Camera of any emulator not working

Friends

I am facing this issue since so long but i am able to get any kind of solution to get working camera in emulator. I have gone through all the answer of the SO but none helped me uptill now.

If i create any emulator with any api but in none of my emulator camera application does not work. So i am not able to test any of the application which contains camera functionality. I guess may be its happening because of the hardware configuration of my system. But i am not sure about it.

I do not know why this issue occurs. Please help me to solve and find out the reason for the issue.

Here is the error which i get whenever i starts camera in emulator.
