Is there a way to notify MediaScanner service on Android platform not to scan certain directories? I have application that encrypts images on SD card and after I do that MediaScanner goes wild in LogCat (writing out “not JPEG” exception… and there are time I have over 1000 pics in directory).
Thanks
Put a file named
.nomedia(note the leading dot) in the directory. The file can be 0 bytes in length — it just has to be there with that name.
