I'd like to handle a file extention (.m3u8) which has no registered MIME mapping for the extention, when the file is opened in a file manager/explorer. But no matter what I try, the file managers I tried aren't able to open the file with my app. Is this something that is generally impossible in Android, are the file managers poorly programmed, or am I doing something wrong?
This is my current state in manifest.xml: <intent-filter> <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" /> <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" /> <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" /> <data android:scheme="file" /> <data android:host="*" /> <data android:mimeType="*/*" /> <data android:pathPattern=".*\\.m3u8" /> </intent-filter> I also tried without BROWSABLE and/or host, because I thought that might be only for browser downloads, but it didn't change anything. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
