Media Duration

As an editor using the full Production Studio, I find Bridge to be the beginning of an invaluable tool when it comes to organizing my media assets. But there are still quite a few bugs to be worked out, and a few missing features I consider essential.
One essential feature is the ability of Bridge to display the duration of media assets, both audio and video. Audio assets in any legitimate audio file format, whether .wav, .mp3, .ogg, etc, should have the duration of the song displayed both in the Metadata window and under the file itself, along with the name, date, etc. Video assets absolutely
must have this feature as well. Organizing clips
requires such basic information as clip duration.

How do I export a LIST of "Media Duration" from Premiere CC?

I have over 100 clips in Adobe Premiere. I can easily read their "Media Duration" within the project, but I have to log the media duration to an excel doc and typing out each file's individual media duration would be very timely since I have over 100 files. So I want to export a batch list that includes a "media duration" column. So I select all of my footage, and I press export -> Batch List. And it gives me some CSV files with NO "media duration" column in the document. It only gives me IN and OUT metadata in the CSV file. I want "media duration" metadata in the CSV Batch List. Final Cut Pro 6 and 7 had this feature, but I don't use FCP any more. How can I get Premiere to do this? It doesn't seem like a wild request. Is this something that Adobe Bridge or Adobe Prelude could do? (could they export a batch list with metadata of Media Durations?) I've searched for the answer to this question maybe a year ago and never found an answer. PLEASE HELP!
Adobe, please add this feature if it doesn't exist already. If it does exist, please tell me how to get Premiere to generate a list of Media Durations for me.

Jerry this did not solve the problem for me. I have Media Duration listed in my metadata WITHIN Premiere. I exported the CSV file from Adobe Premiere, and opened it in Open Source. Open source prompted to me to choose some settings, so I made sure to choose Unicode and comma like you said. And the results did NOT give me media duration at all. The only metadata that showed up on my CSV file was IN and OUT points.... What am I doing wrong??? If you look carefully at the last screenshot I provided, columns A through D are the ONLY things that showed up. Those are In and Out points. I don't see media duration at all. PLEASE HELP!

Video Length / media duration property

Hi,
Which managed / crawled property is used for media duration (video length)? i see there is one managed property named media duration that is mapped to the crawled property ows_MediaDuration - does it means that it'll work only on videos from SharePoint Libraries
and not video from file share?
keren tsur

It is ows_MediaLengthInSeconds

JMediaPlayer - get media duration, current playback time ... etc

Hello everybody,
I can't seem to find API calls for the following purposes:
- get media duration
- get current playback time
- set current playback time
Does anybody know how to get/set those values?
By the way, I'm embedding the JMediaPlayer within a Swing application, not developing a classic FX tool.
Thank you in advance,
r.

To best learn JavaFX and its API and class of what it can do or not do, do learn to decompile the code into Java. You will find most of your answer there (though you may find it limit in understanding Java class compiled from JavaFX Script source)
First of all, the decompiled JMediaPlayer show the following code
package com.sun.media.jmc;
import com.sun.media.jmcimpl.PlayerControlPanel;
import java.awt.BorderLayout;
import java.net.URI;
import javax.swing.JComponent;
// Referenced classes of package com.sun.media.jmc:
// JMediaPane, MediaUnavailableException, MediaUnsupportedException, MediaCorruptedException,
// MediaInaccessibleException
public class JMediaPlayer extends JComponent
public JMediaPlayer()
mediaPane = new JMediaPane();
setLayout(new BorderLayout());
add(mediaPane, "Center");
add(controlPanel = new PlayerControlPanel(mediaPane), "South");
controlPanel.setPlayEnabled(false);
public JMediaPlayer(URI uri)
throws MediaUnavailableException, MediaUnsupportedException, MediaCorruptedException, MediaInaccessibleException
mediaPane = new JMediaPane(uri);
setLayout(new BorderLayout());
add(mediaPane, "Center");
add(new PlayerControlPanel(mediaPane), "South");
public void play()
mediaPane.play();
public void stop()
mediaPane.stop();
public void pause()
mediaPane.pause();
public void setSource(URI uri)
throws MediaUnsupportedException, MediaUnavailableException, MediaCorruptedException, MediaInaccessibleException
if(mediaPane != null)
mediaPane.setSource(uri);
if(controlPanel != null)
controlPanel.setPlayEnabled(true);
public URI getSource()
return mediaPane.getSource();
public float setVolume(float f)
return mediaPane.setVolume(f);
public float getVolume()
return mediaPane.getVolume();
public void setMute(boolean flag)
mediaPane.setMute(flag);
public boolean isMute()
return mediaPane.isMute();
public void setRepeating(boolean flag)
if(mediaPane != null)
mediaPane.setRepeating(flag);
public boolean isRepeating()
if(mediaPane != null)
return mediaPane.isRepeating();
else
return false;
public void setAutoPlay(boolean flag)
mediaPane.setAutoPlay(flag);
public boolean isAutoPlay()
return mediaPane.isAutoPlay();
private JMediaPane mediaPane;
private PlayerControlPanel controlPanel;
The core object is JMediaPane with API to do what you want.
mediaPane.setMediaTime(_timeSec); // Set media time
mediaPane.getDuration(); // Get duration
mediaPane.getMediaTime(); // Get current playback time
Unfortunately, you cannot simply retrieve JMediaPane reference from JMediaPlayer because it has a private access modifier. Hence the only way is to create your own Player from the reference code above.

Difference between Media duration and Video duration

What is a difference because MEDIA DURATION value then VIDEO DURATION? I see no difference. I thought that MEDIA DURATION is all time of video from start to the end and a VIDEO DURATION is a total sum of this one video in my timeline. Added to each other.
I don't know... what is a difference?

So what is wrong in my video? I made this video to show how I do this. And like you see, numbers are the same.
What is wrong, tell me...
Nothing is "wrong" except your assumption in your original post.
In your examples, the media and video durations ARE the same, and that is why the numbers are the same. The numbers will be different only if you set an in and out point. The example Joe gave you illustrated that the numbers are different only when an in and/or out point is set that is less than the total length of the media.
Your assumption in the original post (that "MEDIA DURATION is all time of video from start to the end and a VIDEO DURATION is a total sum of this one video in my timeline. Added to each other.") is not correct - unless by video duration you mean the length of one clip from in to out point.

JavaFX media, duration

Hi there,
I am wondering why my JavaFX app cannot determine the duration of .flv file which is loaded. The output says that duration is "UNKNOWN". It would certainly help me to know the exact length of the video which I am playing.
I used .flv files from this link: http://www.mediacollege.com/adobe/flash/video/tutorial/example-flv.html
Thanks for any answer :)

The Media instance is initialized asynchronously for network-based sources so the duration might not be known as soon as the Media object is constructed. You should register a listener of the Media.duration property to be notified when the duration value becomes available.

Sequence In-Out Duration in the Project Panel?

Using Premiere Pro CC 2014.2, and wanting to view duration of in-out selections of multiple sequences in the Project panel before batch exporting via AME. The media duration display only shows full sequence length. Anybody have any ideas on how to view in-out duration in the project panel (I'm aware the duration shows up in the Program panel when a sequence is active).

searching for metadata fields, it seems to have no in/out duration. so might have to request for adobe to add it. Adobe - Feature Request/Bug Report Form
i did notice that if i load the sequence from the project bin into the source monitor, then change the in and out points to match the same as in the timeline, it will change the "video duration" metadata column to reflect the in/out duration. its also possible just to change the "video in point" and "video out point" metadata values in the project bin to get the matching video duration, bypassing the need to load the sequence into the source monitor. i also noticed when i export the sequence it will use the in/out on the timeline not the source monitor. this workaround adds extra steps, especially if changing the in/out points often.

JavaFX Media Loading, preloading

Hi... I'm developing a media player applet with a playlist on the web and what I want is to, when a media finishes loading, it starts to load the next song, so that the following media doesn't stall in slower connections or takes a long time to start...
but I couldn't find any reference to preload in JMC or JavaFX

I haven't programmed the media player yet, I'm still making some tests, so that I know how to do it....
but the idea is to have two javafx.scene.media.MediaPlayer and switch the players at a defined time.
related question, when I add a Media to a MediaPlayer, it automatically loads? or only when I start to play it?

Button not working in browser

I am coding a video player in Netbeans 6.8. just find two problems:
1. the browser button not working in browser when I run the project from Netbeans under "run in browser" mode. however under "standard execution" mode, everything is fine.
2. can not run the jar file in the project's dist directory directly. in other word, I can not run the jar file outside of Netbeans.
I appreciate any help. thanks.

thanks for your reply but I need more specific operation.
maybe I am not very clear about the problem one. I mean when I run the code in standard mode, if I click the browse button, a window will pop out and I can choose a video file from my local harddisk. but if I run it in "web start execution" mode and "run in browser" mode. the browse button make no response when I click it.

[Solved] Dolphin taking too much time to respond

Dolphin, while used by an ordinary user, takes too much time to respond, especially when firefox is running. The time it takes to initialize is also very lengthy. At times, it does not even open up and even if active, it hangs for quite sometime before being responsive again while trying to select a file or two.
At the same time, it works rather faster when called as super user through command line using $sudo dolphin
But then, the console displays lot of error messages as follows.

There's a large thread around about this Dolphin problem.

Sort order switches when changing from List to Thumbnail View

I can't seem to get the Thumbnail view to "lock" to the same sort order as the list view. I arrange by file name (or ingest date, or reverse media duration, or any of the other sortable metadata fields) in list view, but then when I click to the thumbnail view, the order seems to arbitrariliy change to some sort of preset. What's worse, it appears to be changing to something that's in a jumbled order.
This isn't a big deal if I only have 10 clips. If I have 100, or 1,000 clips though, they have to be in a sortable order for the thumbnail view to be of any use.
Thanks,
Eli

Hi,
Thanks for your post. Our current design doesn't support keeping order between list view and icon view. It would be good if you can drop that as a feature request / bug into the the forum.

Error in feeding JMF with inputstream, please help

Hi,
in order to feed JMF with inputstreams, audioinputstreams actually, you have to modify the DataSource.java and write a custom one so that it accepts inputstreams for the construction of the datasource, because with MediaLocator you can only specify existing files in the hard disk or somewhere in the network.
Searching I found this ByteBufferDataSource, which allows you to construct a DataSource from a ByteBuffer object.
The problem is that when using it and trying to send the stream via RTP to another machine, i get the following error:
Exception in thread "JMF thread: com.sun.media.ProcessEngine@d6a05e[ com.sun.media.ProcessEngine@d6a05e ] ( configureThread)" java.lang.NullPointerException

 at com.sun.media.StateTransitionWorkThread.run(BasicController.java:1339)
This error has appeared in some other post, but haven�t found the solution to it, I guess is something to do with the file format.
So please, I really need your help with this, as I�m getting stuck in a academical project because of this. I attach the bytebufferdatasource

bye

Variable Speed retiming

I'm sure this is an exceptionally easy one but time remapping has always befuddled my meager gray matter so I'm staring at my computer screens like a doof trying everything I can think of to solve my task at hand.
Take a video clip and play back in Real Time, ease into Slow Motion, ease back into Real Time and have the media duration increase accordingly, just as a broadcast replay from an EVS box would be. Is this possible with one layer in Motion?

Doof doesn't go far enough to explain my ignorance on this one.
While the above are helpful, I couldn't get the pixelcorp link to load and the Major's AE method can be done just as easily in Motion but it's still not what I want; it involves guess work/math work and I need to use a calculator for 2 + 2.
Mark Spencer to the rescue again. Page 194 of his "Motion 3" text.
The Set Speed behavior in the Retiming behaviors does exactly what I want. Easy easy easy.

Premiere CC Sequence length not automatically changing to last asset content.

For some reason my Premiere CC sequence is stuck at 12 minutes while the actual length of my assets is only 2.5 minutes. It's not automatically resizing to the location of the last asset on the timeline. What might be going on?

Where are you seeing the sequence duration reported as 12 minutes. The screenshot you posted gives no indication of duration. Please post another that shows the Program Monitor +/or the Project panel (with the Media Duration and Video Duration columns visible).
Edited to add: Okay, I think I see what has you confused: the Timeline extends to about 12 minutes. That has nothing to do with the sequence's duration. It's basically a function of the zoom level. If you press the minus key a few times, the Timeline will zoom out farther still.
To check the actual duration, check the time shown at the lower right corner of the Program Monitor. Note that if In/Out points are set in the sequence, the duration shown in the Program Monitor reflects the trimmed duration. If you want to see the full, untrimmed duration, either clear the In/Out points or consult the Media Duration column in the Project panel.

FCS2- Importing ( AVC HD) from Sony Hybrid HDRSR12

Hello to all FCS2 users.
(Please forgive me if this question has already been posted.)
I have a Mac G5 with Final Cut Studio 2.
I was in the midst of purchasing the Sony Hybrid HDRSR 12 camcorder, but... unbeknownst to me,
I discovered that I will not be able to import any video from its digital hard drive via FCS2, due to the fact that this particular SONY (tape-less) product can only work with a Mac that has the Intel chip. (?)
I spoke to someone at Sony about this enigma and they in turn informed me that there "might be" a plug-in/codec available for the regular Mac G5/Final Cut Pro 6.0.4 (Studio 2) users.
I hope this makes sense.
Does anyone know?
Please let me know before I am forced to purchase a Mini-DV camcorder.

Here's what I've been doing. I noted you already have the Mac hardware and OS covered; don't know if FCP6 (FCS2) is required for the SR12 as I only picked up FCS2 recently (was using FCE). Anyway,...
I've got the cradle/dock plugged directly into a USB port on the front of the Mac, not through a hub (don't know if it matters; don't have a hub to try it). With the SR12 docked, turning on the camera automatically brings up the "USB select" screen, at which point I'm choosing the top/left "USB connect" option (the one with the hard drive icon). The SR12 then tells me "Connected" - end of SR12 setup ("that was easy").
I've launched FCP and selected "Log and Transfer..." from the File menu. This brings up the Log and Transfer window; it briefly shows a "{camera_name} adding..." message, and then a list of clips with the (default) name, first frame still, volume name, media start (00:00:00;00) and media duration for each. If I select the first clip and click on "Add Selection to Queue", it begins transferring the clip. It shows a general status that implies it's transferring, but no elapsed or time remaining (which would be "nice"). Using an HC7 and Firewire, a 30 minute clip would take 30 minutes to "Log and Capture" in realtime; using the SR12, a 27:12;18 clip (recorded in FH mode) took approx. 24 minutes (I'm guessing lower quality/resolution clips would be smaller and consequently faster). Personally, I think the best advantage of the "Log and Transfer" method is that it's a background process; I can do other things (like this) while it's working.
Note: I didn't see any codec choices during the "Log and Transfer" process, although in the "tasks" menu (pop up menu with gear icon), under "preferences", there are two "sources" listed - both appear to default to the "Apple ProRes 422" option for video. For the "AVCHD Plugin" source (which I'm guessing applies in this case), there's an "Apple Intermediate Codec" transcode option, but selecting it doesn't give me any other sub-options for 50i or anything else, so I'm not sure where that comes in.
Hope this helps.
