Add motion photo support boxes #62

Open csm10495 opened 9 months ago

Google, Samsung, and Apple all have their own version of motion photos.

Can we add if the clients support viewing each of these versions properly?

One of the cool things about Google Camera and Google Photos is that when I take a picture, I get a short video of the photo being taken, embedded in the photo. I'd want to be able to optionally see this video in my new photo library.

I've considered this but haven't found a good way to break it out without having to include additional 'features'. This could lead down a rabbit hole since we could also show various OS support for desktop apps, various video codecs supported, types of face/object recognition, and different authentication providers.

While these are all valid 'features', it's a LOT of effort to test each photo library and keep the list up to date with all of those features, and it may clutter the table more than i would like.

I'll keep this issue around as a potential future improvement when i have more time/resources for keeping such an expanded list up to date.
