    Hello, the .nomedia file is empty and is just there to indicate to Android not to scan this folder as it does not contain any music/videos that should end up in the Photo Gallery or in the Videos.

      Ah, strange, normally it’s just an empty file... I guess the .nomedia extension is used here to hide each file individually, let's rename the file and remove the .nomedia from the filename, they must be normal .jpg files after all...
