Video clips are not sorted by capture date

I am running a 30 days trial on LR5 as I want to "ascend" from Photoshop Elements / Organizer to PS CC / LR. I noticed immediately that movie clips from my (Sony) digital still cameras don't sort by their capture date/time, but instead put at the bottom of the catalog. This is a no-go for me - I have been used to Organizer doing it the right way for a decade, so the big pro should also be able to get it. The problem is the same in a converted Organizer catalog, and I am not sure I want to pay for a product that fails on such a significant matter.
I have seem some related discussions about meta-data for video, but not found a solution. Adobe / others, what is the plan or best workaround?
Kind regards,
Henrik Hermansen

LR's support for video metadata is "incomplete" (i.e. buggy), and since Adobe hasn't addressed the problem for over 3 years, it seems unlikely they'll fix it any time soon: Lightroom: LR4 Beta: Metadata applied to videos in Lightroom isn't available in other applications.   I use my Any File plugin to manage video files in LR -- it properly handles video metadata (but it's a little clumsy to use due to limitations of the LR plugin SDK).  The Video-Asset Management plugin works similarly but provides a few more features specific to video.

  • Some photos are not sorted correctly by date

    I just imported some photos from my friends camera who were on the same trip. However, I noticed that a couple (not all) of his photos are not sorted correctly by date in the Event. A photo from day 3 somehow comes before the photos from day 2. I checked the extended information and the dates on the photo are correct. Has anyone had this problem and know of a solution? Thanks.

    It might be of some help to delete the photo cache. Please see this link - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314

  • The imported clip are not sorted by date/Time

    I have just imported a bunch of tapes (mini-DV with time stamp ok) into iMovie. 150gb of video !
    I have imported the tapes evenly but now, I want to see all my clips sorted with the date-time order of the DV timestamp. Is it clear enough ?
    Thank you for your help

    "Sort iMovie's Clips Pane by:

         •     Clip Name (Up to three different columns)
         •     Time Stamp
         •     Dragging rows within iMovie Pane Reliever's main window"
    But it doesn't say it's really the time stap from the tape, although I get that impression.

  • Uploaded photos to iCloud photo library are not sorted by their date

    I have uploaded some photos from my digital camera memory card and they show up under "Today" with the upload time, and not the date time of the picture:
    Create Date                     : 2014:12:27 15:08:50
    I would have expected the uploaded picture to be sorted by Moments in December 27, 2014 set of pictures.
    Is there a way to have iCloud photo library put the photo in the right "Moment"?
    Thanks,

    No

  • Fcpx: the video properties of this clip are not recognized.

    The original footage is 300fps hi-speed video, shot with Casio Exilim EX-F1. Resolution 512x384, framerate 29.97
    When I imported the footage into FCPX, I marked "Transcoding: Create optimized media". So I did.
    Now I start a new project, drag the clip into the timeline and I get the message "The video properties of this clip are not recognized." andI can choose to import the clip as 640x480. But I don't want that, and why have I just transcoded into pro-res if FCPX itself cannot recognize the clip afterwards? What am I missing here?
    For the record: I also bought Compressor4 and Motion5 so if they are needed for my solution, no problem. I tried importing the clip first into Compressor4 but couln't find a way to export into a FCPX-project.
    Short note about myself: long time Premiere user, recently switched to Apple + FCPX.

    I can't show you screenshots because I don't have access to FCP at the moment. Take the first clip you want to be in the project. Open it into the timeline using the Open in Timeline function. You can now blade this clip however you like. Cut the beginning, cut the end. Slice it however you want it. The audio will be separate from the video. You can collape it into a compound clip if you want. This only happens with the first clip. Leave the timeline open. In the event event browser, find the second shot you want. Mark In and Out points. Press the E key to append it to timeline. You want to insert a a different shot in the beginning. Move the playhead in the timeline back to the beginning. Find the shot you want in the browser. Mark in and out points. Press the W key to insert the shot. You want to add transitions. Select the clips in the timeline and press Cmd-T. You want to add a timeline. Put the playhead in the timeline wherever you want. Double click the title to put it into the timeline. Add more shots into the timeline. Do you see what's happening? You are editing your program into that first clip's timeline. The dimensions of that first clip remain intact in that timeline. When you export you're exporting that clip's timeline. As I said, it's not ideal, but it's a workaround. Basically FCP only works with standard video formats.

  • The latest Premier Pro CC 2014 update forced me to convert and create version of my project while guaranteeing that the project would not be altered; however, the timelines are not the up to date versions I had.

    The latest Premier Pro CC 2014 update forced me to convert and create version of my project while guaranteeing that the project would not be altered; however, the timelines/sequences are not the up to date versions I had. I saved different version of this project for various purposes, but they were all named differently(i.e joe and mary wedding, joe and mary wedding 2, joe and mary wedding 3, joe and mary wedding 3.1).  I do not know if they just pulled the timelines from the earliest version, eradicated the data entirely, or something else.
    Since the program prompts me to create and save a new version for the updated premier, I still have the previous projects, but cannot open them.  I imagine they are unchanged, but cannot be sure.
    Thoughts? Is it possible to uninstall an update re-install it later?
    Please advise.
    Thank you.
    Brian

    Also...
    Add to right click menu of timelines an entry for "go to next keyframe" and "go to last keyframe" a la After Effects, we should also be able to assign a kb shortcut to this.
    There are buttons on either side of the create keyframe button to advance forward or backward in the effects control panel or timeline.
    You can also advance forward or backward in the effects control window by holding shift while dragging the playhead.
    Allow copy/paste of selection of audio/video effects, not just one at a time. Sure we can copy/paste attributes but since we can also copy/paste effects it would only make sense to allow to copy/paste a selection of effects.
    I guess I don't get this one. If I have 5 effects on a clip, I can simply command-click on the ones I want to copy over to the other clip.

  • HT4221 Lightroom 3 Win 7- iPad 3 iOS 5.1.1 - images are not sorted by file name in albums

    photos are not sorted properly. thougts? suggestions?

    20050518 - 18.52.24 - 0002.jpg

    I found that mobile data stopped working on my iPad once upgraded to IOS 5.1. I have resolved the problem by re-applying the settings in Settings > Cellular Data > APN Settings which had (very bizarrely) been over-written as a result of the upgrade process.
    Clearly your APN settings will be specific to your data plan, but if you contact your contract provider, they should be able to tell you what they are.
    Hope this helps.

    I am using final cut express 4. It seems that any clip over a certain length, say 5 min, does not fully transfer! All shorter clips are perfectly fine. Is there some reason why longer clips are not fully transferred? (a half blue circle shows up on the transfer list, indicating that the clip was not fully transferred. When I check in the capture scratch folder, sure enough the whole clip is not there!
    Is there some glitch in final cut express that only allows short clips to be transferred in full?

    Thanks for the reply. I'll try to answer all the questions (I am a relative novice). Your help is appreciated.
    By the way, the other reply I received suggested the following:
    In Final Cut Express>System Settings>Scratch Discs make sure the Limit Capture/Export File Segement Size To: is not checked.
    I did this and it was already unchecked. So this is not the answer...
    The strange thing is, I have been logging and transferring with FCE for 2 yrs without any problems at all with shorter clips, but have come up against the problem with long clips (over 5 or so min)  the whole time. I got around it by simply making sure I stopped recording after less than 5 min while shooting footage. OR if I accidentally got a long clip, I import into imovie and then import into FCE. Not very streamline and I worry about compressions altering quality!
    I am now trying to import a 20 min and a 17 min clip and it only transfers around 3 minutes of each, I have re-tried several times and it happens repeatedly. The blue circle in the transfer list shows up as a half blue circle instead of full. Clip cuts off after 3 or so minutes.

  • My video clips are rotated left on my harddrive.

    After I synced my video clips and pics to my harddrive my video clips are opening up rotated LEFT. How do I fix / correct the view and how do I prevent this from happeing in the future? Please advise.

    Well, MS WMP does not always honour the metadata that dictates the way the video was shot and should be displayed.
    You need to use some video editing software that can rotate the video for the corrext orientation.

  • How Adobe Premier Pro's linked video clips are ID in Bridge?

    I just finished a FEATURE-FILM in HD comprised of 40 + different Adobe Premier Projects;
    Obviously, at the end you end up with many video clips associated to manyAdobe Premier Projects (i.e.; one video clip could be being used by 17 Adobe Premier Projects), and some video clips are associated to none.
    So this is the thing: I need to delete 5,000 + useless-not associated video clips, however, to make sure that I am not breaking any link, I need to know that they are, or they are not associated with any of my Adobe Premier Projects.
    How does Bridge indicate that a video clip is or is not associated (linked) to an Adobe Premier Project?
    Thank you in advance for your help

  • Video clip did not export in the Slide show

    I recently created a photo slideshow in Aperture for my grandmother's funeral.  I exported it as a movie to play through apple tv but when it played the slideshow, the video clip was not there.  When I preview the slideshow in Aperture, its there and it works.  But it did not work as an exported movie.  any suggestions?

    My friend gave me his presentation into which he wants me to embed video clips of him talking on each page. The video clips will be made in Photo Booth when he comes to my house. I have made a practice video clip of myself with Photo Booth and see how there might be problems, and if so, what can I do?
    The pages were initially text and graphs made in Excel and then placed into his PC Powerpoint program. Then I put that Powerpoint presentation into my Keynote program and thought that all was going well with my transitional devices and first and second page created in Keypoint.
    Alas, the problem now is that I can get the original page to show up, and I can get the little video clip to show up, but I don't know how to make the window stay open until the video clip ends (when he finishes speaking to the page).
    Do you have any thoughts about what I can do? Should I record him on the iMac's video cam rather than Photo Booth? If so, that's going to be new for me, since I have had this new iMac for only two weeks now.

  • Entire frame of mini-dv video clips do NOT show in the iMovie '11 viewer in playback mode

    I am editing a wedding video in iMovie11 that was recorded on a mini dv tape.  When I move video clips from the event library to the timeline, the entire frame is displayed in the timeline.  However, the entire frame of the video clip does NOT show in the iMovie viewer or when I playback the video.  I exported the video and burned it to a dvd using Toast 11 pro.  The video recorded to the dvd as it was showing in the iMovie viewer... the full frame does not show.  I would certainly appreciate any advice as to how to solve my problem.  THANK YOU!!!

    Is your video shot in 16:9 aspect ratio or 4:3?
    You can go to File/Project Properties and set the aspect ratio for the project.
    When you get a clip that does not match the project's aspect ratio, you use the Rotate, Crop, Ken Burns tool on the middle toolbar to specify how it should be treated.
    FIT will place the entire clip in the movie, and will letterbox (black bars) so that it fits.
    CROP will fill the screen, but will cut off the top and bottom of your frame.
