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?

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
I was wondering how we could set video screens to whatever place in the videos we wanted.
I don't want to have to open my video player or my galley to black screens. I'd rather set the scene so I know what I'm looking at.
For example I don't want to see a black screen where avatar is, but would rather see a screen shot. Anyone know if this is possible?

Think the correct way to ask this is how you can customize the thumbnails in Gallery for video files. As for answer though I don't know but it certainly would be helpful since Gallery doesn't show file names.
Right, that's what I'm saying exactly. I didn't know how to put it so I described it.
My question is how can we edit the thumbnails for our gallery and video player, etc.?
I am very thankful to you xda guys. Now is a new problem. When I browse my photo album or brows in tab itself and than I see that I always get three files with names such as PC_C_3 or diffrent in the folder application data/htc/htc albums/cache. It has a size of 11 mb this uses up my internal memory. Of I delete these files nothing happens in my album. What is this? And in folder application data/htc/htc album I get first five photos of my albums in diffrent and squeezed resolution. If I delete them than other photos look horrible on the photos and videos tab. Please help!!
Hey all, first post.
I picked up an used A7 for my daughter's birthday. Managed to follow all the instructions here to get Dexter's Elocitymod installed and installed some of the recommended apps listed in the forum. It works like a dream, thanks all involved!
I have a question regarding Gallery. I ripped three of her favourite DVDs and put them on a microSD card. Gallery recognizes the card and displays the rips as screenshots without names / titles. The menu smart key will bring up the option to see the name of the file, but is there any way to have the title display with the screenshot in Gallery? Or is there a different / replacement app for Gallery that would do this?
Thx in advance.
Give Moboplayer a try, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1064795
Does Moboplayer actually organize and display pics, music and videos with their names? Or is it just a player?

Moboplayer is a video player only. Rockplayer and the default musicplayer 3.0 is all one need.
The stock player (or whatever is in Elocitymod) works fine and I may look into upgrading to one with more features later, but what I want to know is:
Are there settings that can be modified in Gallery so that when videos (or music or whatever) are expanded into the individual thumbnails/screenshots, the file names or assigned names can be shown with the thumbnails/screenshots or, if not, is there another app that does the same thing as Gallery but displays the file names or lets you assign names to associate with each thumbnail/screenshot.
I just copied over my Camera directory from my Galaxy Nexus to my new N4, but when I view the Gallery on the N4, the thumbnails are grouped with all videos first, then images after. Newly taken images show up before the videos in the first slots as normal. I also tried to empty the Gallery cache and rebooted, but they are still grouped this way.
Is this just how the N4 Gallery works now? Kind of annoying to have to scroll through all of my videos to see my older pictures. Everything should just be chronological like it was on the Galaxy Nexus. My view is set to the default grid view if that matters.
Anyone else seeing this issue?
ok, I think I figured it out. For some reason I am unable to connect my GNex to my Mac using the Android File Transfer app, so I used Airdroid instead to zip the /Camera directory and download it to my Mac instead. I think Airdroid changed the timestamp on the files in doing so, and since the videos took longer to compress/download, they got stamped with the most recent timestamp.
I think the custom ROM (Liquid 412 rc7) is preventing me from connecting to my Mac normally. Looks like I have some digging to do!
Hmm, I connected to my Windows laptop and was able to copy the /Camera from the GNex fine, then back to my N4 /Camera, rebuilt the cache and still have the videos all displayed first!
Anyone else have this problem? Or know of a way to get the Gallery to list the thumbnails of images and videos based on creation date?
TIA.
