Android Question SMM FileMaxSize and PreprocessExif

[gunnarjonsson]

Hi All!
I am trying to show all my camera photos in SMM with MediaManager.SetMediaFromFile(..
This works as expected. However I notice that photos larger than around 8.4 mb result in error FileMaxSize error and subsequently are grayed out. How Is it possible to increase this limit or can you reduce its size temporarily without creating duplicates?
I also wonder how the PreprocessExif function can be used with MediaManager.SetMediaFromFile(.. since many of my photos are shown with the wrong orientation.

Resize Image With SMM

how to change the image file size from the originally large server to small size? so that when loading multiple images the process becomes faster I use SMM and Panel to display the image MediaManager.SetMediaWithExtra(PanelImage, https://.......,"", CreateMap(MediaManager.REQUEST_RESIZE_MODE ...

Thanks for this.
I tried it like this:
MediaManager.SetMediaFromFile(pnl.GetView(x).GetView(0), pathdata.Dir, pathdata.FileName,"imag
e/png",CreateMap(MediaManager.REQUEST_RESIZE_MODE : "FILL_NO_DISTORTIONS"))

This results in only filesizes greater than 10 mb being excluded.

The orientation still is very random. I was under the impression that smm had the functionality to show photos with their original orientation.

Hi!
This is my log:

For some reason the SMM library has version 1.13 and the official version is reported as 1.12.

I am also interested in ideas how to solve the photos orientation problem.

There is indeed a limit of 8mb for downloaded files. It is currently not configurable. You will need to modify the source code that is inside the b4xlib(=zip) file. It is in line 43 of SimpleMediaManager.bas.
The reason for this limit is to provide some protection from running out of memory while trying to load very large files.

About the orientation:
1. Make sure to set the mime to: "image/jpeg"
2. Enable logs by adding SMM_DEBUG to the build configuration.

Thanks for the information. Now the orientatin works OK. When I tried to modify the lib to increase the ma filesize it was however not accepted when I tried to compile with the updated version. Perhaps it is not as easy as to just rezip the files to make a new lib.
