Fix missing video thumbnails in iTunes6
Authored by: berada on Oct 16, '05 01:04:27AM

I can't set poster frames from within iTunes 6 for SOME video files. This is a bit weird. .mov files created with QTPro 7 will work, some .mpg (mpeg 1) files will work but others wont (these files have been d/l off the net) and the .m4v files created using the new "Movie to iPod" export option in QT 7.03 will not allow me to set poster frames in iTunes or save them from QT Pro after having set the poster frame.

My work around for the .m4v files is to open them in QT Pro, select the frame I want as poster frame and copy it, add file to iTunes, get info, select artwork tab and paste. This will set the poster frame to what I choose. Clumsy ... but after stuffing about all day ... best I can do.

some of my videos mystify me, i have the first 9 episodes of Lost Season some of them i can change the artwork no problem others it's actually greyed out in the get info, i used the save as referance movie in quicktime pro so i can play divx files, and i just can't get around the greyed out thing, other than converting them to mp4 and reducing the quality (which no doubt it would)
