Highlights and Htc share - Verizon HTC One (M7)

So I like highlights and all but it's a bit confusing to navigate through all the required options.....for now I'm wondering what is the purpose of the highlight button? All it seems to do is add it to a new album folder called highlights but it does not actually make a video highlight.....
And when installing NOS Rom I think I removed something important for HTC share because I can't login or use HTC share at all. Any idea what apk id have to reflash ? Thanks .

Highlights is a highlight of photos from an event or such grouped into a small video... It works just fine for me... You have to save it after editing or viewing the highlight.

No those are the 30 second "highlight videos", which also work well for me. I'm tallking about when you go into your camera shots, view a photo, tap for more details, there's option to share delete and also "highlight" and star it. When I do this it does not make a highlight reel but only makes an album in my gallery for highlighted shots almost like starred or favorites (not the 30 second highlight video)

Looks like it just creates another folder with anything you highlight. May just be that...a way to look through all of your photos and pick which ones you like. Then they get organized so you can easily see just them
Actually a good idea. I use the HTC device to quickly shows stuff on the tv screen at work. I take a lot of picts for meetings and this would allow me to quickly pick ones I just want to show then. Not have to flick through them all during the meeting.
** By the way...the Media Link HD is something they did very well. By far the most reliable, quickest and easiest device to quickly show videos, pictures, Music, your screen (quickly show web pages live etc) that anyone has made. We also have Apple TV and Samsung media devices at work. This one just dominates them. And it is sooo portable. I bring it on the road so watch movies in the rooms.

Makes sense I suppose. Also very cool with media link...
Question: when you save/export the auto generated 30 second video highlights it is saved as a video file. Why on earth can you not upload this to HTC share? It says video is not supported .....

New YouTube App released

http://www.tgdaily.com/content/view/41799/145/
Downloading now...
After using it for a few mins... Cool new little app, but ide rather stick to using HTC streaming media/internet explorer combo.
Cons:
-Cant clear/erase any text in input boxes by hitting the back button, it will end up being used like a normal back button command and return you to previous programs/home screen. Very annoying, you will have to close the program and reopen it to reuse the search field.
-No option to sign into your own YouTube account like you can on m.youtube.com. I like being able to go to my favorites and my videos. You cant do this with this application.
Pros:
-Very fast and simple layout.
-The video buffers extremely fast and the video/sound quality is superior to HTC Streaming Media Player.
-Seems to be stable.
Youtube
Yes anyone whos new here u want HTC_Streaming_Media. Cab file, forget about anything else to use YouTube.

Seems like a nice YouTube app, except I can't get any sound on my Dash. Any suggestions?
Does this Youtube app, load an icon into programs? or does it make a folder in programs ?

Load a video then press up, mine had no sound til I pushed up on the D-Pad and got the players slid bar.
Not a bad app, but too limited, SvB4EvA review is spot on

Questions/thoughts about my Incredible

Ok I'm coming from another phone where I'm used to certain things so I'm trying to figure out some things on the Incredible... any help would be appreciated.
1. How do I send MMS video? No matter what resolution I take a video at, when I try to send it through MMS I get the message saying it's too large. It doesn't give me the option to edit it and send or anything.... When I used other android devices (Hero and N1) there was an option to take "MMS Video" which I thought was pretty poor way of doing things since I could be taking a video that I then wanted to later send as MMS but didn't have the option if it wasn't taken at MMS... Shouldn't it just convert it and send it for you or something? Anyhow, I don't even see the "MMS Video" option so I figured they had fixed this and made it so it converts it for you but no dice...
2. In the web browser I can't view videos like on Vimeo etc... For some reason I was under the impression that this phone did flash? But I can't get flash videos OR HTML5 embedded videos to load. :-( Now on Vimeo, the video does appear to be there but when I hit the play button the loading bar appears, loads up to 100% and then nothing happens... and hitting the full screen toggle in the corner of the video window doesn't make it full screen either... What am I doing wrong?
3. On the mail client it doesn't seem to be rendering HTML correctly. Some of the formatting is broken and I have to tell it to load pictures each time I open a message. Is there a way to change it so it always loads all HTML and pictures? Also when I do click to load the pictures, the rendering is off and not sized correctly; I have to scroll side to side as well as up an down to view the full email. Also a lot of the text is unaligned especially around pictures. This also happens in the Gmail app too. How can I improve this?
4. In the camera App, the app works fine actually it's just odd that the controls are stuck in landscape mode and when I turn the phone to portrait the controls don't change with it... Just seems like something that should be addressed especially in out of the box apps.
5. Is there a way to arrange the order my friends are in on the people widget?
6. What's the default movie player on the Incredible and does it support subtitles/chapters? How do I get them on the device?
7. What are some good task switchers you recommend? Other than the default long press on home task switcher.
try skyfire browser for vimeo.. works well but unfortunately does not work for hulu

simple problem with photo albums

the other day i was playing around with htc albums. this app uis what i primarily use to view pics and vids. in fact it it linked to the camera app as the app that is used to view picture that you would take.
anyways, i somehow got this to show me every picture on my phone which i thought was nice and interesting, bad thing is that now every time i open this app it shows all the pics on my "device" and storage card and they are all mixed up. i want this to be like it used to be, it used to juts show the pics i have taken with the camera....
i tried to change the "favorite album" but it goes right back to showing all my pics even thumbnails in the opera temp folder
please advise
well i figured what was causing this, and the fix.
apparently booting to android causes something, prolly android, to create a thumbnails folder within my dcim folder
and it seems to make a thumbnail of all the pics it can find and drop them in this folder. it will even make thumbnails or thumbnails
this also explains why some of the pix i was taking with the cam looked like crap, because i was viewing thumbnails
fix: delete this thumbnail folder, but it will come back as soon as i boot android
just thought i'd share

Names of Videos in stock Gallery.

Hi all,
One of the best things of the SGS for me is not having to convert anything. I watch a lot of tv shows with my phone.
There is no way, at least none that I'm aware of, to display the name of the file under the thumbnail, so I'm forced to open a video just to know its name.
Is there a way or an app that would let me display the name of the file before opening it?
That silly feature would make worth paying for a gallery app from where I stand.

Only way to do it is to select the file them click on more and then details. Been looking for a good gallery replacement but havent found one yet.....
I didn't think of that. But it's still faster to open the vids one by one.
You can also create a video shortcut in the homescreen and you'll get to the videos by name. But you won't get them by folders, so it mixes up shows with camera videos.
Or open it with myfiles and go to the folder and open from there. I wonder if you can create a shortcut to a folder on the home screen.
All workarounds.
Why not use the Video Player app that came with the phone?.... show name and thumbnails

Help to convert video

Tried searching but didn't find this question.
I have made picture video with music of my little girl to leave with her for one day.
I have used DVD Catalyst 4 to convert them. It says the specs are converted to 1280x720. When I watch them on the phone the pictures are cropped at the top and bottom so I can't see all the picture.
The video looks perfect while playing on the computer.
So does anyone know of a different, ????x???, screen size so the pictures match my compter?
Thanks so much if you can help.

Hi Antonio,
Thank you for using DVD Catalyst,
Check the player you are using on your Samsung Galaxy S3. It could be that it is set to some Zoom setting that cuts off the video.
The files that DVD Catalyst 4 creates should play in all the video players, so you might want to try the Gallery app and/or the Google Videos app as well, and see if that makes a difference.
If that doesn't help, it is probably easier to just send me an email directly. Just tap on the "email us" button in DVD Catalyst, or use dvdcatalyst at gmail dot com.

Thanks,
No matter what video player I tried, BS Player, Stock video player, Rock Player, the zoom button did nothing at all on all 3.
Could not get it so I tried the drag and drop and let the phone convert it and it turned out perfect.
I just read some people are having issues with this method about the video not playing so I never tried it.
