自定义相机应用中的录像机实现的Android Force Close问题

Question

I am developing an Android Custom Camera app and trying to implement the video recorder feature in it. And I am using the below code

    private boolean prepareMediaRecorder()
    {
        myCamera = getCameraInstance();
        mediaRecorder = new MediaRecorder();
        myCamera.unlock();
        mediaRecorder.setCamera(myCamera);
        mediaRecorder.setAudioSource(MediaRecorder.AudioSource.CAMCORDER);
        mediaRecorder.setVideoSource(MediaRecorder.VideoSource.CAMERA);
        mediaRecorder.setProfile(CamcorderProfile.get(CamcorderProfile.QUALITY_HIGH));
        mediaRecorder.setPreviewDisplay(myCameraSurfaceView.getHolder().getSurface());
        try 
        {
            File newFile = File.createTempFile("videocapture", ".mp4", Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory());
            sendBroadcast(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MEDIA_MOUNTED, Uri.parse("file://"+ Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory())));
            mediaRecorder.setOutputFile(newFile.getAbsolutePath());     
        } 
        catch (IOException e)
        {
            e.printStackTrace();
            finish();
        }
        try 
        {
            mediaRecorder.prepare();
        }
        catch (IllegalStateException e)
        {
            releaseMediaRecorder();
            return false;
        }
        catch (IOException e)
        {
            releaseMediaRecorder();
            return false;
        }
        return true;
    }

But if i use the same code and run it on Galaxy tab, i get a force close at this location of code

             mediaRecorder.start();

And the error log looks like this.

The code works just fine on the same, when i change

   mediaRecorder.setProfile(CamcorderProfile.get(CamcorderProfile.QUALITY_HIGH));

to

   mediaRecorder.setProfile(CamcorderProfile.get(CamcorderProfile.QUALITY_LOW));

Not getting why is it so. Please Help! Thanks!

Answer 1

You should check whether the profile exists. I think for tab it is not supported. You can try that with hasprofile
