I would like to allow the user to pick either an image or a video using the Gallery application launched with an ACTION_PICK or ACTION_GET_CONTENT intent.
The Intent.setType(String) method allows me to set a MIME type for the user to pick from. I can either set the MIME type to "image/*" or "video/*", but not both at the same time. Just for the hell of it, I tried various strings combining the two with the setType() method, but nothing seems to work. Constructing the intent with the action and a URI works as long as the URI is pointing to either "content://media/external/images/media/" or "content://media/external/videos/media/" Again, I can't set up the intent to direct Gallery to look in both locations. Passing a URI pointing to "content://media/external/" launches the Gallery but displays no items. I've also attempted to launch Gallery without a data URI or MIME type set, but have been unsuccessful. Is it possible to launch Gallery from an activity allowing the user to pick either an image or a video and have the result returned to my onActivityResult()? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
