Great!

Right... so I think this happens because you use the app in a way that I
don't expect. I should be able to handle this again, as we did before,
but I need to think about the flow a bit.

Can you tell me where Focal puts its video files? What is the file path?
Also what is the extension?

What do you mean by exporting? Are you sharing them to a specific app? 

The test I have right now is sharing to Google Drive, Gmail and
TextSecure. These all work for me. ChatSecure doesn't work right now,
but that is a bug in ChatSecure (that will be fixed shortly!).

FYI - when you export encrypted media it will NOT show up in the
/sdcard/InformaCam folder anymore.

Strange. Is this with the Google Camera app?

Yes, this will be fixed for the encrypted files soon I hope, and/or the
J3M will be attached as another file next to them.

Okay, easy fix!

Another easy one/feature in progress.

Which thumbnails? You mean in /sdcard/InformaCam ? FYI - only
external/proofmode media will have thumbnails there now, not
internal/encrypted.

It is actually a mixed page. The old "Gallery" app does show a check,
while the new "Photos" doesn't... hmmm...

Great, yes, I am on a tear right now just focused on this app, so expect
another build tomorrow!
