Movie album art

I'm new to this putting movies on iTunes and after backing up 15 movies with HandBrake I noticed a few of them will not accept album art.
Splat-I, "The "ARTWORK" tab in dim
Anyone have ay reason why?

i doesn't look like anyone has an idea about this
I have a theory tho: I have 3 machines. Powerbook, Mini 1 and Mini 2. Mini 1 is unable to "move" files to any connected drives. probably because it's unable to read how much space is available.
*the "xx.xx GB available" appearing at the bottom of every finder window is missing and only "xx items" remains*
anyway this other discs backed up on the two other machine are fine. Seems like I may nee to reload the OS?

  • Movie "Album Art" showing in iTunes but on on Apple TV

    I'm backing up my collection of DVDs onto my computer's hard drive so that I can have the library at the click of my Apple TV. The Apple TV is the brand new version. I added a bunch of movie covers via the Get Info > Artwork option and they are all showing up properly in iTunes.
    However, when I power up my Apple TV, its not showing up. Its showing like the first frame of the movie instead. Any idea how to remedy this? I rebooted both my computer and the AppleTV, left them off overnight, etc. Nothing seems to work.

    I gave that a shot but it didnt seem to do anything. Funny thing is I added a movie tonight along w/ the album art, etc. Same process I did as the others. The one I added tonight works fine but the ones from a few days ago dont.
    Not the end of the world, but I guess I like things to work and be uniform. If anyone else has encountered this let me know.

  • Movie album art - iTunes 11.0.5 (5)

    I just updated iTunes to 11.0.5(5) now when i try to add album art to my movies iTunes crashes. Anyone experiencing this problem or have any suggestions on a fix? Before I updated I have added album art dozens of times with no issue using same process.
    Thanks!

    Following a posting from nyboy_x5 to a different problem, I opened my Norton Internet Security.
    I went to Settings > Network> Smart Firewall > Program Rules: Configure > and then Scrolled to iTunes
    and found the setting as "Auto". 
    I changed the setting to "Allow", then clicked "Apply" and now it works!

  • Problems displaying SOME album art for Home Movies in iTunes 11.1.4

    I have a number of home videos in my iTunes 11.1.4 library on my Mac.  I have manually added album art to each video, but only about half the movies actually show the album art when viewing the movies from the Home Videos tab in iTunes.  The other half of the movies just show a frame of the movie.  I double checked Get Info for the movies that aren't displayed the album art and confirmed that the album art is listed.  All the album art I uploaded is of the same size and file type.  Not sure why half the art displays and half doesn't.  Anyone else see this before?  I'm puzzled.
    Thanks

    I don't know if you got your answer this this post is from about 3 months ago. I've also been having the same issue.
    On my end, I've been keeping all of my movie files on an external drive and just as your situation, only some of them appear and some of them are missing. I don't know if it's as a result of having them on an external drive and anytime I launch iTunes, it's not always plugged in. I'd have to do a bit more testing on that.
    I did notice that as soon as I select the "Get Info" on a movie file with missing artwork and confirm that it's there in the metadata by just clicking "ok", it appears automatically in the iTunes window. Seems like a quick and easy solution for now, but not so if you have 300+ movies and you have to do the step for every other one.
    If you figured out a solution for this or what worked for you, I'd be glad to hear it.

  • Music album art and movie chapter shot mixed up

    Hi I am new here.
    I just noticed that the album art for my music and the shots in the movie chapter got mixed up. more details:
    1) for the music, the album art are correct in the album view of iPod, and the blown up image when the music is playing. However, when I clicked the back arrow to get back to the main iPod screen, the album art in the lower left hand corner under "Now Playing" is messed up. it could be a) cover from another album 2) a question mark 3) a random shot in one of my movies (Monster Inc. if this is helpful...)
    2) in movies, when i click on chapters, the chapter image for some movies which I bought from itunes are messed up. they could be some random shots from other videos (not movies) that i transfered myself. However, some movies (e.g. Monster Inc.) do not have this problem.
    I didn't pay attention when this started to happen, but i am pretty sure at one point everything is alright... so... is there are way to fix this besides trying to delete everything and add again (I do not sync my library for music and movies, only pictures...)
    any advise would be much appreciated... and oh... i have the most updated version of the firmware...
    thanks much in advance

    I have the exact same issue, with videos that i own the electrionic version, including home videos.

  • Recovering album art for movies

    I am having problems with the album art on itunes. The album art for my songs, tv shows, and movies, I can seem them in itunes. but when I load the files onto my ipod touch the album art gets screwed up. It takes frames from movies and substitutes them for album art for a song. anyway so I went to the apple store, and they told me to delete the album art and have itunes redownload it using the get album art thing in itunes. I went into the movie files and deleted the album art. and when I told itunes to get new album art, it did not fix the problem. now I can't see the album art in itunes anymore. I know it's not a big deal... but I really would like to fix it. any help would be appreciated.

  • Any way to update album art for lots of Movies automatically?

    I have several hundred movies in mp4 format that have album art with the exact same filename except ends in .jpg instead of .mp4. I'd like to update the album art in these movies and figured out how to do it manually via iTunes. However, I'm looking for any way to do this easier than manually doing it one by one. Any good scripts or programs out there that can read a directory and insert the album art into the mp4 file?
    Thanks,
    Kevin

    Had this problem and think I have solved a work round although simple copy and paste we used to have would be so much better to have back - APPLE PLEASE NOTE! - sorry I think that deserves a shout.
    I regularly add cd's to my library which don't have artwork on itunes so I search and used to be able to copy the image and paste straight into itunes but not with itunes 11.
    Work around I have found is as follows.
    Locate Artwork, right click and "Add image to iPhoto library"
    Locate album in itunes.  Right click and "Get Info".
    Double click on the artwork frame and will open window showing your files. 
    Open photos and locate your saved artwork photo.
    Select and click open.
    Click OK on the Multiple Item information window and itunes will update the tracks on the album with the artwork.
    It worked for me so hope it does for you.

  • "Album art" of Movies in iTunes library

    I would like to make use of the iTunes movie library to catalogue all my DVD's. So far I have made QT movies of the trailers/intros and then added them to the library. So that each movie icon will show the "Album art" I have added this to the beginning of each QT movie as a 5 second clip and assigned the poster frame at the beginning of this.
    When I add these movies to my library the icon that is displayed shows a frame in the movie some way past the poster frame and generally in the actual trailer rather than the bit I created.
    Any help understanding this and solving it would be appreciated.

    iTunes will normally set the Poster frame at 10 seconds in... I don't know why it doesn't seem to use the Poster frame set in QT, but you have a choice of leaving the poster/album art up for more than 10s when you do the file in QT, or you can set the Poster frame in iTunes (while the movie is playing, Ctrl-click it)

  • Few problems/questions! (cover flow, album art...etc)

    Ok I finally added my songs to my new IPOD (replaced my old one) and this is my first Ipod with video, color...etc. Its the IPOD Classic 80 GIG.
    Well I am having a few problems/questions:
    ---Why when I hit "Get album art" does it ONLY get art for my videos? It doesn't get any for all 1,500+ songs! Is it because they aren't downloaded from Itunes? If so then why does it do it for the movies then? They aren't from ITunes either!
    ---With Cover Flow I updated the Album Art myself and have about 700 songs with art now. But I have two problems.
    1. It won't display all 700 songs under Cover Flow!
    2. It won't show them in order by song name! Can I change that?!? If not then how is it showing them by? What do I need to change?
    ---Are there any other video types supported besides that on Mpeg4 and that other weird type? If not why not? Its a pain to have to convert everything. Its almost not worth having this video IPOD if you have to go through sop much effort just to watch 1 stupid video. I mean I spent more money on extra programs now for music and videos then I did on the IPOD almost.
    ---Is there any way to transfer your music from one IPOD to another? I know some people say you can't but why? What about people like me who have music ripped from our own cds and NOTHING from ITunes? Its a REAL pain having to rerip all the cds, put them back on, rename all the songs, fix all the info...etc. Its taken me 4 days now. Apple needs to think about a "IPOD TO IPOD" music transfer kinda program.
    ---How do you get pics on the IPOD without having to keep them on your PC? I notice it has to SYNC them every time I have it plugged into the PC! But if I tell it NOT to sync pics anymore then they won't stay on the IPOD if turn that option off and unplug the IPOD. Theres got to be another way to add them.

    Cover flow on the ipod can only be done (as far as I know) on Album by Artist Name. On iTunes you can change it around

  • How to properly embed album art work into TV/Films itunes: home sharing lag

    My setup is a simple apple home sharing network.
    I have a mac mini running OS X 10.6.8 and itunes 11.0.4(4) it hosts a lot of music, DVD's that have been re-encoded and paid for content from itunes.
    The mac mini is conntected to the network over a very good gigbit lan and has 4 apple TV3 (latest gen) hanging off the network, and multiple PC/Mac/ipod/ipad devices hanging off the network.
    I connect to the itunes home sharing service with the apple TV service using the "remote" application on the ipad.
    When I select Music/Albums TV Shows or Films from the menu of the itunes library the album art work loads (quickly) over the grey boxes as I scroll down. However this takes a few seconds for each "scroll" I do on the ipad (it has thousands of items in there).
    The exception to the rule is any paid content, when I open Music/TV/Films menu on the ipad the paid content (especially for TV and Films) the artwork is already there, and doesn't have to load it.
    How is the artwork for paid content contained differently than the artwork for content I've manually put into the itunes library.
    If I look at the itunes library locally on the machine hosting the itunes data, the artwork is there straightaway, no loading, pull up the items info with "get info" and click on art work, the artwork is there, and I can see no different in the art work settings for paid content or for content I've manually updated/loaded an image for.
    So why/how does the paid for content have artwork on the ipad the exact second I open it over the network, yet the non-paid for content take a few seconds per screen to load it.
    Is there something different in how the art work is embeeded, or is it a caching setting ? whats the difference.

    Dang You Autocorrect.
    You don't saw what size and resolution the embedded artwork is. This could be part of the issue. Artwork on movies you purchase from the iTunes Store is 667x1000 at 72 DPI so if yours is larger than this is could be causing the delay.

  • My Album Art on my iPod is so messed up!

    Please Help! On my library on my computer, my album art pictures are on the right songs, but on my iPod, different pictures show up for different songs. Let's saw for Mika there might be a picture of Fall Out Boy or even a movie still! I'm not sure how to fix this, so please help! I've tried unplugging and plugging my iPod back in, but nothing seems to work!

    Try unchecking "display album artwork" in the music preferences section when your iPod is connected and click "apply". Then sync your iPod.
    Then check "display album artwork" in the music preferences section when youd iPod is connected and click "apply". Then sync your iPod again.
    This should resync the album artwork to the iPod.
    If this does not work, you might need to restore the iPod and reload the songs in order to correct this error.

  • Album Art on iPod touch gone

    On my W7 PC I moved my Music foder to a different drive. From C to D using a W7 tool to do the move. Everything is perfect in my iTunes, the music plays and all the info and Album Art covers are OK.
    However, on my iPod touch, although the music is all there and plays correctly, the Cover Flow just shows the Note icon. No album art. I tried all kinds of syncing but it does not show up.
    Please help.
    Thanks

    No, the backup should only cover stuff like the data & settings related to your apps. The apps themselves and any media remain in the iTunes library. After restoring the iPod it should be possible to restore the device from the backup and have all the settings and data come back. I've done a full restore once on my iPhone and that went OK but there's always a risk that you'll have to go back to an "as new" setup. Once the device is restored the media library will be rebuilt from scratch which should repair any issues you currently have with the artwork cache.

  • Can't see album art in Songs view in iTunes 11, column browser issues

    The column browser is still the most effective way for me to navigate my music, but in iTunes 11 it's only available in Songs view. This kinda makes sense, the column browser would be somewhat redundant in the other views, but Songs view is now missing the album art on the left side, which makes it a lot harder to view my music. This is what it looked like in iTunes 10:
    In iTunes 11 it looks like this:
    The album art was't just pretty, it had a great function of visually separating each of my albums in the list view. Now they all mush together. Sure, I can see the art now in the Artists or Genre view, but not with the column browser. I want to be able to sort by Genre, Artist and Albums - all three. Not one or the other. The column browser is the only way to do this and it just got uglier.
    On top of all this, now if I navigate to a certain place in the column browser and then click on anything else in iTunes, like the Artists view, Movies, Podcasts, etc and then jump back to the column browser, the whole column browser is reset and I've lost my place. This never used to happen in iTunes 10.
    It's like Apple is trying to marginalize the column browser till no-one wants to use it anymore.

    I found this in another discussion about iTunes 11:
    "To view in list/song view with art work on the side
    Go to prefernces >general and uncheck use large text. Go to Artist view > view > options > check group compulations.  then clik on all artists and all you music will appear in list view  with the art work on the left This is great for me as I recognize my music by art work not title, artist, ect..  Wish I could do additional sorts/see info in this view such as date added, BPM, last played ect."
    can you try it and post a screen shot?

  • Syncing Issues: album art, cut-off songs

    I have a 16GB iPod Touch that I've been syncing with my Windows Vista PC, seemingly without complications. It has only recently come to my attention that somewhere between my computer's library and my library on my iPod, something is messing up at random times. Full songs will become half-songs, 30-second songs, on the iPod. They are not damaged on my PC, but when they get uploaded to the iPod, they get messed up. If I re-upload them, sometimes the problem goes away, sometimes it cuts in a different spot. This is immensely frustrating, as I do not know how to fix it or what is causing it to begin with.
    More recently I have discovered that all the work I have done organizing my library and getting everything to have album covers is wasted when I try to put these albums on my Touch. The album covers entirely disappear, and I have to copy and paste them in, which takes about five minutes per album (slow write speed?). Seems pretty lame to have a product focused on the ability to flip through albums visually, and then have the album art not automatically download with my music.
    Any help?

    I finally have the fix for this issue after a month of extensive debugging, experimentation, etc. on Windows Vista. I've reinstalled my whole **** computer twice, and Apple's phone support is a (bad) joke. They should just send me the script they use so I can read it myself.
    First off, let's establish the symptoms of this problem:
    * Data sync'ed to my iPod Touch would corrupt at random points. Sometimes songs would go through intact. Other times they would "glitch" partway through and the device would advance to the next song. Video files of a sufficient size -- like movies and T.V. episodes -- ALWAYS glitch at some point, which crashes the video playback and brings the device back to the video menu.
    * Periodically, the iPod Touch would corrupt completely, which required a total firmware restoration. Rarely, these firmware restorations would also fail.
    Now for the solution. It's a two-part deal:
    1) Stop "Windows Search." It's not the major cause of sync problems, but it is a contributor, which is unsurprising given the amount of resources it hogs. Open the "Services" control panel item (Control Panel->System and Maintenance->Administrative Tools->Services, or just type "services.msc" into the "search" box on the Start Menu) and double-click "Windows Search." Click "stop" and set the startup type to "disabled," then click "OK."
    2) This next part is going to be a bitter pill to swallow. When Microsoft launched Vista, it created a new "security feature" called PatchGuard which disallows direct kernel access to third-party applications. Antivirus vendors like McAfee, Symantec, Avast, etc. all have to use a kernel API rather than direct kernel access. However, Microsoft's own antivirus product -- Windows Live OneCare -- has complete access to the kernel without an API.
    This appears to have created a weird situation with iTunes. I have reinstalled my system twice, both with 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Vista, and it seems that merely having a third-party antivirus product installed is sufficient to cause this problem. I've tried Avast, McAfee, Symantec and TrendMicro's products. The problem will not go away even if you turn off scanning, put in exceptions, etc. With Avast, I even terminated all of its processes and stopped its services. No dice. Just having a third-party antivirus product installed -- EVEN IF IT IS NOT RUNNING -- will cause this issue.
    However, the second you UNINSTALL your third-party antivirus software, the problem goes away -- every time. I've sync'ed movies over and over again to test this, and it's definitely the primary source of the problem.
    Obviously, running without antivirus software in this day and age is unacceptable, but there is one product that's free from this problem; in fact, it's the only product that still has direct kernel access. I'm running Windows Live OneCare on a 90-day trial right now, and after running more tests, I've confirmed my hypothesis. Any antivirus product with direct kernel access is fine. The problem is that Windows Live OneCare is the ONLY antivirus product right now with direct kernel access.
    If you're running Windows Vista 32-bit, there may possibly be a second antivirus option. My Windows Vista-based gaming laptop uses Computer Associates' AV product, and it's never had a problem syncing with my iPod. I haven't really tested other products on it, though, so your mileage may vary. I can't say for certain that it's a safe bet.
    So there you have it: one month of my nights and weekends down the toilet to fix an issue Apple and Microsoft should be handling. I feel like I've paid $500 for the privilege of being an unpaid Apple Q.A. tester. At this point, they should pay ME for the time I've wasted on this issue.
