Hello,
I'm new to Android Development, and I'm encountering a Media Scan issue, I have a gif file, which saved in a hidden folder(.foldername), and when I executing MediaScan, the log shows [.nomedia], and null uri was received, when I move the gif file to non-hidden folder, everything works perfectly, so I am wondering is there any ways that makes MediaScanner able to scan file in the hidden folder?
Thank you guys very much.
