Media Manager & Digital Desktop Display

Hi,
I've captured HDV footage to ProRes and all that is ok. I wanted to use Media Manager to recompress to a lower bit rate format for mobile editing. All that is fine, too.
The problem I'm having is when I'm editing with the new (recompressed footage) and using the digital cinema desktop display:
When I use preset formats from the media manager list, the digital cinema desktop function works fine. When I create a custom setting in the media manager (recompressing) the digital cinema desktop display function stays still on the first frame and only changes when I stop it (and it changes to the frame where I stopped).
Any solution or ideas are welcome.
Thanks,
Matt

Thanks for the answer.
Well, after much experimenting with workflow (some time ago) I had decided upon always capturing to ProRes from the camera. My system seems to work smoother (therefore I work faster) with the ProRes than with the HDV.
In any case, it was near identical.
In this case, what I really need is to create two sets of media. I need something very small and portable for this edit, while keeping the ProRes (or original HDV) on my main computer for when I'm there.
I just get better results (higher quality with a lower bit rate) when I do custom settings in Media Manager, but then the digital cinema desktop display stops working.
Thanks for the input, but this media manager issue is my real problem.
Cool,
Matt

Media Manager - Images tranferred - Displays a red X

Have 8703e BB. Have Internet Services turned off directly by Sprint - don't need it and do not want to be charged for the non-communication Casual Data Usage (a slick illegal method cell phone companies charge when internet services are turned off - had to file federal charges before they took it off my bill). Can't download ringtones or pictures.
Tried to transfer ringtones and images a while ago and Media Manager would not recognize my device. Finally found out that without an external card, the Media Manager would not recognize my device.
However, just installed the new OS and Desktop Manager 4.2.2.14 with Media Manager and it recognizes my device!
I transferred a ringtone from my PC to my device and...YES...Viva La Vida plays!!!!
BUT, two images I transferred show up with a generic image thumbnail and the picture displayed is just a small red X in the upper left hand corner. Yet, when I highlight the folder in the device in Media Manager, the pictures display very clearly.
To also clarify, the pictures reside in MEDIA>PICTURES>DEVICE MEMORY
Under properties for the folder, the file path is - /Device Memory/home/user/pictures
The sizes of the pictures are 37KB and 65KB, hardly any different than the images in the Preloaded Pictures folder, which path is /Device Memory/samples/pictures
Is this a BB issue or Media Manager issue? As I said, the ringtone transferred and works, the images transferred and are listed, but don't display. Anyone have a solution to this problem?
I've reset the device by taking the battery out, etc. Nothing. Pictures still give me the red x.
Thanks,
Dan

Ok, so this has been driving me nuts for such a long time. I did everything that anyone suggested and nothing worked. This included creating a new temp internet files folder, checking and unchecking all the appropriate boxes, creating a new profile, and
most other things suggested. Then I cam across something on a forum (sorry I don't know the link) that made me think. I looked through the reg to the key HKCU>Software>Microsoft>Office>15.0
(I use outlook 2013 but previous versions of office were there as well.)>Outlook>Security>OutlookSecureTempFolder. My setting was C:\Users\"USER"\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\TIF\Temporary Internet Files\Content.Outlook\B5U77NH4\.
NOTE: TIF is where I chose to create the new Temporary Internet Files folder. Ur most likely will be different or not there at all!!!
What I realized was that the last folder in this setting was different that the actual folder on my harddrive. So I edited just the last folder B5U77NH4 to be the same as the folder on my HDD. WALA this worked and works great currently. All the other fixes
sometimes worked for a short while but always reverted back. I do have to say though that prior to doing this I went into Internet Options and deleted all the browsing history. EVERYTHING it sucked for freq visited websites but I wanted to start fresh.
Then I physically selected every item that was still in my Temp Internet files folder, even B5U77NH4 and manually deleted every item. That way any folder that was created dynamically would be gone. What was left and would not delete was B5U77NH4 so that is
the folder I chose to copy into the registry.
]This has been so frustrating but now it seems to work. I hope this helps.

Where is the Media Manager in Desktop 6.0.0.40 ??????

Last night the BlackBerry Desktop Manager wanted to do an update. I've done these updates in the past so I thought it would be safe.
This new version - 6.0.0.40 (Released August 3, 2010 Bundle 42) does not have the Roxio Media manager. I have to be able to copy files between the BlackBerry file system and my PC. Not just from the music, pictures and video directories. I have files in other locations of the file system for my application.

I too had the same problem not being able to access any of my files in device memory after upgrading to DM6. Mass storage device is turned on. I posted this issue on Aug 12 with no reply from RIM/BB with a fix. I therefore was forced to reinstall DM5 with Roxio Media Manager and can once again access all my files on my device and move them around. Now I have two DM'S running on my desktop. As I stated in my post, I'm not impressed with DM6 at all! Why release something that doesn't work? In my opinion it's a downgrade!

Media Manager on Desktop Manager

I just download the 4.3 version of desktop manager to see if it would solve my issue of not being able to download more than 1 GB of music on a 2 GB media card. Now there is not Media Manager option but the help tells me to use media manager. Any idea how i transfer music from my computer to my BB 8800 with the new desktop manager?

It is possible the Media manager did not get installed for whatever reason. Do you see Roxio Media manager listed in the start or Add/Remove programs menu?

Media manager in Desktop manager not working

Hi
for some reason my Media Manager is not highlighted so I can't select it in my Blackberry Desktop Manager.
Any ideas?
Cheers

Few things
1. What OS are you running
2. Check to make sure that you do not have any anti spyware software blocking the app
3. make sure the firewall is not blocking it like Zonealarm.
4 did you get any errors when you installed it
5. uninstall the app and make sure you delete the folder as well
"C:\Program Files\Research In Motion\BlackBerry and reinstall it

Media Manager won't display/transfer images from the Blackberry

Recently two workstaions have had their media manager stop working. When the blackberry is hooked up to the PC and viewed in Media Manager, the images on the blackberry come up as gray with a tiny strip of image pixels at the very top. When the images are transfered to the PC they hold on to this. When the images are emailed from the blackberry to the PC the images come across just fine.
We have reinstalled to no avail.
Workstations are XP 2 with all service packs except SP 3. Blackberry desktop 4.3

Had the same issues. We're in crackberry purgatory. This is what I had to do and it works fine now.
delete the current version of blackberry desktop manager from your computer (roxio is junk)
go to blackberry website and go to downloads
download desktop manager version 4.2.1 (last most reliabe version for folks with current media manager issues)
From there I had to connect the blackberry via usb
open my pictures and in another window go to my computer and open the blackberry
drag and drop the pics you want from my pictures to the blackberry.
Worked with no problems and it was super fast. Pics show up great.
Hope it helps.

BB Desktop / Roxio Media Manager Problems

Seriously, how does anyone use this software? I'm using the latest 4.7 version. Connecting my Storm up to my PC (Windows Vista), the overall response time is so slow that it is almost painful to watch. Issues -
1. Checks for applications updates everytime I click on a function? Really? This just happened when I launched the application - why does it do it everytime I click on Add application, manage media, etc?
2. Roxio Media Manager - this is about the most painful piece of software I've ever used. Did anyone really QA this before shipping it? Slow, slow, and slow. No indication that it is doing anything after you click on an action. Half the time it doesn't do anything! Moving media files, pictures, etc should take this long. Even navigating the local file system shouldn't take 30 - 60 seconds to do.
BB - any updates coming? It feels like this was rushed out before it was fully developed....

Research shows:
1. (thanks to my friend John Clark for this instructional) To prevent this from happening this you need to install Desktop Manager WITHOUT this Automatic Update service. Below are the steps to remove this service.
1. Go to Control Panel >Add/Remove Programs.
2. Click on "BlackBerry Desktop Software" and select "Change/Remove."
3. When prompted, hit "Next" and then you should get options for Modify, Repair, or Remove. Choose "Modify."
4. On DM 4.7 and higher, in the list of installed items, you should see "BlackBerry Automatic Update." Click the icon next to it and change it to "This feature will not be available." That should put an "X" next to "BlackBerry Automatic Update." If you are using DM 4.6 or lower and don't see this option in this list then just continue with the install and the installation will ask you a few screens later. A screen will be shown where you will be asked to check the boxes for:
A) "Start BlackBerry Desktop Manager automatically each time the computer starts."
B) "Create a shortcut for BlackBerry Desktop Manager on the Windows Desktop."
C) "Check for software updates."
Be sure number 3, "Check for software updates," is NOT checked.
2. Yes the Roxio software is buggy to me as well. I don't install it and life stays good. Use Mass Storage Mode enabled on your Media Card (Options > Media Card) and then you can drag/drop files from your PC to the Media Card as it will appear simply as a removable drive.

Can't install or uninstall Desktop software and Roxio Media Manager has taken over

I had been having trouble with the Blackberry Desktop software crashing each time I closed it when I was done using it. This morning when I booted my computer I got an error message that said RoxWatchTray9 was unable to locate component. When I tried to close that box it attempted to install something but it just stalls. When I close try to cancel it just freezes. After while it tries to install again only to freeze again.
I figured the best solution would be to uninstall and reinstall the program but when I went into Add/Remove I discovered six listings for Blackberry Device Software for Blackberry 9530 smartphone, one for v5.0 and five for v4.7.0. I finally managed to uninstall the v5.0 at the top of the list but I can't remove the other five. I also can't reinstall the program. Roxio Media Manager continues attempting to force an install and is hogging my system resources. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
Try this process (you might have to do step 2 multiple times for each instance of what is showing in add/remove programs):
I suggest the following steps (insert plenty of reboots of your PC...not just restarts, but full power down reboots). Also, it is advised that you be logged into the PC on an account with full admin rights. Further, under Vista/WIN7, use the "Run As Administrator" option for everything.
1) Remove your device OS update package from your PC (add/remove programs)
2) Cleanly uninstall the RIM DTM software:
KB02206 How to perform a clean uninstall of BlackBerry Desktop Software
3) Get a fresh download of the RIM DTM software:
https://www.blackberry.com/Downloads/entry.do?code=A8BAA56554F96369AB93E4F3BB068C22
Choose the version that is newest and (if applicable) compatible with your PIM (if you are synchornizing via USB):
KB12268 Applications supported by BlackBerry Desktop Manager for synchronization
4) Download (to your PC) a fresh copy of your device OS package from your carrier:
http://na.blackberry.com/eng/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
5) Install DTM to your PC
6) Install (also to your PC), the device OS package
7) Start the organizer configuration over:
KB17022 How to configure organizer applications for synchronization using BlackBerry Desktop Manager
Hopefully that will get things going again. You might also want to avoid Media Manager unless you really really need it.
Good luck and let us know!

Desktop Manager - Media Manager - Crash

Desktop Manager seems to work fine. When I access Media Manager the app crashes.
Desktop Mgr 5.0.0.11
Windows7 x86
whats the fix/workaround?

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
Windows7? I don't think that DTM and MM are yet certified for that platform... So, there are no official RIM KB's on the matter just yet. I seem to recall other posts here somewhere that talked about some sort of compatibility mode in Win7? Not having it myself, I've no idea...but you might try some searches in these forums to see if it's been discussed (I think it has).
Good luck!

Blackberry desktop media manager won't open

I have no problem syncing my contacts, calendar items etc, using the desktop; I can even transfer media files no problem directly onto my media card. But when I try to use desktop manager media manager it won't open. When I double click on it it thinks for a second then does nothing. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks.

have you had a previous version of DTM installed before?
do you have an active start button for media manager?
check add/remove programs and see if you have any other roxio, or ezcd creator software
have you tried syncing just contacts, or just calendar?
do you get any errors?
what version of DTM do youhave installed?

Digital Desktop Cinema Display Preview Video Not Playing

I can't get the Digital Desktop Cinema Display to work on either a 2nd display or on the main display. The audio plays correctly and the video will update to the current frame when stopped, but no playing video. I have "All frames" selected. In "Single Frames", the screen just stays black while the audio plays.
I have done a clean install of Lion and reinstalled FCP with the update to 7.0.3. I have a Matrox MXO, but so far have left in out of the new clean install.
I have deleted the preferences, repaired permissions, check the disk, emptied the trash and restarted. Mirror on desktop unchecked. I believe that these are all the suggestions from previous posts.
Suggestions?
Configuration:
FCP 7.0.3
Mac OS 10.7.3
MBP 2.6 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
4 GB Ram
750 GB disk, measures at about 80-100 mB/s with AJA tool.
NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT 512 MB
One clip in timeline, both ProRes Proxy.

Have you had a look under audio/video settings ? I had a similar issue and that is where the problem lay.. in the playback tab
