[BUG] video type video/quicktime breaks compatibility with Chromium based browsers

[mbaran5]

A video with the src set to

<video controls> <source src="attachments/71cba48a-707b-4dee-b494-ba43ef5c0f0c.mov" type="video/quicktime"> </video> will not play in Edge or Chrome.

A video with the src set to

<video controls> <source src="attachments/71cba48a-707b-4dee-b494-ba43ef5c0f0c.mov" </video> play just fine.

From a quick google, this seems to have been or is an issue https://secure.phabricator.com/T13135

That's pesky. Right now that mime_type is parsed from the table. Need to have better logic to handle cases like this.

imessage-exporter/imessage-database/src/tables/attachment.rs

Lines 165 to 184 in a825a2e

	/// Get the media type of an attachment
	pub fn mime_type(&'_ self) -> MediaType<'_> {
	match &self.mime_type {
	Some(mime) => {
	if let Some(mime_str) = mime.split('/').into_iter().next() {
	match mime_str {
	"image" => MediaType::Image(mime),
	"video" => MediaType::Video(mime),
	"audio" => MediaType::Audio(mime),
	"text" => MediaType::Text(mime),
	"application" => MediaType::Application(mime),
	_ => MediaType::Other(mime),
	}
	} else {
	MediaType::Other(mime)
	}
	}
	None => MediaType::Unknown,
	}
	}

I can also confirm this workaround works as well

nextcloud/files_videoplayer#129 (comment)

I've tested this in a conversation of mine.

Really helpful, thank you for the report and the workarounds!

No problemo! This finally lets me get something like 120GB of message content off my phone/iCloud and I can turn on discard after 1 year and still keep my history.
