Media Manager won't recompress as MOV from AVI

I have hours and hours of AVI files that were captured on a PC before I switched over. When I import into FCP, I get a warning saying the files aren't "optimized" for FCP, and that I should recompress using Media Manager.
I use Media Manager -- I choose recompress, and pick my destination, but it only creates more AVI files, not MOV files, and I can't figure out why?
When I try to import these new AVI files into my project, I get the same optimization warning... what am I doing wrong? (using FCP 5.1.4)

How about trying to convert in Quicktime rather than Media Mangler?

Media manager won't recompress media

I have some h264 .mp4 files that I want to recompress into motion jpeg files for offline editing on my Macbook Pro. I select the Media Manager options specified in the FCP Manual -- "Recompress using Offline RT (photo JPEG)," etc. -- but Media Manager won't recompress the files. It just copies the .mp4 project over to the project media folder that it creates.
I think I did this in the past and it worked, but it isn't working now. I also tried recompressing to Apple Intermediate Codec, and that isn't working either. I'm using FCP 5.1.4.
I can do the job by exporting individual files from Quicktime Pro but would much rather do it all at once with FCP. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanx,
Ralph

These are files from an SD card camera so have no natural reel numbe
Well, if you use Log and Transfer then FCP will assign it one. I use L&T for P2 and for the footage from my Canon DSLR, and FCP assigns it the name of the folder that I offloaded the SD card onto. Which is why I give the folders unique names...tape names.
Maybe FCP won't recompress properly as you aren't using an editing codec to begin with. "I have some h264 .mp4 files that I want to recompress into motion jpeg files for offline editing on my Macbook Pro." H.264 isn't designed for editing, so it might not work right. First convert to ProRes 422, then media manage smaller.

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

Solved!
Go to Solution.

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.

Hello:
This is not an area I have much experience in......I rarely insert DVDs and I have never had a similar problem.
When the DVD is in the drive (and DVD players is open) click on File>get disk info.

Verizon Media Manager won't install - How do I get photos from my phone memory to my PC?

I'm getting frustrated with my new Droid, HTC Incredible. The salesman said I could just plug in the USB and transfer my photos to and from my computer, that the phone would look just like an external hard drive. False...
I plug in the USB and get an option to open the folders or to install drivers. If I chose to open the folders, I see three external drives - one with an autorun.inf file and a few other files. If I click on the other two drives, I get a message telling me to install a disk in the drive.
If I click, "Install Drivers" I am taken to the VerizonWireless website and instructed to install Verizon Media Manager. Okay, so I try to do that, on my Windows 64 bit OS, and get a message that says,
"This Application does not support 64 bit operating systems - operation aborted" (or something like that).
So now what?

Media manager won't recognise media card or contents

I'm getting frustrated here... the Blackberry used with the old Roxio PC software work fine. The laptop has been rebuilt, and the new BB Media manager does not want to recognise the photos I have stored on the Media card. I can upload them individually (there are around 300 of them) to Facebook or similar, I can bluetooth them individually to my Apple. But can not get them off or access them on mass. The Apple PC says "Unable to locate media card". The Windows PC says the media card is encrypted. I want these pics, what am I doing wrong?
I also remember when I had the first BB that I could access all the files as if the BB and media card were HDDs - now, despite loading the USB drivers that will not work.
Can anyone help please - apologies if this is a fixed problem already... I have searched the boards but nothing is coming up that answers the problem.
Thanks
Adam

Media Manager won't manage ringtones

I downloaded and installed 4.3b25. I downloaded a ringtone. I browsed for it and found it on my hard drive. I then did an Edit->Copy. I changed the view to the ringtones and tried to do a Paste. The yellow progress bar got to 50% and then it aborted. Nothing appeared in the ringtone list.
Just for the helluvit, I then did a copy to the ringtones area of the 8830 phone. I got a prompt about modifying the data, I did not and let it transfer the file as is. It transferred and showed up in the phone. I set the ringtone and it tested out fine.
Any idea why I can't get the ringtone in the Media Manager portion of the program?

Media Manager won't detect device!

I have a blackberry 7230, and it is detected fine by the desktop manager but that media manager crap (god I hate Roxio) doesnt detect anything.
I've tried reinstalling, tried installing it before desktop desktop manager, but no luck.
Even tried installing it on a different PC, what could be the problem?

I use Desktop Manager 4.3 with Roxio Manager. It has the lastest version of Roxio Manager in which you can move or copy files from desktop to the exandable memory AND the blackberry internal memory. But you may need to get at least the 4.2 OS for blackberry. I have the Blackberry Curve and I am able to transfer files from desktop to internal memory via Roxio without any problems.
Be very careful though. The Blackberry only has 16 MB of memory, if you load a lot of big files it may corrupt other data on your blackberry and will definitely slow the device down. If I were you, I would upgrade to a blackberry that has expandable memory to avoid this. You can get 16 GB micro SD cards now, there is a HUGE difference between 16 MB and 16 GB!
Roxio Manger provides a warning for transferring large files to Blackberry internal memory and in fact imposes a limit which I believe is 2.83 MB.

Media Manager won't consolidate

Hi
I'm trying to consolidate my projects. I've had success already today, but project number two just won't drop its weight. It's and 8 min timeline with one video layer plus the occassional title on V2 and a modest amount of audio. It's coming in at 23GB. In media manager I ask it to copy the sequence and ditch the rest. I've been careful about which boxes I select, but that target bar won't budge down from 23GB.
There are no nested sequences nor clips from another sequence with that sequence name. All the clips refer to the master clips in the Capture Scratch folder, and I'm asking for those clips to be copied selectively.
Any help appreciated.
best
Aldo

Why didn't I think of that?
Indeed, the manual tells me that clips without timecode cannot be consolidated as they could be easily recaptured, so FCP errs on the side of caution. This is exactly what I have here.
Thank you for your thoughts.

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?

Media Manager won't load

I just got a new curve 8320 and I've installed the Blackberry Desktop Manager v 5.0.1.18
It connects to my BB fine via usb cable but in Add/Remove Applications, it comes up blank with the message "No software is available for your device".
Also, when I try to install the Media Manager, it gets stuck at "downloaded 59.7MB out of (unknown)" and then the loading box just disappears. I've tried just reclicking the Install button and the same things happens.
I've tried to look online for the Media Manager file to download separately but nothing came up.
If someone could help me out that would be great. Thanks so much!

Hi there!
A couple of thoughts...
5.0.1.18 is an older version of DTM -- it is up to 5.0.1.28...I suggest you try the most recent version.
Media Manager -- only use a version of DTM/MM if you absolutely must. MM can be problematic and, if you don't need it, then grab a DTM version without MM.
There is no separate MM to DL -- the DTM package you grab (with or without MM) determines what you will have.
You might want to try these clean re-start instructions:
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.
Good luck and let us know!

My Apple TV 2 won't accept home movies from iTunes

My Apple TV 2 won't accept certain home movies from iTunes but my Apple TV 3rd generation will. Some of my older home movies play on both units. Whats different about my new movies?

Winston,
I've been having connection problems with my ATV2 for quite some time. Internet connections are fine, regardless of whether wired or via Ethernet, but it simply won't connect to my iTunes library (spinning wheel for ever). What "irks" me here is your comment below:
I'm a little concerned by the Apple TV not being seen in iTunes when you try to restore by micro USB, this is pretty much a last resort repair.
Is the ATV2 supposed to show up in iTunes and if so, how/where? It sure doesn't show up in my iTunes! I seem to be able to connect, as when I try to close iTunes after one of my many attempts to stream a movie I close iTunes it complaines that there's one or more ATVs connected.
@Peter: please do respond here as to whether a replacement ATV2 has solved your problems ... don't really want to shell out more money for it, but if it solves the problems...

Media Manager won't install

I have an 8220. I am trying to manage the pictures on my device. Apparently I did not install Media Manager when I first installed the desktop software as it is grayed out. I tried to "modify" my installation but it looks as though it is already installed.
I am afraid to completely uninstall for fear of losing something like installed games.
What am I missing?

So when you went to Modify the installation, was the Media Manager set to "Run all from my computer"? Was the version of the Desktop Manager you downloaded one that came with the Media Manager?
Does the 8220 have a trackball in the middle of it? If so then you do not need to use the Media Manager to transfer files to/from the BlackBerry. Check out this KB article that explains about Mass Storage Mode. This is how I transfer files to/from my device.

Roxio Media Manager won't open, taking too long to open

My forum title says it all.
I installed Desktop Manager 4.6 and when I clicked 'Start' to Media Manager, the little oranger thing for Roxio popped up and I waited maybe a good hour waiting for it too open but it didn't. So, I left the computer on all night, (8 hours) and it still didn't open media manager.
Any suggestions?

my suggestion is to stay away from the Media Manager.

Media Manager won't work.

So, I bought my Blackberry Curve 8500 today and I started downloading the Desktop Manager, everything worked perfectly. But since I didn't want the Media Manager installed together with the rest in the beginning, the program told me I could still install it (Media Synch was already installed). I clicked Install, waited for it to finish and restarted my computer. (I didn't disconnect my phone while I was doing this)
I opened Desktop Manager again and clicked at the Launch button to run the Media Manager, but I keeps saying this:
"Runtime Error!
Program: C:\Program Files\Roxio\Media Manager 9\MediaManager9.exe
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an anusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information."
When I click OK this appears next:
"Runtime Error!
R6023
- pure virtual call"
I would really appriciate it if anyone could help, thank you.

HI - I have the exact same problem as this post. Yes- i've uninstalled and reinstalled the desktop manager software- I plug in my BB tour 9630 and I get would you like MSP- I click yes and get nothing in the managerManger. No options. If I click NO the only thing I can do is back updata- No media downloads.
It was working fine until last Sunda and I've changed nothing on my laptop. The USG port works perfect and the cable is new.
