guys
i connected my android to my computer but in all directories like data, dcim, download, etc i don't see my camera pictures
I guess camera pictures are by default stored on the sd card and when i delete a video, i see space released in the sd card menu.
Thanks
Depends on what app yuo're using (which drives me INSANE! I wish devs would follow some sort of standard when saving to the sdcard)
Camera App saves to /dcim/camera
Video App save to /dcim/video
SnapPhoto saves to /dcim/camera/date
QuickCamera saves to /quick
That's all I've used.
Is there an app that can directly save videos to your computer instead of an SD card, the videos never work on the SD card, and it would be really nice to save videos so we can make them limitless in length.
Hi
In the camera options I can change the save location, either device or sd card
The problem is that when you have the save location set to SD CARD the video recording option has a MB cap.
Is there a way to set photos to save to the SD card and videos to the device?
Thanks!

AFAIK No with stock camera. You can use different apps for photo/video
Hello everyone. My gallery has disappeared from my external sdcard. I have tried different recoveries on my phone but not yet computer. Everything else on external sd card is there. This includes music and external movies stored on this card as opposed to internal storage. Please help as these pics and videos are important. I thought I had a backup in place but apparently not.
I have a Nexus 5 and just looking at my storage, it's:
Apps + Data - 5.62Gb
Pictures, Videos - 9.79Gb
Audio - 3Gb
Downloads - 1.62Gb
Misc - 5.32Gb (mainly whatsapp and Titanium Backup)
My question is, what are you going to put on your external SD. My music will go straight there, as will my TitaniumBackup files, but I'm curious about pictures. If i store them on the external SD card, will they take ages to render in a gallery app? I'm getting a Samsung Pro+ sd card fyi
It still seems like there'll be a storage problem on the internal memory if I leave pics there
Pictures, Videos, Music, offline mapping data (for Locus Pro - I wish Garmin Viago would put it there too), reference documents (word, pdf, et al), offline backups for pretty much anything that can backup it's data/settings, other misc data.
Hopefully the games I end up getting will put their data there, instead of on internal memory (or at least let me move it).
I have a Lexar 1000x and have no issues with Gallery, etc. I'm prety sure that once a directory/image has been hit that a cached thumbnail is stored internally - regardless of where the actual images and videos reside.
So when you actually click on a pic that's stored on your sd card it shows instantly without any slow rendering?
Also, do the gallery and music apps show both pics/music stored on the sd card and internal memory?

Define "instantly" ... on the order of 1 second, yes. Absolutely identical to an image stored on internal memory? Doubt it. Hard to believe that would be possible when comparing a storage device reading 300Mb/s vs one reading 65Mb/s. The latter is only 20% the capability of the former after all.
Gallery and Music are both pleasantly and smoothly interactive. Again, are they as absolutely as fast as with media stored only on internal memory? Doubt it. Fast enough that I never think about it? Yes.
Would I want a SQL database image stored on the SD card? Probably not, but it would depend upon the usage pattern. If it was 95% read-only it may still be fast enough though.
Thanks! As I'm coming from the N5, I've got all these considerations! I guess I'm used to a certain speed on my N5 when viewing pics in the gallery, and want to know if it's going to be a noticeable loss in performance if I store stuff on the SD Card instead.
I store my music cached from Google Play Music, about 10 GB, and my pictures. I have always stored pictures on the external sd and I have not noticed any difference between this phone and my previous LG G3 or Galaxy S3 in terms of how fast the gallery loads. There is no noticeable lag. I also back up my Tasker profiles, Zooper Widget files, and other settings to the external sd.
