location of the photos taken by the camera

> This can vary by OEM

thanks.

then it would be nice if there was a standard way to reference this folder
(same for Video, of course).

Somehow maybe it could use the same API as the one to get the pathname of
the various system folders (SHGetDocumentsFolder). or if using the
registry, it could be stored in a standardized key.

there are hundreds of devices out there, so it is not easy for ISV's to deal
with something that is not standardized, like a folder location.

if there is no standardized way, can you please put that in a developer's
wish list for the next version of windows mobile?

thanks!

Hiii,,

I want to ask if there's any way to access the captured image while
it's being in RAM [for some
processing]??? Need some guidance here please.

I'll be glad if anyone could tell me how.. Thanks..

Hello Pocket TV,
I believe the Registry key is standard. I have an HTC Touch and my reg says
"\My Documents\My Pictures\".
The reg key is
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Pictures\Camera\oem\PictureLocation\Internal"

There is also one called
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Pictures\Camera\oem\PictureLocation\External"

thanks. i'll check if the same key exists on some other devices.

is there a key indicating which of the "internal" or "external" folder is
being used by the camera?
