I have been struggling with termux on Android 13 pixel 6 pro. Whenever I edit a picture with ffmpeg, it's invisible to the normal Photos app.

  Termux uses a sandboxed file system by default, but you can give it access to the rest of the phone's shared files by running `termux-setup-storage` from within Termux (more details at: https://wiki.termux.com/wiki/Termux-setup-storage https://wiki.termux.com/wiki/Termux-setup-storage). That'll mount a new folder called "storage" in your home directory where you can place files in locations where other apps can see them.

    I have done that, the files are created in their normal locations where the rest of the photos are. But the files created by ffmpeg don't have the execute x permission bit set and I think because of that they're invisible in the photos app.

      Forgive the possibly obvious question, but have you tried `chmod +x` ing the ffmpeg output files with termux?

        Yes, it returns successfully but the x bit is not set

    That doesn't work any more in modern Android, unless SAF is used for communication between applications to access private data.
