When I open the HTC gallery app and select "Camera shots" it often only displays the first 15 photos and videos from the folder on the SD card (\SDCARD\DCIM\100Media). It does occasionally show more, but not always. Has anyone else noticed this behaviour? I'm sure of the content of this folder because when I use Astro file manager to open the folder I see all of the photos.
???
Doesn't happen on my desire z

Have just discovered that it's a common problem. I've now downloaded QuickPic and all is well....
Yes, I have that.
I have been moving the photos I take into a separate directory under DCIM, so as to separate them from the HTC example images, and this seems to force the gallery to rebuild its list of photos.
hopefully it'll be fixed in gingerbread update
I use Rescan Media which forces to rebuild the media db.
This problem is not related just to pictures, but to mp3's as well although not that common because usually you are not adding/removing music as much as pictures.
I have that same problem. Now using QuickPic as well and it works perfectly. That said, it shouldn't be necessary to install a 3rd party gallery just to make sure you see all photos.
One minor glitch with QP, though, is it will not allow me to upload videos to YouTube. For that I have to use the HTC gallery app.
I really hope the issue gets fixed with the Gingerbread update.

I was starting to think I was going mad and hadn't actually taken some pictures. Just installed rescan media and the missing pictures have reappeared.
Thanks.

Go to the directory and delete the .thumbnails directory, that will rebuild the cache. It works for me.

Yeah but rescan media is quicker.

Can you direct me to it? Its not showing up in the Market.
Something is very wrong.
To refresh for those that do not know...
Yesterday, I took about 100+ important pix. None of them saved. Only two videos were saved.
When I brought everything from the Gallery to the comp, there are 340 files totalling 2.31gb.
The past hour, I was instructed to try to duplicate the situation, so I took a bunch of pix and videos. Reached over 340 files. After doing a long video, I checked the Gallery to discover all the pix disappeared leaving only the videos.
So I hooked it up to the comp and browse through...they are all gone.
Something is very wrong here and this needs to be pinpointed and fixed.
i a having this same problem on a fresh wipe and install of rc1. but before i had rc1 this did not happen so i do not know what i did different this time around.
I found this problem last night, im on stock rom. Turned my phone off last night and this morning all files were visible. So, try rebooting phone and see mate.

Its easier to use the Rescan Media app than restarting the phone. But thunderokc says that his pics are actually physically missing from the sd card, now that is a huge problem. In the usual case only the cache is corrupted, so its enough to rebuild it. But even after that, after some time they can disappear again for no reason..

how about the standard gallery? Also check your SD card, see if those pics are really there (check it on a pc). I am not sure, but a wipe doesn't remove also all stuff from the sd card?
i have the same problem... Gallery and mp3 appear and disappear randomly.. Quickpic solves the gallery problem , but for me is impossible set a mp3 file as ringtone.
If i use rescan media the phone sees the mp3 and i can use it , but after a while the files disappear from sd (they are still in sd but the phone doesn't see them) and is set the default ringtones.
Try copying some more mp3 files. Usually "just" some of the latest media disappears. Yes this very stupid&annoying and as far as I know its still not fixed in the latest update...

try playerpro from the market, works really well. I dont have your problem, as I tend to get a little OCD about my music and they way the files are named
Hello guys I have a bit of an issue with the Google play music widget, it doesn't display album art from albums I've imported manually but does with music present installed on the phone. If i open one of the albums from the widget, the app displays the imported album artwork fine. What am I missing?

Happens to me to, I guess its a bug of the nexus 4 or jellybean
MIne does this too. I displays some but not others. It's wierd.
I have the same problem on my Nexus 10. Seems like the My Library widget only displays the artwork for media stored in the Play cloud not on the device itself. Google should fix this.
@HankStorm Yeah I had just copied my albums to the PC, then uploaded to cloud, I can now see album artwork from the widget and download the albums from there to my phone if I so wish. Only took about an hour to do ha!

It's a real shame Google won't let you upload straight from your device as I download a lot of mix tapes straight to my phone.

Kill any other media players you have running. That worked for me. Widget was back in an instant.

Thanks for the advice, the widget worked fine to start off with. It just didn't show artwork for albums imported manually and stored locally on the phone. It's sorted now though.

Download apps like album art grabber which will get u all the art work .
after that just clear the cache and force close the play music app and reopen it all the albums will appear

As I said in original post. The albums already contain artwork. The app displays it just fine, the widget doesn't. It did fix by uploading the albums to cloud. But I will try the fc as you suggested next time and see what happens. Thanks

Same boat. I thought about using the Play Music system with the cloud and all to see what happens... but man, what a bunch of extra stuff to do.
Call me old school but I've never used any kind of 'manager' I just copy and paste, how does it get more simple?
I'm having this issue and it's very annoying. album art grabber doesn't work it thinks most of my albums already have art and the ones that have zero it downloads something but it never appears even after clearing the app cache and force closing.

same problem here on nexus 5 ,play music app shows art work fine the widget doesn't, seems a bit long winded to have to upload it elsewhere and then back to phone ,surely the widget gets its info from the app?

Seeing as it's only a problem with the widget I abandoned it. Not worth uploading everything and then having to distinguish between On Device or not, potentially streaming files that are available locally.
Hi, how to force scan videos on the sd card to see them on the stock video player ???
Sent from my GT-N8010 using XDA Premium HD app
when use use an app for the first time it will ask you what to use to open the file. i use quickpic to scroll through videos and then when you click to view it asks what you want to view the video. click 'Video Player' and then click 'always' and that will be the default. if you already set a default you can change it by going to settings-->application manager then click the software you use to view the files and then click 'clear defaults'.

if it has not scanned when you pull the usb cable you can force it to scan by unmounting from settings then take it out and put it back in. this forces a scan.
I have some albums on my eternal sd and it's not showing them in the player pro app.
I've tried the suggested solution of clearing the data and cache but it's still working? any ideas.

Have you rescan or select the folder that the albums are in?
I have and I can get them to play thro the player but then when I re start the app they are not there and I have to do it all over again. Plus it doesn't show album covers either.
