    I've used the demo apk, and it left me with one question, is it possible to not rotate pictures 90 degrees when cropping them?

    No, this feature is not there in the plugin, you have to rotate it by yourself.

    Hello,

    This will happen if plugin is not properly imported or deleted some files accidentally or if you are not testing on actual android device.

    So please write me at devesh.pandey19@gmail.com with steps to reproduce, I will try to solve it asap.

    Hello Sandeep,

    Your email was in spam therefore I missed it. Sorry for that.

    You will get image rotation with each picked image, then you can rotate it in original position or as you want.

    Here are some useful steps to rotate image
    1). You have to rotate texture by yourself by using image rotation received with picked image, so search code for rotating texture in unity.
    2). Don't subscribe OnImageLoad function, only subscribe OnImageSelect
    3). You will get path of the picked image with image orientation in OnImageSelect function, load texture from the path to your texture.
    Texture2D texture = new Texture2D(8,8);
    texture.LoadImage(System.IO.File.ReadAllBytes(imgPath));
    5). Rotate the received texture by using image rotation.

    Note : OnImageLoad will give you non-readable texture therefore you will not be able to modify it, this is done to prevent memory leaks on iOS. If you want to modify the texture then use steps mentioned above.

    Dear users of ImageAndVideoPicker plugin, I am getting many request of the same issue like

    Error:-
    myappname[1345:476415] [discovery] errors encountered while discovering extensions: Error Domain=PlugInKit Code=13 "query cancelled" UserInfo={
    NSLocalizedDescription=query cancelled}


    Cause:-

    I figured out that many users trying to modify/readbytes/readpixels of the received texture in OnImageLoad, which is not permissible due to memory issues in iOS. Texture (tex) received in OnImageLoad is only for displaying somewhere for preview, because its non-readable texture so you can't read the pixels of this texture.

    Solution :-

    1). Don't subscribe OnImageLoad function, only subscribe OnImageSelect
    2). You will get path of the picked image with image orientation in OnImageSelect function, load texture from the path to your texture.
    Texture2D texture = new Texture2D(8,8);
    texture.LoadImage(System.IO.File.ReadAllBytes(imgPath));

    then modify your texture as you want.

    Hello Sir,

    I am using "ImageAndVideoPicker" and facing many problems.The orientation was not correct in the Android and you send me updated .Jar file, after replacing this file the orientation is fine in android.But, now I am facing same problem in iPhone as well as in iPad. I am attaching the screenshots along with this message for your clarification.Kindly provide the appropriate solution.Moreover, I am surprised why the crop box does not appear in iPad as I tested on below two iOS versions and devices but appears fine on iPhone on every iOS versions(as I tested on 4-5 different devices with different iOS versions).

    1. iPad mini having iOS 10.0.2
    2. iPad 3 having iOS 9.3.5

    If anyone else faced the same problem and have some solution, kindly share with me.
    Hope you revert soon with appropriate solution.

    Thanks

    Is it possible to get the texture if I give the path of image instead of showing the native gallery and select from there.
    For example I've list of path in my device where I know the image exist so if i pass the path to your plugin will it give me the texture.
    I know i can do that with www or file.readallbyte but I'm facing the cache issue and application stuck whenever i try to do that.
