Public bug reported: mediascanner should support using file:// in lookups
In multiple places we do MediaStore.lookup(somepath), however mediascanner only accepts urls that do not contain a file:// at the start (it has to be /). This is inconsistent with qtubuntu-media/media-hub as they give us file:///path and Jim says "the media service handles both". So to remain consistent with the rest of the platform, can the lookup method and any other relevant methods accept a url with or without file:// at the start ? ** Affects: mediascanner2 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to mediascanner2 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1534775 Title: mediascanner should support using file:// in lookups Status in mediascanner2 package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: mediascanner should support using file:// in lookups In multiple places we do MediaStore.lookup(somepath), however mediascanner only accepts urls that do not contain a file:// at the start (it has to be /).
