openImageGallery, need support for video files

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Per my email thread with Shai...

I'm using Display.openImageGallery to select files for upload.   Currently, it 
only allows selecting image files, but it would work very well if I also could 
pick video files as well.  

Display.getInstance().openImageGallery(new ActionListener() {
            public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent evt) {
                if (evt != null) {
                    String filename = (String) evt.getSource();
                    .......
                }
            }
        });

Thanks,
Josh

I'd define it that the gallery API should probably be generalized to provide 
something like: image, image & video, video. Possibly also the ability to save 
the image to the gallery.
Chen, can you evaluate?

Hello, 
Just checking in to see if this enhancement is viable.   My app is done, aside 
from this one item, so I'm not sure if I should continue holding or release 
without it.

Thanks,
Josh

Hi,
It does seems like a viable enhancement, I will try to squeeze this feature in 
the weekend

First test was successful. 
I'm deploying to Mac/OSX as well as tablets, so it would be great if you could 
include all of these file types for the video gallery.

.mov
.scmov
.gbmov
.f4v
.mp4
.m2ts
.mts
.ts
.wmv
.vob
.m4v
.flv
.mod
.mkv
.avi
.mpg
.3gp

Currently only...
model.addExtensionFilter("mp4");
model.addExtensionFilter("3pg");
model.addExtensionFilter("avi");
model.addExtensionFilter("mov");

Testing on android work as well, but it takes 20 seconds or more to pull up the 
gallery.

I have added the video extensions that you requested here.  SVN rev 2200.  
They'll be included in the next update.
