How to enter summary information in video files (.mp4, .avi)

I use Win7 Media Center video to view my videos on my HTPC connected to my TV.  But how do I enter information Synopsis in my files so that this info appears during playback of videos from video library Media Center?  For most of the video files, the files are .mp4 and .avi.

Is there a direct way to do it without using third-party tools, or sort each file into separate etc folders. The files are located in different places on my hard drive and sorted according to my convenience.  Thank you.

Hi a Win7 user,.

In Windows Media Center theoptions are limited to add metadata synopsis in home videos, however, there are third-party applications available to do the job. You can search your favorite search engine and download third-party software to add metadata synopsis in videos.

Note: The use of third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

Hope this information is useful.

  • How can HDR-AS100V - I associate video files with GPS without PlayMemories House data?

    Video files are saved to:

    and newspapers GPS is found in:

    \PRIVATE\SONY\GPS

    • How can I connect without using PlayMemories House?
    • Is there an API for databases to \AVF_INFO?
    • How PlayMemories calculates the speed without having the GPS-log information? and also how correct without going through the Altitude in the GPS-log? Does this mean that the Altitude is stored somewhere else?

    Yes, it seems fair to extract still images from the camera will keep the GPS coordinates. This assumes, of course, Traore, the GPS is locked on the satellite. It may take a few seconds to several minutes to reach the lock, so the first photos that you take may not be labeled. I assume that you run an interval picture-taking.

    I and others have posted here and in other forums that the GPS coordinates are not very accurate. They may, or may not, be specific to a single shot, but you can't rely on the accuracy of the coordinates. This also applies to the video shot with the AS-100v and AS - 30V. Results on the ground of myself (USA) and a user in Germany confirm that GPS coordinates are not nearly as accurate as it should.

    Here's a comparison side by side (images of Google Earth with Garmin vs AS-30V tracks), and it is an analysis using time tag data (again, Garmin vs Sony AS-30V).

  • How to convert video files in avi files 3pg need a kind of codecs etc.

    I am trying to transfer my video files 3pg by converting avi files to copy on this new player mp3; in the instruction book, which says that if there is no problem converting them, iwould need to download additional codecs to take in charge all the multimedia files. How do you do that?

    Hello

    What operating system is installed on the computer?

    You don't need codecs for the avi files to convert to be played on the player, if you need to read the files on the computer, then you may need to download codecs from the internet.

    You can use your favorite search engine to download codecs and use.

    The audio or video file can be converted to a file type that your device can play and then copied to your device. If it cannot be converted (or you don't want it to be converted), you can always choose to copy the file on the device, but you will not be able to play.

    ==================================
    Conversion to the. Before importing WMV format
    in Movie Maker would be the best bet.

    There are to many converters available on the net...
    some for free, some retailers, some better than others...
    the following freeware is an example that
    works fine for me.

    (FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)
    Restore point before installing software or updates)

    Freemake Free Video Converter (freeware)
    http://www.Freemake.com/free_video_converter/
    (Windows XP / Vista / 7 / 8)
    (* Choose custom installation and carefully)
    read * all * the installation screens... There may be some
    items you want to unmark *)

    If a green install button appears when you launch
    Freemake... you can ignore it and it should go away
    When you import files.

    To download the full version instead of use the
    Web Installer, see the following:

    Freemake Apps - off-line version
    http://www.Freemake.com/offline/offline_all/
    (If you want to install freeware Freemake
    on your PC without Internet connection,.
    Download these files)

    When you have installed Freemake... Open Freemake
    and drag and drop your video files on the main screen.

    Or... Click left on the video button and navigate to the
    your video files are saved in the folder.

    Select (highlight) the files you want to import into
    Freemake and left, click on the button 'open '.

    When video files are imported into Freemake,
    On the left, click the WMV icon at the bottom of the screen.

    The 'WMV output settings' screen opens.

    Choose a folder ' save in ', so you can find the

    to convert.

  • How to read a corrupted recovery video file?

    Hi · You receive an error message or error code when you play the file?

    · You play the file with which application?

    · The file on the hard drive or on CD/DVD?

    In response to Samhrutha G post August 27, 2011

    Yes, I receive an error message when I try to play applications tell me that they do not recognize the format can not play and I get to play with trakaxpc, but the only thing that appears is some audio which is long 37 seconds with no sound when I go to properties it shows that long 7 min video , but after this () he says that the video is long only 37 seconds when I try to reformat the drive or do anything else with it, it says this application has a problem and needs to close

    I try to read the file with the latest version of windows media player, last version of real player, trakaxpc, nero vision Express, quick time player, nero show time, windows movie maker and divx

    I accidentally deleted the original so I downloaded recuva and I can't find the original but on the original, there was more things I used trakaxpc to cut down for the wedding and saved this is the only file I can find is the right length and edited the day and after all the numbers in the edd file name are there and when I saved the file I recorded it by virtue of the so somewhere under all the extra stuff, that the name of the file is still there so in answer to your question, the original marriage was under c drive my documents and files loaded down of recuva on my desk, I hope this helps

    Original title: received no message back of samatha do not know if it was my response to answers so please give this to her thanks

    Any use of the computer with the file on the risk of damaged files deleted, in splitting them, crushing the etc.
    So, if you have downloaded recuva app on your computer it could have destroyed the file you want to save.
    yping these meessages could have destroyed.
    For later use, do not use a pc if you want to try to recover something, you must use a secondary drive to install the app and run that.

    It looks that your file is corrupted, so if you can't find another to try to recover, I am afraid you are lost.
