Android: Let user pick image or video from Gallery
You start the gallery as such:
Intent pickIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, android.provider.MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI);
pickIntent.setType("image/* video/*");
startActivityForResult(pickIntent, IMAGE_PICKER_SELECT);
then in your onActivityResult
you can check if video or image was selected by doing this:
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
Uri selectedMediaUri = data.getData();
if (selectedMediaUri.toString().contains("image")) {
//handle image
} else if (selectedMediaUri.toString().contains("video")) {
//handle video
}
}
Pick Audio file from Gallery:
//Use MediaStore.Audio.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, MediaStore.Audio.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI);
Pick Video file from Gallery:
//Use MediaStore.Audio.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, MediaStore.Video.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI);
Pick Image from gallery:
//Use MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI);
Pick Media Files or images:
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI);
intent.setType("image/* video/*");
