N97 and Home Media
Anyone found where Home Media is in the N97 ? I'm need it to browse and access PC based media the way I did with my N95. Thanks

Hi, unfortunately I don't believe it's possible, I am a current N97 and ex (and current) N95 8gig user. However, if you want a very useable compromise start a free Ovi Files account. I have one and can access up to 10 gig of files from my pc from anywhere any time on phone even when computer switched off. If I wnted to leave computer connected to web when I'm out I could access the lot !! It's worth a go, don't use it a lot , but if I occasionally need a photo or tune from my 'Anytime ' files it's handy to just download to my phone.
Good Luck
If I have helped at all, a click on the White Star is always appreciated :

"Media Sync" and "Home Media" on the Nseries - how...
I've set up Home Media on the N79, and right now, if I try to browse to it from Windows, I get nothing. As far as Windows is concerned, there's no files being shared from it, I guess. It just loads up WMP and shows me my local library.
Now, there's also Media Sync. I've got that set up to manually sync my Captured Photos and Captured Videos to my home network, and it'll happily scan what files are available, but then when I get it to Sync, it does nothing. If I get it to show me what files are synced to the network, there's obviously nothing there, because it's not syncing anything. It thinks that syncing is disabled for all available sync-to-network file types, regardless of my settings.
So my question is, has anyone got playing to/from devices over the network with Home Media to work, or Media Sync to the network to work? Ever? I can't find any examples online of somebody who's actually used either of these features successfully. How did you do it?
Help I'm trapped in a sig factory.Hi,
Sorry for the late reply, but I've got it all configured right, it just doesn't do anything on "Sync To". After running the wizard, my N79's still sent to "synching off" for all items in the "to home" section, and the only options outside of the wizard are:
Target devices: This just shows a box marked "synchronisation off" with a check-box which can't be cleared
Keep on phone: This just sets file size for after syncing.
"Sync From" works fine but being able to automatically back up my pics over the WLAN is more useful to me than being able to grab music automatically over the same.
Help I'm trapped in a sig factory. -
4 questions about the the top boxes - SD box and Home media DVR
Hello. I am going to be getting Fios soon and I have some questions about the boxes. I will be getting the Home Media DVR and 4 SD boxes.
1) Do these boxes have timers on them to set so the box can turn off at a certain time?
2) Do these boxes have parental control and if so is it good enough to block things that I do not want my child to see?
3) How many people can access the home media dvr at the same time to watch already recorded programs
4) If the Home Media DVR is in the family room can a record be started from the bedroom over the SD set top box (even an hd show)?
Thanks for any help.I have been using two Standard Set Top Boxes for about a year. I have Parental Controls on and all channels locked. When I want to watch a channel, I tune to that channel, note the LOCKED message, which tells me to press the OK button to enter ther Parental Controls PIN and unlock the channel for viewing.
This has worked flawlessliy for the last year -- ON THE Standard STB's.
I just ordered the Home Media DVR STB to replace one of my Standardt STB..
On the Home Media DVR:
I can set the Parentals Control PIN and lock the channels, in the exact same way I did o nthe Standard STB's. However, when tuen to ANY channel, I still ge the LOCKED message and instructions to press OK to unlock the channel -- BUT no matter how I press the OK button, the Enter your Parental Conlrols PIN dialog box willl NOT open. Nothing happens -- you CAN NOT view any channel.
Again, it is the EXACT setup as for the Standard STB, but the OK button will NOT unlock any of the channels.
If you unlock all channels and LOCK the Ratings, the same problem recurs: OK buitton will never open the "enter your PIN" dialog box.
I have received two replacement boxes and have spent hours on the phone with some very capable and helpful Techs -- no luck.
Has anyone else had the same problem? Here's how to test your Home Media DVR:
1. Menu-Settings-Parental Controls.
2. You will be prompted to CREATE youre Parental Controls PIN
3. Enter you PIN twice.
4. Use the > button to scroll to Enable On/Off and set it on.
5. scroll down to Control Channels
6. Press > button to See Locked Channels
7. Scroll down to Add/Remove Channels
8. Scroll right to choose LOCK ALL
9. Press OK and then scroll to YES to lock all channels
10. Press EXIT to get out of settings.
11. All channels are now locked.
12. Go to any channel
13. A black screen will appear with a lock silhouette with the word LOCKED below, followed by instructions to Press OK to enter PIN and unlock this channel. (plus how to change locks...).
14.Press the OK button and, if it is working, you will see a dialog box at the bottom of the screen that is titled: UNLOCK, with the channel listed and the instructions to "Enter your PIN using your numeric pad on remote to naje this channel availabe for all users." THere's a PIN box, which shows asterisks for each number entered, with "Press Exit to Cancel" below.
15. On the Standard STB, it works exactly as described in steps 1 thru 14. On the Media Center DVR, it works up to step `13, but in 14, no matter how you press the OK button, the UNLOCK dialog box never pops us. The Remote STB light flashes on the remove and the REMOTE yellow light flashes on the DVR, but nothng happens.
If you have a Home Media DVR, can you please try this and see if it works?
Thanks,

Hi,
I have been using my macbook pro as a home media server, hosting most content on the macbook with ipod touch, ipads, and appletv streaming/sharing content. I have run out of space on both the macbook pro and the apple tv and am looking to moving the content to a home media server. Any thoughts/suggestions? I'd like something that I can access remotely too. I have an old slingbox and also have a static IP address.
Any thoughts/suggestions would be most welcome!Don't worry I've sorted it! I just had to turn off Reminders as well in iCloud. Calendar then worked fine, even when I turned Calendar and Reminders back on.

Can I connect 2 sony bravia's, a sony home theatre, 2 macbooks, 2 ipads, 3 iphones and a dell laptop and stream media from my apple devices to my tv? I have a sony bravia 600 series and 700 series and a home theatre( sony 7100 series)
The only way to stream directly to your TV would be if it is an AirPlay-enabled device.
There are many AirPlay-enabled devices but I am not familiar with Sony's products. If yours do not specifically indicate AirPlay capability, then you need an AirPlay-enabled device such as an AppleTV connected to your Sony TV or Sony AVR. -
WRT54G2 and Iomega Home Media Network HDD
So I am on my second HDD with Iomega. I am thinking now that this is a router problem rather than a HDD problem. I have a 1TB Iomega home media network drive, eversince I bought my router and began using it I have been unable to use my HDD. It is hard wired to the router via RJ-45 cable and both units have been reset and powered up in about every order you can imagine. I have reset factory defaults on the router and made security changes to ensure there was nothing blocking that port. I am at wits end. I cannot connect to the HDD and the drive flashes yellow and blue indicating it cannot estabilsh or receive an IP address from the router. Can anone help me with this. The drive has already been replaced once after the same symptoms occurred previously. Any help is appreciated.
Per the Iomega support site:
How do I find the Home Media Network Hard Drive on my network?
Install the Iomega Home Storage Manager software. Once the installation completes, the Iomega Home Storage Manager icon will appear in the system tray (Windows) or Menu Bar (Mac) and your computer will automatically be connected to the Home Media drive's shared folders.
NOTE: If no DHCP server is found on your network the Home Media Drive will get the self-assigned IP address 169.254.55.82.
NOTE: The Iomega Home Storage Manager will automatically scan your network and connect to available shared folders. If you receive a message from your operating system's firewall alerting you of network activity, click the unblock button.
Mac Users: The Iomega Home Media drive's shared folders should mount and appear on the Mac Desktop.
PC Users: The Iomega Home Media drive's shared folders will automatically be assigned a drive letter and will be available in the Network Drives section under My Computer.
Also see the User Manual for the drive or the Iomega online support site.
The network drive has a menu system to allow the user to configure the network settings for the drive. Log into the drive per the User Manual directions and check the Network settings to ensure the Automatic (DHCP) is enabled. When this option is enabled it should pull an IP address from the router.
One other option is to configure the IP setting to Manual in the Network page on the network drive and input an IP address (Static IP Address) outside of the IP addresses the router will hand out via its DHCP server. You would also have to fill out any additional settings for the Manual option. So for example if the router is configured for IP address of 192,16.1.1, and a starting DHCP IP address of xxx.xxx.xxx.100 and a Maximum Number of DHCP Users of 50 than set the network drive's IP address to 192.168.1.200, or any ending IP number between 151 and 254, or between 2 and 99. That way it won't conflict with the router's DHCP address assignments and it will always have the same IP address. -
Just bought and connected iomega home media network hard drive but can't see it on network - HELP!
so per the information from my other thread i bought an iomega home media network hard drive. i've attached it to the westell ultraline series 3 9100em wireless router i got when i signed up for fios. i installed the software that came with the hard drive but it's not showing up on the network. when i log in to the router management console it shows up as the first device under "network stats". what am i missing that's not letting the drive get recognized on my network? as always thanks in advance for any replies.
Hello jarmin2411
A factory reset from the web interface would correct this sort of issue. However I suspect that using the pin-hole reset button should also be able to clear the issue as it seems to be a network configuration issue. The network settings may have become corrupt during the update. Using the device reset button

When will there be a MAC version of the Home Media Center????
That's a problem
You can increase the font size on the Desktop, you can increase the dock size, you can increase the font size in browser, but you CAN'T increase the size of the menu bar and menu items.
Can also zoom in (System Preferences -> Universal Access -> Seeing -> Zoom -> On
But that makes a) the display very pixelated and b) you have to scroll around through the content.
Would be nice if Apple would make the GUI of Lion resolution independent scaleable -
"Extra" Internal Hard Drives won't mount - swap, /, and /home work.
Hello All,
*** I'm updating my post finally. Sorry it's so long, I'm not entirely sure what is and isn't relevant.
*** Also I think it's a mix up with RAID causing the issue, as I'll address below, but in case I'm wrong I wanted to include the other information that came to mind before I noticed the RAID issue (because the RAID issue doesn't make a lot of sense to me).
First off, I'm running Arch64 and KDE4 with my system up to date. Also I have Gamin installed and not FAM. I use ReiserFS on all of my partitions and drives.
I have six hard drives in my computer, all of which are SATA drives. One is a WD 150GB Raptor with my swap, /, and /home partitions on it, the other five are for extra storage on what I call my media-server (they mount to /media/media-server/1 ,2 ,and so on). They only have one partition each. Of those five the first (/media/media-server/1) is a WD 1TB drive, the other four are WD 500GB drives of identical model.
All of the Raptor's patitions, swap, /, and /home mount just fine.
On top of that the 1TB drive mounts just fine. But the four 500GB drives will not mount at all. They show up in Dolphin, Disk Utility, KwikDisk, KDiskFree, and Partition Manager. However, their size is not shown and/or marked N/A, except in Partition Manager, where their size is shown. They are not seen by 'df'.
Output from 'df':
df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
udev 10M 308K 9.7M 4% /dev
/dev/sda2 25G 7.7G 17G 32% /
none 4.0G 0 4.0G 0% /dev/shm
/dev/sda3 112G 90G 22G 81% /home
/dev/sdb1 932G 919G 13G 99% /media/media-server/1
*** As for removable media, it's being a bit odd. When I first wrote this post removable media, specifically USB flash drives and SD media cards mounted fine. A while after that they'd show up in Device Notifier, but wouldn't mount. Just a little while ago they wouldn't show up in Device Notifier and wouldn't mount. Now they show up fine and mount fine again. This is possibly unrelated, I'm not sure.
Depending on what method I try to mount my hard drives I either get an 'only root can mount that' error or else a HAL drive busy or already mounted error, followed by a 'drive is not mounted' error when I use umount to double check.
*** Permissions are working better now , Dolphin isn't giving me the 'only root can mount' errors anymore. Still can't mount the drives though.
All of this output is from when the drives are listed in /etc/fstab:
Konsole output:
mount /dev/sdf1
mount: only root can mount /dev/sdf1 on /media/media-server/5
sudo mount /dev/sdf1
mount: /dev/sdf1 already mounted or /media/media-server/5 busy
umount /dev/sdf1
umount: /dev/sdf1 is not mounted (according to mtab)
sudo umount /dev/sdf1
umount: /dev/sdf1: not mounted
Dolphin output:
An error occurred while accessing 'MediaServer5', the system responded: org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume.PermissionDenied: Device /dev/sdf1 is listed in /etc/fstab. Refusing to mount.
Device Notifier output (pops up when I try to mount the drives in Dolphin):
org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume.PermissionDenied: Device /dev/sdf1 is listed in /etc/fstab. Refusing to mount.
Partition Manager:
The file system on partition /dev/sdf1 could not be mounted.

==========================================================================================
mount: /dev/sdf1 already mounted or /media/media-server/5 busy
mount: you didn't specify a filesystem type for /dev/sdf1
I will try type reiserfs
At boot, when the daemons are starting I get:

mount: /dev/sdd1 already mounted or /media/media-server/3 busy
mount: /dev/sde1 already mounted or /media/media-server/4 busy
mount: /dev/sdf1 already mounted or /media/media-server/5 busy
This is from when the drives are not listed in /etc/fstab:
Dolphin output:
An error occurred while accessing 'MediaServer5', the system responded: org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.InterfaceLocked: The enclosing drive for the volume is locked
Device Notifier output (pops up when I try to mount the drives in Dolphin):
An error occurred while accessing 'MediaServer5', the system responded: org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.InterfaceLocked: The enclosing drive for the volume is locked
I have tried listing (with the UUID method and the /dev method) and not listing the drives in /etc/fstab, and I have 'hal' and 'dbus' daemons in /etc/rc.conf (and I've tried using only the hal daemon and not the dbus in /etc/rc.conf). I've also tried not listing 'hal', 'dbus', and 'kdm' and only booting to terminal and then mounting the drives manually, that doesn't work either.
Here is my /etc/fstab (back to using UUID's):

I attempted to add the other drives to /etc/mtab but they get overwritten upon a reboot. I've drived mounting the drives from konsole and dolphin.
All my drives used to work. At one point I had Chakra installed and had this issue after an update, however after thinking about it the problem may have actually started after the power flashed on and off here. I couldn't fix it so I installed Arch64 and KDE4 (the normal KDE from the Arch repos, not KDEMod) thinking maybe it was a Chakra specific issue. That fixed it at the time. It later happened on my Arch install. I reinstalled Arch again and the issue was gone. However the issue is back. Again I think it was after a power outage/flash but it was also after an update that included a kernel update. Best I can remember each time it's happened has been after a kernel update and power flash. So I can't say for sure which is the cause.
Oddly though if I boot from a live disc (in my case a Chakra Live DVD) I can mount and access all of the drives just fine.
Another oddity, is that in 'Disk Utility' (palimpsest) there is a 1.5TB RAID-5 array listed. The only thing I can figure is that that is what is making the individual drives busy.
Here's a screenshot from Disk Utility of the RAID-5 array:
http://theavataroftime.com/sites/defaul … enshot.png
After talking to a friend I remembered that quite a while back (over a year) we had messed around trying to setup a RAID array and dual boot WindowsXP. However, we never could get it working quite right, not even just in Linux without dual booting. I really can't say what all we did/tried, it's been too long. I realize that's not much help but...
Anyway I'm pretty certain I deleted everything RAID related at the time and turned it off. However I must be mistaken or I guess the array wouldn't be showing up.
I apologize, I really know nothing about RAID or RAID controllers. I do have an onboard RAID controller, but it's not a full fledged hardware RAID controller. It's onboard, but doesn't have it's on proccessor like good hardware RAID would. Or that's the way I understand it. Perhaps 'hybrid' is the proper term?
I checked in BIOS and my onboard RAID controller is off.
I take it that my attempts at setting up a RAID array before are still in the MBR (on that note I use GRUB and have never used LILO)? That's the only place I can think of that any leftover RAID configurations wouldn't have been wiped during reinstalling and reformatting the drives and partitions? I've reformatted my drives completely and changed the size of swap, /, and /home on several occasions since then, as well as formatting the media-server drives to ReiserFS (not sure what FS I was using when trying to setup RAID before. Perhaps FAT32 since I was trying to dual boot).
I clicked the stop array button in Disk utility, and then all the options except start array went away. Then I clicked start, and instead of my four media-server drives being listed at the side of Dolphin there was one 1.4TB drive. I rebooted and now it's back to the 4 500GB media-server drives.
I'm worried about losing a bunch of data, so I'm hesitant to start experimenting. How should I go about getting rid of the remnants of the RAID array safely?
Also here's a screenshot of MediaServer5 from Disk Utility. The other 500GB drives have the same info minus the names and labels of course:

*** I had forgotten about dmesg output. It's quite long so instead of copying it, here's a link to it:

Thanks for advice on the matter.

How do i put a iPhoto Library on a Iomega Cloud home media hard drive
how do i put a iPhoto Library on a Iomega Cloud home media hard drive
Is this a local physical hard drive that is connected to your Mac by a wired connection? Is it formatted Mac OS extended (journaled)
If the answer to both questions is yes then
Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive
In looking through their web site I see no indication that it will work with iPhoto and many that imply it will not - I believe that placing your iPhoto library on it will endanger your photos

Best way to organize photos and home video
Looking for the optimum way to organize photos and home videos. Goal is to have all devices have equal access to all the media. Just as important is for this to be as easy as possible to maintain and use.
Have an iMac with iTunes and iPhoto
Have multiple iOS devices with different family members each of whom take photos and videos with their devices
Have multiple Apple TVs
iMac will be the hub with wifi synching
Right now about 30,000 files probably 1000 are videos (and growing)
I don't do any editing of photos or videos
Current set up is through iPhoto. I am importing all images not using the reference option. This worked fine until we started taking more videos which made for a large 200gb iPhoto library which barely loads even with 16gb ram.
I want to use iPhoto not iTunes because I keep everything organized by event, that includes photos and videos. And I don't want 2 separate organizing options to keep track of.
Most of my library is also available outside of iPhoto, I have a back up so I could use the reference feature of iPhoto which would mean a smaller library. However we use photostream on all iOS devices which has the feature that automatically imports into iPhoto. So I don't have to worry about those photos - it's easy. But then i would have some media copied into the library and some referenced. This doesn't work for videos so I will need to copy them.
I have a copy of iPhoto library manager software which could solve the excessive library size. That's cumbersome because I have to sync the correct library with the iOS devices and also make sure photostream is In the right library. I have only used this software a little so I could be wrong about this solution.
I appreciate any ideas that might work. Of course let me know if I am missing something, I am sure I am.
Would Aperture be a better solution? Some other software?1 - do not change to a referenced library with iPhoto - it has many problems and should not be done - if you switch to Aperture it is ok - Aperture handles referenced libraries fine
2 - iPhoto does not load your entire library and while 200 GB is large it is not giant and is not causing you an problems - if you ave problems please describe them and will try to help with thme -it is not libary size - My library is 263 GB and I have 8GB of RAM and there are no issues
3 - not sure what your constraints are but for me having all IOS devices logged into iCoud using the same Apple ID work best - the downside is that we all see the same things - which is our desire and I think yours

Suggestions consolidating iTunes accounts, home media network
Hello, I am not exactly sure where to post this, but much may revolve around iTunes store, etc, so I thought I would try here first. Really looking for advice, sorry for the long entry.
I am in the process of trying to reorganize, simplify and set up a nice home media/storage network for my wife and I (and kids as they get older) the opportunity to basically use and sync any of our devices/computers so that we all have access to a main music library, movies, etc. Here are my main questions, and the scenario ...
I have my own iMac
Wife has Mac Air
Have Apple TV2
Will each be getting our own iPod Touch
Airport Extreme currently used for home wifi network
External drive connected to Airport Extreme to store all/everyone's media?
My initial thought is this could function well as a media storage hub that all our networked devices could pull from? Or maybe there is a better option, setup that I'm not thinking of?
Consolidating two individual iTunes Libraries/accounts to one main one?
What is the best/cleanest approach? My wife and I each have our own, but are find merging if it is recommended. Is it recommended that my wife or I change one of our accounts/ids so we both now purchase off the same apple id? Then just combine our two separate libraries onto an external drive hooked to our Airport Extreme, and use that as a main media collection? Can that external drive then be accessed by the Apple TV as well as our personal computers? Or what if the kids down the road want their own account, if you don't use a single apple id to purchase content, is it difficult to have a central media driver with everyone's content?
For eventual syncing into iCloud?
Is it recommended that we put all devices (whether hers, mine, or kids) to the same Apple ID so all devices have access to all the same material? I'll admit I don't know much about iCloud yet, so this might be a basic question. Or maybe there are still ways to sync all devices even if through different ID accounts so the family doesn't feel I'm 'in complete control' ? Is media stored on an external drive for the network able to sync or be used in the same way by the iCloud service?
I'll probably have more questions, I hope these made sense, and again, sorry for the wordiness. Maybe its a simple setup, but if anyone has the interest or time to lend some advice on what has worked well for them, I'm all ears. Thank you!

My Displeasure with the Home Media DVR
Before I begin let me say that I love FIOS....it beats the competition by a mile. My disappointment however, comes from the software that runs the Motorola boxes badged as the FIOS Home Media DVR.
When I first moved to my current apartment I immediately signed for for FIOS when I found out that it was available. For three years before I got FIOS I was (and still am) a big fan of TiVo but I decided that it would make sense to try out VZ's DVR if it meant saving money and reducing the number of boxes connected to my TV so I gave the Home Media DVR and try and sent it back to VZ only three weeks after I began using it.
Two years later I decide to give it a try again because it was being advertised as a bundle that would save me some cash. I figured that bugs in the software would have been worked out by now so I didn't mind giving it a try again. Well I've had the box since Nov 08 and im almost ready to throw it out the window. Many of the problems I experienced the first time I tried the Home Media DVR still exist and thats very disappointing!
Unfortunately, I'm stuck in a contract with this stupid box until Oct this year but you can bet I won't waste a moment kicking these boxes to the curb and replacing them with my TiVos (thank God I kept them).
Unlike the Home Media DVR my TiVo's do not:
- Arbitrarily fast forward when they want without my input.
- Fail to respond to input from the remote if not pointed directly at the box.
- Fail to recognize the input from the remote and do something else.
- Have clunky fast forward and rewind. TiVo is smooth and refined.
- Have a tendency to jump to an entirely different folder after I delete a show in one folder.
- Have options that are un-clear when deciding if the user has to decide if he wants to cancel an existing recording to watch or record something new.
And finally, my TiVos never made me so sick with rage that I dreamed of ways to make it feel the pain and frustration it was causing me.
As I've already said, I love my FIOS internet and TV service but the Home Media DVR has TOO MANY FREAKIN BUGS. At this point I'm not waiting on wither VZ or Motorola to fix them; I'll just be waiting out my contract so i can send this damd box back to hell and place my TiVos back where they belong making me and my life much more happy.
Rant Over!Ya know, I like the fact that you can easily watch a show recorded on the Home Media DVR in another room in an instant.....But the negatives pop-up when you try to have any interaction with the box outside of stop and start. If that show has commercials and you try to skip them the DVR has a really hard time understanding what the satelite box it telling it to do. Then this odd problem I have with my box is that if im watching a show and I let it play straight through (not fast forwarding through commercials), it picks a point when it wants to start fast forwarding on its own and it doesn't stop. So if I walk away during a commercial break its possible that when I return, it will have reached the end of the show. (what the crap is that all about)
So while I like the instant satifaction the Home Media DVR provides in that sense, Its not enough to make me hate transferring a show using TiVo. -
I have several movies and home videos stored in itunes, when viewing these on appletv, it mixes all the movies and home videos together.
I would like to beable to select either Movies or Home Videos when viewing on the Apple TV if this is possible...?You have 2 options:
1. Create Video Playlists in iTunes (for example create one for Home movies, the other for Movies)
You COULD make these Smart Playlists. (see below for one technique)
NOTE: If you wish to do this don't miss the preference in Settings to enable Video Playlists at least (at least in the latest ATV updates) I believe it's under Audio setting. Amazingly the default is NOT to show!! (had me going for quite a bit)
2. Set up your Home Movies as "Music Videos" This has some gotchas: like you'll probably want to choose the skip when shuffiling, also Now they'll appear in music lists. The only advantage to this is that it makes playlists more available on iOS devices since there are no Playlists displayed in the Videos App.... (yeah Apple's made this WAY confusing of late)
If you wish to keep these clearly defined (especially for use with Smart Playlists.
Select the movie
Get Info (Edit Menu) (or Command-I Mac, Control-I, PC)
Choose the "Video" Tab - you can select your desired type from the Media Kind pop up.
Alternate method for setting up smart playlist of home movies would be to set the Genre to "Home Movie"
Probably more than you needed to know - leigh -
How to use iMac as remotely accessible home media server
First time poster, and thanks in advance for any help that any of you might be able to provide. -- Josh
I have a mid-2007 iMac, several AppleTVs and Apple mobile devices, and a 2014 Macbook Pro coming at the end of the week (more detailed info below). I have a roughly 1 TB library of movies, which are currently housed in an external hard drive attached to the iMac. When I'm on my home network, I'm able to stream all the movies to all of the AppleTVs, iPhones, and iPads, using iTunes and home sharing, with almost no problem. But, my family would like to access our movie library remotely, when at the airport, visiting family, etc.
I've researched various options, and am having a hard time parsing through some of the more technical information and figuring out what setup would work best. It seems to me that although I can't use my iMac as a second display for the new MacbookPro because of technical limitations on the iMac, I might still be able to use the iMac as a remotely accessible home media server. Running Plex on the iMac has been suggested, but I keep hearing conflicting information on whether the AppleTVs are compatible with Plex, and I've had trouble successfully forwarding ports several years ago when I played with Plex briefly. iTunes/home sharing is just so easy in terms of setup and reliability between Apple devices, in my experience. I looked into buying an AirPort Time Capsule, since I was looking into upgrading my router to support 802.11ac anyway (advice on that too?), but was told that neither the Time Capsule drive nor any drive attached to it would be remotely accessible. Back to my Mac seems like it might work for me to access my library remotely when using the MacbookPro, but not any of the mobile devices (which are more important to the kids), and I'm not sure what advantage a NAS drive would have over using the iMac (although this is where it starts getting a bit technical for me). Looked at OSX Server also, but not sure how that would interface with whatever additional components I need to get.
Thank you in advance for any help. I'm sure people have figured out a way to access their media libraries remotely, but for some reason I can't find a straight answer on how. I've included additional technical details about my setup below. Thanks again!!

If you have content you want to watch remotely then simply copy it to a MacBook Air or MacBook Pro and then bring one of the AppleTV's with you. Then you can stream directly from the MBA or MBP to the AppleTV on a remote TV. We did this on our last vacation, loaded a bunch of movies on my MBA, threw one of the ATV's in the suitcase and when we got to our hotel simply connected it using the hotels Wi-Fi and connected the ATV via HDMI to the TV and we were in business.
