HTC Desire :: Phone Created A Thumbnail Of Video In Photo Album
May 1, 2010
I just recorded a video clip which had a strange effect. When in photo albums, instead of a thumbnail of the video in question, the phone created a thumbnail of a video I have recorded previously and then deleted. Does anyone know how to make the phone recreate all thumbnails for the media files? I am leaning towards deleting all the files in /sdcard/DCIM/.thumbnails/ but not sure this is the way to do it?

Is there any way to select which picture will show as the photo album thumbnail? When I open the photo album the picture that shows as the thumbnail is hard to see and I would like to have another pic as the album thumbnail/icon.I have tried erasing all of the photos, clearing the cache and reloading the photos in various orders but no matter what I try the same photo shows as the thumbnail. Is there any way to change it?

Is it possible to create an album which is password protected? To which photos go automatically instead of to the 'all photos bit'?I'm sure that's impossible.. you'd have to have some setting in the camera that selected which folder it went into.but is it possible to have a password protected folder in the photo gallery to which you can easily move (how?) pictures from the normal camera folder?I'm sure you can think of uses for such a feature - in my case it's for photos to measure my fitness/muscleness (I ignore scales) - and I have friends who happily browse my phone (I don't mind except for this - I have to remember to upload the pictures then delete them). (They all know the swipe password thing, because it's pretty easy to accidentally watch/memorise.)

I just got an HTC desire and I am on my 6th day of playing with it. At first I thought it was a big step up from my previous phone (that had real buttons...and lots of them) however after I started copying my music to the tiny 4Gb SD card I realised that my photos app was showing all the album art work. This was actually quite annoying and it has taken me some hours to find a solution. If anyone is having the same problem they will realise how annoying this is, so I have documented below how to solve it.The problem seems to come from two sources:
1. The Desire (and I guess other android devices) scan the entire SD card for media. Sure enough the scan would return some jpg images located in my MP3 folder (the album art work). Android seems to be limited here and you cannot create an exclsuion folder that doesnt effect both the music app and the photo app (so, this rules out the .nomedia folder)
2. Tagging the MP3's correctly using ID3 tags should appearntly solve this problem. Although you have to be careful here as I have found that not all media players tag the MP3's in the same way. Windows Media player and Tag Runner both tag the MP3 so it appears correct (no separate jpg image is created) however, they still appear in the photo's app.
The only application I have found that works is mediamonkey. Tagging all my MP3's using media monkey stops the album art work appearing in the photo's app which has made my trowling through for my pictures much more graceful.

I have retrieved some cover art for an album (I have the id and a Bitmap) and now I want to set it into the MediaStore. I tried a bunch of stuff:
private static final Uri ARTWORK_URI = Uri.parse("content://media/external/audio/albumart");
public static void writeArtwork(Context context, Bitmap bmp, int albumId) {
ContentResolver res = context.getContentResolver();
Uri uri = ContentUris.withAppendedId(ARTWORK_URI, albumId);
LogUtil.i(TAG, "uri= " + uri);
if (uri != null) {
ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
bmp.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 50, baos);.............

I tried to create a video thumbnail as described here. I also read the reference here. In my app I first let the user choose a video with: startActivityForResult(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT).setType("video/*"), ACTIVITY_PICKVIDEO);
Then I determine the video ID with: fileID = Integer.parseInt(contentUri.getLastPathSegment());
So, the video content://media/external/video/media/5 would have the ID 5...............

I know this has to be trivial but I just don't find the right resource, I guess.
So all I want to do is retrieving a thumbnail for a video. All I have is the absolute path to the file on the sdcard as a String. So please point me into the right direction.

Hi,
Is there any api on android which generates a Thumbnail image from an inputstream which is a video file?
Thank you.

How do you create a new photo album? I do not see it in the settings when I open my photo's app.I don't like how all my pictures are going into "Camera photos" and would like to separate certain pictures out.

One thing I thought was cool about the nexus one was its photo app.It allows you to sync up with Picasa. I was trying to do this with the sense photo app but it looks like it only allows this with facebook and flikr. Anyone know if it is possible to do with sense?Or a good photo album app replacement?

It seems pointless to have something called "Albums" if you have no control over it I want to create an album, and move pictures to it.

Has anybody else noticed this? I have to view the picture, zoom all the way in on it, wait a second for it to focus then zoom out and THEN the picture will be crystal clear. Is this a bug or?

I have a Nexus 7 2 and I am searching for a compatible Photo Album app. I want to show my clients some of my products' pictures. I want the app to have the ability to tag photos and search for photos with specific tags. Also I want to be able to organize my photos in folders.

I just purchased the Launcher Pro as this blows the old HTC Sense out of the water.However, I used to have a Photo Album widget when using the original HTC Sense UI.In this widget you could simply swipe your finger up or down on the widget and it would scroll to the next photo.Now that I'm running Launcher Pro I cannot find the Photo Album widget anywhere. I tried out the Photo Gallery widget but it doesn't have the swipe feature.
Anybody know if there is a way that I can get the old Photo Album widget to work on this or a possible alternative?

I have over 200 photos on my sd card in a separate folder that I created and pointed my HTC widget to. The problem I have is organizing these photos and controlling the order in which they appear. I cannot figure out how to do that.

I love the way the Hero's photo album and contact app integrates with Facebook / Flikr. From the album you can go right into you friend's pictures and thumb through them, and from the contacts you can see birthdays, Facebook profile pics, status updates, etc. Is there anything like this available in the market?

I have an minor issue when taking a photo. I have a button that invokes the camera, successfully takes a photo, and returns to my entry form. My only problem is the database leak that occurs when pressing the button to call the camera.
My code looks a little something like this.
code:..........
I run :
code:..........
In the onCreate of the Activity or Class that I am calling the camera in. I have not coded in mDbHelper.close(); anywhere not sure if i should when or where. I think i would rather just leave it open while capturing one image.
Logcat:
code:............
Everything seems to be working fine, but i would defiantly like to avoid any issues amongst the many android devices out there.

After the 2.1 OTA a lot of random photos were thrown in my photo album under separate files, I think one is named something like keyboard...and another one called icons maybe. They are just screen shots of the swype keyboard. I tried to delete them after I dl'd the Nexus Gallery (which is awesome btw thank you Androzoid) but they just came back. Has anyone else had this happen? I haven't tried to delete them yet straight from the SD card to see if that works. Is it okay to delete these or do they serve some purpose?
