Intent photoPickerIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK); photoPickerIntent.setType("video/*");

Question

I'm attempting to launch the gallery and select a video to play however nothing happens when I click a video within the gallery after it is launched - is there anything else I should add to this code to be able to do so?

Source:

Intent photoPickerIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK);
photoPickerIntent.setType("video/*");
startActivityForResult(photoPickerIntent, SELECT_PHOTO); 

Answer 1

You need to Override onActivityResult

@Override
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
    super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
    if (requestCode == SELECT_PHOTO) {
        if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
            Uri selectedVideo = data.getData();
            // do something. play video using uri
        } 

    }
}

Edit:

Change

ImageButton vb = (ImageButton) findViewById(R.id.video);
    vb.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        public void onClick(View v) {
            Toast.makeText(UI.this, "Video Testimonial", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
            Intent photoPickerIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK);
            photoPickerIntent.setType("video/*");
            startActivityForResult(photoPickerIntent, SELECT_PHOTO);

        }
        public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
            super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
            if (requestCode == SELECT_PHOTO) {
                if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
                    Uri selectedVideoLocation = data.getData();

                    // do something
                }

            }
        }
    });

TO

 ImageButton vb = (ImageButton) findViewById(R.id.video);
    vb.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        public void onClick(View v) {
            Toast.makeText(UI.this, "Video Testimonial", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
            Intent photoPickerIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK);
            photoPickerIntent.setType("video/*");
            startActivityForResult(photoPickerIntent, SELECT_PHOTO);

        }
  });
      public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
            super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
            if (requestCode == SELECT_PHOTO) {
                if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
                    Uri selectedVideoLocation = data.getData();

                    // do something
                }

            }
        }

Edit 2:

@Override
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
    super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
    if (requestCode == 1) {
        if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
            Uri selectedVideo = data.getData();
            Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
            intent.setDataAndType( selectedVideo,"video/*");
            startActivity(intent);

        } 

    }
}
