Videos and media manager

The on-screen guide says that Media Manager allows you to access photos, videos, and music. However the Media Manager application doesn't seem to support video. Is this feature coming soon?

LOL - Yea.... I went through this... spent time setting it all up and then no video support... which is the ONLY reason this feature is worth anything as listening to music and watching static pictures is better done directly from a source on your TV so I'm confused why anyone would setup something so mildly intricate to do just static displays and mp3 streaming.
I also talked to verizon about their "wording" as they had the terminology all wrong (not to mention clearly stating video would work). They changed it all within 24 hours and told me that "streaming video ain't gonna happen" ... at least not yet

I have disabled my ipod since I forgot may password; if restored will I lose my videos and media? How can I enable my ipod without losing some of my pictures and videos etc?

You have to place the iPod in Recovery Mode and restore via iTunes. This will erase the iPod. You can restoire from backup to get back to when the backup was made.

FCP and media management

Hi all, dreaded but simple media management question here concerning rendered effects.
Lynda.com has no tutorial on this matter...
How do I manage them?
Assume scratch disk, rendered audio/video, autosaves, etc, are all on the same drive, everything going to the 'FCP Documents Folder'
Lets say I've got L&T AVCHD clips to prores lite, no problem, placed in the capture scratch folder under a folder of the project name I names (and that FCP has placed a folder). Lets say I'm using a bunch of Boris effects. I render them, view them, change them again, render again, etc, I've finished my sequence knowing that I have orphans of rendered effects ('orphans' is an avid term for rendered effects that are 'older versions', which means you can always revert back to an 'orphan' if you didn't like the new version of a rendered effect).
OK in the finder, I see the rendered effects folder under the name of my project, with all the rendered effects (and orphans, I believe). While I could do that manually in the finder I know it's not the smart way of doing it. I always want to think large scale.
Is there a function WITHIN FCP NOT THE FINDER that allows me to... I don't know... 'clean up' old rendered effects that are not media relatives to the sequence(s) I've selected of that particular project in the canvas?
cheers

Holy Grail of information!! I'm just trying to get my kiddo's room to not look like they vaporized out of their clothes every day!
But yes... there is the render manager under... um... tools maybe?
Try that.

IPad and Media Manager Issues

I just installed the Verizon Media Manager App on my iPad and it will not pull anything from my pc. It keeps telling me to register. It lets me sign in with my id, lets me bookmark things, but I cannot pull media from my PC. It is very frustrating. Want to be able to view flex view stuff for the kids while on the road and cannot. Also cannot find the fios on demand app in the App store. Please help. The other app that is not working at all is the MY VZ account app. I cannot check bills, pay bills, check email or anything you should be able to do with it. If the app's are buggy, pull them. Please advise with any solutions.

Here's the master page for all of Verizon's apps. Right now only the Media Manager app is available for iPad.
In order to view your personal media, it must first be uploaded to your FlexView Library. This can be done using the Media Manager application on your PC or Mac.
The Media Manager iPad app also allows you to stream Flex View movies and TV shows you have purchased from Verizon, whether you bought it on your set-top-box, PC or phone. In other words, it also serves as the FiOS On Demand app.

HELP WITH FASCINATE AND MEDIA MANAGER

TRYING TO RUN VZ MEDIA MANAGER WITH FASCINATE TO TRANSFER PICTURES FROM PHONE TO PC BUT THE MEDIA MANAGER SAYS IT MUST SHUT DOWN BUT I CAN STILL USE PROGRAM WITH ERROR MESSAGE UP. WENT THROUGH ALL THE TRANSFER STEPS SAYS PICS WERE TRANSFERRED BUT NOTHING IS THERE ANY IDEAS

Don't use vz mm. It sucks. Make sure you mount your phone/card right. Connect usb cable to phone and the other to a usb port on your cp. Pull down notification bar from the top of the phone screen, select to transfer, mount phone. Then just drag and drop or copy and paste. I ended up deleting the mm because it's slow, doesn't really work and imo is just an attempt towards win mp. Hope this helps!

Clip Import and Media Manager

Prior to moving to my MacPro and using Final Cut Pro, I used a PC and Adobe Premiere Pro to capture several reals of tape resulting in over a hundred clips in AVI format. I'd now like to import these clips into FCP to begin actully working on these projects.
However, when I import the clips I get a "Media Warning Message" that tells me the clips are not optmiized for FCP either re-capture the clips (not practical) or use Media Manager to "...create new copies of the files to improve their performance for multi-stream playback."
I've tried to make sense of the documentaton on Media Manager and how it applies to this message but can not quite get a handle on what I'm supposed to do.
So, any help or suggestions would be greatly apprecited. (Fortunately, I only have two project that I have to do this for.)
Carl

My apologies for the long delay...I finally figured out that when I installed FCS I got QT Pro. Today I tried a conversion of one clip from my old AVI files. So, my next question is the format and process. It looks simple enought: open the AVI clip and then export it. For two clips I used the settings "Movie to Quicktime Movie" and "Most Recent Settings". Is this what I'm supposed tobe doing? And, I again apologize for these very basic questions.
Thanks,
Carl

FIOS TV and Media Manager turn themselves off

Every night our TV and the Media Manager box to which it is connected switch themselves off at random times.. This happens once or twice an evening, as well as during the day if the TV has been on for a couple of hours. I then hit the "Tv" and "STB" buttons on the remote, followed by "Power." (Usually after that a message flashes on the black screen telling us to press "menu" if we want to watch TV (as we had been doing before the screen went black).

Is the TV power cord plugging into the Verizon box?
If your TV is plugged into the power outlet in the Verizon box and this is happening, please plug the TV in elsewhere. There could be too much power draw for the box causing it to restart.
If the TV power cord is plugged anywhere else other than the Verizon box, theres nothing the box can do to power off your TV. There would be something else going on. You would need to investigate your electrical signal thats feeding those devices.

Re-capturing in different format....and media manager?

Okay this project's media and settings are all as DV NTSC Anamorphic, but when the client approves everything, I need to re-load the media as it's original HD 1080i60 format. As I'm thinking about the process I'll take, I want to get opinions from you guys b/c I've never done this before. I've used Media Manager for eliminating all other/unused media, etc....but would I use it for this instance?
I know I'll want a separate project with the appropriate HD settings and to make the media in the sequence re-load as HD. But another thing is that I'm wondering how that even works since the clip properties are already permanently set...
Sorry, hope this makes sense...I need more sleep!

G'day,
When you go to re-digitize your sequence in the new HD project:
1. select all the clips on the appropriate timeline
2. open the Log & Capture window
3. set your capture settings to your desired HD format
4. select all clips in T/L and batch digitize
5. *important* make sure to UNCHECK the Options: 'Use Logged Clip Settings' box
6. add handles if you wish
Hope this helps.

What's the diff btwn: Sync only chkd songs & videos and Manually manage them?

There's no way to logically logic this out. Sounds like a Mensa question. OK, the full text:
For iPhones, iPads, I assume iPod Touch too (don't have one), when you set your sync/backup prefs in iTunes, under Summary > Options: checkboxes #3 and #6 read:
Sync only check songs and videos
Manually manage music and videos
To confuse more: if I cycle thru the tabs after plugging an iDevice (Apps, Tones, Music, Movies, TV Shows, Books, Photos), except for the Apps page, each has a checkbox at the top of each page such as: Sync Tones, Sync Music, Sync Movies, etc.
Checking any of these boxes allows you to "manually" then check the content you want to move on to your iDevice, and of course unchecking an item on your iDevice will remove it upon Sync/Backup
Back to Summary > Options:
I thought I'd experiment:
I had #3 checked plus the Sync boxes on the Music, Movies, TV Shows, Books and Photos (from iPhoto). I unchecked it and nothing changed.
Then I checked #6. Oooops. #3 grayed out, and all my checks on each page unchecked.
Worse, going to the Music page, where you can see all your songs in your iTunes Library, without the Sync Music checked, the page is blank. Checking it again brings forth a very scary alert
So.. until I figure this out, seems my experimenting may cost me to cleanse my iPad Air of all it's music. Not the end of the world, I just have to recheck what I had on it from Library and reSync.
Adages a side (curiosity killed the cat comes to mind)
I have to assume there are differences, even if just nuances between all these options for managing your stuff on your iDevices. These options have been in iTunes for as long back as I can remember. Unfortunately today I was backing up readying for iOS 8 and got curious, and here I am. Woe as me.
I'd sure like to understand all this, and know what should be checked if you want to manage your media and apps manually.

How to undo unwanted changes like mine above:
I luckily opened my iPad Air in the left column of iTunes where Playlists are and clicked Music (still experimenting, will I EVER learn?) but I got a message noting that I had made a change and did I want to Apply, which as you know from above I didn't. I clicked what ever the negative was (No, Cancel, etc.) and my settings were all restored as before I started checking and unchecking. Even my Summary > Options #3 was checked as before starting all this.
Whew. Saved.
But I still as I bet many others want to know how to manage the manage checkboxes

10.6.7 Video and media problems

I just downloaded the new mac update for my iMac and have found that youtube both flash version and html5 aren't working and audio files on tumblr aren't playing. It seems to be all through Safari since itunes and its movies are working.
What should I do?

I don't use tumblr so I can't check on that for you, but I just checked youtube after updating about an hour ago and I had no problems - have you checked on the Adobe Flashplayer site to make sure you have the latest version?

Refinement and media management

I have captured the maximum amount of footage that my computer has space for, and I have already made this footage into sequences and burned it. Now I need to delete the original captured footage so I can capture new material. Is there a way I can delete all of the clips that are not being used in a sequence? Thanks.

Yes, but very carefully - make absolutely sure the clip(s) are not in use by another project.
Captured clips are normally located in your Final Cut Express > Capture Scratch folder. They can be deleted from there.
Render Files also take up a lot of space. You can delete them too, but if you accidentally delete a render file that's being used in another project, you'll have to re-render that part of the project. Not usually a big deal.

FIOS Media Manager Video Macroblocking - What format/codec works best?

I watch a video on my PC, crystal clear. I watch the save video in Media Manager, and it is very choppy, grainy, and blocked. I have tried every video format. Does anyone have any advice for overcoming this? Thanks!

You're out of luck, video support is just plain broken in AA3. The beauty is, it was broken in AA2 as well, and they didn't bother to fix it between the releases. Amazing. If I was doing my job the way Adobe do theirs I'd be unemployed by now. So, you either accept AA3 the way it is or go back to AA1.5 where the video playback worked reliably. Or use some other software for audio-for-video purposes.

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 - Images tranferred - Displays a red X

Have 8703e BB. Have Internet Services turned off directly by Sprint - don't need it and do not want to be charged for the non-communication Casual Data Usage (a slick illegal method cell phone companies charge when internet services are turned off - had to file federal charges before they took it off my bill). Can't download ringtones or pictures.
Tried to transfer ringtones and images a while ago and Media Manager would not recognize my device. Finally found out that without an external card, the Media Manager would not recognize my device.
However, just installed the new OS and Desktop Manager 4.2.2.14 with Media Manager and it recognizes my device!
I transferred a ringtone from my PC to my device and...YES...Viva La Vida plays!!!!
BUT, two images I transferred show up with a generic image thumbnail and the picture displayed is just a small red X in the upper left hand corner. Yet, when I highlight the folder in the device in Media Manager, the pictures display very clearly.
To also clarify, the pictures reside in MEDIA>PICTURES>DEVICE MEMORY
Under properties for the folder, the file path is - /Device Memory/home/user/pictures
The sizes of the pictures are 37KB and 65KB, hardly any different than the images in the Preloaded Pictures folder, which path is /Device Memory/samples/pictures
Is this a BB issue or Media Manager issue? As I said, the ringtone transferred and works, the images transferred and are listed, but don't display. Anyone have a solution to this problem?
I've reset the device by taking the battery out, etc. Nothing. Pictures still give me the red x.
Thanks,
Dan

Ok, so this has been driving me nuts for such a long time. I did everything that anyone suggested and nothing worked. This included creating a new temp internet files folder, checking and unchecking all the appropriate boxes, creating a new profile, and
most other things suggested. Then I cam across something on a forum (sorry I don't know the link) that made me think. I looked through the reg to the key HKCU>Software>Microsoft>Office>15.0
(I use outlook 2013 but previous versions of office were there as well.)>Outlook>Security>OutlookSecureTempFolder. My setting was C:\Users\"USER"\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\TIF\Temporary Internet Files\Content.Outlook\B5U77NH4\.
NOTE: TIF is where I chose to create the new Temporary Internet Files folder. Ur most likely will be different or not there at all!!!
What I realized was that the last folder in this setting was different that the actual folder on my harddrive. So I edited just the last folder B5U77NH4 to be the same as the folder on my HDD. WALA this worked and works great currently. All the other fixes
sometimes worked for a short while but always reverted back. I do have to say though that prior to doing this I went into Internet Options and deleted all the browsing history. EVERYTHING it sucked for freq visited websites but I wanted to start fresh.
Then I physically selected every item that was still in my Temp Internet files folder, even B5U77NH4 and manually deleted every item. That way any folder that was created dynamically would be gone. What was left and would not delete was B5U77NH4 so that is
the folder I chose to copy into the registry.
]This has been so frustrating but now it seems to work. I hope this helps.

Media Manager 9.6.12 won't run; insists that I "upgrade" to same version, refuses to run

Every time I run Media Manager, an Upgrade window appears with the options to "Quit" or "Upgrade".
I can't use Media Manager because I can't dismiss this upgrade box without selecting one of those two buttons.
- Clicking "Quit" exists the upgrade application and Media Manager completely,
- Clicking "Upgrade" closes Media Manager and launches "Verizon Media Manager-9.6.12 Setup", with the options to Repair or Remove.
I've repaired the installation several times with no errors, but every time Media Manager launches, this process starts again (with the modal Upgrade window). I've completely uninstalled Media Manager (both through the Upgrade app and via Add/Remove Programs) and reinstalled it from a fresh download. I've rebooted at every opportunity along the upgrade and remove/reinstall paths. The results are always the same: double-click Media Manager, it loads, it says I have to upgrade or quit.
I'm running on a fully patched XPsp3 machine. The only other apps on this box are Panda Cloud Antivirus, TRENDnet SecureView (IP camera montior), PerfectDisk (defragger), and an [inactive] installation of Cerberus FTP Server. The machine also serves as a VPN gateway into my home network (via built-in XP services, nothing 3rd party). Besides periodic updates, no programs have been added or removed in at least two years.
The problem likely started sometime within the past few months; I just noticed it I recently when I went to check the PC's status.
Suggestions?

I haven't other reports of this happening. Are you able to successfully install and use it on other machines in the house? It sounds like there is something interacting with it causing problems which we would need to isolate programs one by one to find which is the offending program.
