I don't think its the firmware issue, I got this problem even when on prev fw.
Have you tried rebooting your phone?
Clean cache?
Try it and report back
Did everything...reset the phone to factory settings and repaired it using Sony Update Service also but it's still the same. This problem came after cleaning album cache itself.

^Just browse to the folder where those videos are located and check if it has a ".nomedia" file.
If it exists, then delete the file, clear album cache and reboot. Hopefully that should fix it!
No there is no such file. Video thumbnails are getting generated in movie app and all other players and file explorers except the album app.

^Weird.
What happens when you click on those blank ones?
Anyways, try this:
Open the DCIM folder in any File Manager app, under that delete the ".thumbnails" folder.
Now open Settings -> Apps -> All -> Album -> Clear Data/Cache -> Go Back -> Scroll down until you find "Media Storage" -> Once again Clear Data/Cache -> REBOOT.
Try it and let me know how it goes..
Video plays normally on clicking the play button. There are no .thumbnail file or folder in DCIM folder. Tried cleaning cache and data from both album and media storage but no use.
Video thumbnails are coming fine in movie app.

Try install this Album,install as normal apk or push it to system/app and set permissions to RW-R-R and reboot your phone.
How to push it to system app and set the permissions?
On normal install the app goes on reboot.

You need to root your phone to push it to system/app...

I mean to say that on installing the app normally it uninstalls automatically on reboot and comes back to stock app.

same problem here , it's just happen after the latest update
I have this problem, too.
Yes mine also happened after the update. Is your problem fixed now? Did you try cleaning your album cache or something else?

I had the same problem a while ago. When I was adding a .nomedia file. To hide whatsapp images. Then all my pictures displayed as video.. Deleting .nomedia file, reboot etc did not work. What did work, was a full reset :/ But that fixed my problem in my case

I installed MX Video Player 1.6e and was going to upgrade it to the latest version of the software. So I uninstall MX Video Player and when I tried to install the latest version of MX Video Player, it say "Out of Space".
I did some reading up and there is a few post about deleting the odex file under Android/App/Data. However, there isn't any odex file in that folder. I even tried deleting the who Data folder and it does not solve the issue. Anyone has any idea where I can go to clean up the install file for MX Video Player?
Just where is the Android/App/Data folder ? I can't seem to find it.
Try deleting the app via Titanium Backup and also check if you are really out of storage space ?
The full path is mnt/sdcard/android/app/data.
The app has already been deleted so it is not showing up in Titanium Backup. I have double check the storage space and I got a good 1.1gb of space left.
So not really sure what to do from this point. I know that I can install the latest version of MX Video Player if I do a full wipe but I rather avoid doing this if I can.
Same problem here. Just can't install titanium backup and poweramp..

Don't do it! Stick to 1.6e as later versions have the DTS codec removed which sucks donkey balls.

You can also just remove the .odex file for the app you patched. It will be in /data/app/nameofapk.odex

Try the app "SD Maid"
It cleans up the system and leftover files. Kind of CCleaner for Android.

SD maid doesn't help. Cleaned up my entire phone and still couldn't install Poweramp and titanium backup.
Wiped my data and performed a clean install of PA last night, and managed to install and update TB but Poweramp still doesn't install.
OP has the same problem as me, just different apps

Well, I'm kind of offtopic but actually I solved this problem just by uninstalling the codec app.

Having installed a custom ROM (carbon) as much as i love the rom it doesn't come with Xperia Link.
As i have an Xperia tablet Z it would be really useful.
I have tried backing up the APK with Astro but when i tried to install it on my new rom it just refuses to install saying "App not installed" Just to make it clear it's the Xperia Link phone lient i want. Any suggestions?
Try to install it from playstore.

Put the apk file that you've backup in system/app and set permissions rw-r-r and reboot.

You should not install,it will show up with the applications or in the settings(i don't remember)if it's working.

No still no joy. Cuiously though the astro backed up apk is called "com.sonymobile.xperialink-1.apk"
But when i looked in System/Apps on the stock rom no such app exists only "SomcXperiaLink.apk" When i try to copy, move or archive that file it fails even after a force stop.
Hope this helps thanks for your help so far.

Using explorer I go to the file, tap on it package installer comes up, tap install, installer opens with app details and permissions, try to tap install but the button doesn't highlight it's been pressed, nothing happens. Cancel button works fine

Could be an application you already installed is doing this.
Remove the apps one by one and try again.

Clear data for the Media Storage app:

Scroll down to Media Storage

Try and install your apk.
If it still doesn't work, do the same for Package Installer.

Ok cleared data for Media Storage, no effect.
Cleared data for Package Installer, no effect.
Cleared data for a bunch of other apps with no effect other than losing all my ringtones and notification sounds
Unless I can figure out whats stopping the installation of apps from apk's i just might have to factory reset and start again to see which app it is thats causing these issues.
Thanks all for your help so far!
Ok guys thank you to everyone for helping me. I feel so freakin stupid right now... and rightly so.
I realised that "LUX" auto brightness app was the issue. head slap. Didnt even think of it as a screen related app. Another head slap.
I had stupidly deleted all the apps that trigger sleep mode in Lux's settings ... added package installer back to the list and everything works fine now.
Again a huge thank you to you all for helping and a big sorry for my stupidity.

good afternoon friends. I would like some information please . When I turn on every time the phone appears the message "android is being upgraded" .... is fast and starts normal, but it started appearing after I installed an app. Already uninstalled it all and it is still showing up. a problem or normal? thanks for attention and sorry my Inglês
This message appears almost every time you reboot in my experience. It's just the Dalvik-cache rebuilding and updating itself.

It's normal behaviour, no need to worry
Sent from my LT30p using xda app-developers app
It is normal for it to happen, but not on every reboot...I suggest clearing caches, wiping dalvik, reflashing your Rom and rebooting.
It will build the dalvik cache again, but then should not do it until you update, delete or install a system app
