Wifi sync has not worked on either my laptop or desktop ( both running windows 7 enterprise 64 and newest iTunes) not really a big issue, but very annoying
    When browsing through library playlist albums on the iPad, random artwork shows up on playlists with no artwork that you touch while dragging, and it does not go away until you change to another navigation tab and back.
    Random songs out of hundreds that I added showed up in iTunes grayed out with a sync circle beside them.  Those songs would play back okay on the iPad but were unplayable through the iTunes device view.  I had to delete the songs manually through the library along with the playlist and add them again. 
    These seem to be major stability bugs in the "new" music app and iTunes.  My only option right now seems to be to delete the songs that I want to change and re-add them with the changes already applied rather than changing the id3 tags and artwork on the existing music. I hope apple will release updates to resolve these issues. 
    Thank you for actually making it to the end of this manuscript of annoyances.

    Just wondered if anyone had any other suggestions.

  • How do I only show my inbox on email and not all the support folders

    How do I only show my inbox on email and not all the support folders

    There is a third-party program called Attachment Tamer that will do that for you.  In the Terminal, you can type this:
    defaults write com.apple.mail DisableInlineAttachmentViewing -bool yes
    Also note that while Attachment Tamer does some things with the encoding that makes certain email clients display the item as an attachment, what shows up at the receiver's end is solely dependent on their email client and its settings.

    I was given an assingment, but have no idea where to begin. The assingment is to create a text file using notepad with all of my digital inputs and some how make those imputs show up on my digital indicators on my control pannel.
    When it was explained to me it didn't sound to hard of a task, I have no LabVIEW experience and the tutortial sucks.

    StevenD: FYI, I did NOT give you the one star rating. I would never do that!

    Well, this is an assignment, so it is probably homework.
    Why else would anyone give HIM such an assigment, after all he has no LabVIEW experience and the tutorials are too hard for him?
    This would make no sense unless all of it was just covered in class!
    This is not a free homework service with instant gratification.
    OK! Let's do it step by step. I assume you already have a VI with the digital indicators.
    "...but have no idea where to begin".
    open notepad.
    decide on a format, possibly one line per indicator.
    type the document.
    close notepad.
    open LabVIEW.
    Open the existing VI with all the indicators.
    (are you still following?)
    look at the diagram.
    Who made the program?
    Does the code make sense so far?
    Is it a statemachine or just a bunch of crisscrossed wires?
    Where do you want to add the file read?
    How should the file be read (after pressing a read button, at the start of the program ,etc.)
    See how far you get!

  • How to tag attribute member with standard dimension member in EIS

    hi,
    would any one please help me how to tag attribute member with standard dimension member in EIS
    THANK U IN ADVANCE

    In your OLAP model, view columns for the base dimension table. Go into the column properties and for the columns that have Attribute values highlight them and click the Attribute button.
    Go into Metadata Model and those fields will be available to drag into your outline as attribute members.
    Once in the outline, go into the properties of the attribute and assign the level of the base dimension they associate with.

  • How to tag a Print PDF form ?

    Hi,
    I need some pointers on how to tag a print PDF form. For one of the requirements, we developed a Print PDF form. The form contains Sub-forms which are made to look like a table. The relevant parameter(i.e., pdf_tagged ) is already set before starting the Job. The special case here is that the table gets the text for the header from the application data and shrinks or grows(upto a max supported column count) according to application data. For the same reason we cannot have a table, header row and body row marked in the accessibility tab in the form development transaction. Also, it is required that a header has to be visible.
    So currently in the form :
    1)We have just a set of sub-forms made to look like a table.
    2)We do not have any table,header or body row identified in the accesibility tab.
    3)Table also grows and shrinks horizontally.
    4)First row of the table is made to look like a Header row(bold text) and gets the data from the application data.
    5)This PDF is then displayed in a popup.
    6)The PDF form is currently not tagged (not accessible).
    Any pointers on how to resolve the issue would be highly appreciated.
    Best regards,
    Abhay

    Look in the Help section under Forms.

    How to Handle and show multiple pushpin imgaes on the map based on the requirement at different coordintes?
    I have multiple images in  my App folder. I want to use and show those images dynamically  in windows phone 8 map application

    There are a lot of different ways to do this. One simple method is to use a switch statement when creating your pushpins and based on some property in your data, select the icon you want to use and create your pushpin accordingly.

  • How to get cisco show and share

    Hi,
        I have a DMM with version 5.2 and saw that on my licesing I have show and share. But how do I install show and share? Can I install it on DMM server?Do I need to install it in another server? Where can I download it? I think the show and share installation is called SS-5.2.0.20.iso, but I do not found it on cisco support download section.  

    Mario,
    Show and Share(SnS) is an Appliance just like your Digital Media Manager (DMM).
    You have to purchase the Appliance from Cisco or a Cisco Partner.  Then you have
    to purchase use licenses for Authors etc...   The Appliance software is not separate
    from the hardware and is not downloadable.
    Please contact your Cisco Sales Rep or Account for further explanation and they
    can assist you with your companies needs.
    Thanks!

    how to burn slide show too a dvd-r in web superdrive plugged into the usb port

    I think this link will offer some good insight. I would recommend moving the library to an external HD if you are already using iPhoto on your MBP. If you do decide to move the library directly to your MBP just make sure you are using a different enough name for it that your MBP can easily locate each library independently.

  • How to tag spam mails in iron port and foreword to junk folder?

    How to tag spam mails in iron port and foreword to junk folder? 

    As Dave has suggested.
    Positively identified spam recommended actions would be to Drop it -- if you would like to review these emails and manually remove it, then send it to the spam quarantine 
    This can be changed under the GUI > Mail Policies > Click on Incoming or Outgoing mail Policies and edit the anti-spam settings per policy if needed.
    Ideally suspected spam to be sent to the quarantine for further review.
    If you do not wish to use a quarantine or drop the email, you can prepend the email as Dave also suggested and send it to the end recipient under [Suspected Spam] <Subject> for the end user to determine it.
    However the IronPort will not make specific rules to deliver it to the MUA's Junk mail folder.
    This type of setup is normally down to each specific end user to work with on their own MUA  (outlook, lotus, safari etc.)
    I hope this helps.

  • How do I undo "Show package content"?

    I imported a ACVHD file to my mac and select to "Show package content". Now the video files wont import to Final Cut Pro X because it's not seeing the index file (which I have). How do I undo "show package content" or re-package the files? I'm on Mac 10.8. Thanks!
    Amalia

    I just wanted to make sure all the video files were there before I deleted them off the flashcard in the camera. Didn't know it would cause a problem until now when I'm trying to import everything to from my external hard drive to final cut pro... :-\ Is viewing packge content an irriversable thing? I just assumed there would be a hide content option since there was a show contnet option but clearly wasn't the case. I did not move or delete any files. The index file is clearly there as well as the mts files and cpi files...
    Here's  ascreen shot of the file structure. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks!
