Media Manager - Can I alphabetize the Artists?

When I browse by artist through my STB they appear to be in random order.  This makes it real difficult to find anything.  How does media manager choose the order to display the Artists.  Maybe I'm missing something.  I have over 500 artists on my PC and even though i'm only sharing about 100 of them with my STB I'm always going nuts trying to find what i'm looking for.
Just an aside, I love the idea of the Media Manager but the interface and lack of preferences leave A LOT to be desired.  I feel like i'm always fighting with the thing to do what I want.  I hope they do better on the new version, if it ever gets released.

Until Verizon sorts this out, does anybody know where the Media Manager stores the music list on the PC. I could at least perform a manual sorting until the software gets smarter.

    There is a date and time Title you can use. If I recall correctly, it displays date plus hours and minutes, but not seconds.

  • V Cast Media Manager won't recognize the Fascinate/device driver not downloading(available)

    I have installed V Cast media manager to my desktop system.  When I connect my Fascinate, the computer recognizes that "new hardware" is found, but can't locate the driver so it will connect with VCastMM.
    Has anyone else experienced this yet?
    Is there an easy fix to this?
    I did set the USB to sync with media player and that still didn't work.

    click on the usb icon on the top of the screen and it should allow you access your phone on ur computer! you dont actually need to use media manager. just open it up as if it were a flash drive. 

  • Can't delete the Artist Name

    In one of my imported songs (from an LP) I decided that the Artist Name is wrong. I don't know the name, so I just deleted it from the Artist field in the Info window, and clicked Okay. But the name reappears the next time I open the information window. Same thing when I try to delete the Artist Name in list view. I highlight it and hit the delete key, but it comes back as soon as I click out of it. This is the only song on the entire album that does that. I can delete the Artist name on any other song and it stays deleted.

    I just asked a similar question, but in reading your question figured out the answer to mine.  The problem comes from the source being the LP.  Are you running windows?  If so, does the album show up in your music folder?  If so, first delete the song from iTunes. Then click on the song, then "organize," then "properties," then "details", then change whatever you want, then reimport it into iTunes.

  • Device Manager Can not recognise the Camera

    From the first day I installed my iPhone the camera would not connect to my PC. In the device manager my camera comes up in Imaging devices as "iPhone" with an ! inside a yellow circle (Not Triangle)I have deleted the driver and reinstalled it several times, and it is as if it can not find the driver or it does not exist. I also deleted the USB "Apple Mobile Device USB Driver" and reinstalled it and rebooted several times. In the device manager I believe the device should come up under Imaging devices as "Apple iPhone" instead of just "iPhone".
    iTunes syncs fine and I can even send photos to the iPhone to the photos app as an album, but I can not get the iPhone photos off the phone except via email
    Does anybody know the solution to this problem?

    Oh my gosh! I was having this problem, too! I found the solution, tho. It really worked!
    I was having a pretty serious problem that started when I upgraded to iPhone 3.1. While iTunes recognized my iPhone, iPhoto didn't.
    And if I opened iPhoto, I couldn't see the camera. Same with Image Capture - it said no device detected. I know there was no problem in 3.0.
    Luckily, there are other ways to get the photos off the iPhone, and luckily iTunes recognizes the phone, but that of course is not the point.
    Good news is that I believe I found the fix. Click through and I'll see if I can explain it.
    For some reason, it has to do with photos saved to the camera roll that were not shot with the iPhone. In other words, photos saved from email or screenshots. I have no idea why that would be, but once I deleted the non-shot photos, iPhoto launched normally and all was right with the world.
    The problem is mentioned several times in the Apple support forums and everyone with it is running iPhone 3.1 and Snow Leopard 10.6.1. Restoring the iPhone, rebooting and repairing permissions from the Snow Leopard disc has no effect. The only fix I've found is my weird one.
    Anyone else seeing this problem? Anyone find a different fix? Please let me know in the comments or interact with me on Twitter or Facebook.
    Thanks and thanks for calling.

  • Cisco Unified Operation Manager: can not see the Campus manager

    Dear all,
    I have installed the CUOM to manage my IPT system. I have successfully installed without any errors. The system now can detect all IPT system components but I have a problem. From the Tool on Service Level View, I only the option for Alert History and can not see the option for Campus manager to customize the topology (like the tool on Ciscoworks LMS).
    Please give me some advices.
    Thank you,
    Thanh

    On the administration page, you will be able to see "View Reports For" header on the top.
    Under that header you will see the following fields:
    User ID/Type/Last/Status/Folder /Instance
    Above values will be used by PeopleSoft to filter and display the list of reports
    If the user has selected Status as Processing and saved the page, PeopleSoft will only show reports which are in Processing status.
    If user runs a report and it has been posted, it will not show up in report manager coz the filter value is set to Processing.
    Hope this helps. I dont think Permissions has anything to do with this since user is able to view the page.

  • Media Manager can not copy file error 47

    In editing a program together, I converted a powerpoint presentation using keynote into a Quicktime movies using the DV settings. All well and good and I have output this to tape and DVD. Now, when I try to use Media Manager to make a trimmed down archival copy with extraneous materials removed, the program reports it cannot copy this DV movie. The error reported is 47. What's up?
    I am using a completely upgraded FCP 4.5 on a G5 with 1.5 GB RAM and hard disk space galore.

    Through my research I believe the "error 47" must relate to an imcompatible frame rate from your native sequence frame rate. I've done the tests and once I changed the frame rate of the problem clip(through conversion), I no longer had any problems.
    Where is there a list of these error codes? That would be nice.

  • Media Manager Can't See WMV file

    I installed Verizon Media Manager and I have a family video created in Windows Live Movie Maker that is a WMV file. Media Manager did not pick it up in a scan and when I tried to add it manually, I got an error that said I'm trying to scan a corrupt or unsupported file format. I also converted the file to an AVI and got the same error. All files play on my computer in Windows Media Player with no issue.
    Video originated off a Canon HD video recorder.
    Any ideas? Would really like to play the video on my TV.

    If some AVI's are playing, then its a problem with Windows Movie Maker program and how it exports. I am sorry that our program will not meet your needs.

  • Can't access the artist in "now playing" screen

    In the "now playing" screen, we can see all the songs on that particular album (hitting the 3 red lines in top right corner) which is cool.  But why can't we get a link to the artist?  Sometimes I'd like to hear other songs from that artist on different albums but have to back all the way out, scroll to artist, and find the song.  Doesn't seem reasonable to have a direct link to the artists' collection from the "now playing" screen?
    Discuss.

  • Why can you see the artist in some albums and not others

    Some albums are showing the songs with the artist underneath. In Lady Gaga's album grid it is like this
    Song: 'Bad Romance'
    Artist:  Lady Gaga
    Then other album grid its just the song title. Why is that? I would like it one or the other. I have OCD when it comes to things like this.
    PLEASE someone help me!!!!
    Thanks

    that happens to me too.I think its because when it happens to me its because theres more than 2 artists (not bands or stuff)or the cd has been burned so it is not the original.
    Hope this helped :?
