Using CompositionTarget.SurfaceContentsLost Event in UWP for managing RenderTargetBitmap?

I was reading up on RenderTargetBitmap for a bug in one of my UWPs where a captured image wasn't displaying correctly. Came across a remark from Microsoft stating RenderTargetBitmap can lose data for some reason or another and that we should be attempting to render the bitmap a second time using CompositionTarget.SurfaceContentsLost event. But I haven't been able to find an example of this event online. And I can't seem to request feedback from Microsoft at this time on their Knowledge base site. Does anyone have some sample code they would be willing to share?
Thank you.
But I haven't been able to find an example of this event online.
There's a ImageSourceUpdateRegion sample in Win2D-UWP-Samples. It registers the CompositionTarget.SurfaceContentsLost event in UserControl_Loaded. You could check this sample to learn how to use this event for your UWP app.

Need ability to get extra attributes for DJIMediaFile: QuickShot type(if taken video with it), timelapse series, AEB series

Hi DJI SDK developer team. My team and I requested a few times such needed information.
Please help us and include following meta to next SDK builds:
We need to know series of shots for Timelapse shooting, AEB shooting. So in our grid of taken photos, we can group them as one item.
Also, we want to show Rocket, Helix, Boomerang, Asteroid, etc. icons on our files grid too.
P.S. Now we already have DJI Pro membership, but the button for support doesn't work.
Thank you for the feedback. I've send this to the proper channel.
The best way to send feature requests or report issues is to email dev#dji.com or use the support through the User Center in developer.dji.com.

Screenshots are not updated on G Suite Marketplace

I changed my app listing screenshots on the Chrome Web Store Developer Dashboard but the listing has not changed, even worse, it kept the links to the old screenshots and none of them was found (404 status codes).
This is the listing and you can see the 'not found' pictures: Listing on G Suite Marketplace.
Anyone can help please?
Make sure to follow the image size guidelines for screenshots:
Screenshots
You must provide at least one screenshot of your application and you can provide >up to a maximum of five screenshots.
If your app supports multiple locales, you can provide locale-specific
screenshots. Your screenshot should have square corners and no padding
(full bleed).
Screenshots should be 1280x800 pixels in size. If necessary,
screenshots 640x400 pixels in size can be used.
Please note that some images are taken from the Chrome Web Store listing while others are taken from the Cloud Console's Google Apps Marketplace SDK.
As mentioned a comment. Meanwhile I opened a ticket with the support. They sent me a couple of mails. After a day the pictures were propagated to G Suite Marketplace listing. I don't know if it was solved in response to my ticket or if it just need time but it is still an issue because the pictures were invisible for a whole day. I'm not changing them anytime soon though.

windows phone push notification on tiles

i would like the app that i have created on wp7 to display alerts on the live tiles. I was going to use push notifications to do this. So, whenever there is an alert, the app will produce a push notification and then the live tile would display the push notification alert. I have tried to find sample codes on msdn and i have not found much. Does anyone know any code sample for wp7 that would help.thank you!
MSDN has extensive howto articles and sample code; there is even a How to: Send and Receive Tile Notifications for Windows Phone which sounds like it should do what you need.
This may be of help to you: Windows Phone 7 notifications. I went to a Windows Phone camp and came away feeling that there are, in fact, very distinct notifications and you have to make sure you're working with the right type for the right job. That link covers the types and their purposes, but did want to give you a heads up on that.

Programmatically change the tile on WP7 device

I'm making an app where I would like to generate a new tile from inside the app, and then change it - no web service involved, and no need to change it when the app is not running.
Anyone know how to do this?
Cheers!
as #Derek said, you can update the tile using the tile schedule, but will take an hour minimum before the phone updates the tile.
i have written a tutorial on how to update the tile instantly here:
http://www.diaryofaninja.com/blog/2011/04/03/windows-phone-7-live-tile-schedules-ndash-executing-instant-live-tile-updates
basically it involves opening a push/toast update channel and then getting the phone to send "itself" a live tile update request. this will trigger the phone to go and get the tile "right now"
hope this helps
You can update the background image for a Live tile by using the ShellTileSchedule as documented in How to: Update Your Tile Without Push Notifications for Windows Phone. However, the image that is used for that background must come from a remote location, it cannot be provided directly by your application (unless you generate the image and send it to your own web service).
If you do go down the Microsoft Push Notification Services route, you may want to take a look at the Windows Push Notification Server Side Helper Library provided by the Windows Phone team.
You can generate and send a tile push notification message from the applicaiton itself. Not sure if it will work with an image in the app though. - Let us know if you try.
Thanks for the info!
It won't be an image from the app, as the xml files I'm downloading are pointing to the correct image. Not sure about the format, but I guess setting up my own server to proxy the request and resize the icon as needed wouldn't be too hard.
But it's really sad we cannot manipulate the tile image for 'this' from within our own app...
