Problem with ->acceptedFileTypes() in Filament 4

Hello,

I have the following I a schema in filament 4:

FileUpload::make('video_file')
                    ->required()
                    ->label('Video File')
                    ->multiple()
                    ->disk('private')
                    ->directory('')
                    ->acceptedFileTypes(['mp4', 'mov', 'avi', 'mkv', 'wmv'])
                    ->maxSize(2097152),

Whenever I tried to load an .mp4 file I got a an error in the form (not yet submitted): File of invalid type. Expects mp4, mov etc etc.

Thinking it was a bad file I tried with 7-8 files. All of them the same problem.

Thanks, Simon

Fixed myself with

->acceptedFileTypes([
    'video/mp4',
    'video/quicktime', // for .mov files
    'video/x-msvideo', // for .avi files
    'video/x-matroska', // for .mkv files
    'video/x-ms-wmv', // for .wmv files
])

->acceptedFileTypes(...) accepts an array of MIME types, not file extensions.

If you want to accept only videos, it should be:

->acceptedFileTypes( [ 'video/*' ] )

If you need to specify extensions, take a look at mimeTypeMap() method: https://filamentphp.com/docs/4.x/forms/file-upload#custom-mime-type-mapping
