Option to set default file transfer path

[shmaltz]

Is there an option to set a default file transfer path for files transferred to the device?

I am trying to send over pictures, but when I try to use them in messaging apps, they don't show up. I have to manually go to the phones root and open and share it from there.

Any idea how to fix this?

Thanks!

Implemented by a90ccbd on dev branch (will be in v1.10).

scrcpy --push-target=/sdcard/some/directory/

Thank you!

I noticed that when pushing images to the device, that messaging apps, etc, don't recognize the image right away, seemingly because the media gallery hasn't been updated. Is there a way to automatically refresh the phones media gallery so the photo is usable in these apps right away?

A long time ago, it was possible with:

adb shell am broadcast -a android.intent.action.MEDIA_MOUNTED -d file:///mnt/sdcard

I think it does not work anymore (not tested).

Maybe:

adb shell am broadcast -a android.intent.action.MEDIA_SCANNER_SCAN_FILE -d file://

Will this code cause it to constantly scan automatically, or will I have to run this command every time I upload a file?

I guess every time. I did not test.
