I have a problem in recording a call I have made a service and called a BroadcastReceiver to get the call state. In TelephonyManager.EXTRA_STATE_OFFHOOK when the call is received. I am using following code to record the call recorder.setAudioSource(MediaRecorder.AudioSource.MIC); recorder.setOutputFormat(MediaRecorder.OutputFormat.DEFAULT); recorder.setAudioEncoder(MediaRecorder.AudioEncoder.DEFAULT); recorder.setOutputFile(audiofile.getAbsolutePath()); try { recorder.prepare(); recorder.start(); } catch (IllegalStateException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } catch (IOException e) { e

I am developing an app to record video. I got this code in my App which is running fine in Nexus 4 and Sony Ericsson mini pro, but when I test in other devices, like Archos 80G9 and Jiayu G3ST, the app gives me the following error "MediaRecorder start failed -19" or sometimes "camera error 100 ". I tried implementing some changes suggested in other stackoverflow posts but the error still appears. private boolean prepareVideoRecorder() { /** ADDED Sony Ericsson Stoped */ try { mCamera.setPreviewDisplay(null); } catch (java.io.IOException ioe) { Log.d(TAG, "IOException nullifying preview display

My MediaRecorder is setup to record audio from the mic. This works ... except that the first .65 seconds is completely dead air - its as if the first .65 second the record button was pressed but the mic had not turned on yet. I need to determine if: Something is wrong with my code This is just a flaw in the way MediaRecorder works 1 and 2 are true, but there is a work around! Jason Van Anden RehersalAudioRecord contains some very well written code for recording in uncompressed WAV format. Using this, recordings do not have the dead air at the beginning. This class leverages AudioRecord, which

Can someone please share with me a RELIABLE way to record audio across all devices using MediaRecorder? I'm simply trying to record a low-bitrate AMR format audio file, which according to google is standard across all devices. That's a bunch of crap. In my experience, there are many off-brand devices, tablets, etc. that will fail horribly when you use the default AudioEncoder.AMR_NB. My workaround is currently to use reflection to poll what encoders are in the superclass, then looping through each one with an errorlistener to see which one doesn't fail. Not only is this not graceful, but it

Can android MediaRecorder capture video with resolution higher than 320*240 ? When I used MediaRecorder::setVideoSize() to set the video size, the captured video were all at the resolution of 320*240 . Whats even worse, the higher ones can not get a clear video, they were somehow greenish. (encoder used is h263 , format is mpeg4 ) Android version used here is 1.6 Could you please anyone help me out? I had an issue similar to what is described here. I turned out that I had to restructure my code slightly before I could adjust the video size. The important thing is that setVideoSize() is called
