PPro CS 6 Media browser returns to first clip

When I select a clip in the media browser and import it to the source window, the media browser jumps back up to the first clip in the file list. To explain further, let's say I have 200 clips in a folder and I want to look at clip 190 and 191. If I import clip 190 to the source window, the media browser list and or thumbnail will jump back up to clip one in the folder requiring me to scroll all the way down the list back to clip 191. This is very time consuming.
Is there a way to make the media browser stay where it is in the folder and not return to clip one?

Your method sounds correct.

Media offline (but not first clip) when import cs4 project to cs5

I've several clips in a cs4 project. All original clips, all from the same footage, are in the proper folder. When I imported the project into my fresh cs5 install, the first clip shows up properly -- video and audio are present -- but the rest in the sequence show "media offline." When I search for the clip and select it to be linked, I'm informed that "The selected files do not contain audio media used by clip references in one or more sequences." Clicking yes then gives me a clip in the project resources and timeline windows with no sound.
This makes no sense, since all clips are from the same source footage. If the first clip in the sequence is fine, what's the problem? Thanks for your help.

I figured out what has happened. The clips were all from same original source, but somehow some had audio coded in mp2, others in mp3. The first clip was mp3 and Premiere CS5 version spotted that codec. For some reason PCS5 is not spotting the mp2 codec, while CS4 could, which is why I didn't have this problem back then.
The initial "media offline" message is terribly misleading, and the audio problem message is not specific enough. I'll try to get CS5 to use the mp2 codec CS4 worked with.
Thanks for your time.
Just to confuse things more, It's worth noting that the mp2 clips show up in Bridge cs5 and the audio plays fine there. What's with Premiere Pro? Irritating.

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.

Can't burn iMovie on DVD via share- media browser

Hi, I am a novice with iMovie. I have filmed my twins' first Xmas carol concert with my Canon digital video camera.Now I want to burn a simple copy of the film fro my white MacBook onto DVD for fellow mums.I did share->media browser then iDVD ->new project . It says project errors while adjusting or sth like that. Then ask me for a theme ??? and Dropzones?????? Help I don't want anything fancy just my raw film on a DVD. Also the film has only 7600MB a new 4.7GBDVD +R disk has not enough space, how come???? I spent now 3 hours trying to achive this without any luck - PLEASE someone out there have mercy!

daveslave101,
Karsten Schluter has some suggestions on how to just make a simple no theme DVD project here on this message thread:
Home Video in _TS starts in DVD player automatically when I copy and burn it will not start automatically. How do I make a good copy to start automatically?
Set the Project to 'Structure View', then drag the video project from the Media Browser into the first 'box' that appears in the DVD structure view of the project. Also note, iDVD doesn't pay any attention to how big your finished video clip is. It only pays attention to how long the video clip runs. iDVD will allow you to create a DVD just under 120 minutes in length (but it will take a while to crunch everything down into the space available). Ideally your project would be just under 60 minutes (and that takes much less time to transcode into MPEG2 format for the DVD). As long as your video runs under 120 minutes iDVD will be able to fit it on the space of a DVD+R disk I think. iDVD also takes into a account all the 'interface' items you aren't going to use (menus, animations, thumbnail video clips and music), that takes up space too, so you might be closer to 100-110 minutes run time at a maximum for an iDVD project.

Can you see which timeline clips are being used in Media Browser?

I'm a relatively new user and may not be familiar enough with cs5.5 but
is there a way to see what clips are being used on the editing timeline in the media browser.
I open premiere pro - Project is loaded. I edit the scene until it is finished.
When I look over at the media browser, all my raw clips (some of which I'm
using on the editing timeline) look the same - I can't tell which ones I using on the timeline.
The reason I ask - when I fiinish editing a scene it would be nice to glance over at the
media brower folder where my raw clips are located - easily see which ones I'm using because they
are highlighted or checked and then delete the ones I no longer need.
Is there a way to do this now?
Thanks
Jeff

I dont think so but a better way is to look in the top of the Project Window and there is a drop down that will show you all the useage instances of the clip. You can click on them to go to them in the timeline.

My Media Browser in Garageband doesn't display anything except the very first song I have in this mac.

I have been always wanting to edit some songs and make a remix of it. However, the media browser in garageband in my macbook pro doesn't display any songs, except the very first song I added to my laptop. I have tried to do every suggestion from other forums (e.g. check the itunes library, etc) and none worked. One thing I realised is that I can still drag and drop the song directly from Finder to my Garageband timeline. Nevertheless, it annoys me whenever I open the media browser since this is not what my mac should do. I would be very grateful if someone could assist me with this matter.

Have you checked, if the search field at the bottom of the Media Browser is cleared? It should be set to "All", if you click the looking glass. Otherwise the list will be filtered.
And the drop-down menu should show "iTunes", if you want to see all songs.
If these simple measures do not help, try the fix for "oddball" problems and remove the User Preferences - see the FAQ:

OWC RAID 5 not showing up in PPro Media Browser

Hello all,
I've seen other threads about OWC RAIDs not showing up in PPro and the solution has been to use the Mac's Disk Utility to reformat the drive. Disk Utility can't do RAID 5 though and that's what my 16TB OWC Mercury Elite Pro Qx2 is set to. If I use the File->Import command I can see the OWC RAID but it is not present in the Media Browser (nor in the window that pops up to re-link offline media). FCP 7, AVIC MC 6.5 and After Effects CC2014 all 'see' and interact with the OWC RAID just fine. The problem seems to be isolated to Premiere's Media Browser function.
If anyone has a suggested work around I'd love to hear it.

So it turns out the answer was in front of me all along, just use Disk Utility to format the drive and all is well.
What threw me was that Disk Utility only does RAID 1 and RAID 0 but since the OWC Mercury Elite Pro Qx2 is a hardware RAID I just set the RAID mode using the switch on the enclosure and then use Disk Utility to format it like I would any other disk.
The simplicity of the solution coupled with my lack of experience with RAID boxes proved to be my undoing. haha.
With that being said, I'd still like to see if Adobe can fix the issue w/the default OWC formatting tool.

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

Hi all, my first time on. I shared my imovie project to Media Browser. Fine. Then after it downloaded it 'disappeared.' Where did it go? Having found it, how do I then share it with idvd? I am told the image quality will be much better this route.

CS5 Media browser - missing clips

Hello all,
Tried to use media browser to import clips and it will only see SOME of them.
I transferred the entire AVCHD native root folder from each of my 3 cameras and placed them on my PC's media drive in folders labeled camera 1, 2 and 3 respectively.
Camera 1 media browser will only see files 99-154
Camera 2 it sees nothing
Camera 3 it sees all of them
This is when viewing as "AVCHD" in the media browser window. If I select "View as: File Directory" it sees every file in each of the cameras folders. If I navigate through the folder structure in Windows Explorer all the clips/files are present.
My cameras had all been cleared of any other footage prior to the shoot, contained only footage was from the day of this particular shoot. Oh, and just to help with trouble shooting....FCP's log and transfer window sees everything just fine, so I am fairly certain that it is not file/folder corruption
My own trouble shooting:
Connecting camera 1 to the PC directly via USB and CS5 media browser when Viewing as: AVCHD, sees files 99-154
Connected to the Mac, CS5 media browser when Viewing as: AVCHD sees files 99-154
Connected to the SAME Mac opened FCP's Log and Transfer window and it sees everything. Files 1-154 with thumbnails.
AM I MISSING SOMETHING?!? Please help......thanks in advance to anyone who can help me with this.

Well I am just gonna keep posting my research on this matter here on this forum in hopes that SOMEBODY......ANYBODY....can help me to find out the reason for this issue.
I filmed a wedding Saturday with 4 Panny HDC-HS700 AVCHD cams. Shot b-roll all morning, shot the ceremony, then the reception.
my camera 2 had 96 files on it. all the files were short clips except for the ceremony which was about 27 min. long. NONE of the files on this camera exceeded the 4gb file size limit of the camera's harddrive. So there were no spanned files.
PPRO would not see ANY of these clips in the media browser when in "View as: AVCHD" but would see all of them in "View as: file directory"
Now for the fun part.
I turned my camera on made 6 more short clips to put the total to 102 and then recorded for an hour and ten mins. straight. creating a spanned avchd file in with all the other 102 clips.
Plugged the camera into the PC directly, and found that PPRO now sees clips 97-103 in "View as: AVCHD" in the media browser....but the first 96 are not there still?!?!?!?!?!?
I have another instance where I filmed a pretty large job in Atlanta a few months back, so I pulled that footage in........it would again see all the files in "View as: file directory" but this time in "View as: AVCHD" it would see files 1-20 then skip to files 121-259
I will add again that Final Cut Pro 7's Log and Transfer window has seen ALL of the above mentioned clips spanned and unspanned without issue whatsoever.
PLEASE HELP.....starting to lose my mind here.
I HOPE that I am doing something wrong....so that the fix will be easy.

Media browser is all black please help

Hi after doing an update my garage band media browser is black, can you help me....

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!!
I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2 each should result in a message coming to your BB):
1) Register HRT
Homescreen > Options > Advanced Options > Host Routing Table > (it does not matter which line is current) > Register Now
2) Resend Service Books
KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
3) Batt Pull Reboot
Anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness creeps in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Hopefully that will get things going again for you! If not, then please provide exacty symptoms of what is going on..."not working" doesn't really give us much to go on. Is there an error message of some sort?
Thanks!

MXF Missing Audio in Media Browser, or Is it?

Happy Fourth of July to all my American friends. Did you know it's going to be the Forth of July up in Canada and everywhere else in the world tomorrow too? Can't tell you how many times I've been asked if we have the Forth of July in Canada. Duh, of course!
So I've got a weird thing going on. I use Sony Clipbrowswer to cut up my BPAV files and trim everything down and then I convert them to MXF (I personally HATE the BPAV folder structure). I look at the clips in Media Browser in PP and I get perfect video, but no audio.
I then import the clips into the project and look at them in the Source Monitor. Same thing. Video, yes; audio no.
I drag the exact same clips into the timeline and they come in with 4 channels of audio (huh?) and BOTH the video and audio work fine. Not sure what's going on. I would really like to see AND HEAR them in the media browswer and source monitor so I can set my in/out points.
Any ideas? BPAVs of the same files act normal, just not their MXF sister files.
Happy Forth to everyone else in the world too!

Any ideas?
Yep. The Source Monitor has the annoying limitation of only being able to preview one audio channel of a multi-track clip at a time. So, even though your source footage has four mono channels, by default, the Source Monitor will only preview Track 1. You can change that to Track 2, Track 3, etc., but no matter what, you can't hear a mixed monitor output.
What I suspect is happening is that your first audio track doesn't have any audio, or it's very low. When you drop the clip wholesale into a sequence, you can hear the audio because you're getting all four tracks mixed. If you click the Output button in the Source Monitor and change to Audio Waveform view, you can use the track selector dropdown to choose which audio track you want to preview. Unfortunately, this isn't "sticky," so you'll need to do it each time you open a multi-mono clip, if your primary audio isn't on Track 1.
I've made several feature requests for improvements to this functionality. I work a lot with P2 MXF, and this has driven me half-mad; whenever I interview, I put my primary audio (lav) on Track 2. Previewing and marking up clips like this is a bear without proper audio monitoring.
Anyway... does that fix it?

Projects "Shared to Media Browser" don't actually appear in Media Browser

Hello all. I've got one of those "it seems so easy I must be doing something wrong" questions. (I accidentally posted this in the iMovie HD forum by accident, the first time. I'm actually using iMovie '08.)
This is the first time I've tried this, and I can't seem to get it to work. I've made a bunch of projects in iMovie that I now want to bring into iDVD. I've started "Sharing" them to the Media Browser, but they're not showing up there. Doesn't matter which other iLife app I use to look -- iWeb, iDVD, GarageBand all do the same thing -- when I look in the "Movies" section, iMovie is there, as are all the Events in my Event Library, but from the screen shots I've looked at, I think the "Shared" iMovie projects are supposed to show up there, just above the Event Library clips, right? They don't.
In iMovie, they look "shared" -- the shared projects all have the "row of square boxes" icon next to them, so it looks like something did happen -- but I can't select them in any other iLife app. My next thought is I'll just export them instead of share, and import the files directly from the Finder, no big deal, but I was just wondering if anyone knows why the Media Browser thing isn't working for me?
I'm using iLife '08 and I have my Movies folder on an external drive (could that be part of the problem?)
Thanks in advance, everyone, for any assistance you can render.

I've started "Sharing" them to the Media Browser, but they're not showing up there.
1) Sharing to the "Media Browser" stores the project export file in your named_Project folder. As long as you do not delete (or modify) the project, the file(s) will remain available there.
2) Your "Media Browser" files should be located under the "Movies" tab at the very top of your "Media" browser list immediately under the "iMovie" heading and not under the "Movies" heading. (I.e., they have the yellow icon as opposed to the purple source "Event" icon.

Media browser does not show photos

The media browser in iDvd & iWeb does not show the photos in my iPhoto library. It does show the tunes in my iTune library but not the photos in my iPhoto library. When I click photos in the browser, the browser says, "Open iPhoto2 or later or Aperature1.5 or later from your iPhoto or Aperature library in this list."
I have iPhoto6.0.6. When I made a DVD two months ago everything worked okay. I suspect that I am missing something very obvious, but to date it escapes me. Does anyone have some experience with this problem? Please help.

One thing that you can try is the often used maintenance of deleting preferences and doing a permissions repair. To delete preferences, close iMovie and iPhoto and trash the files named com.apple.iMovie.plist and com.apple.iPhoto.plist found in User (the house icon)/Library/Preferences. Then restart your computer and do a permissions repair using the Disk Utility app found in HD/Applications/Utilities. In the left hand pane of the Disk Utility window select your hard drive icon and then click on repair permissions. Takes about 3 minutes to repair. Then relaunch iMovie and iPhoto and see if you still have the problem. Those applications will recreate the .plist files that you deleted.
However, this might be an iPhoto issue, and I would suggest that you post your question in the iPhoto forum as well.
Have you updated iPhoto recently? Have you made any manual changes to your iPhoto library? Do you use keywords? Is your iPhoto library stored on an external drive where possibly iMovie can't locate it?
It could be that you just need to rebuild your iPhoto library. You can do that by holding down the Option and Apple keys while launching iPhoto. Then chose the first 3 selections in the drop down menu. But be sure first to back up your iPhoto library to guard against power outages or other probs during the rebuild process. As I say, check with the iPhoto forum if deleting preferences and repairing permissions does not work.

GB 08-Importing mp3 file from media browser---does this affect source file?

Hello again,
Another question...
I imported an mp3 from my iTunes folder into GB (to jam over). I did this via the media browser, and it came in fine. I next wanted to create a looped rhythm segment from that file to jam over. I know how to do this, and then add it as a loop to the library. However, does this alter the source file at all (in the iTunes folder)? Do I need to make a copy of this in the GB folder first before I start splicing? I think I read that GB will not alter files, just "regions" but I wanted to make sure.
On a related note, does GB point to a location for the source file (even if it's been spliced)? So if I moved that iTunes folder would it be a problem?
Thanks!

However, does this alter the source file at all
no
does GB point to a location for the source file (even if it's been spliced)?
yes, and no. originally, yes, but once saved as a loop, that little clip is saved as it's own file to your lib
So if I moved that iTunes folder would it be a problem?
same as above. it will in the first case, won't in the second
