Recording video in Android should be relatively simple. Or so I thought.
But after having wasted several days on trying to get it working, I would
like to see if anybody can understand what is wrong with my code.
This is the essential part of the relevant code (requiring Android 2.2 or
later):
camera = Camera.open();
camera.setPreviewDisplay(holder);
camera.startPreview();
mRecorder = new MediaRecorder();
camera.unlock();
mRecorder.setCamera(camera);
mRecorder.setAudioSource(MediaRecorder.AudioSource.CAMCORDER);
mRecorder.setVideoSource(MediaRecorder.VideoSource.CAMERA);
mRecorder.setProfile(CamcorderProfile.get(CamcorderProfile.QUALITY_HIGH));
mRecorder.setMaxDuration(1000*60*20); // 20 minutes
videoFile = new File("/mnt/sdcard/xx/" + "XXX" + ".mp4");
mFileName = videoFile.toString();
mRecorder.setOutputFile(mFileName);
mRecorder.setMaxFileSize(1024*1024); // Max 1 MB
mRecorder.setOnInfoListener (this);
mRecorder.setOnErrorListener(this);
mRecorder.setPreviewDisplay(holder.getSurface()); // ???
try
{
mRecorder.prepare();
mRecorder.start();
}
The preview is showing properly at the screen.
The code seems to fail at the last line, when trying to start the video
recorder.
The most important lines of the debug log (from a Sony Ericsson device,
running Android 2.3.4) seem to be the following, which occur when the
attempt is made to start the recorder:

This is more of the log, in case that could be important:
