Joomla upload button on component toolbar

In my custom component, I am using the following code to bring the Media Manager popup:

JToolBarHelper::media_manager('directory', 'Upload');

"directory" obviously sets the default directory that will appear when the button is clicked, which it does, but when I go to upload an image, it uploads to the standard "images" folder rather than images/directory.

I have looked around Google and the majority of pages say that it was a bug in Joomla 1.5 which I assume was fixed in Joomla 2.5. Is there another way to get the default directory working?

media_manager invokes with folder= and the directory you passed. But it expects the path below your images folder.

So if your folder is

/images/uploaddir

you would invoke it with

JToolBarHelper::media_manager('uploaddir', 'Upload');
