External files cannot be accessed on Android 13 about familygem

You are right. I missed this change on Android 13.
I will fix this bug for the next release (version 0.9.2).
I wrote a FAQ about that, with a possible workaround.

@tobikster are you still available to create a fix?

It should be:

• add READ_MEDIA_IMAGES READ_MEDIA_VIDEO READ_MEDIA_AUDIO in the manifest
• check/request these permissions at once where needed in MediaFoldersActivity and F

At once I mean that a Media could virtually contain any kind of file, not only images.

[tobikster]

Sure. I started preparing some fix, but I abandoned it when you assigned this issue to yourself 🙂.
I can resume this work and prepare a PR.

[michelesalvador]

Thank you!
Sorry because I changed my mind.

[tobikster]

No problem 🙂

Now I understand why you refers to MediaFoldersActivity — my changes based on the version before the translation 😄

Fortunately, they weren't big, so it was easy to apply the fixes again in the new files.

I noticed, that the permissions check before importing the GEDCOM file was removed with the changes to code translation.
This is the same as I noticed — it looks like in this case no permission is required.
So, I made the changes only in the media cases: while attaching a media to a person and selecting media folders.

Good job. Thank you!

the permissions check before importing the GEDCOM file was removed

Yes, the permissions check is actually not needed with ACTION_GET_CONTENT.
