Delphi 12: How to Select an Existing Video from Photos in the FireMonkey iOS App?

[Vanar 2]

Tell me, is there an implementation of video selection for iOS?
For example, like selecting images by ActionTakePhotoFromLibrary or TOpenDialog.

Good afternoon

Unfortunately, this only works for Android.

It works on Android and iOS.

That comment is from 3 years ago, and the implementation has changed since then

Good afternoon!

 

In the example  https://github.com/DelphiWorlds/Kastri/tree/master/Demos/FilesSelector You can’t catch the choice of video file!

 

As I said, I need to select videos for iOS

 

constructor TForm1.Create(AOwner: TComponent);
begin
  FSelector := TFilesSelector.Create;
  FSelector.Title := 'Select a file';
  FSelector.OnComplete := SelectorCompleteHandler;
End;

 

I do this:

 

FSelector.FileKinds := [TFileKind.Photo]; // Only in this case do I see the video in the list
FSelector.Select(TSelectionMode.Content);

 

And for the case [TFileKind.Photo] there is no handler in SelectorCompleteHandler. I can't determine which video I selected, I can't determine the file name.
That's the problem!

I need to understand: what did I choose!

For photos, it's via SelectorImageStreamHandler. Videos are yet to be supported - thanks for the reminder 🙂

 

Edit: I've opened this issue in Kastri.
