    How to refresh Photos?

    Hi MeizuMe,

    where can I find the refresh option for the photos?

    Some have thumbnails, but most of the pictures I added with my computer just have the gray standard thumbnail.

    I already searched the forum and google, but I couldn't an answer.

    Thanks

    Unfortunately there's no such option. You can only wait until the phone shows the real thumbnails...takes some time.

    Hmm I've already waited 3 weeks...

    Is there any way to force the M8 to do a refresh?
    How about reset registry?

    I have about 1500 pictures on the phone, and I noticed that in one folder it simply gives no more thumbnails to all images having a higher starting character and all folder coming after this folder.

    In other words, is there a certain limit of thumbnails the M8 will create?

    I'm not sure, but I believe that if you delete the ThumbDB folder inside the folder where you keep the photos, the M8 will try to make new thumbnails.
    But I cannot guarantee that it will work..
    Let's just hope for the best

    I don't know if there is any thumbnail limmit, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was. Try not to keep too many photos in the same folder. That may result in photos not getting any thumbnail.

    But as I said, I'm not sure of what I'm saying is true since I don't have a lot of photos on the phone..

    TRY VIEWING them, bigger pics cant be displayed by the Meizu M8!!

    Question for you guys, how do i change the resolution of a couple of hundred pic automatically? the meizu can only display smaller pics. (will NOT display 10mega pixel pictures) I know photoshop 7.0 does it, but i forgot how to do it with an entire folder of pictures.

    IrfanView, or Faststone Image Viewer are good at batch resizing (and also great photo viewers - both free softwares)

    Format Factory is very nice too! I've only converted a few photos with it, but it worked great!
    I discovered yesterday that it has some preset settings for converting video into the optimal format and resolution for the M8! There is actually a MeiZu tab where you can find settings for the M8

    The program can convert everything into anything, and it's free
