Then you have to recursively batch rename *.jpg to *.jpg.tile which unfortunately is ridiculously obscure. But then you can just drop the directory hierarchy into OsmAnd's tiles folder and it works fine without generating sqlite - a directory hierarchy is how OsmAnd caches online tile sources. Back when QGIS needed the QTiles plugin, I wrote a couple of suggestions on recursive renaming in this post <https://groups.google.com/d/msg/osmand/bG1SGGNYxYI/GHvZk7wUCQAJ>. One advantage of this approach is that if you later want to save space on your device, you can just delete a subdirectory to sacrifice a zoom level. It's so tantalising! If OsmAnd could recognise tiles called *.jpg as well as *.jpg.tile then QGIS would be an all-in-one user-friendly solution. The problem would also be solved if QGIS would allow us to specify the filename extension when generating tiles. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "OsmAnd" group.
