Media Manager On The Mac - OSX

Anyone have an idea when this will be available?

But why? Media Manager is a poorly written application that has very little support. They *finally* released a patch after months, but still no video support. It doesn't run very well on a PC and, in my experience, often loses its connection with the DVR. Can't tell you how many times I tried to pull up pictures on the DVR and it failed to connect, often resulting in me being somewhat embarrassed and having to reset either the router, the DVR, or the application to finally get it to work while my family/friends just wait around.
You would be 1000x better off just getting an AppleTV. I have one now and it's so much easier to use. The slideshow/screensaver features are really really nice. Music: awesome. Videos: awesome (although it's limited to mp4/m4v formats). I now have over 200 movies converted and stored on my Mac ready to be viewed any time. Youtube: awesome.
A PS3 or Xbox360 is equally awesome in its abilities to stream pics, movies, music, etc.

Media Manager Flexview Sync - Upload Failure - Mac Lion

I am having difficulty with Media Manager on a Mac with Lion.
Syncing to the Flex View Library either stops as soon as it starts, or stops part way through the upload. This happens even if I upload just one photo. When syncing starts, the progress bar moves like a turtle before the process stalls.
I tried syncing photos from a Win7 pc and that worked fine.
I'd appreciate any suggestions on how to resolve this (other than "don't use the mac" ).

when i try to sync my content to flex view via media manager i'm told i must first "register". What's that mean and where do i register? i too am on lion.

shocklizzard,
I'm sorry that there was previously no support for Snow Leopard. However, the latest version of MM for Mac (v1.1) includes support for that OS.
Make sure you uninstall the previous version (if you haven't already) first.
Keep us posted with your progress!!!

Roxio Media Manager Mac

Hello,
I just downloaded Roxio Media Manager for Mac. Does the Mac version not have the media portion in the software? On the Desktop Manager I just get the information such as Calander, Contacts etc..
Thanks JR

start- run, type
msconfig and press OK
clcik on STARTUP tab at the top, right down whats either checked or unchecked(whichever is the smallest option)
click disable all button
click on the SERVICES tab at the top
at the bottom click checkmark in "hide all microsoft services"
again write down what is or isnt checked(smallest option)
click DISABLE ALL button
restart PC
when you boot up you get a popup saying you ahve used the MS config utility, place check mark in box and click OK
next open the internet and download
Windows Installer CleanUp Utilityinstall program and run it, in the list find anything blackberry, roxio, research in motion, or installer related. remove them
next we are going to perform a clean uninstall of DTM
http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=KB02206&sliceId=1&docTy...
anywhere in the DOC, if it tells you to delete research in motion, also delete roxio if you see it.
then you can go back to MSCONFIG and put your startup and services back to the way they were
then get the latest desktop manager 5.0, if you dont plan on using media manager, dont install it, its a resource hog

Do you have a secondary router between your computer and the Verizon router? This maybe a stupid question but was media manager running on the computer when you tried to access it from the TV?

That would be really nice if they did. I was abbout to push the buton for the Media Manager a few weeks ago so we could manage our DVR through the web and saw it said "Windows only." I sent a question about it to Support and got back boilerplate about "how to tell if your Windows PC has a virus" and "why is the internet connection slow on my PC?". useless...

When you get the error asking if you want to restore the windows, are you getting an option to either say "yes" or "no"? If you do, which option are you clicking on? Let us know when you're able. Thanks!

IPad and Media Manager Issues

I just installed the Verizon Media Manager App on my iPad and it will not pull anything from my pc. It keeps telling me to register. It lets me sign in with my id, lets me bookmark things, but I cannot pull media from my PC. It is very frustrating. Want to be able to view flex view stuff for the kids while on the road and cannot. Also cannot find the fios on demand app in the App store. Please help. The other app that is not working at all is the MY VZ account app. I cannot check bills, pay bills, check email or anything you should be able to do with it. If the app's are buggy, pull them. Please advise with any solutions.

Here's the master page for all of Verizon's apps. Right now only the Media Manager app is available for iPad.
In order to view your personal media, it must first be uploaded to your FlexView Library. This can be done using the Media Manager application on your PC or Mac.
The Media Manager iPad app also allows you to stream Flex View movies and TV shows you have purchased from Verizon, whether you bought it on your set-top-box, PC or phone. In other words, it also serves as the FiOS On Demand app.

Media Manager: What features do work? What doesn't?

Hi,
For those people for whom the media manager works, what works? What doesn't? What version of FCP and MacOS are you using?
I've just spent the last several hours trying to reconnect clips by hand after FCP 5.0.4 crashed while using the Media Manager to consolidate Media Files into one folder (from the manual volume 4 pg 104-105) for archiving. I am beginning to despair. Luckily I've done this after writing out what should be the final version of my project to DVD, so if I can't succeed, as long as I don't need to edit anything I should be ok.
I can tell you what's not working for me: the workflow of capture-now an entire miniDV tape to disk. I've tried many different approaches, and everything seems broken. I am using Mac OS X 10.3.9 and FCP 5.0.4.
Specifically the aspects of Media Manager which are broken for me:
1) (page 103) Removing Portions of Media Files after creating subclips. "A common logging and capturing workflow involves capturing each tape to a single media file, breaking the master clip into subclips, and then using the Media Manager to create individual media files for each subclip."
That is just plain broken. Even when I delete the master file as recommended, it does not break up the media file into individual files for the subclips. I've seen that problem referenced here before. Creating subclips from the subclips and removing subclip limits gives me the entire 1 hr tape again, when all I want is the smaller portion which does not cross DV start/stop boundaries.
Talking with a creative helper at the Palo Alto Apple store I learned that if you don't delete any media between clips, it doesn't make a file break. I have not tested that, instead I used the alternate workflow he proposed of selecting my subclips (created from the markers made with DV start/stop detect) ctrl-click -> batch export, item settings: make movie self contained. Unfortunately, I discovered the hard way that that workflow introduces errors in the time code, making recapturing the project to reconstruct it impossible.
2) Consolidating Media Files into one folder (pg 104-105) - This is also broken and caused FCP to quit unexpectedly. Both the source and destination disk had enough disk space to hold two or more copies of the entire project. What's worse, although I've been able to reconnect most of the clips created using the batch export process menioned above, some of them complain that they need the complete 1-hr clip to play properly. Those clips were deleted weeks ago, and I was able to edit and work on the project successfully without them. Why are they needed now? The small clips do appear on disk, I can see them but they won't play without the long file.
Nothing I've tried with the media manager has worked. Has anything worked for you? I'm especially interested if you use the "capture now" feature to capture 1-hr tapes and log later.
Thanks,

I use MM all the time, but only for certain things. I can share some observations:
If you are using MM to "Create Offline - Remove Unused", the original media all needs to be present in order for the unused media to be removed from the offline clips MM creates. This is they way I use MM all the time - capturing long clips at RT or DV quality, and then removing unused media with MM, recapturing at high quality.
I might try to use MM to copy media used in a certain sequence, but I would never try to move the media in a way that would automatically remove or alter any of my already captured media. If FCP crashed in the middle of the operation (perhaps it hits a file with incorrect permissions) your media will be half-moved, and some of the media might get corrupted. I have reassembled a few projects like this for friends and it was not easy.
Speed adjusted clips - I still see TC issues every now and then when using MM on speed-adjusted clips - here is my workaround: I go through my edited sequence and pick out as many of the speed-adjusted clips as I can find, copying and pasting them into a new sequence, where I remove the speed adjustments. I include this new sequence in my selection when I initiate MM, this creates new master clips for the speed-adjusted material that are guaranteed to come up with the correct in and out points. If during my re-assembly I find that and of these clips have a problem, I know there will be enough media in the master clip to replace the speed-adjusted media without having to log and capture a new clip.
One major bug in MM I have found with FCP5 is that when using MM to convert a DV sequence to an Uncompressed offline sequence, any graphics or animation movie files (animation codec) can no longer be rendered at full quality without replacing them one by one. My last project had 70 of these files in a 1-hour program.

Using Media Manager to 'Make Offline' it re-names media files to 'Private'

For some reason Media Manager is changing the name of media files when processing them making it impossible to reconnect them.
My director always has a complete copy of our film's media files on his 'home set-up' (FCP 5.0 on a Powerbook with 2 x 500gb firewire drives) so he can look at our cuts at home. This has caused problems in the past with firewire drives expiring or failing to mount: making the whole process pointless. Also, as the amount of footage increased, he struggled to find space for the 6-8 drives required.
My solution was to down-convert our DV resolution media files to Photo-Jpeg resolution which allowed me to fit 3TB of footage onto 2 brand new G-Tech drives. Every time I sent him a cut to view all I had to do was use media manager to make the sequence offline and convert it to exactly the same Photo-Jpeg setting I used to export the files. All he has to do is reconnect the sequence to his drives at his end.
A wonderful plan except when you came to reconnecting. I found that 95% of clips connect perfectly and then you get asked for the location of some media files called 'Trashes' 'Applications' or more commonly, 'Private'. Obviously no such files existed - I use an impeccably organised and structured filename system when capturing. Therefore it made random clips in my sequence impossible to reconnect once it had been converted to the settings used by the director.
When this only happened once or twice I thought I could easily just work out what files it was actually looking for by the clip names on the timeline and tell FCP to reconnect to the correct file by ignoring the file name but this is so time consuming and impractical when you have 20/30 clips that have been renamed on a sequence. It is also not the sort of thing my director is technically capable/willing to do.
It also seems to be happening when you convert things in the other direction. When I took a sequence from the director's project and brought it back onto my system by converting his sequence to my DV-PAL settings we got the same problems with 'Private and 'Applications' clips. And we know for sure that all of these clips were online on his computer.
Has anyone seen this before or know any steps I could take to prevent it happening.
I fear that if I can't get this method to work I will have to give him full resolution media to work with and I will be fated to spend the rest of my days replacing. smashing or swearing at firewire drives that only work when they feel like it.
Anybody got any ideas.
Cheers

haven't tried this but it may be worth some investigation.
try exporting an XML of your sequence and passing that to the director
on the director's FCP setup, import the xml, and in the Import XML... window uncheck the "Override with setting from XML" checkbox, and choose the approriate offline res that matches the directors media.
see if the resulting sequence will reconnect

MEDIA MANAGER NOT HANDLING AFTER EFFECTS 7.0 RENDERS

There can be problems with media manager if your source clips do not have a reel associated with them (as happens with imported files as opposed to captured material). Try creating a tape name in the browser for these clips. This may solve your problem.
