Joe Bowser resolved CB-8103.
----------------------------
Resolution: Not A Problem
This appears to be working correctly based on what [~iclelland] just wrote. I'm going to close this for now, and we'll revisit it later.

> -----------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CB-8103
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-8103
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Android, Plugin File
> Affects Versions: 3.6.3
> Reporter: W. Matthew Wilson
>
> I have a feature in my app where a user can pick a video from their gallery and then upload it to a remote server.
> I need the mime type of the file because right now, I can only process .mp4 files, not .3gp files.
> I'm using something like this code:
> {code}
> window.resolveLocalFileSystemURL(
> local_video_path, // something like "/media/external/video/media/971"
> function (f) {
> console.debug("inside resolveLocalFileSystemURL callback", f);
> f.file(function (fo) {
> console.debug("fo", fo);
> if (fo.size > 30 * 1000 * 1000) {
> navigator.notification.alert("Sorry, that file is too big! Pick one less than 30 mb.");
> } else if (fo.type == "video/3gpp") {
> navigator.notification.alert("Sorry, that file is a .3gp file and we can't handle those!");
> } else {
> // handle file...
> }
> });
> {code}
> And when I pick a file that ends with .mp4, in the file(...) function callback the mime type is set to 3gpp:
> {code}
> inside resolveLocalFileSystemURL callback
> FileEntry {isFile: true, isDirectory: false, name: "971", fullPath: "/media/external/video/media/971", filesystem: FileSystem…}
> filesystem: FileSystem
> fullPath: "/media/external/video/media/971"
> isDirectory: false
> isFile: true
> name: "971"
> nativeURL: "file:///storage/emulated/0/DCIM/Camera/20141117_122122.mp4"
> __proto__: utils.extend.F
> phonegapsend.js:818
> fo
> File {name: "content", localURL: "content://media/external/video/media/971", type: "video/3gpp", lastModified: 1416244890, lastModifiedDate: 1416244890…}
> end: 16515092
> lastModified: 1416244890
> lastModifiedDate: 1416244890
> localURL: "content://media/external/video/media/971"
> name: "content"
> size: 16515092
> start: 0
> type: "video/3gpp"
> __proto__: Object
> {code}
> That's not a very pretty example, but I do resolveLocalFileSystem on a file "/media/external/video/media/971", and the native URL for that file is "file:///storage/emulated/0/DCIM/Camera/20141117_122122.mp4".
> Then I use the file(...) method to look up the size and the type of that file, I get told that the type is "video/3gpp". That doesn't make sense to me!
> Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug?
> Let me know if there is more information I should provide.
> Go PhoneGap!
