You call those music videos?

I just checked out what music videos are available, and oh my gosh do they suck! SERIOUSLY. Whoever is responsible for them should be canned, or better yet, be forced to work for Microsoft. I know it's early, but where are all the great 80's & 90's videos?? Here's just a few:
1) Free Yourself - Untouchables
2) Unforgettable Fire -U2
3) Slave to the Rhythm - Grace Jones
4) How Soon is Now? - The Smiths
5) Accidents Will Happen - Elvis Costello
6) Shock The Monkey - Peter Gabriel
7) Baby Got Back - Sir Mix-A-Lot
8) Anything by DEVO
9) Change - Tears For Fears
10) Close to the Edit - Art of Noise
11) Once in a Lifetime - Talking Heads
12) Blue Monday '88 - New Order
This is just off the top of my head. It makes me wonder if the people in this department have ever even seen a music video. You have a BUNCH of a-ha videos, and you don't even have "Take On Me, " a popcorn song but one of the most innovative videos of its time??
Don't even start with the "licensing" issues.....whoever owns the rights would PAY Apple to put these videos up so people could buy them.

  • Why does you tube prevent music video downloads?

    I have figured out that music companies do not want you tube users to download videos to their hard drives or jump drives. Well, I want to. All the other videos work fine. I am using Firefox 18.0 with video download helper, and every time I download a music video, it says zero bytes. Zero byte download files, zero byte music video file. So I found the workaround to this problem to be save vid dot com, where I can enter the url to the music video I want to download and save it to my disk. Why does Firefox not allow this. Why does you tube not allow this. Money must be involved. Like I said, there must be some stupid reason why they don't want us to download their music videos. What's their problem. I just want to watch the video when I am offline, and save vid has saved me from getting angry again.
    All the other videos that do not have major sponsors download just fine, and it's sad that we have to find workarounds to stupid problems. Save vid allows you to save the you tube video without loading a spybot plugin that changes your home page and peppers you with ads, I'm glad they have it. I hope to save someone else the trouble.

    Actually, it is keep vid dot come, not save vid that i used, but both are legit websites that allow you to download videos from anywhere without a lot of hassle or unsafe plugins. Sorry about any confusion.

  • Can you play a music video and still view itunes store?

    I'd like to listen to a song I bought as a music video, but still view the itunes store. When i play the song it takes up the entire itunes window, is there any way to avoid this? I thought there was a way for it just to play in the bottom left corner.
    Thanks!

    Set the playback preference for music videos, etc. to play in a separate windows (iTunes preferences -> Playback pane). Then, as long as you don't need to preview an item in the iTunes Store, you will be able to play the video while browsing/searching the Store. At least in iTunes 8 (don't remember about iTunes 7), the window you can show at the lower-left in iTunes just shows the album cover or "poster" frame of whatever's playing; it's not a playback window.
    Regards.

  • How do you tell which music video to synch to your iPhone?

    I have a number of music videos which I have from various sources (youtube, some of my own dvd's, etc.). In order to keep them separate from regular movies (since the library group does not show music videos separately) I classify them as movies (otherwise they can be anywhere in the library) with the genre of music video. I synch these to my Apple TV with no problem. However, when I copy them to my iPhone Music Video playlist and synch my iPhone they normally will not synch as they aren't in the appropriate format.
    I then go back to my movies library, find the video, and create the iphone version. The problem is I now have 2 version of the video - the original (for Apple TV), and the iphone version, both with the same name in iTunes. If I put the incorrect one in the iPhone playlist it of course will not synch, so I have to select the appropriate one. However, since I can't figure out a way to see which is which in iTunes, I have to right-click the song in iTunes to reveal it in the finder. If the original is .mp4 (or anything else) then it has created an .m4v and I put the .m4v in the playlist. However, if the original was also a .m4v then I have 2 .mv4s. If I can't figure out by the timestamp which one is the correct version, I have to copy each to the playlist and see which one synchs.
    There has got to be a better way to do this ....

    Just got off the phone with Apple support. There is no direct way to do this. Here are the suggested workarounds:
    1. Display the date added. The video with the later date will be the iPhone version.
    2. Display the bit rate. The video with the lower bit rate will generally be the iPhone version.
    3. Create a comment in the Description field as to whether it is an iPhone or Apple TV version. Then create two smart playlists - one which does Apple TV versions and one which does the iPhone version.

  • Do you recognize the effects that's been used, when you see movies, music videos etc immediately?

    From AE and its presets for instance?

    Spider scene:  look at all the bad matting and mismatched black levels.
    Balrog scene:  bad compositing (esp. transparency where it shouldn't be), mismatched black and white levels.
    I think those were the worst moments, but the whole movie had very visible compositing mistakes, plus more than a few 3D CGI mistakes (bad motion match, bad camera match, bad lighting match, bad level of detail matches, etc.).
    When you work on this stuff every day, the mistakes just jump out (kind of like having perfect pitch and listening to a poorly tuned orchestra).

  • Can you extract the audio from a music video?

    Some of my favorite songs were purchased from Itunes as music videos. (Because they are also my favorite videos.) Now I'm trying to figure out how to move those songs to the iPod +without having to buy the songs as just songs!+ It's been very frustrating. "Create iPod or iPhone version" doesn't convert to anything useful for a Shuffle. How do I extract the audio from the video?
    Or do I have to buy the same music over again?

    Hello RoyFeni,
    And welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Can you change the music video's *Media Type* to Music from under the Options tab of the *Get Info* window for the track in iTunes?
    I'm not sure if you can, but hey its at least worth a try. It's all I have though.
    Otherwise, this is not possible via iTunes. The only way you would be able to extract the audio is through the help of some third party application. Not sure how simple or complicated the process is.

  • How do you get your cd pic and music videos on here?

    Ok Arctic Cat M6 & Superman56,
    SuperTiti is here :-D !!!
    Well, you have 2 possiblities !
    You scan the cover from your CD or you download it from Amazon.com for exemple...
    http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000AA300W/ref=pdcpt_gwi/102-9319419-2141713?n=5174 ...then you click on "see larger image" and download the bigger picture !
    Once done, open iTunes, select the album in the album section of iTunes then type "cmd+i" ( may be "ctrl+i" on Win$ ). Then just drag and drop the picture in the little window made for !
    Then drag the album to your Nano...
    IPORTANT : The picture(s) can not be added directly to the iPod thru iTunes ! It MUST be added to iTunes first, then you drag the song or the album to your iPod !
    Easy no ?

  • If you would buy a music video for a song, would you still purchase the audio only (.m4a) version?

    I'm just asking for your opinions. For example, I would purchase the music video "Blown Away" by Carrie Underwood for $1.99. So, now that you have the music video, will you still purchase the same song (from the album, audio only) for $1.29?

    No, just play the music video and close your eyes. 

  • Music videos in landscape mode ever coming back???

    Dear Apple, I doubt you'll read this or do anything but I guess it's worth a try.  It used to be that when you played a music video via the musof app on your iphone, it would display the video in landscape mode. Now, extermely inituitively, turning your phone to the side shows a selection of your album covers. No one wants that. I seriously can not think of one person. Looking in your own forums you have questions in 2013 asking to bring this back but no response has been given. That's called arrogance. This is not some big technical ask. It would take you little to no time so what gives? You say you care about the customer experience but between this and the iTunes library syncing issues I am beginning to question that.

  • Smart Playlist for Music Videos

    I've fought and fought with iTunes and I cannot figure out how to make a Smart Playlist that JUST HAS MUSIC videos.
    I'd like to have a list that just has my music videos in it, but I want it to be a smart playlist so I do not have to keep updating it.
    Anyone know how to do this?
    Thanks,
    mike

    I'm think you may be misunderstanding what I'm suggesting. I'm don't mean the "video kind" in the Options panel of the Get Info window. I mean the "Kind" located in the Summary panel.
    Each file in iTunes has a "Kind" designation. For example music you buy from the iTMS is Kind: Protected AAC Audio File; the video's I got when I purchased Neil Young's latest album are Kind: QuickTime Move File. The pilot episode of Conviction I download is Kind: Protected MPEG-4 Video File. I suspect this last one is what kind of files the music video's are. To find out:
    1. Click a video.
    2. Pull down File > Get Info (Apple+I on the keyboard).
    3. Click the Summary tab if it is not already selected (Apple+1 on the keyboard).
    4. See what "Kind" of file it is by looking at the top of the left-hand column.
    5. Click the OK button.
    Now that you know that is it time to create the Smart Playlist.
    1. Pull down File > New Smart Playlist (AppleOptionN on the keyboard).
    2. Make the appropriate menu selections so the criteria are "Kind IS Protected MPEG-4 video file." If your videos are more than one "Kind" repeat this step as necessary.
    3. Click OK.
    4 Give the playlist whatever name you want to give it. All your music videos will now be in this one playlist.
    However, since you want just music video's in the playlist you may still have to "do something" to make sure the TV shows don't show up in the playlist. For example you could put "tv show" in the comments of those files and have the playlist exclude that criteria.
    In general Smart Playlists can only work on the data that is in the Summary panel, and the Info panel.
