Hi All,

How can get all videos stored in the phone?

I got a little progress:

const options: CameraOptions = {
quality: 100,
sourceType : this.camera.PictureSourceType.PHOTOLIBRARY,
destinationType: this.camera.DestinationType.DATA_URL,
encodingType: this.camera.EncodingType.JPEG,
mediaType: this.camera.MediaType.VIDEO
}

    this.camera.getPicture(options).then((imageData) => {
        // imageData is either a base64 encoded string or a file URI
        // If it's base64:
        //let base64Image = 'data:image/jpeg;base64,' + imageData;
        
        console.log('video data is '+imageData);
    }, (err) => {
        // Handle error
    });

I can use above code to choose one video, but it does not allow play it before select it, it is not that good, so I need to implement myself select UI with preview(play).

But how can I return the video list in the device???

any ideas ,thanks.
