Gallery Connect is a Picture/Video app with extended features not included in the stock Gallery. Unique features:
Remote Image/Video display with UPNP/DLNA devices. This includes select 2010 and newer internet enabled TVs (LG, Samsung, Panasonic). It's a nice way to show off those holiday pictures on the big screen.
Support for JPEG, Canon and Nikon raw files (CR2 & NEF)
Support for direct reading from an SD card or any directory
Shows latest photos/videos at the top of the list
Setup:
Download
From the menu select Media Source (defaults to internal camera home) Note: /Removable/SD is SD card
Turn on Play To/UPNP Renderer Functionality on device (See next post)
Select Remote from the menu and select a device.
DLNA Devices Tested:
Windows Media Player 12 (Window 7)
LG 50PZ550 (Any 2011 internet enabled LG should work)
Panasonic DMP-BDTx10 Blu-Ray Players
XBOX 360 in Media Extender Mode
Western Digital Live Plus
Denon AVR-3311CI
Many, many more are compatible. Is your device supported?
See the official DLNA list at http://www.dlna.org/products/. Select "Play To" Receiver and Photo and/or Video.
TODO:
Slideshow. Should it hide the navigator?
Remote Images need to auto-rotate or zoom
No way to stop remote video playback (Work around: select a photo)
Remote playback is dumb. It doesn't check for device compatibility
Leaving "Remote" functionality on will prevent tablet from entering deep sleep
MTP support (direct camera connections).
Improve portrait visual support (landscape works best)
Deselected selected item on Media Source change
Add fling to change images
Notes:
Should work on any Android 2.2+ device
Remote functionality requires a Wifi enabled Android device and a UPNP/DLNA Media Renderer on the same network (LAN).
Local video playback is delegated whatever media player you may have installed.
Photo/video support is highly device dependent. As a generally rule, anything you can play off a USB drive should work via DLNA. Videos shot on phones/tablets seem to work well. Canon .mov video files seem to have audio issues on many devices (why they did not use MP4/AAC is beyond me)
Please click some ads! This is a fully functional version and I've spend 100s of hours on it. I'm not asking for your money. Just a little of your time. If enough people do it, I may be able to get a new USB cable.
Enabling Play To/DLNA
Gallery Remote should automatically detect your DLNA devices when you select remote, but you may need to enable their Media Renderer functionality. Here's how for select devices:
Windows Media Player 12 (Windows 7)
Click "Stream"
Select "Allow Remote Control of My Player..."
Confirm Changes (depending on security)
LG TV:
Turn on the TV
Select OK when it asks for permission
Panasonic Blu-Ray DMP-BDTx10:
Setup ->Player Settings ->Network ->Network Settings ->Remote Device Settings
Remote Device Operation="On"
Thank you. Works great!
Thanks for everyone that's trying it. I noticed there are a few crashes (Force closes). I'm going to attempt to fix them. I should have a new version up shortly.
Added 0.5.1 Fixes:
NPE From null Device From UPNP Parse timeout
Fixes NPE crash from MP4 with no create date
Fixed parse error from INT MAX VALUE received from UPNP Device
Added non-functional Slideshow button (Play)
Fixed copy/paste bug from chunkOffset
This is awesome...Now I need a NEW TV!,,lol..
Updated to 0.5.2
Added Slideshow functionality
Fixed crash on change Media Source with a selected File
Fixed only selecting Video caused a crash
Fixed crash on reading corrupt (zero length) or secured files
Fixed video check was using photo checked status
Updated to 0.5.3
Added Timeout for UPNPDevice Parser (should fix ThreadQueue overrun)
Updated JPEG parser to use a dynamic buffer length (should prevent BufferUnderflow)
Fixed Issue where refresh() would reparse all MediaFiles
Hopefully this release will fix the crash on scan (on start-up / after you enter the directory). If not, I'm going to have to add more logging...
Uploaded 0.7
New:
Manual Rotation
Remote Mirroring of rotation, zoom, and movement (very cool, if I do say so)
Improved Portrait Layout
Fixed:
Crash on negative count (corrupt file?)
Can't reselect a player was that was closed and reopened
Fixed "0" creatationTime causing video date to appears as Dec 31, 1969
Upload 0.7.1
Lots of bug fixes
Fixed mutliple issues with rotation corrupting the remote connection (related to Transformer bug)
Improved memory recovery on rotation/shutdown
Fixed issue with menu icons not being colored correctly (2.2)
Fixed issue where SSDP Listener was not being shutdown properly under certain scenarios
I've been mostly testing the remote stuff on my Galaxy S. It appears that 3.2.1 has a bug where it disregards the manual rotation handling and recreates the Activity. This leaked the server connection and would cause Socket in use exceptions for subsequent connections. Took the opportunity to clean up the connect/disconnect handling.
I'm getting close to posting it on the market. Anybody have any issues? Any suggestions for functionality? Any name suggestions?
Update 0.7.5
Lots of little improvements
Fling to change images/video. It's still a little clunky.
Improved Remote dialog layout
Improved disconnect efficiency
Improved (optional) logging
Changed from "Remote" to "Connect" and "Disconnect"
Bug fixes
Fixed crash if tried to move/size empty screen
Fixed bug for XML elements with no children (Crash on device scan)
I now have all the crashes I've seen fixed. Hopefully, I didn't add any new ones. I've made crash logging optional. It will present a notification. You can just click "Ok" to send it. Please leave a short description as it will help me out.
Important: I am now passing the last 20 lines from the syslog on crash/parse error. I'm only sending logs from this app and the ActivityManager. I've added extra remote logging for JPEG parser issues. It will send me the name and path of the file, but not the picture. It will send up to 3 parser logs per session.
Update 0.9
Lots of improvements
Improved start up time on large set w/status notification
Faster (mostly) stutter free thumbnail display
Removed logging and ominous permission requirement
Added Share, Camera & Exit
Auto detect of external media (SD/USB) insertion
Android Media integration (now default)
Improved icon scaling
Remote play no longer blocks, it queues the last request (no more server busy errors)
Ads
I haven't seen any crashes, hopefully I can fix this with the new version
Update 0.9.5
The last release was supposed to be the the final release, but I ended up making some major changes. Lots of new networking code.
Mostly performance and bug fixes to many minor to list, but here are the major ones:
When playing a video, you will now get a seekable progress bar and the ability to pause (stop) a video
Forced the screen to stay on during slideshow to prevent SD unmount (and app crash)
Rewrote network stack to improve device detection, play position accuracy and player notifications
Fixed bug with NOTIFY (Should improve compatibility/stability)
Reverted to my JPEG thumbnail parser
I saw no crashes with the latest version! Let hope this version is as good.
Update 0.9.6
Some minor fixes and annoyances resolved:
Wrote a custom layout handler to handle ad/video progress base location. Faster, fewer listview invalidates
Changed picture filter to ignore images <32k as opposed to specific file names.
Use my mp4 parser to agument Android's for better resolution detection.
Fixed issue where the TIFF parser was reporting errors on files < buffer size.
Hopefully, I'll get this on the market in the next month.
What's next (version 1+):
Pro version (no ads)
Better fling transitions (like Gallery)
Thumbnail view for mass operations like import (especially raw), upload and delete
Picassa (or other) image net source support
Print
Gesture based rotation
Mock ActionBar for Android < 3.0
Suggests?
Update 0.9.6.1
Fixes a couple of force closes
A tail of two releases. I've post both 0.9.6.1 and 0.9.6.1d. The "d" stands for debug. In the event of a parser crash, version "d" will send the EXIF header as part of the debug. The EXIF header primarily contains camera information at the time of shoot. It may contain things like your name, your GPS location at the time of shooting. It doesn't contain anything sensitive like user names or password. It's the same information you send when you upload a picture to Facebook or Picasa or e-mail a photo (minus the actually photo). I've gone through hoops to make sure it does not upload any part of the visual image.
I encourage the debug version as I still have a few crashes that I can't seem to nail down. I will not share the information.
Update:
Thanks! I've now found a couple of problems. First, some apps are naming GIF files a jpgs (arg). Second, some cameras are writing invalid type tags. I'm updating my code to ignore them as per the spec.
Update 9.7
Oh well, "final beta" is out the window at this point.
Enabled hardware acceleration (Image size must be < 4MP on Tranformer). Watch those thumbnails fly!
Removed custom preferences in favor of Android standard. Sorry, your old prefs will be lost.
Add new prefs for slideshow delay, hardware accelaration, max image size, remote scaling, and thumbnail list size.
Add the ability hide thumbnails (configurable by orientation). Portrait disabled by default.
Improved fling (still needs work)
Smoother transition on undersized scaling.
Improved remote scaling
Made refresh smarter
Improved handling of bad EXIF formats
Added Google Analytics
Removed all non-crash debugging. Thanks for those downloaded it!
What's left before I hit the market?
Improve fling (complicated)
Expose extended EXIF info
Figure out what will be in the pro vs the free version.
Ironically, I'll probably publicly release on BlackBerry before Android.
Update 9.7.1
Mostly bug fixes
Fixed issue where rotated items would not recenter if sized below frame size
Fixed crash due to playing an invalid item
Added check for 0 could EXIF size (in attempt to resolve out of memory crash)
Added experimental Cloud Print
Release Candidate 1
Well, it's been over 6 months in the making, but here it is. I would consider this version shippable. What's new:
Complete re-write of the touch engine, more natural fling and movement.
Complete re-write of the display engine. Images now optimized for your display for fast drawing and a crisper look.
Faster remote display
Fixed issue with Denon receivers hanging.
Too many others to list.
Release Candidate 2
Ok. Only 1 crash after a week.
Fixed MP4Parser crash due to buffer under run (I think)
Changed Name to Gallery Connect as Gallery Remote was taken. Unfortunately, it will not replace the old app. You'll have to uninstall it.
Updated Icons and Visuals
Fixed a duplicate HTTP Header issue.
Got my Google Developer account. Hopefully, I'll be putting this on the market next week!
RC2a
Ooops. Forgot to enable crash reporting in RC2
Hopefully, this will be the same as what goes on the market.
Fixes:
Smooth transitions are fixed
Fixed a crash issue if an MP4 doesn't have a MOOV record (crash on scan)
Hopefully fixed a buffer underfill issue (crash on connect)
Created new packages for the free and paid versions. This should be the final package. You'll have to manually uninstall the old version again.
Fixed a crash if you disconnect from Wifi and then attempt to reconnect if Wifi still hasn't been established.

==================================
Finally, some notes on my app development.
After about three months of app design and development, website frontend and backend setup, blog setup and social website setup,
this PicPac app is live for public beta testing. I am an independent Android developer and a PhD student, so I do not have much money to play with for graphic
design and in-depth testing. So I really hope the public can give me bug report and feedback to help me improve this app.
XDA-Developer is a great place as always that encourages me a lot for my Android app development
Cheers!
The in-app purchases have changed.
Previously has Pro $1.99 to enable some of the features, then Premium $1.99 to enable all features (requires to upgrade to Pro first)
Now only keep Pro $1.99 which include all the features. This is updated from some user feedback and to clear the confusion of two-step upgrade.
Enjoy~
Very impressive. Gonna give this a go today at the beach.
looks awesome.Gonna try.Thank you for the application !

Hope you can make sense of al that text, cause I can't!! lol
wow. just nice.
My son has been looking for an app like this forever! Brilliant, purchased two copies!
App is really cool but cannot download music from SoundCloud, the download stops after a few seconds saying unsuccessful. Any ideas?
interesting stuff.... will try it out and come back with some feedback.
i used to love making stop motion type videos but transferring tons of pictures to the computer from a camera was a pain. good looks on this

Thank you for the logcat. I also got a few from the Google Play Console.
That was probably because I forgot to encode the query string to a good format, so for example if it contains space, it crash...
I have updated the code to fix a few other bugs, and will push it to Google Play in a few hours.
You will get the app auto updated in roughly 12 hours.

Not sure exactly why, but many of SoundCloud music are from free users, and their song can only be download for a limited times (maybe 1000).
Try a different song, and a smaller sized one?
Waiting for your feedback :good:
Cheers
App updated. Will get auto update from Google Play in about 3 hours.
v1.08 - Various bug fixes: select music, search SoundCloud music, timelapse, reduce image size to save memory.
v1.09 - Urgent fix - cannot save videos in v1.08 sometimes.
Well done keep up the good work,might give this a shot soon.
So far so good
v1.11 - New feature: Rotate individual pictures by long press (Android\'s camera is very sensitive to orientation change!). Other bug fixes.
Hey..
This app is amazing.
Thanks a lot.
Just 1 suggestion: is it possible to add an option to add image from Gallery which would launch the default gallery app..? Or like add pic from album so that it is easy to add pics to a project..
The current pic selector takes a lot of time to load each picture.. And its quite hard to find some specific pic out of a bunch of 1000+ pics..
Hope u consider my suggestion..
Thanky you again..

You have SOOOO many pictures in your phone! My dev phone (Nexus 5) only have 200+, and I clean it regularly so it runs ok ^_^
Currently the only solution is to create another project with your new pics, then combine (i.e. Pro feature) your two or more projects into one.
The problem of the default gallery app is that it only support selecting one picture a time, so if you want to add multiple pictures, you need to do it multiple times.
I will definitely consider your suggestion, and support adding pics into existing project soon

v1.12 (22/03/2014) - Bug fixed based on ACRA reports.
ACRA is a must-have for all Android developers to collect live exception stack tract! No need to wait for Google Developer Console (only a few people will report).

Lol.. Actually i like to have all my photos with me all the time..
If gallery only allows us to add 1 pic at a time then that would be a bigger problem..
See im no developer so i dont know what is possible and what is not..
But i have a few (stupid) ideas:
1) There could be a way to make ur app to read pictures in different folders.. Like you see when u send pics on Whatsapp..
2) Instead of launching gallery you could launch a file Explorer.. That would allows us to add few pics at once..
3) I think this could be possible.. When we add pic there r options on top to select today, last 7days and all.. If you could make that bar scrool horizontally and add options like last month or 6 month..
These r just vague ideas.. I have no intention of dumping them on you..
The app is great anyway..

Looks good, at the moment there are a few similar apps available, I have tried all of them, now the difference will be in the amount of features. I like that the refresh rate looks good (unlike some of the other apps available).
Last time I checked your app was not in Samsung Gear Apps store, but will give it a try once available. At the moment there are two apps that are my favorites, one that can record video and high resolution pictures, but the refresh is not that smooth, and the other is 'buttery smooth' but can only record pictures up to 1080p in resolution. Hopefully your app might become one of my favorites as well
Thank you for comment. My app takes pictures in highest resolution possible for chosen camera (rear or front). Video recordig feature will be added in next update, along with resolution choice feature. I will notify here, when app will pass certification and be available in Samsung Gear Apps store.
App is on sale

Hello,
Im planning to add more camera settings including image effects and stabilization in next updates.
Update
Phone Camera Remote app v1.2 update was released.
Changelog:
-customizable camera settings
-scene modes selection
-color effects selection
-gallery images group by date
Excellent app, but ...
.... the only thing that doesn't work for me is an actual view in zoom mode. The image on the gear 2 neo stays the same when camera zoomed in. The camera is zoomed and if I take a picture I get a zoomed image, but the display on the neo stays the same, making it impossible to set a frame for the picture when using zoom.
Otherwise, this is one very cool app.
Phone: Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini running stock O2 android 4.2.2 (with gear support)
Watch: Gear 2 Neo
Ill try to fix zoom issue. Never saw it while testing on s4.

That would be fantastic. Having used the app in several situations lately, it is already in the top two best uses for the Gear 2 Nano, along with the Music Player++ app.
If you can fix the zoom preview issue, it will be hands down the best app I have on the watch.
Thanks for all the hard work!

May I have some questions. What is the videobit of 1080P? Can I increase it or your app just read out it from media_profiles.xml? How is the jpg compression rate on your app? Will you add support for 4K recording for note3/note4/S5/Alpha?
Sorry for too many questions but I'm thinking to get a Gear2 just for this app before I buy it I want to know all things first.

Hello,
app uses default videobit for all video resolutions. Jpg compression rate is 90. As for 4K, it will be available as experimental feature in next update (experimental, because 4K video is not fully supported by the standard Android API yet).

Thanks for fast reply, you are real quick. Because the default videobit is just around 20M on all Samsung phones and definitely not enough for 1080P. Can I increase it by modify the media_profiles.xml myself? or can you add support various bitrate selection for it?
Good news for 4K experimental feature, hope Android 5.0 will real support 4k.

If android takes default value from media_profiles.xml, then modifying media_profiles.xml might help. As for manual bitrate setting, I will try if it is effective to change bitrate manually.

Beautiful, fast.
Search option is not working like it should, when you "click" the song you searched, it will play another different song.
:good:

Thanks! So far it's been rather fantastic. So there's mention of a paid for app in there and every time I click it it sends me to a blank page.
Pressing menu on nav-bar causes app to stretch under the nav-bar.
Though this needs confirmations, could be Venom ROM related.
I think I had similar issues(all apps ignoring the nav boundaries) when configuring the nav-bar buttons.
PS: The cover art stretching should probably be fixed at some point. Also the whole now playing view gets really stretched in landscape.
I'll be following the development. Seems really promising app for me, as I like having options to make UI work most efficiently for me.

You can see the stretching happen in that earlier picture, people and faces become thinner. Ticking the crop option didn't seem to change it. I'd prefer it cropping or scaling down instead of stretching.
Also here's how it stretches with me in landscape.
awesome music player with a sleek and elegant ui ,I rated it 4 stars because of only one reason that I didn't liked the app icon much,could you change it like a materialised icon or something like that

Did you just copy everything from Flare Music Player??
I think they just both copied from this one actually, which seems the oldest : http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-myplayer-lightweight-music-player-t2892233
Not really cool, especially while trying to make a paid version from someone else work. But maybe I'm wrong.

I checked this out I saw many apps pretty much same and same features I'm guessing it's made from an open sourced music player but My player is still one of the best

Very cool, amazing view of the Earth!
One issue I noticed was when switching between regular and fullscreen view on those youtube videos. Playback wouldn't be smooth, and it tended to jump around (maybe a problem due to your onCreate being called because of an orientation change?) Also, the app shouldn't have an exit button. Check out this video for a (slightly overdramatic) explanation youtube.com/watch?v=631T7B8HOv4.
Thanks, I thought about it myself))
