What video codecs other than "avc1" will show .mp4 as a TV program?

What video codecs other than "avc1" will show .mp4 as a TV program in iTunes?
Some of my TV shows have the video codec "mp4v" and show only as movies in iTunes.
My Philips portable DVD player will play .mp4's with video codec "mp4v" but not "avc1".
I'd like to save only one format of the files. Is there a conversion or update that will allow iTunes to identify the "mp4v" as a TV show?

Ran into the same issue myself, and just posted my experiences in a related thread:

  • What video codecs can be used with Premiere CS4?

    What video codecs can be used with Premiere CS4?  Or are there to many to list?  I'm looking for a solution to import a .AVI file created with a H.264 codec.

    PrPro can work with so very many, but certainly not all. Some, like DivX will work for Export, but I have never gotten good Import of that material - always something wrong somewhere.
    For H.264, there are three very popular versions: Apple, Lead and MainConcept. The Apple version installs with later versions of QT Player, the other two are available, and many users like them better. They solve some H.264 problems, mainly with Export.
    For a bit of background, you might find this ARTICLE useful.
    Good luck,

    Are you sending HTTP response headers that instruct Firefox not to cache the pages?
    You can get a "document expired" message if you use the back button to return to a specific page and the web site has instructed Firefox not to cache the page.<br />
    Firefox tries to retrieve the page from the server, possibly by sending POST data.

  • I am using Windows XP on my laptop. Had to format the C drive. I have reinstalled iTunes but I am unable to add anything other than music, TV shows and movies to the iTunes library. It is not showing any option to add podcasts, books, photos or apps.

    I had to format the C drive recently. I have reinstalled iTunes but I am unable to add anything other than music, TV shows and movies to the iTunes library. It is not showing any option to add podcasts, books, photos or apps. These things are available on my iPhone but are no longer there in the iTunes library. Please help.

    In iTunes go to general preferences and check the boxes for those you wish to see in the library.

  • If I replace my Ipod touch 4th gen screen with a local company other than Apple will the apple warrenty be void or will the warrenty be void if I replace the screen myself?

    If I replace my Ipod touch 4th gen screen with a local company other then Apple will the Apple warrenty be void or will the warrenty be void if I replace the screen myself?

    Regardless of what Apple may or may not say about repair work done by a third party (a non-Apple company or you yourself), the Magnuson-Moss Act precludes them from voiding your warranty simply because you had work done by a third party or used non-OEM parts.  Typically people hear of thie Act as it is applied to cars. Car manufacturers cannot require you go to a dealership for repairs or that you use OEM parts. They cannot void your warranty for doing that. The Act applies to all consumer goods. Computer manufacturers cannot require you send your computer to them for memory upgrades or that you use memory supplied by them. Apple cannot require you to go to Apple for repair work or that you use Apple parts in that repair. 
    With that said, though, if you have a problem in the future, Apple could make the claim that it was the result of damage from improper repair or substandard parts. Your only recourse would be the court system, not a quick or inexpensive endeavor.

  • Is there a good video available for beginners which will show what Photoshop can do?

    I'm trying to find a good video which will give a general introduction to what Photoshop can do - not how to do it - for a group of beginners at our local photographic society.
    Ideally I'm looking for something which lasts 15 - 20 minutes and will demonstrate how Photoshop can be used for correcting and manipulating images, plus a short section on how it can be used more creatively.
    Is anyone aware of such a video which is preferably free to use (with obvious credits), and where it's available from?

    There are multiuser/multiplatform apps that you can use to manage your photos that can view multiple source photos.  I use  Media Pro 1.  However, you can't use iPhoto and MP on the same set of original/source image files.
    I use MP as my primary DAM (digital asset management) application and iPhoto just for special projects like books, calendars, cards, etc.

  • Preferred video formats/Codecs other than QT/MOV?

    We’ve got a project coming up that will involve a lot
    of short (2 min) videos so I’m thinking it’s time to
    review our video standards. The source is typically a mastered DVD
    video disk (I know, not a good source but most corporate clients
    don’t know any better) or in rare cases hi-rez MOV’s
    straight off something like an Avid system. Either way we’ve
    got to crunch these files into something that plays well with
    Director 11/XP-SP2 and Vista (I love Mac’s but it has been a
    long time since any of our clients cared if a project was Mac OS
    compatible).
    In the past we’ve used MPEG-1, MPEG-2 in limited
    circumstances, and our current standard is 720 x 480, WMV-9 (main,
    not the advanced profile), 1000-5000kbps depending on storage
    constraints. Delivery is almost always disk based so bandwidth is
    not an issue however some of our clients like the 3” mini-CDs
    (180Mb) and even on a full sized CD storage is often a concern
    (distribution of our projects on DVD-ROM is still uncommon). Lately
    we’ve been getting requests to convert the source files to
    FLV/On2 or Sorenson for web/Flash applications and I’ve been
    wondering if it’s time to start using these in Director as
    well. Has anyone been using this format or have opinions on getting
    the best possible video into Director while still being compatible
    with an average corporate user’s PC?

    FLV/VP6 is excellent quality with small file size and
    possible to play
    within Director with no extra codec/application installed -
    just through
    FlashAsset Xtra. Highly recommended !!!

  • I bought a new computer (Windows 8) and plugged in my 2TB drive containing 100,000 songs and iTunes won't recognize 5,000 of them no matter what I do other than re-encode them.  Any ideas?

    All I can figure out to do is to sort the "unknown artist" and "unknown album" tracks by album name (yes, it shows the name of the artist and album in Windows Explorer ironically) and then move each album's worth of songs to the library which then show up as Unknown - and then I can re-encode the tracks to go where they're supposed to be but all track number info is also gone so I have to edit each track to add track numbers.  This is a nightmare of gigantic proportion that will take months to fix.  It's like all of these 5,000 tracks (out of 100,000) were not encoded properly to begin with although I can't imagine how that happened since I encoded thme from CDs originally.  What a mess!  Any ideas?  Please join in.
    P.S. why do they never include iTunes itself as the option that you're having a problem with?

  • Lightroom CC is far too slow. What to do other than go back to LR 5

    I've read quite a bit on the net and in these forums. Having un-ticked the CPU acceleration, I still think LR CC is slow and gluggy. Anyone have any suggestions to speed it up?
    I will go back to LR5 until it's better

    I see no point in keeping any backup older than a month.
    If my "working" catalog went bust in Jan 2013, would I want to open a backup of - say - May 2012? What would that help me?
    BTW: The catalog backups done via Lr are not incremental, each backup contains the full catalog, not only recent changes.
    Reminder: you don't have to fall back to the older catalog for *all* things/photos. You can judiciously import from older catalog if need be.
    Put another way: backups are full, but restoral can be "selective".
    Also, don't forget the role of xmp for augmenting a catalog backup - one can get some stuff from an old backup, then overlay recent xmp to restore recent edits. Not only that, but it's also possible to selectively restore some things from xmp, whilst leaving other things - granted it takes a text editor (if sidecar) or exiftool (if embedded) and some know-how.
    No question: you burn less bridges by keeping old catalog backups too, regardless of who you are or what you like. How important that is to you (or whether it's important at all) is a personal thing.

  • So Exactly What's Different, Other Than More Memory?

    The "just released" and long awaited new iPod touch seems to be pretty much of a dissapointment for most folks it seems.. where's all the anticipated features like the camera, or at least a microphone? Is the only real changes then just that it has 64Gb of memory? I can't believe that's all Apple did to upgrade the previous 32 Gb model!

    50%? MEH.... if we were talking 100-200% ThAT would be something easily perceivable. 50% will get unnoticed by many.
    You obviously haven't used an iPhone 3GS alongside the 2nd gen iPod touch then have you? It is most definitely noticeably faster in pretty much everything.
    Processor speed is not the only factor in making a computer run faster. The iPod touch (Late 2009) and iPhone 3GS both have double the RAM of their predecessors, and that speeds things up immensely.
    Apple, you are BORING me.
    Simple answer... stop hanging around on these forums, and reading about what Apple are doing if its so BORING. Surely there are less boring things you could do?
    I submit you are boring MILLIONS of potential customers.
    I submit you are boring MILLIONS of Apple Discussion users with your constant whinging. The last couple of months all we've read from you was about OS 3.0, WiFi, etc. Now it's OS 3.1 and the iPod refresh.

  • Export slideshows to codec other than h.264?

    I'm trying to export a slideshow I've created for use in a larger video project. I brought up the "custom" option in the slideshow export options in iPhoto '09 and changed my QT settings to fit within the Final Cut Pro project.
    720x480, 29.97 fps etc. I changed the codec to a few different things (animation, prores, uncompressed) and every single time it snaps back to h.264 and turns the options for fast start and audio back on even though I unchecked them.
    Anyone know how I can get iPhoto to stick with a higher quality codec? The compression really makes the photos ugly and they are going to be edited with other video elements and recompressed for DVD eventually... I was hoping iPhoto would save me from having to put moves on 160 photos!

    No.
