Itunes 12.0.1.26 poster frame not working

I have ripped a large number of children's TV episodes from a single TV series into iTunes.  Top enable my child to choose her programme, I'd like to set a poster frame for each episode.  The 'Set Poster Frame' from right-click menu is ineffective.  I have found that if I 'Set Poster Frame' from right-click menu, then immediately set 'Rating' from right-click menu then the poster frame is changed - but - as soon as I watch an episode on AppleTV the frame is reset to the default.
How can I set and keep the poster frame?
Itunes 12.0.1.26
Mac Mini Late 2012
AppleTV 2

I have an identical device setup and had the same issue with handbrake 0.10 - poster frames weren't staying set.  I didn't use to have this issue, so I did some research.  I don't know if this is the root issue or a coincidence but Quicktime's Movie Inspector shows that movies recording in handbrake 0.9.9 use the video format "JVT/AVC Coding", whereas 0.10 videos are in vanilla H.264.  Everything else is apparently the same.  I don't know what the real difference is between those formats, but once I reverted to handbrake 0.9.9 the movies are behaving as expected.  I can now set poster frames (without having to also set a rating in the thumbnail window above the movie while it is playing) and when the movies are sync'ed to iPad or watched on AppleTV they show up as expected.
TL;DR - revert to Handbrake 0.9.9

  • Set Poster Frame not working

    I can't set poster frames in bin icon view using command-P, nothing sticks...  anyone else experiencing this?  PPro CC 7.2.1 & OS X 10.9.1

    I'm not clear on how Poster Frames are supposed to work here.  The image you see for the clip in icon mode is the frame the clip's playhead is on.  It's the first frame by default, but when you play through a clip in the bin, which you'd need to do to choose a Poster Frame, it stays on that frame anyway until you move the clips playhead.  So...you end up with the same result.
    But even if a Poster Frame could be set, does that mean you can no longer play through the clip in the bin because it's always showing that Poster Frame?  I don't understand the purpose of that.  And if you can still play the clip in the bin, then what use a Poster Frame if it doesn't always show that?
    I'm missing something.

  • I've just updated my iPhone to the new iPhone OS and now it won't work and iTunes won't recognise that it's there.  I've uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled twice and it's not working.  Please help.

    I have not had wifi since November when I upgraded to the newest IOS version.  I called the Apple help line and they told me some things to do and I tried them all and they worked for a few hours and then wifi shut off again.  I kept doing what they told me and it worked for a couple more days and then I could never turn it on again.  My blue tooth doesn't work either.  I had to actually increase my data usage with AT&T becuase of this.  When I did that in December I went to the Apple store and was told that it is a hardware issue and since my phone is out of warranty I would have to pay for a new phone because they could not fix the issue.  My upgrade isn't up until June 2014 so not only do I have to wait for the upgrade and I am not paying for a new phone but I have to pay $10 plus extra a month on my cell phone bill because I was going over on my Data!!!  I have been beyond upset about this and Apple is not doing anything about this nor did they offer up some way to resolve the issue because obviously it is not just some rare incident if several people are having this issue.  Who knows how many people out there have had this issue and have not said anything about it.  Now there is a newer update that I can't do because it requires wifi in order to download.
    June can not get here fast enough and I may not go back to Iphone after dealing with this for so long with no help from Apple.

  • ITunes on my iPhone 5 is suddenly not working.

    iTunes on my iPhone 5 is suddenly not working. Updated to IOS8.0 (not running 8.0.1) a few days go but was fine up until today. Now, when attempting to play a list of songs (artist, playlist or album) it rapidly shuffles through all of them without playing and then it displays a red square next to songs and won't play them at all. It seems to sync with my MBP but then new playlists I've created don't appear on the iPhone even though iTunes on the MBP has them appearing when I click the "on my iPhone tab. Tried the obvious quit and restart approach. No effect. Does anyone have any ideas?

    It's not a hardware problem. The same exact thing just happened to me. My husband reset all settings, not erase all content and settings, after the phone started back up, everything worked like normal again. You just have to redo your settings.

    Hope this helps you!

  • Request to post Icloud not working locations. for 2 days almost from Ventura CA. I think they are not being truthful about th eamount of folks affected!

    request to post Icloud not working locations. for 2 days almost from Ventura CA. I think they are not being truthful about the percentage of folks affected!
    and what's with the minimalist response? We're working on it for 2 days? You can do beter than that for exsisting loyal customers can't you?

    I just spoke to a Support person with Apple.  I got the same answer, "We Don't Know", "but they are working on it...Blah, Blah.  I too live in Ventura, and have been without email since yesterday approx. 3:00 pm.
    The guy said, it's the same if you brought your computer into the shop.  We have to determine if it's hardware, or software, then fix the problem.
    Well, What about a BACK UP SERVER?  No real answer to that one.  Just, "Thanks, for your Patience."
    This really blows!!!

    Hi cbafiero,
    It seems that the problem lies in your router. I'm not sure exactly what the issue is (I've just now discovered it myself), but after switching from a Linksys WRT54GX2 to a thrift store Netgear, my shared libraries appeared instantly. My gut is telling me that the Linksys routers are blocking the multicast traffic, which is stupid on Linksys's part, to filter traffic internally. I'll look more into the Netgear and see what it has that the Linksys doesn't (or vice versa).

  • HT1689 My itunes store app on my iphone does not work.

    My itunes store app on my iphone does not work. It flashes on, then immediately off and back to the homepage. What is the solution? Can I de/re-install? I'm not sure how to do that since no "X" shows up in the top right corner anymore....

    Hi mixterart,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. If you're not able to access the iTunes Store app try restarting/resetting the iPhone:

  • My iTouch will not show movies, but they are showing on my iTunes.  When I try and play them through my iTunes it freezes on me and does not work.

    My iTouch will not show movies, but they are showing on my iTunes.  When I try and play them through my iTunes it freezes on me and does not work.  This problem only occurs whenever I am using my netbook.  It doesn't happen when I use a different computer.  I tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes and am not sure what else to do from here. 

    You may have transferred all your songs, but your iPad is seeing the library as a different entity.
    The following article(s) may help you.

  • Set poster frame not an option in View menu

    Do you need QuickTime Pro just to be able to set a poster frame for a particular .MOV file?  I have read on the internet that other people find this option in the View menu, but it doesn't show up for me.  I have Lion installed.
    Thanks!

    I have an amazingly simple solution that worked for me:
    Open the video in quicktime and press cmd+c on the frame of your choice. Then right click the video file in he finder and choose "Get Info" press cmd+v and the poster frame will be fixed.
    I do not have Quicktime Pro, so this will work on hopefully any version of Quicktime.
    It appears that different people have different definitions of a "Poster Frame." This gentleman is referring to the icon image displayed at the Finder level rather than a true "Poster Frame" as can be designated by QT 7 Pro, iWeb, or iTunes apps. The icon display to which he is referring can be created by either by pasting a copied frame to the "Info" window as described above or by dragging and dropping an image file (of compatible dimensions and format) directly to the "Info" widow icon area.
    As to the creation of a designated "Poster Frame," if you do not have QT 7 Pro or no longer use iWeb, then your can create a "Poster Frame" using iTunes. Simply open the file in the iTunes player, locate the frame you want designated as the "Poster Frame," control-click the player window to open the context menu, and select the "Set Poster Frame" option. If the video does not already have a "Cover Art" image associated with it, the designated poster frame will be used as the cover art image but not adopted as the file icon image. If the file already has an external image associated with it as cover art, then the cover art image is used for both the cover art and the file icon image but the "Poster Frame" will still be recognized by applications that recognize/use this designation.

  • QuickTime files not visible in Firefox (Mac) & poster frame not visible

    I created a website with QuickTime samples and uploaded it to an ftp server.
    I can see the QT files when I access via Safari (Mac + Win), Chrome (Win), IE (Win) and Firefox (Win), but for some reason, when I access via Firefox (Mac) they do not appear???????? Any ideas on that?
    Also, I have tried setting a poster frame, both using QT Pro and iWeb's poster frame function, but it does not seem to be working. I still only see the first frame of the video which unfortunately is a black frame. I am getting a little frustrated with this...
    Please help.

    There are alternative ways to add a QT file to a web page that might be of interest to you. Both ways do not require the movie to load with the page which speeds up the page load.
    1 - Opening Item in New Window Sized for the Item.
    2 - QT Movie Exported out of QT via Export for Web

  • Poster frames not on site

    When I go into inspector for a video and select a poster frame, it doesn't seem to show up once the site is published. Any ideas?? Other features like auto play and hide movie controller work. I'm stumped.

    It appears that the poster frame option only work with a movie on an Albums page. (See Roddy's post in this topic.
    I also cannot get it to work on a regular page. There is an alternative way to add a movie to a page that will let you pick any frame of the movie to display and then open the movie in a separate window sized just for the movie. You can see an example of it on this demo page along with a description of how to make it happen. It may not fit in your scheme of things but take a look anyway.
    A second option is described and demonstrated in Section B of this demo page. The how to is in Tutorial #18

  • Movie Poster Frames Not Maintained in Export?

    I've been setting Poster Frames on all my LR5 videos with the assumption that they would be maintained when i export my videos, using LR5's native export function.  I'm now noticing that the poster frames are *not* maintained in the export files.  Has anyone else experienced this?  I am exporting using H.264 compression, set to Max.  I also have checked the option to maintain all metadata in the export dialogue.  Any other suggestions?

    UPDATE: I noticed that the poster frame of the export is maintained when I view the exported file on my Apple TV, pulling from my home server.  But the strange thing is that Lightroom itself does *not* maintain that poster frame when viewing the exported clip within Lightroom.  Any ideas why that would be?  The exported file is not in the same folder as the original, but that should not make a difference, I wouldn't think.  Seems like a bug.

  • Has anyone else encountered a problem with poster frames not recognising a video's pixel aspect ratio

    I'm discovering a strange effect with some of the .mp4 videos I've upload into iBooks Author. They're Pal SD 4:3 .movs with a 16:9 pixel aspect ratio and they play out fine on the iPad. However the iBooks software seems to be ignoring the pixel aspect ratio of the poster frame. This leads to the situation.
    1) When I drag my video into iBooks author all looks good - the video is 16:9 and if I choose to set a poster frame (or leave it at default) it looks 16:9 in the iBooks Author.
    2) I preview my book and it opens in iBooks on the iPad. But now the poster frame aspect ratio is 4:3
    3) I click on the video to start playing and it immediately jumps to 16:9 aspect ratio and plays out fine.
    4) If it scroll down a couple of pages and then scroll back the video poster frame has now reset itself to 4:3
    This sounds like a bug to me. Anyone else had it? Do you know if it's possible to report bugs without having a Developer licence?
    Thanks for any help
    Rob

    While there is no formal bug reporting method similar to what devs have w/apps, iBA does have a 'Provide iBooks Author Feedback' menu item.

  • Effects and key-frames not working on some clips Premiere CC 2014

    Hi. I am having an issue where effects and key frames applied to both audio and video are not working, but only sometimes. Even after I render or export the video, the effects are not showing up. For example, trying to adjust volume using key-frames on some clips works fine, and not at all on others. The key-frames show up and I can see the volume changing in the effects panel, but it is not happening. Another example is changing the opacity on some video clips and it does not work sometimes. Same thing, I can see the key-frames and the values changing, but it's not actually happening. I have uninstalled and re-installed premiere pro and media encoder with no luck. I have uninstalled and re-installed the latest Nvidia drivers with no luck. Just to restate, this only happens on some clips and rendering or exporting the video does not help. My computer specs are:
    MSI GT60 Laptop:
    Intel Core i7 4800MQ (2.70GHz)
    16GB Memory 1TB HDD 128GB SSD
    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 880M 8GB
    2880 x 1620 16:9 3K Display
    Windows 8.1 64-Bit

    Here is the exact screenshot.  Now I'm also trying other effects as stated in my original post.  But this effect is just an example.  Is there really something that I'm doing wrong here?  Or am I forgetting something?  Is there some special "adobe doesn't let keyframes work on mpg's" rule or something silly like that?
    I wish that I could post a video, but I don't know how.
    Please let me know what I need to do to make this work properly.

  • Itunes 11.1.3 for windows 7 not working

    I have the same issue as the one mentioned on this page and have tried the solutions, but they have not worked for me.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4123
    I've also looked at this long forum discussing the same issue, but it is about an older version of iTunes
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2770908?start=0&tstart=0
    The same message still hangs on my launcher, "Accessing iTunes Store", for an indefinite amount of time and it doesn't change.
    I have installed itunes on a separate Windows Vista laptop, and it has the same issue.
    The mulititude of proposed solutions in the aforementioned articles have not worked for me. What can I do, and any help is greatly appreciated

    Can you check something for me please? I'd like to try doing a "Run as administrator" on your iTunes.
    Quit iTunes first.
    In Computer, open Local Disk C: or whichever drive you have your program files installed on.
    If you have a 32-bit Windows, open the "Program files" folder.
    If you have a 64-bit Windows, open the "Program Files (x86)" folder.
    Open the "iTunes" folder.
    Right-click on the iTunes.exe file and select "run as administrator".
    Can you access the Store now?
    (Permissions issues can sometimes mimic other problems ... if that's what is going on, the "Run as administrator" thing can sometimes get past the issue.)
