Ipad2 videos question....

tupac_healy

Hi,

Just wondering, when you open up the videos on your ipad 2, all of the videos are shown & it seems very cluttered


Is there a way (or is it due in an update) for genre's to be added much like the music is set up, it would help a lot

Something like this might work maybe???

Ok so I managed to tag my music videos as music videos and now they have their own tab on my iPad

I would also like to do this for home movies but there is no option for home moves in the drop down list on iTunes.....


Can anyone advise me further????

Wonder how that will appear on the iPad, worth a shot. Thanks

I tried the above and it did not work, the playlists only appear in the music app

OK
What about renaming the artist info to say your family name. That way theyd at least all be grouped together.
You can do this by highlighting all the videos and right clicking and hit "get info"

I get what your saying, that will help but it's not an ideal solution..... Seems like such a simple thing for apple to fix, anyone know if this is in the pipeline????

I have done the above and it is the best I can do at the moment. I'm kind of surprised at the lack of responses regards this, I would see this as a huge flaw with iTunes/iPad......

Having ALL of your videos in the one place, unorganized seems very very lacklustre work I must say.


We should at least be able to look at our lists by genre...:mad:

Ok so apparantly there is an app called avplayerhd that will sort all videos by folder and it plays most file types.....

Pity I don't have a credit card anymore :rolleyes:
