android上捕获视频的最长持续时间

Question

I have code for capturing a video clip on Android:

Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_VIDEO_CAPTURE);
intent.putExtra("android.intent.extra.durationLimit", 30000);
intent.putExtra("EXTRA_VIDEO_QUALITY", 0);
startActivityForResult(intent, ActivityRequests.REQUEST_TAKE_VIDEO);

This code works well on API 2.2, but the duration limit does not work on API 2.1 (Galaxy S). Is there some constant or parameter for setting this time, or is there a better approach than the one I am taking?

I ask because I found another application that works on the Galaxy S (called Vibrant ) which can record video for a short amount of time.

Answer 1

android.intent.extra.durationLimit was introduced in API Level 8, so it's not available in Eclair and earlier, unfortunately. Some device manufacturers may have a proprietary way to set the maximum duration on older devices, which explain why you have seen this working on some pre-Froyo applications.

Answer 2

For your information it does not run on HTC devices. welcome to the android world.
