One of the alternative app stores is asking for unaltered, unedited capture from the app as a video. Plus I'm also interested in cleaner video than I get by focusing a camcorder on an Android on a table. Who knows how to do that? I think I found some posts that indicate Mark Murphy may have solved this with a tool that goes through DDMS. If so, I'll get that tool and donate.

Is there an app to capture video when watching let's say YouTube or any video? Was looking for something like that so I could capture my baby boys face as he watches videos .
View 2 Replies View RelatedI would like to create a video recorder and so far haven't figured out how to set parameters in order to successfully go through MediaRecorder.prepare() method. Executing the following method
public void start() throws IOException{
String state = android.os.Environment.getExternalStorageState();
if(!state.equals(Environment.MEDIA_MOUNTED))
{
throw new IOException("SD card is not mounted. It is " + state + ".");
}
File directory = new File(path).getParentFile();
if(!directory.exists() && !directory.mkdirs())
{
throw new IOException("Path to file could not be created.");
}
recorder.setVideoSource(MediaRecorder.VideoSource.CAMERA);
recorder.setOutputFormat(MediaRecorder.OutputFormat.THREE_GPP);
recorder.setVideoEncoder(MediaRecorder.VideoEncoder.H263);
recorder.setVideoFrameRate(15);
recorder.setVideoSize(176, 144);
recorder.setOutputFile(path);
recorder.prepare();
recorder.start();
this.state = VideoRecorderState.STATE_RECORDING;
}
it throws an exception on line recorder.prepare(). Does anyone know how to set parameters in order to be able to capture video?
I would like to be able to capture the video from an android phone camera, and then process this video. Processing involves adding a layer of AR to the live stream. Is this possible on android? Pretty sure it should be. I have looked at the android site [http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/media/index.html] but this seems to be concerned with video capture and storage. I would like to be able to play with the video pre-storage.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if anyone knows of a tutorial explaining how to capture the video from the camera on an Android device and then display the video in real time on the screen? I have looked up MediaRecorder, MediaPlayer, Videoview but they all seem concerned with recording audio/video to a file or playing audio/video from a file or a URL. I simply want to be able to take the data from what the camera is seeing and display it on the screen.
View 1 Replies View RelatedDoes anyone knows some convinient method to capture video from OpenGL app on Android device? For example can we capture video from a view, opengl view? I just stopped on: 1) We can get frames using glReadPixels. (No video on this step?) 2) MediaRecorder can encode video, but how can we provide it our raw source, if possible? 3) Any working ports of ffmpeg(for example) or other encoding library? There are some tutorials of portng ffmpeg to use withing NDK. So, having raw frames and working port of ffmeg we can create video? Any issues on this step? Anyone managed to port any encoding library successfully?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI used to have the iphone 3gs, but now i have a Samsung Galaxy with Android 2.1.
I had a great program called Air Video, it was so great, i almost chose not to upgrade to android cause it wasnt on the Andriod platform.
You installed a client on the phone, and a transcode server software on your pc, and then the magic began, you could stream any kind of video format straight from your PC to your phone in realtime. It supported mkv, divx and a whole lot of other formats. I could even stream video from my satelite tuner straight to my phone with this software. It was totaly mindblowing, and it worked both on 3g and over wifi, you just adjusted the quality of the stream in the client program on the phone. I could lay in bed, and watch my whole video archive straight from my pc on my phone, i could watch it from work and anywhere with 3g coverage.
The great thing about this program, was that everything was on the fly, and went automaticly, you didnt have to convert EVERY video file to mp4 (or simular) before you started streaming.
I need to make a video as a DEMO for one application I have developed. I know that there are some experimental applications that use DDMS and achieve a framerate of 5-6 fps. This framerate is completely insufficient for my purposes since the application has smooth animations that i would like to show. Is there anyone that has found a way to do a real time screen capture on android? Should I settle for a capture of the emulator or a real video done with a real camera?

View 49 Replies View Relatedafter updating (the official update) my HTC Desire to Froyo 2.2 I cannot capture any Video (any resolution). It happens that I press the trackball and the timer (on the upper-right corner) disappears and nothing works anymore (menu, etc...), only the Home button allow me to go back to the home panel. After doing that, the battery die in a few minutes and the phone is very slow: i.e. some video camera service is still up and running and consuming battery.

Just would like to hear your idea about that...I recently have seen the Samsung Galaxy S and , well, was really impressed about that! Then I have seen the new HTC Desire and heard good rumors about that. So, I was wondering, which one would you take as an alternative to the i Phone 4G? I have seen some price alternatives for Samsung Contract Mobile Phones galaxy s: compare models and prices contract mobile phones galaxy s. - Choppy Doo and HTC Contract Mobile Phones htc desire: compare models and prices contract mobile phones htc desire. - Choppy Doo What would you take if you were in my shoes?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI just picked up the Motorola Droid, and I'm loving it.I'm trying to find the best free alternative to SMS (because it's ridiculous that after paying $30/mo for 3G access, I have to pay more to move 100-character messages around on the same network...).Ideal would be something like BlackBerry Messenger.So far, I've been using gTalk with my status set to invisible, and that seems to be a pretty good alternative. When I initiate a gTalk conversation with an invisible status, the conversation usually remains short - like an SMS conversation. One downside is that people never initiate conversations on gTalk with me while I'm set to invisible.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI see posts saying that FrameLayout is the alternative, and that I should use margins to position things (this strikes me as wildly counter intuitive, but ok... if it works, I'll take it). However, I can't get it to work, so, I'm looking for assistance. I'm aware of the fact that this may mean different things on different devices. I'm ok with that. I simply need a way to, programatically, and at run time, place an item at a SPECIFIC location. I don't want to rely on gravity (or the laws of thermodynamics). I just want to specify a location and have the element appear there :)
