Hello, I was working on uploading a video to google drive with the camcorder. as you can see below
Thanks in advance
i found the camera version in this topic:
Did you look at the path for the clip ? It is probably a contentUri which cannot be read by the base64 extension.
Use Taifun's File extension to convert the content uri to a file path, then try....
or
If you use @Juan_Antonio 's Base64 extension, you can convert a file to base64 string, and find a block to convert a contentUri to a file path.
can you guide me through the first option Tim.
Using KIO4_Base64 extension, should look like this:
(checked that the file path does not change after API 29/30....)
ill try it and get back
Sorry, not working, more testing needed
yeah, it isnt working
what about the taifun file extension version?
OK, this working in companion on Android 13
(you may want to do some cleaning up of files at some point in /DCIM/Camera)
what is ASD?
anyways ill do and check it
it works in the companion but doesnt work in the app, im on android 11
what do i do
Will have to debug a compiled app to see what is going on
Any solution to it?
My tests show that the base64 string is not being generated (the clip is being successfully copied to the ASD), even if I include a clock timer, and the app eventually crashed. Will need to revisit this later and try a different method.
These are my testing blocks (I am not trying to upload yet....)
what will happen if we use the taifunfile extension
There is no issue with the contenturi conversion, and I have never had a problem converting to base64 string with Juan's extension. Just need to work through the flow.
