Gallery - Be careful. - Galaxy Tab General

Today, I opened gallery after a long time. It was full of all sorts of pictures! If you watch any kind of movie, gallery saves few pictures from that! I don't know how this happens, because there are no settings to avoid this.

So did you watch a p0rn clip and it shows up in Gallery? LoL

busted!

Add a blank file named .nomedia to any directory you don't want Gallery to index.
This can also speed the start-up process.

Ok It worked once I restarted my device,but is there a way to block audio form games like Gangstar and asphalt from being shown in your music app?
Is there a .noaudio file or something?

Just be glad you found it first, not your wife/girlfriend

.nomedia should work for the music

".noaudio" is a good idea, and we're looking forwarded for something ".nocontact" ".nosms" LOL

lmao!. if the wife/girlfriend *****es, tell her who cares

Could be worse - i started having screenshots of asphalt 5 as my camera prieview rather than the image. It still took pictures of whatever the camera was pointing at though

I believe that has something to do with exiting out of the game with home, or LCD Density changer, its one of them, used to happen to me as well,

What the hell are you talking about?
According to developer.motorola.com/products/droidx/, the Droid X supports "WMDRM-PD (Janus)".
I was able to sync a Windows Media DRMed "digital copy" of a DVD to it, which plays fine on the device but still did not go into this folder.

Need help retrieving a video

I took a really important 2 minute video of our kids over the long weekend with my Epic 4g. While recording, I paused the video, then exited the camera app without saving the video. I now can't find the video, and am prettty sure it is lost. But, is there ANY way I can get that video back? Any cache or anything else I can check? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!! I am running SRF 1.1.1.

Sounds like it's gone...the only thing I can think of is check the LOST.DIR file in your sd card and look for a large file. If you have one, try opening it up with a video player on your computer (vlc should work)

If it was saved it would be in the dcim file on your sd card. Get astro from the market and look on your sd card for it.

ES file explorer will let you open any file as a video file. Probably the fastest way to do it.
Thank for all of the advice, but I was unable to find the video. We had some heavy storms on Friday night, and the kids were slip-n-sliding in the mud. One of those moments for the scrapbook. Oh well. Thanks again to all for offering suggestions!

I've had similar problems in finding pics I took, which I thought was lost. I think a power off and on made them show back up in gallery app.

[Q] Music Index Issues

I've noticed that on stock EF02 and alos EF02Plus rom I'm having trouble with music indexing. It seems to not be able to properly tie albums to artists. Haven't had this issue on other roms that I've tried....Anyone know the reason for this? Is there a painless way to fix it?
No one else having this issue?

I think you need to clarify what do you actually mean by saying:

This happens to me from time to time with random electronics. I just think your sd card is confused. Its no biggie.

Also, manually inspecting the files on pc and then putting them back on the sdcard fixes it sometimes.
It might be the media scanner, even though its happened on my hero and whatnot

I mean a lot of my albums end up under unknown instead of under the artist. For instance ill have 5 albums by the same artist, but only three will get categorized under the artist. The other two will go to unknown. Its weird because I flash often, but it only seems to happen on the stock ef02 rom. Or Roms based on that.

Thanks you for clarifying. Well, you need to make sure that all songs are tagged properly.
I use Tag&Rename for this purpose.
What I find annoying is that if an album is a compilation of different artist and artist tag is filled with actual artist name vs something like Various artists then every player that I used treats it as separate album. I understand that it's probably the query grouping, but when I want to see everything sorted by album, why does not do just that, I do not want Album+Artist.

Gallery app ?

Does anyone know of a good app for the photos? I really do not like the way the gallery is laid out. I have tried a few, but they do not upload directly from the camera.
If you found a good gallery replacement, please post a link.
Thanks in advance! :thumbup::beer:

Love Quickpic, but it has no support for Picasa.
I love QuickPic and use it regularly. I just wish I could find an app that showed gallery in a hirearchial structure. ie. I have pics in several folders by event under a folder 2011, however you don't see the parent folder structure organization, so they aren't as informative. Yes, I know I can embedded the dates in the exif data, but dates were just the easiest example, could also be done for wallpapers based on category, but I dropsync both tablet and phone images on the phone and have same folders under each parent directory.
Haven't found any other app that does this, unless it's a feature I missed in QuickPic or Scalado Album( which is also pretty decent ).

Dropbox?
If you don't have it yet that is a referral link and if you use that to sign up we both get 500mb of space for free. Also dropbox's app seems to work well and you get free space for uploading pictures, up to 3gigs from just uploading photos =D. You can give links out directly from your dropbox so it should work for what you want not sure what else there is for it. *Oh and there is a nice toggle for only uploading while you are in wifi if you want that so save data and it will do it automatically*
I don't think I would pay for a service like dropbox but it is awesome with it being free.
