Problem in fetching images on the Android Emulator

Hi!

I am trying to fill a form "Person" using eclipse in android emulator
(version 8). I am unable to display images on the form. Here are the steps I
tried.

  • On Command prompt:
    . "adb shell"
    . "cd /sdcard/odk/forms/"
    . "mkdir Person-media"
    . "exit"
    . "adb push logo.jpg /sdcard/odk/forms/Person-media/"
    (the file copies and shows in the emulator's shell)
  • On Debugging, the ODK Collect installs and executes fine. I downloaded my
    form using "Manage Forms".
  • The form opens but I don't receive any error message when I go to this
    Logo widget.

The same happens with Videos as well. I thought it would be a file format
problem but "JPG" has to be supported anyway!

Please help me out.

Hi Yaw!

I generated this XML from build.opendatakit.org. I see major differences
between the generated xml and this one. How do I do this through visual
designer (is there any for eclipse)?

Thanks,

build currently supports only capturing multimedia. there is
currently, no visual designer that supports multimedia as part of the
prompt. if you are familiar with eclipse, you can probably look at the
xml and code it up by hand. the alternative is to wait a few days for
xls2xform which will allow you to design forms in excel.
