My ipad VIDEOS app doesn't show the movie Names with IOS 7

Move them into home movies and titles will show up.

Go to "Get Info" Options and change "Media Kind" to Home Movies and the name will show.

I had the same problem. The only solution that I discovered was to reclassify every movie as a "Home Video". After I did that everything appeared as before. It is a real PIA (I have over 700 movies), but it was the only thing that worked for me, and believe me I tried every other sugesstion in this forum! It is sad that Apple has lost direction since Jobs died. The new crew should be working for Microsoft! Every software upgrade, including Maverick, is a complete disaster!

The current behaviour of the video app is a problem, since there are side effects and none of the supposed solutions work. Chapter markers are not working anymore for "home videos". Thus you have to move your files to "movies" section. But as a movie, you don't see the file name anymore.

Bill, I think you misunderstand what I was saying. I didn't say the TV Shows category doesn't appear in the Videos app, it does, but the grid listing of the shows in it do not include the title of the show from iTunes, unless it's a show purchased from the iTunes Store (and therefore has official artwork included that includes the show/series name).

The Videos app has always worked like this with TV shows, but Movies used to be different, they always showed their iTunes titles in the grid listing. But with the iOS 7 version of the Videos app now Movies also do not display the title info from iTunes when listed. Now only the Home Videos category displays the titles of the movies in the Videos app. That's what I was talking about.

Yes, a very annoying feature of the ios7.x update. However, I followed the suggestion of one of the other posts and found online artwork for all my movies. Now it looks awesome. Still, an obvious bug that needs to be fixed.

Yes, I found the same thing. The video name problem seems to be fixed in iOS 8!

While it's sad Apple failed to offer any additional views, such as a list view for example, and they also failed to fix the unbelievably long delay between when you select the remote iTunes library and when the grid of content appears (longest unmoving progress indicator ever!) at least they've finally fixed the video content name problem and for that I'm thankful.

I read somewhere else (sorry, lost the link) that in iTunes, you can also change the type from 'Movie' to 'Home Video' and it will then show up with text. I haven't tried it yet...

Unfortunately adding artwork only works if the movie is imported into iTunes, then placed on your portable device. If you keep large files, like movies, on an external hard drive in order to keep your computer's hard drive free, then the artwork modification tab is greyed out and non-functional. I drag most of my movies from the hard drive directly to my iPad to keep the space free. The other fix of modifying something under the Get Info option will provide the file name in the center of movie graphic displayed in the list. I just hope a fix is coming. Plenty of display space exists around the movie icons; this should never have been an issue.

Spotlight searches for my videos just fine

Go to settings in spotlight search to select which items you wish to include, check off videos.

Clearly, I was joking about amazing Spider-Man. The cover is Spider-Man in his Red costume and is always the first one I can see because it starts with the letter 'A'. I know the big ape face is planet of the apes and so on.

My music videos all have titles.

If your videos only have gray thumbnails, you can delete them and add again while connected to the computer.

That has done it for me before.

Ditto on the general frustration.

I use iFlicks to populate my movie and TV shows metadata and cover art so they look and act like they were purchased from iTunes.

Still *****, though, because streaming to my iPhone or iPad rarely works properly. Usually cuts out after a dew minutes and requires a reboot to start again.
