Ok so all going well apart from the Album app once i have opened used it for a while and closed when i try to view a pic it says (OK) in a dialog box and when i try to view a video it says (cannot play video) all stored to SD Card when trying with pics?
/vids to internal results are the same.
Any ideas ?
AW: [Q] Bug with gallery/Album ?
1. Dots, commas, punctuation marks in general, they exist. Use them.
2. Probably incompatible video files. Check what files and codecs the Z supports and convert the incompatible files if needed.

Ive asked around and searched pretty throughly, and it doesn't look like anyone has figured this out. So as a a last resort I thought Id ask here. I want to be able to access videos from my sd card on htc album. I know how to do it for videos on my internal memory, but no one seems to know how to configure the directory to access the sd card.
In a related matter Id also like to put the video.lnk on the today screen or start menu, any idea how to do that? (I'll admit I haven't searched that yet so go easy on me if someone has already posted that question a year ago)
Thanks!
Let me get this right. You want to be able to go into the album and click video to show videos on your SD card?
Mine does that, I just have the camera set to save all those things to the SD card.
In the Polaris Upgrading subforum, there is a thread called Polaris Tweaks & tips.
It is described in there how to change it to your SD
(if the solution from the post above mine, doesnt work )
Hey I just discovered that if I want to view my videos in HTC Album I just have to select "videorecording mode" when I have launched the camera and then the play button in the left downside corner to activate HTC Album and voila
If I then want to see my pictures again I just select "camera mode" again and the the "play" button to activate the HTC Album.
This I probably what is mentioned in the previus posts but now I just had to write it too in this thread...

Awesomeness.
Ok, maybe i found the wrong thing, but the posts in the polaris forum did not have what i was looking for. What i've got rite now is an htc album version w/o the directory. I don't want the directory. I have mediahub set up so that cube's video tab opens to htc album video, but of course only the videos on my phone (not my sd card). What i'd like to do is open that htc album (videos) and have it open all video files, or at least all video files on my sd card.
I know it sounds like i'm asking a lot but this is just basic feature (customization) that htc album should have.
Thanks.
I am looking for this too. Anyone found a way for this to happen. My pictures show up fine in camera album from my storage card or internal storage but my videos do not show up in video album unless they are in internal storage only.
Recently I tried to stop the gallery from scanning the media files (pictures) on storage with .nomedia.txt. It didnt seem to work so I ignored it. After a few days I found that my videos were "duplicated" At first there were two and then more and more. Everytime I scan media, more pops up. It seems these are just thumbnails that link to no where. As I have tried to play the files and it says file was not found. I have removed the .nomedia.txt file does not seem to resolve the problem.
Im on GT-i9000 Firmware 2.2 JPM baseband.
Just wanted you to know, you're not alone.
I'm on 2.2 JPD and have the exact same issue. Thumbnails for videos are massively duplicated in Gallery.
Don't really know why this happens, but I don't really use Gallery in the first place so it doesn't bother me as much since all my vids are in 1 directory and pictures in another.
No problems with picture thumbnails, just vid thumbnails.
The file you are making shouldn't be .nomedia.txt , Its .nomedia (without the .txt) Also I recommend you use Mvideoplayer to view videos as its awsome. If you are gutsy you could delete the /mnt/sd_card/.gallerycache folder.
To make that .nomedia file just make a blank file using notepad but when saving select ALL FILES in the option that says "Save file as"

Yup just video thumbnails. Anyways I decided to delete all the extra thumbnails and did a few reboot n rescan. the issue seems to have resolved itself how strange !
check this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=831042&page=6
it solved my multiple thumbnails.
I fixed mine by formatting my SD card and putting everything back in afterwards. and I deleted the thumbnail folder in DCIM.
Hello,
I have just recorder a movie with my wp8 device and cannot find where to view it on the phone.
Do not tell me I cannot do this...
Where is it? In photos/camera roll is not, in music&videos is not. Where is it??
P.S just found out that on a longer video, the SD card stores the video but it appears as used space on Others, and it's missing from Photos/camera roll
Use the Music+Videos hub.
RE:
Got it solved. the problem was my SDcard, the movies weren't saved. I have formatted my microsd card in the phone and now it works.
Just got the phone and I'm digging my way through it but I've found that for some reason my music and video files are not being seen by the phone.
Photographs are fine, but I see no obvious way of forcing the walkman and movie apps to scan my SD card. The files are still there and I've tried unmounting/remounting but I'm not having much luck.
Has anyone else experienced this? I tried to search but only saw reports of skipping tracks etc.
Edit: I've come from a Galaxy S3 and the card was formatted on that phone - could it be a slightly different file organisation system? I hope I don't have to reformat!
I understood the media server will scan for files if you:
- Add new media to the SD card and unplug USB cable.
- When you power cycle the device.
If all this fails maybe try an app like "Rescan Media":
http://www.androlib.com/android.application.com-addz-mediascanner-jtDAw.aspx
Rescan Media is a simple app will rescan your mobile phone for new files that usually happens on a system re-boot.
It only calls the android media scanner.
Kind regards, Stefan.
You can also delete android folder from the sd and reboot.

Thanks guys. Oddly enough I'm now seeing my files. It seemed to just happen! When I rebooted and used usb, nothing happened. Then out of the blue it just does it, unexplainable! That app looks handy though
can't find the media
Same to me. I can find any mp3 or mp4 file that i have in sdcard in my walkman, Still can see it through file explore. How can I fix it? Tried media scan app, flash new app, wipe anything... but still can't see anything in the damn screen.
Please help me! You can send email for me: [email protected]
When I select Timeshift-Video from the camera options and record a video (no matter to internal or class 10 SD card), it indeed does record a video and the small thumbnail also shows "120f" after saving. But then playback is just like any other regular video, that is, in real time. Hence, no timeshift/slow-motion anywhere. Further, I don't get this -well, how to describe it- settings circle on the screen for playback adjustments I used to see on the Z2.
Phone is stock (BL locked) with FW .98 DE. Anyone experienced the same issue or is that just me? Any hints appreciated.
I have the same problem. I tried internal memory an sd card, its just not working.
Strange...
Try to open the video and then push the edit button.
Normmaly the video editor opens and you can choose the sequence and the speed of the video...

Exactly, that's how it should normally work, but it doesn't on my phone. Also, there's no edit button anywhere, only on photos.
What FW version/build do you have installed? Maybe that's something that got fixed in .105 (I'm on .98)?
23.0.A.2.93 is my version. Same problem mine does not have a edit button. Only star and trashcan buttons are available.
Finally figured it out...
Check for App "Movie Creator" to actually appear twice under Settings-> Apps -> All.
Movie Creator 1.3.A.0.11
Movie Creator 2.0.A.0.10
Now, since I did not want these great automatic movies to get created thereby filling up (if only a bit) my precious storage, I disabled both of them.
That was one too much
(Re-)Enabling the one with the older version alone (Movie Creator 1.3.A.0.11) brings back full functionality of Timeshift Videos.
However, why Sony has tied these together (Timeshift Videos and Movie Creator) is beyond me...
Excellent!
THANKTHANKTHANK THANK I LOVE !! fix it
for me the Movie Creator wont show the 120 fps video and when i am in the video i cant press "edit". it wont show at all
so is there another way to watch those 120 fps in slowmo? on pc? on the device with another videoplayer perhaps?

how did you get these two apps? i have the app installed from Sony and i can start it, but it doesn't apear in the list settings > apps > all i have none of the above.
i tried removing the app and reinstalling it from the playstore, but still no timeshift editting.
how did you do that?
Are you on Android 5? Not sure whether they got renamed since 4.4.4 (which I'm still using). Check System Apps with say Es File Explorer, too.

go in to your 120f video like your going to play it. but instead of tepping the middle of the screen to play it tap underneath it. youll see what looks like a
press that icon. then you can adjust what speed and trim the video
