No thumbnails inside media browser

I love the new media browser inside AE, but it serves me no good if I cannot see any thumbnails to my XdCam footage. Any possible reason this is happening? Bug? Codec issue? Any help thanks!

That feature is not implemented yet.
The Media Browser implementation in After Effects CC (12.2) is just the bare minimum necessary for Adobe Anywhere.
We will be implementing more of the features in the Media Browser in the next couple of releases in 2014. No promises, but I think that the features that you're looking for regarding thumbnail previews will come in the second half of this year, of all goes well.

No thumbnails in PP Media Browser

Hello,
I am working on MacOS X with Adobe CS4 Production Premium. Our footage is either Sony XDCAM EX or AVCHD. The XDCAM files are copied via Sony's Clip Browser, i.e. with the complete BPAV structure. The AVCHD files are transfered via iMovie, resulting in .mov files with the Apple Intermediate codec. The reason being that Canon does not deliver any transfer software for Mac with its AVCHD camcorders.
Anyway, the result usually is quite a bunch of directorys and files, that would be great if it could be browsed easily. Unfortunately, Adobe Bridge can only show the transfered AVCHDs, not the XDCAM EX files. The media browser on the other hand does not allow for quick browsing, since it does not show any thumbnails. Neither for the movs nor for the XDCAM files. I only get a list of the file names. These are not helpfull at all, since that only tells me which camera was used and the order in which the clips where shot.
Now I saw on Adobe TV a video from MAX 2009 with a screencapture of Premiere with the media browser open and thumbnails all over the place. This is what I wished for all the time. Why do I not get thumbnails in media browser?
Kind regards,
Andreas

Photo thumbnails not displaying in Media Browser

Every time I open a program that features the Media Browser (which is just about everything in Leopard, these days), I never see thumbnails for my iPhoto images. I just see exclamation point icons-- in other words, the images themselves are never displayed.
In iPhoto, I can see individual pictures, but not events. For events, the images are just embossed "blank" boxes. I don't understand what's happening... can anyone offer some help so I can get my Media Browser working the way it's supposed to... along with iPhoto?

...save it as sRGB?
Would you care to comment on why there is an advantage to do this little extra job?
Perhaps you don't want to hear from me, I don't know.
I'll answer just this one little question. Try to get your mind around what color management does, I promise it does make sense (outside of unexplained problems on particular computers).
You want to save your web image with the sRGB profile embedded because some Internet browsers are color managed, and with an embedded profile it's more likely someone will see your image colors just as you intended.
The assumption is that a lowly windows user with a cheap monitor and Internet Explorer will be seeing any image you save as "roughly" sRGB anyway. Tagging the image with sRGB only affects those with color-managed browsers.
You're looking for the most possible consistency for the viewing audience.

No thumbnails or ability to import in Media browser

Ae CC 13.0, Windows 7 / 64.
My Ae media browser shows icons with file names - but no thumbnails - and the right clip import option is greyed out. Same for all file types. File directory and All supported file types are selected in the filter menus.
Any thoughts?
Thanks

These are known issues with the Media Browser panel in After Effects. You can import items by double-clicking or dragging into the Project panel.
We don't currently recommend the Media Browser for most After Effects users, as it provides little additional functionality over existing import methods. It was added to After Effects for compatibility with Adobe Anywhere, and lacks some of the capabilities available in Premiere Pro. Feel free to test it, and please report problems or requests for improvements here: http://adobe.ly/feature_request

PP CS6 Media Browser displays thumbnails upside down

Hi,
I'm using a 2010 MacBook Pro 17" 3.06 GHz, 4GB RAM,
NVIDIA GeForce 9400M GT, OS 10.6.8 and PP CS6.02.
When I'm viewing stills in media browser, it's displaying many of the thumnails upside down and side ways.
Not sure what else to say about it or do.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Simon.

PP won't reorient stills that were taken with the camera turned on it's side for portrait shots, so I wonder if that's what you're seeing here. The shooter had the camera turned or even upside down at the time.

Why doesn't my files show up in the "MEDIA BROWSER"?

I recently shot footage on my SONY CX-550 HD camcorder. Each day's footage was downloaded to my desktop in separate folders ( DAY_01, DAY_02... thru DAY_08 ). There are many clips in each folder ( 00000.mts, 00001.mts, etc. ). In PPRO CS5's "MEDIA BROWSER" I can see the clips in all the folders except DAY_02 and DAY_08. If I move a clip out of the folder to another location ( DESKTOP ), the "MB" still does not list it. I can, however, drag the clip from the DAY_02 folder into the PROJECT WINDOW and the plays correctly in the SOURCE WINDOW. I use the "MB" to quickly review a clip by double-clicking it. Having to drag each one into the "ProjWin" for review is time consuming as is reviewing the clip thru Windows Media Player. BRIDGE CS5 displays a thumbnail for each clip as expected. So, why does the contents of just these two folders not display in "MB"?
Thanks in advance,
Sonny Gaither

You're welcome. My mistake, I completely misread your question. Unfortunately currently I don't have any email threads to check it out, just replys from the Apple Support Communities.Sorry.

How can I add a folder of MP3s to Final Cut so they show up in the media browser?

I have a collection of royalty free audio clips in MP3 format. I would like to get them to show up in the media browser, so I don't have to go to the finder each time to get them into a project. Any idea how to do this?

If you want them in the Music and Sound media browser specifically, rather than in your Event Library, then you could easily just add them to your system's iTunes library, then access them via FCP X:
http://help.apple.com/finalcutpro/mac/10.0/#ver549f1ed1
Or if you want to avoid adding / organizing them in your iTunes library then you can just drag and drop your already organized MP3 folder directly into the Sound and Music media browser pane inside FCP X and the app will add that folder to the browser inside a new "Folders" category.

Premiere cs6 does not see correct images in media browser

Hi Folks,
I'm working on a project in CS6 Premiere (On an iMac with Mavericks running) and I cannot get the Media Browser to correctly see/import the still images (JPGs) I want to use. Instead, it sees all 8 images as the same image, though with different file names. I've reopened Premiere a few times, closed and opened Bridge a few times, renamed the files (Premiere still sees the original file names). Is it a matter of clearing the cache? If so, can someone explain that process?
Thanks for your help!

Thanks Ann,
I tried that but Premiere is still seeing its original view of the images (all thumbnails are the same) - the newly saved image doesn't even show up in the Media Browser.

Keynote 6.0 Mavericks - media browser shows no movies

In the media browser I can only see movies that are in imovie - not the ones in my movie folder or itunes as I could before the update. How can I include more folders in the media browser?

First thing to check if media in iTunes does not show up in the Media Browser inside other applications like Keynote is if the content is downloaded in iTunes. Often content is viewable in iTunes but may still be in the iTunes Cloud and not physically downloaded to your computer which is what the Media Browser requires.
To show purchases that are in the cloud go to the top menu bar and click on iTunes>Preferences>Store and put a check mark in "Show iTunes in the cloud purchases." Now when you are looking at your media in iTunes you will see a "cloud" icon next to items that are in the cloud and have not been download yet. You can click on the icon to download the media into iTunes and it will then be visible in the media browser for other applications.
Also if you just want to download all your media content at once then go to the home screen of the iTunes Store section within iTunes and along the right hand side of the window under "Quick Links" you'll see a "Purchases" link that will take you to where all of your past purchase from the iTunes Store or kept. Here you can download all your Music/Movies/Books/Apps that you have ever purchased and do it one at a time or all at once.

Most aperture photos not showing in media browser

I have Aperture 1.5 and I can view all of my albums from the media browser, but when I click on an album, most of the thumbnails are exclamation points and they wont drag into any pages documents. Some photos in the albums show up and they go into my documents just fine.
I have gone into aperture and selected ALL 13,508 photos and forced thumbnail regeneration, but I am still having the same problem.

I am working in Keynote. The icons in the media browser just shrunk! How do I return them to normal size?

Try highlighting the thumbnail of the slide you want to play, before clicking 'play'.

Some Aperture stills not appearing in iMovie 11 Media Browser

Hello all,
I have been importing images into Aperture for a while now and just realized that iMovie (09 and 11) are not reading some of the stills I have stored in it. I have made sure that all my images are stored in an Aperture managed library and not as reference files. When I start up iMovie it takes a while and scans for new videos but I'm concerned with the stills that are not appearing. I can see the project and album titles appearing in the Media Browser but iMovie states that there are no files inside. I've also told Aperture to always share previews with iLife and iWork. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

Welcome to the forums.
The fact that you are able to see the Ap library and the project suggests that there maybe no previews available for that project.
At the top of the Library tab is a little cog, within here is an option for previews, also in the Ap preferences is another option for creating previews, check that these are set correctly.

IPhoto doesn't show up in iMovie media browser

I have the fully installed iLife 06, and when I am in iMovie and go to the media browser to pick an image, nothing shows up to populate the browser. It seems as if the browser is not seeing iPhoto. I have tried this with iPhoto open and closed. No difference. I have thrown out the iLife media browser plist. Still no luck. Threw out the iPhoto plist. No luck. Repaired permissions and restarted. Stilll no luck. Coincidentally, the mark/space photo conduit for my in The Missing Sync cannot see iPhoto also. It's as if other programs have no clue that iPhoto is installed. Anybody have this happen? What's the fix?

SGMS,
Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
You are right. That example describes the keyword information from the AlbumData.xml file, not the keyword list in iPhoto.
In the iPhoto keyword list, click on your first keyword to select it. Then use the down arrow key to highlight each keyword in succession. If you come across a blank space in the list that becomes selected, click on the - symbol below the list to delete it. I have seen several reports of a blank keyword causing the problem. Another easy check is to click on a keyword, then click Rename to highlight it. If you see a blank space before or after the keyword, delete the space.
If that's not it, I'll explain further. Dave E's instructions are for how to read the AlbumData.xml file to help identify if you have a faulty keyword. The xml file is just inside your iPhoto Library Folder. You have to access it through the Finder. (Be warned not to change anything you find from the Finder, though.) Right-click (control-click) on the AlbumData.xml file. Choose Open with > Other... then navigate to the Application Text Edit. When it opens, type Command F (Find) and in the Find box enter "List of keywords". The document will scroll down to show you the text where the keyword information is listed. This is where it looks like the description by Dave E. If you see 2 keywords lumped together, then you close the xml file, go back to the keyword list in iPhoto Preferences, and edit or delete the words that did not have the same format as the others.
