Metadata, Keywords, Ratings, In/Out Markers for MOVs do not Travel Outside of LR4

Consistency in the handling and displaying of metadata (along with severe slowness issues) for video files across the CS line needs to be addressed. I just completed an intense seesion of keywording, metadata entry, and cataloging of MOV files in LR4. I was expecting the work to translate to all products in the CS line. To my chagrin, none of the cataloging work transfers into Bridge, OnLocation, or Premiere, we just expected that keywording and metadata entry would be consistent throughout the line.
Back to square one on this task.... On the plus side, at least we caught this pitfall in the first week rather than at the end of a cataloging marathon. I dislike complaining...however, you should know that trusting Adobe and LR4 just cost me four days of my time/labor and several hundred dollars in (wo)man hours. Test the metadata fields (between software you intend to use for handling your files) early in the game; This is the unfortunate lesson of the day.

Please add your opinion and vote about LR's handling of video metadata to this feedback topic:

  • THE VOLUME FOR "MOVIES" CAN NOT BE FOUND

    Not sure if I posted this in the right place. I would appreciate anyone that can help.
    I installed iLife 08 yesterday and everything seemed to go fine.
    When I go to open my MOVIES folder I keep getting a : "THE VOLUME FOR "MOVIES" CAN NOT BE FOUND" message?
    What happened??
    More importantly....
    On the left hand of my Finder window where it lists DEVICES, PLACES, and SEARCH FOR.... if I click on SEARCH FOR and go to ALL MOVIES....
    I was relieved to find all of my movie files still in there.
    BUT HERE'S THE PROBLEM:
    I was watching some of the movies... and I noticed as soon as I clicked off and started viewing a new movie... the previous movie would disappear from the ALL MOVIES FOLDER... and the number tally would decrease.
    I finally realized after 10 movies that files were disappearing... or perhaps being deleted.
    I used FIND to try to locate the lost files but no such luck. I can't find them anywhere.
    It also appears to be only my WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER FILES that are disappearing.
    What happened to my MOVIES folder? and where are these lost files going? Are they being deleted? UGH UGH UGH!
    If anyone can help I'd greatly appreciate. I'm very frazzled.

  • Setting Build-In/Out markers for multiple animated tracks

    I have built a title that has the the Build-Optional markers so that the user can trim the title without altering the animation timing. However, the title has an additional animation running through the sequence. This means that the Build-In and Out affect correctly the in and out animation (a slide in and out) but they dont stop the retiming of the animation that is running throughout the entire sequence!!! Is there a another method? It doesnt look like you can apply Build-In/Out markers to individual tracks?!

    sounds like you are very efficient in your work.
    You have to be if you want to get anything done in a timely manner, and if you want to be able to find footage quickly.
    I thought that i should do that after the fact, but then i thought that in cases of collecting a lot of rough footage that there may be a several areas of footage you dont want to use that you are asking the camera to play when it doesnt need to.
    Exactly why logging your footage is so important. Not only do you see what you have, but you can make sure you don't capture stuff you don't want or don't need, and that saves tons of space. Plus the mere fact you are logging, capturing and organizing your footage means that you are getting more familiar with what you have. This is of MAJOR importance to an editor.

  • Wait for move complete not waiting for timeout

    Hi,
    I am running a small rotary stage with a 7358 motion controller. Occasionally when I command a new position, the "wait for move complete" seems to get triggered almost immediately even though the move is not complete. Since I have put in a "halt" downstream of this to cover the case where the move times out, the move stops immediately. The problems seems interrmittent but I haven't discovered a pattern yet except that is happens for more often when making a reverse move, i.e. I go to 1000 counts as a forward move and then back to 800 as a reverse.
    Has anyone seen something similar?
    Thanks,
    Dave

    oops syntax error! I put waitComplete, but it's supposed to be moveComplete as the last argument for flex_wait_for_move_complete. Just want to let you guys know that. Thanks!

  • Setting in and out markers for capturing.

    i am learning final cut pro, and have also purchased a new camera. I was under the impression that a tape based camera goes through wear on the heads the more you use it... having said that i just finished chapter eight of capturing video in final cut pro, and am under the impression that i have to watch the video, set my in and out point/ set markers to select the footage to be used, and then it has to play the footage again to capture it?..... so your camera is always going to have to go through the wear of recording original footage,rewind footage...play footage to mark in and out points, and the a third time to capture is this correct? also are a lot of people using these expensive formatting devices that you plug into your camera so when you record your original footage it records on the tape and on this device so you can access the device and not put so much wear on the camcorders tape heads?

  • Chapter markers for movies on ipod

    i use handbreak to rip down dvds onto my ipod. is there a way to do chaptermarkers or a faster way to fastforward?
    thanks for anything
    =David=

    i use handbreak to rip down dvds onto my ipod. is there a way to do chaptermarkers or a faster way to fastforward?
    The iPod player currently ignores video chapter markers. As to a faster way to fastforward, how are you doing it now? I can fastworward through the entire Star Wars III movie in 5-6 seconds (depending on the amount of drag caused by the silicone case). This is faster than I can repeatedly click all of the chapter markers on my old DVD player and wait for it to catch up.

  • Folders and Chapter Markers for Movies Transferred to iToons

    I would like to transfer my movies to iToons so I can stream them to my Apple TV to show them on my HD TV and have two questions.
    1. Can I create a folder to hold movies of a similar type?
    2. Several of my movies are composed of episodes and when I transferred them to a DVD I had chapter markers which made it convenient to locate a particular episode. I note that the commercial movies I stream to my TV allow you to move to a particular scene or chapter.  Is there a way to provide chapter markers when I share a movie I made to iToons?  All my movies are in a QT format as well as in a disk image of the DVD.

  • Home sharing works for movies but not music?

    I have Home Sharing turned on my imac.  It works fine streaming movies and tv shows to my Apple TV, Mac Mini and ipads.  The media is stored on a NAS.
    My problem is with music.  When on the ipad, I open the Home Sharing folder. Only half a dozen albums show up.  The artwork is all mixed up.  On Songs, there are several hundred, but they are not properly listed (eg a hundred or so under "A", but they do not begin with the letter "A".
    I've tried retarting everything.
    I've tried deleting the library and rebuilding.
    I've tried creating a new library on imac.
    I've tried creating a new library on NAS.
    Nothing seems to work.
    Any ideas anyone?
    thanks

    After digging and reading since I posted this question, I finally found the issue. My Cisco VPN client was set to stateful firewall (always on). When I turned off this setting, all machines worked for iTunes sharing. The Vista box was coincidentally working because the Cisco VPN client 4.6 didn't work on Vista.

  • 'poster frame' for movies is not saved

    Hi iTunes people,
    Note - this all used to work in Leopard - this feature has become non-functional since the arrival of Snow Leopard.
    When I set the POSTER FRAME, via the contextual menu that appears for an entry in the movies section of iTunes, it is not saved.
    Although the 'artwork' image in the lower left of the itunes window temporarily shows the frame I selected, if I go away from that item or perform the same action on another movie, the poster frame that had been selected is gone and is replaced with whatever was there from before. 
    The only way it appears that one can save a poster frame is to physically drag-n-drop an image into the ARTWORK tab of the 'Get Info dialog for that item.
    Does anyone have any other suggestions about how to make this feature work - without having to create and deposit artowrk into the GetInfo dialog?  I lost 1900+ poster frames I had created for various movies and clips because of this problem.  I really am not looking forward to again having to do all that work.
    Thanks!

  • The sign out button for iCloud is not clickable

    I am trying to change the iCloud phone used for my girlfriend iPhone 5.
    I created a new Apple ID for her phone, logged out of all possible places where the old one can be logged,
    but when going on settings>>iCloud the sign out option is gray and can not be clicked.
    I tried everything written in the forums, but still no success.
    Can someone actually help me here, there is not Find my iPhone installed on the phone.
    I updated today to the newest version.
    Best regards,

    So the idea is to back it up on my PC. Then delete everything, then if I restore it won't the iCloud be the same?
    And can I ask you why does this have to be so hard to do? I have a new apple id, I have iCloud created for it, but can't use it on the phone.
    I understand theft is a thing, but basically this phone has be used with just one number and it is the one my gf owns and pays each month.
    I have bought every iPhone since 3gs, I even bought my mother one, I have two iPads, I have apple TV and I still can not understand why iTunes and this whole apple id iCloud thing can be such a mess.
    Regards

  • On my ATV home screen the menu tabs for Movies does not show nor does Netflix under the Internet tab, I have tried reset etc but nothing works

    I think I have a 1st gen ATV.  The other evening I got the ubiquitous "Error-HDCP content etc, try again" message.  When I logged back in later, the Movies tab was gone from the menu screen as was Netflix under the Internet tab.  I have tried reset, restore, unplugging etc and nothing works, any thoughts?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If you had/have Netflix, you have the Apple TV 2.
    Check your iTunes Store location is set to the correct location.

  • In and out markers missing in QT Pro?

    I've just bought QT Pro 7 and want to edit a movie into separate clips. I can see a timeline indicator but no in and out markers for selecting certain sections of the movie. Can anyone help?
    Thanks
    Carol

    Quicktime Pro can't edit MPEG-1 or 2 videos. You need something like MPEG-Streamclip a free program to be able to edit these type of videos.
