Names do not correspond timeline media manager

Hello,
I'm trying to use media manager to send a timeline with only the used media to Da Vinci. Something weird happens with the names of clips that come from the same source clip. Normally MM makes a new source clip for every clip in the timeline with the same name but adds a number. For instance, 2011104-1_guate2161_01 would become 2011104-1_guate2161_01 1, 2011104-1_guate2161_01 2 and so on. In this project only the first new source clip in the timeline has the full name. The new source clips that follow are called 2011104-1 2, 2011104-1 2 and so on. These names do not correspond the clip names in the new timeline which is not a problem for FCP. DaVinci however doesn't recognize these names and needs the full names (inc guate_2161_1) based on the xml.
I tried both naming options in MM but the same problem occurs. Any ideas?
cheers

I found the solution,
After the MM proces, take all clips in the new timeline offline and reconnect them again with the new master clips. The names in the timeline now correspond the names of the new master clips. Next make a new xml and voila!

RMAN not retrying on media manager errors

Hi,
I'm using Oracle 10g, RMAN and TDPO (the TSM client for Oracle). I'm
trying to do a PITR to a non-production machine, but RMAN is intolerant
of any media manager problems that crop up, so things like this
ORA-19511: Error received from media manager layer, error text:
ANS1017E (RC-50) Session rejected: TCP/IP connection failure
and this
ORA-19511: Error received from media manager layer, error text:
ANS1314E (RC14) File data currently unavailable on server
result in an immediate 'failover to previous backup'. The first error
was caused by a transient network problem; I suspect the second was just
bad luck as the file was being reclaimed by the TSM server when TDPO
asked for it.
Both these errors would have gone away if RMAN had tried again, so is
there any way I can tell it to retry on error? If not, is there
something else I could do to improve the situation?
Thanks
Sandeep

Media Managing to Prores for 5d clips on mixed timeline

Hi, I have a largish project (1TB footage) whitch is mainly SD but I have some 5d & Sony Ex footage. The majorety of the timeline is SD but there is a little 5D/Ex whitch is native footage and has to render (it is a SD timeline). Is there a way of converting the 5D/Ex clips I have used in situe (i.e. not having to convert the clip and redo cut). I know I could just convert the whole timeline into prores but this is a feature doc and would take a long time and use a lot of disk space. Also I am not ready to media manage for grading/sound edit (it is still a rough cut).
The reason I ask is I know this can be done with Avid if I consolidate.
Any ideas?
Ben

Move the clips you want to convert to their own video track. Duplicate your sequence, delete the SD footage and media manage what's left. Then replace the original tracks with the Mediamanaged tracks.

Media Manager does not appear on my second stb

I downloaded Verizon Media Manager and installed it without problems. When I checked my HD stb the program is listed and I could use it. I do not have any kind of recorder on the network. When I check my non HD stb the VMM does not appear. This is the unit I want to use as it will allow me to play music through the home theater sound system.
So, am I limited because I do not have a recorder or does the feature not work on non HD stb? If this is the case, I might as well delete the program from my PC.
Solved!

Hi. I apologize for the inconvenience. Unfortunately at this time, the standard def STBs do not work with Media Manager. It doesn't have to be a DVR, but the stb has to be an HD box. If you do not wish to upgrade the STD box at this time and depending on your setup, you can always swap the STBs and move the media manager functionality to where you want it.

Blackberry Desktop Manager does not show Media Manager

First, let me say I am a NEW Blackberry user, my hubby and I both got new Blackberry Curves 8310 recently.
   When I installed the disc that came with the phone, the Blackberry Desktop Manager does not have the "Media Manager" as one of the choices, as was shown on all of the booklets and tutorials. I even re-installed the program, thinking maybe it didn't download completely the first time, but it still comes up showing only these 4:

Seriously, none of these really means a whole lot to me, I just want to click on something and have it work . . . I did try to "upgrade" to a newer version, and I got the message that the version I had was the newer one, so now what?
I have memory cards inserted in the phone(s).
I will appreciate any help with this, I'm really frustrated. I figured out how to move files manually, but I don't understand why it isn't showing up as illustrated in the instruction manuals and online tutorials.

Media manager mess

Am encountering an issue with "media manager" in FCP.
I wanted to create one master file for my latest project with all relevant clips and resources, so i made a "copy" of the project in media manager and then chose to "delete" (though not permanently) any material not used in the project.
Everything seemed to be fine but I wound up with a bizzare problem on the audio timeline line - audio seemed to cut and then repeat itself - as if a duplicate tack had been produced and then laid in 1 minute into the film.
Anyone know of this issue? Am trying the process again.
Thanks
Andy

The ProRes capture would be cleaner than DVCPROHD would be.
I'm not surprised deleting unused media was where the problem lied... truncating GOP structures is no mean feat I'll wager, and likely not a huge priority for the FCP team. After all, tape is disappearing and will be gone from the scene in fairly short order most likely... AVCHD makes more sense.. that way you'd have smaller files to begin with (not whole tape captures for example), and managing it would be a lot easier. But I'm digressing....
Even capturing to DVCPROHD will result in a lot larger files though smaller than the ProRes captures. I'd suggest maybe if you source HDV as HDV and just live with the MM problems, render to prores in your sequences (it's 40% faster than native HDV rendering), you'll not be as worried about the storage space not saved through media management because the files are so much smaller in the first place...? Dunno.. need to know more about your workflow in general to make a suggestion that really is based in something meaningful to your particular needs. But figure I should through out what I'm thinking.

Burning DVD's to Media Manager

I wanted to know if I can burn my DVD's (movies) and load to media manager to watch on Fios?

Do you mean rip/duplicate your purchased DVDs to a format to use with media manager? If so, I believe the answer is no. Duplicating most of the commercially purchased DVD content is a violation of copy write laws. There is a lot of software that will allow this to be done, but it does not make it legal.
I have found software that will play the VOB files, but have not found any that will support the indexing of the VIDEO_TS.IFO. I do not believe that Media Manager will support the file formats. I believe you can rename the VOB extension and they may play, but due to the legality of it, I did not pursue the issue.
I wish they were as easy to manage as MP3s and regular Audio files since you did purchase the right to view them. Thank bootleggers and Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA). Even flex view has some sort of copy protection. I have not purchased any or looked into it. I would prefer to have a DVD in my hand. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MPAA
Some DVD do have a digital versions that can be played on smald portables, but usually in a smaller screen size and reduced resolution. This is due to file space limitations on many portables.

Missing Media Manager

Phone: Curve 8310 dumbphone with AT&T specific Desktop Manager software
I can't seem to transfer audio or video files to the phone. I don't even see a logical software path to follow. Everything I read on this says to use the Media Manager that comes with the desktop software. Blackberry's website referred me to a page with the correct software for my AT&T 8310 phone, but that software does not include a media manager or anything by Roxio. Just two synchronizing utilities, backup/restore, switch device wizard, and application loader, but no media manager. How do I go about getting it?

Select the latest desktop manager, then select the version with the MediaManager (like the 3rd link down).

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
Paul
Powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

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

BB 8330 Media Manager, Media Sync hanging - not connecting...

(I just know this is treated in depth somewhere but after a couple of hours of searching, I can't find it so appologies in advance...)
I have a BB 8330 from Verizon running v4.5.0.77 - no media card.
Using Device Manager, the:
Driver version is: 4.1.0.4
Driver Node Strong Name is: oem25.inf:RIM:RimUsb.Device.NT:4.1.0.4:usb\vid_0fca&pid_8004&mi_00
Windows thinks the driver is up to date.
I am running Desktop Manager v4.7.0.32[Nov 4 2008]
When I launch DM, I can successfully Back up my BB.
On my Vista PC - When I attempt to launch Media Manager 9, it has found the files in the Library but it goes into a wierd loop where it keeps seeing the F: drive and then removes it and then resets and then sees it again - forever (or at least for the day that I left it in that loop)
I loaded the DM on another PC running XP and observe a similar behavior - it's not quite as zippy so it just looks more like a hang
To try something different, I downloaded Media Sync v2.0.0.22 and, when the BB is connected, I get the error: "BlackBerry Media Sync failed to connect to your BlackBerry device. Click Retry to try again or Cancel to disconnect." - I get the same error with and without the DM running.
Something seems sort of hinky in that, while my BB is plugged in on my Vista system, occassionall I get the lights flashing on my keyboard like someting is resetting the USB every few minutes (unrelated Vista crap?).
Please help...

You are going to want to get a media card if planning to add music-ringtones-pictures-videos. Don't want to use up device memory. It'll go fast.

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.

Media Manager not deleting unused media from HDV (intermediate codec) clips

I have a project which uses HDV footage which I captured using the Apple Intermediate Codec. I now have a bunch of clips that are very large in file size so I'd like to use the Media Manager to delete all the unused footage from the clips. I have tried countless different selections of sequences, clips in the browser, clips in a timeline etc but can't seem to get the Media Manager to show a smaller file size for the processed files based on 'Use Existing' with 'Delete unused media' option. The two size meters at the top always stay the same. Can the media manager trim HDV/Apple Intermediate Codec footage? If not is there a way to get rid of the footage that I haven't used? Thanks!
Ben

I've never mastered MM. If I want a small section out of larger clip, I simply just export that section of the clip using 'current settings'.
Hope someone who has tamed the MM beast will step in here and offer you a better way...
good luck.

Media Manager not collecting all files to new destination - Why?

Specs: 10.5.8 / Final Cut Pro 6.06 / Dual Quad Tower -
So here's the conundrum. We've got a lot of video projects to backup (about 80) and move to another drive.
When we go to media manager and ask it to copy files over to a new destination, it grabs MOST of the files associated with the project. But without fail, it will not grab and copy all of the files that were sent to Soundtrack Pro. Any STAP file on Final Cut Pro's timeline gets left behind.
Why is this?
Here's a screen cap of our settings...
http://www.kchtenthusiasts.com/webpics/mediamanager.jpg
Any and all suggestions appreciated. Thanks!

Media Manager won't solve this for you; it's a game. You will need to manually locate and move tons of stuff like photographs, music tracks, movies from After Effects or Motion' almost anything FCP did not actually create.
You must carefully test each of your MM files. Very carefully.
Instead of relying on MM, ere's another possibility: Just clone your scratch/render/output drives and then remove stuff not associated with the projects. Then copy the FCP project files to the drives. This sometimes works for us because many of our projects use the same footage, over and over again. If we were using MM, we'd be copying the same stuff many times. If we just clone the drives the copies of the FCP projects easily relink to the footage in whatever source folder it might live.
