HTC Album help - HD2 General

Is there an alternative to HTC's Album - with similar large icons that can view photos and video.. I cannot seem to organise my files by name ( needed to view comics) or file size...also I don't seem to get preview thumbnail for WMV files.
Does someone know of any settings/reg.hack for the Album..or a good alternative, as Im not too keen on WM standard gallery app either.
Thanks.

I'm looking for the same thing, i searched over the registry, but i didn't found anything

I can't organize my pictures in the chronological order...

HTC photo album

Hello!
Does someone know how to manage pictures in the photo album, like rearrange pictures into folders?
I try to put folder in the My images folder, hoping they would appear into the photo album, but it won't. I would like to show someone, for exemple, only a couple of pictures, using this fabulous photo album finger friendly, but all my pictures appears...
Advices appreciate

Yep Same here.. moved all my pictures all in nice subfolders to the My Images folder.. but indeed.. the all appear without any folder structure.
Starting up takes a while now and finding the pictures is very hard.
Too bad.. i'm moving back to the old picture viewer.
Beeing possible to navigate through subfolders would be very helpfull.
Anyone know a 'hack' for this?
i'd like a hack for this as well, i synced my picture collection of over 300 images to my touch dual and i have to scan through all 300. would be nice to see folders
same prob here. i had to use tcpmp finally. what a pity for not able to use the touchflo features.
HTC photo album can only read from MyPictures folder in device and
DCIM folder in the storage (using digital camera format)
Thats not so I use it to view pictures from MY PICTURES on my SD card as I use the MY PICTURES on the phone for something else. May I offer a suggestion to the people wanting to use folders,why not just keep the individual folders outside of MY PICTURES till you want to look at it and than import that particular folder? That way theres nothing else but the pictures you want to show............HAVE A HAPPY NEW YEAR.
@sneakyp86
what do you mean by "import that particular folder"? a feature of HTCAlbum or just file movement? thanks
start --> programs --> pictures and videos
it's the only way i know if i wanna show some pictures inside a folder, sadly we cant configure it in touch cube

Htc Album with folder selector/folder ignore?

Hi everyone,
My name is Carlos and i'm from Barcelona, and this is my first post here.
I have a HTC Diamond, and i would like to know if there is a way to ignore folders into the HTC Album, because i'm very tired of browsing on dumb folders when i want to see my real photos.
I've read in other threads about putting folders the "Ignore" entry in the registry, but it seems it doesn't works... or maybe i do not know how to do it
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=404948
Is there a way to get rid of these folders that i do not want to see? Is there a new version of the HTC album with some kind of folder selector? Or any other third part software to do this?
I'm really desperate on this, because i love the HTC Album, but is really annoying to browse so long to find my photos amongst that crap...
Many thanks!
you can always select the folder you want to browse by clicking "album" (left softkey in htc album) and then select the good folder
Set the "hidden" file attribute on all jpegs in folders you want to ignore.
does the photo viewer pick every single jpeg on the phone by default or does it only show pictures from certain folders - i.e my pictures folder (wether internal storage or located elsewhere).
I got a load of photographs I dont want anyone to see (wink wink nudge nudge) just by picking up my phone and selecting photos.
Ive got to many to mark each one as hidden.
I remember I managed it to work before last hard reset, but now I forget how I did that... I'll look into it and let you guys know if if find anything out
That's just the problem, the album picks EVERY single jpg in the phone, and there's no option to avoid it.
Now I have about 200 folders when i click on Album list, so the album is not useful anymore, i do no not want to waste 3 minutes to browse down in the album list to find that pictures that i'm loking for...
The "hidden" option it doesn't works... too much folders to hide anyway...
The hidden option works absolutely fine on my Diamond. It's the files that have to be hidden not the folders.
if the photos are in internal storage, connect the Diamond to a pc as a USB drive and do a search for all jpeg files from the pc . Select all the search results (or just the ones that need hiding) and right-click to adjust all the properties at the same time.

WOOOOOW !!
Davey101, that was a pretty brilliant idea!!
I thought I should hide folders, not individual files. I follow your instructions to hide all the undesired jpg files. I've seen other folders in the Album with bmp, png ad gif files, and they were also hidden.
Maybe is not the best way to definitely solve this matter, but it seems there is no other one for the moment, and the result is that now i've just have what i want in the Album list. Cool
Many thanks for your help!
Folder Seleting
Also,Dont know if you already know but every photo album folder listed from the album button has the setting to select it has your favourite.Your favourite album will then be accessed from the "photos and videos link from tf3d.Saves searching through lots of folders!

How to Exclude Music Cover art from Picture Albums?

Hi,
I've tried looking and can't see an obvious way to do this, what I was hoping was that I could put an exception to not look in the My Music folder on my uSD card. I have loads of music with cover art and lots of folders of pictures. When navigating the Album view of the pictures manilla tab I get all the folders of my MP3s due to them all having the folder.jpg within, it's really cluttered and i'd just like to have folders with photos in.
Hope that's clear and that someone could point me in the right direction to fix it.
In anticipation.
Dan.
I am using the Blackstone, But if you use a app like Tag and Rename to add the album art directly to the mp3. There is no need to have the picture on your phone. Works for me.
Tag and rename Here: http://download.cnet.com/Tag-Rename/3000-2141_4-10041852.html
Yep, embedded art is the way to go.
I use mp3tag.
Hmmmmn, interesting I hadn't thought of attacking it from that angle. Thanks guys I'll give tag and rename a go.
Cheers.

touchflo 3D Music & Photos

If i disable the Music and Photo Album tab, is it possible to access it from somewhere else ?
For example create a shortcut in the programs tab ?
Just use the file explorer, or try an alternate photo view. There should also be a link to add in album or photos as well
could you please suggest a suitable replacement to the two ?
personally i don't like WM player and the windows album is rather ugly.
I know a lot of people use CorePlayer for music, though I am not one of them. Music tab is good enough for me.
As for photos, I rarely look at photos on my device, so I can't really help you out there...
thanks, i'll take a look at core player
Try Microfi's Nitrogen for Music Playback.....though I'm not sure whether it works on Topaz...I haven't tried....an alha package I tried failed to install, so I left it altogether.... but give it a try...

Video thumbnails

Is it possible to alter the thumbnails of the videos on the Tab?
my 3 year old uses it a lot (so obviously he can't read) and I have quite a few videos on there, I would like to alter the thumbnails to another part of the video like I do with the ones for his iPod (I'm trying to ween him of the iPod and onto the Tab, he already uses my Desire more than the iPod)
can anyone help with this?
for example he has 9 videos on there that are spin-offs to the Disney film "Cars" and they all start the same so the thumbnails for them all are the same and there's no filename their either (he can recognise numbers but there's nothing for him to see)
Any help with where the thumbnails are stored and how I can change them?
thanks
I have my each video stored in a folder with a thumbnail image of the movie poster. When I go to my gallery it shows the thumbnails

What do you name the thumbnails?
Does it show them in the "video" app?
