Problem to update files after sent to iTunes #701

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Hello,
I am having problems to update files after I sent them to iTunes.

I had a lot of files in AVI, that I have converted to Mov, and then - using 
Subler - I have added metadata and subtitle. Everything worked all right and I 
could send them to iTunes. But later whenever I needed to update a file I had 
problems. I am aware the erros may happen when we "save" the changes on the 
same file. I was then always "saving as" another file as people suggest.

Do anybody else happens to have the same problems?
I would appreciate any help.

I am using Suble 0.24 and iTunes 11.1.3 on a Mac with OSX.9.1 Mavericks.

Best regards
Miro

(Sorry, for the delay. I haven't seen the message before...)
The problem is when I update the file (lets say I add a subtile), then I saved 
as and send the new file to itunes. Then it don't open when clicking on it 
(inside the itunes does not work, only out of it).

I wonder it this is because he file is a MPEG video inside a MOV container. 
Well, I know that we should convert it to mp4, but it takes hours and when one 
have a lot of movies it is just impracticable.

I appreciate if you have any thoughts.
Best.
Happy new year.
Miro

Subler can't edit mov files. So I wonder what you are actually doing.

Strange to hear that, since it actually does. 
I often bring .MOV files in subler, edit, and save them as MP4.
(unless you mean something completely different by "edit". By edit I mean: 
bring the film, subtitles, get metadata, art cover, eventually other sound 
track and combine all that in one file).

By edit I mean opening a file and saving the changes in the same file. If you 
open a mov you will need to save to a new file.
So if you had the mov in iTunes you will need to add the new mp4 file to iTunes 
too and remove the old mov.

Ok, that is exactly the case.
I bring the itunes file into sublet, change the content and save a NEW mp4 file.
And for any unknown reason this new file (with the updates) doesn't open 
normally on itunes anymore.
