Trying saving bitmap into gallery Bitmap bitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(surfaceView.getWidth(), surfaceView.getHeight(), Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888); surfaceView.draw(new Canvas(bitmap)); MediaStore.Images.Media.insertImage(getContentResolver(), bitmap, "foo" , "bar"); I ran the application on the emulator and got an UnsupportedOperationException. 07-25 22:27:48.719: E/MediaStore(1918): Failed to insert image 07-25 22:27:48.719: E/MediaStore(1918): java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: Unknown URI: content://media/external/images/media 07-25 22:27:48.719: E/MediaStore(1918): at android.database

I got a perfect Intent.ACTION_PICK with my picture. startActivityForResult(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, android.provider.MediaStore.Images.Media.INTERNAL_CONTENT_URI), SELECT_IMAGE); But it doesn't work with video. When i click on a video of my list, it play the vidoe instead of send me back. startActivityForResult(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, android.provider.MediaStore.Video.Media.INTERNAL_CONTENT_URI), SELECT_VIDEO); An idea ? typo.pl You want to use Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT and specify video/* for the type to pass to Intent.setType .

I'm using MediaStore.Images.Thumbnails in order to show the images the user have. But i'm not able to get an image through its path. Is there any way to look for an image using the path? String [] proj={MediaStore.Images.Thumbnails._ID, MediaStore.Images.Thumbnails.IMAGE_ID, MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA}; String selection = MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA + " like '%path%'"; //this doesn't work cursor = managedQuery( MediaStore.Images.Thumbnails.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI, proj, // Which columns to return selection, // WHERE clause; null, null); // Order-by clause Best regards!

Is there a way to play audio obtained from MediaStore through the use of the MediaPLayer, Or am I going in the completely wrong direction? I've looked and MediaStore.Audio so far but nothing is really helping me. I just need to know if I'm on the right track First, I assume you have basic knowledge of querying a ContentProvider and working with Cursors.

Let's

Consider the scenario as in this picture: Three photos, one of them is a large GIF file (3MP). I'm querying MediaStore in order to retrieve the correspondent thumbnails. If I initialize the Cursor via CursorLoader with this sortOrder: MediaStore.Images.Media.DATE_ADDED + " DESC"" What happens: MediaStore returns the previous successfully retrieved thumbnail: Expected behaviour: when MediaStore cannot retrieve the thumbnail of a given image for some reason it has to return NULL, as per its Javadoc: "... Returns A Bitmap instance. It could be null if the original image associated with origId

I'm playing around with Android's MediaStore classes and was attempting to create a very simple photo gallery app when I noticed that were two image content URIs: EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI and INTERNAL_CONTENT_URI . At first I thought it was referring to the location of storage (external SD or internal memory) but after a bit of testing this was clearly not the case. I read more about it here , and it seemed to indicate that the internal content uri is actually content that are internal to each of the apps on the device. However I am not entirely sure and wanted opinions from more experienced
