Use of relative path instead of absolute path for files in db synced in different devices
I noticed that the sync saves the absolute path of a file (eg: image) so if I use the same db in two different devices (like a samsung galaxy tab and a nexus 7), since different devices use different kind of path (or maybe in a device I keep the db in the internal memory, in another in the external), I can't sync the images on the second device.
For example: I keep images under memento/files/"name of db" folder, but for the samsung the absolute path is sdcard0/memento/files/"name of db" (or emulated/0/memento/files/"name of db"), for a nexus is another; so when I sync the db on the second device memento tries to save the images under sdcard0/memento/files/"name of db" which doesn't exist.

You are the reason. When you change from one mobile to other with different path all of your media are lost.
Please fix this issue. -

I also tried with the same account (so without sharing the db with another account) and in the second device, after the synchronization, the images give me "Decoding Error".
Why?
BTW: it would be nice an edit post here so I don't have to delete it everytime to edit it.
