General :: Record Video Via MediaRecorder?

Apr 12, 2012

I have a question regarding the Android MediaRecorder -

My test device
HTC Desire HD
Firmware 2.3.5

I want to write an app, which records a video. This should be implementet via the MediaRecorder (not via Intents). On the Google-Developers site I found a "tutorial" [URL]

My problem:

I followed the whole tutorial. When I'm starting my application on my test device it throws an exception ("start failed") at recorder.start() if I set the quality to high (CamcorderProfile.QUALITY_HIGH). If I change the setting to QUALITY_LOW the app starts recording for 1-2 seconds. After that the screen freezes and my LogCat tracks the following errors:

media server died!
camera server died
ICamera died

I also get ERROR 100

Android :: Video With MediaRecorder

May 6, 2009

Does anyone know how to use the MediaRecorder to API to capture video?

I am writing an application where I want to be able to capture video. I am trying to use the MediaRecorder API in 1.5, which is supposed to support video capture. However, there are no examples in the documentation on how to use this API for video (only for audio, and that works perfect). Basically what I do is the following:

CODE:...............

This gives me the following error: E/CameraInput( 37): No surface is available for display E/MediaRecorder( 7609): prepare failed: -2147483648

OK, so I have to have a surface to preview the video? Could be useful I guess, but not something I really need.

Could I use the VideoView widget for this, or is that only for playback?

Or am I supposed to use a SurfaceView to preview the video? I saw someone use that to capture images, but they used android.hardware.Camera to open the camera and capture a frame, and did not use MediaRecorder.

HOw to capture video, or even better have some example code?

Android :: MediaRecorder Buffers 1 Second Of Video

Aug 30, 2010

I'm using MediaRecorder.setOutputFile(FileDescriptor fd) over a UNIX socket, so that local code on the device can see the encoded stream in real time (for video streaming out).

What I observed is that the encoder doesn't write encoded frames continuously, when they are produced, but by "bursts", exactly one second apart. I tried both containers (THREE_GPP and MPEG_4) and all three available codecs (MPEG_4_SP, H263, H264), the behavior is always the same. This one-second period is notably unrelated to framerate or bitrate, so it is not flushing by size; rather, it seems to be flushing by time (possibly to mask SD card write overheads ? Bummer, I 'm not using the SD here !). Is it a known limitation ? Is there a known workaround ?

General :: Record Video While Running Other App?

May 30, 2012

I just got my new galaxy note (i717) on friday (immediately flashing it with OnlyOne beta 2 (ics)) and I would like to use it for a bit of podcasting using the front camera to record myself while I read text from some teleprompter software.

I can record video from the front camera just fine, and it actually comes out a bit higher quality than I expected even, but for the life of me, when i hit the record button and then switch away from the camera app to the prompter app, it gives me an audio notification that the camera has stopped recording.

is there prompter software that has an integrated video recorder? (that'd be pretty sweet imho) or better, some way to record video while another app (that's not particularly resource intensive) is in use? - I don't mind trimming and cutting the video together (there are actually some pretty decent editing tools for android i've found) but I can't figure out a way to record and prompt at the same time...

General :: Is It Possible To Screen-record Own App To Video In Android

Apr 14, 2014

any easy way to record the activities and views on my Android app to a video without root access. To be a bit more specific, I am looking for a screen-recording solution so that I can get a video of the user's interaction with the app interface. Connecting the phone to any device such as a computer to do the recording is not an option.

Here is a sample gif that I created using a Mac screen recorder to record the iOS simulator interface. It gives a rough idea of what I would like to achieve on Android, except for the fact that I would like the same to be from the actual phone (not the emulator) and without having to connect the phone to a computer or any other device.

General :: How To Record Video Using YIFY Method

Jun 25, 2013

I've been looking for some torrent films, and I have seen some users saying "Want YIFY", "when YIFY?". So on google I have searched for the meaning of YIFY and I have figured out that movies longer than 1.5hrs in 1080p had a size of 1gb approximately. But when I record 10 minutes video it takes 1gb.

My questions are, how to record video using the YIFY method? Do I have to go in root files and change the camera profile file?

Is it possible to record out in *.mkv format with low bitrate? Or any alternative to?

In clear, how to record 1080p videos with the smallest size possible?

Android :: Android: How To Initialize MediaRecorder Without A Valid Surface For Video Preview

Aug 9, 2009

I am building a camera app, where videos are continuously being captured and saved to the SD card. The videos are short (few minutes), and their length are preset with setMaxDuration().

The whole process works fine, while the main activity is in the foreground. But, when I go to another activity (e.g. settings), the video recording works in the background only until max duration is reached. The file is saved, but a new sequence can not be started
because prepare() fails, apparently because setPreviewDisplay() doesn't like not having a proper surface to attach to.

I tried to use a dummy Surface, a dummy SurfaceHolder, lockCanvas(), and various other tricks, but nothing works. Is there a way to initialize MediaRecorder without a valid surface?
