I'm recording video by using Custom camera on Nexus 7 2012 and get this issue while the other devices, like Zenfone 2, Galaxy S3, S6, HTC One M7, Oppo N1, Sony Xperia M4 ... worked perfectly.
public static boolean prepareVideoRecorder(Context mContext, int mode) {
// Should release before use new Preview for Recording Video mode
CustomCamera.releaseCamera();
// Initialize camera
CustomCamera.mCamera = CustomCamera.getCameraInstance(mode);
CustomCamera.mCamera.startPreview();
// Set orientation display
setCameraDisplayOrientation((Activity) mContext, mode);
// Should release before use new Preview for Recording Video mode
CustomCamera.releaseMediaRecorder();
CustomCamera.mMediaRecorder = new MediaRecorder();
// Step 1: Unlock and set camera to MediaRecorder
CustomCamera.mCamera.unlock();
CustomCamera.mMediaRecorder.setCamera(CustomCamera.mCamera);
// Step 2: Set sources
CustomCamera.mMediaRecorder.setAudioSource(MediaRecorder.AudioSource.CAMCORDER);
CustomCamera.mMediaRecorder.setVideoSource(MediaRecorder.VideoSource.CAMERA);
// Step 3: Set a CamcorderProfile (requires API Level 8 or higher)
// todo NullPointerException: Attempt to read from field 'int android.media.CamcorderProfile.fileFormat' on a null object reference
//
// returned true value, go inside
if (CamcorderProfile.hasProfile(current_camera_id, CamcorderProfile.QUALITY_LOW)) {
// CamcorderProfile.get(CamcorderProfile.QUALITY_LOW) RETURNED NULL VALUE, SO I CAN NOT SET PROFILE
CustomCamera.mMediaRecorder.setProfile(CamcorderProfile.get(CamcorderProfile.QUALITY_LOW));
// Step 4: Set output file - pass False value to indicate choose Video mode
RECORDED_FILE_PATH = getOutputMediaFile(mContext, false).toString();
CustomCamera.mMediaRecorder.setOutputFile(RECORDED_FILE_PATH);
// Step 5: Set the preview output
/**
* Define Orientation of image in here,
* if in portrait mode, use value = 90,
* if in landscape mode, use value = 0
*/
if (current_camera_id == define.Camera.CAMERA_BACK)
// Back Camera
CustomCamera.mMediaRecorder = Utils.rotateBackVideo(CustomCamera.mMediaRecorder);
else
// Front Camera
CustomCamera.mMediaRecorder = Utils.rotateFrontVideo(CustomCamera.mMediaRecorder);
// Set preview display to refresh current screen
CustomCamera.mMediaRecorder.setPreviewDisplay(mCameraPreview.getHolder().getSurface());
// Step 6: Prepare configured MediaRecorder
try {
CustomCamera.mMediaRecorder.prepare();
} catch (IllegalStateException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
CustomCamera.releaseMediaRecorder();
return false;
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
CustomCamera.releaseMediaRecorder();
return false;
}
return true;
}
These permissions I set :
<uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.camera.front" />
<uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.microphone"/>
<uses-permission android:name = "android.permission.CAMERA" />
<uses-permission android:name = "android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<uses-permission android:name = "android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO" />
<uses-permission android:name = "android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<uses-permission android:name = "android.permission.WRITE_INTERNAL_STORAGE" />
What I want is make it can record video on Nexus 7 2012.
People who know,
Please tell me how to fix.
Thank you,
p/s : If I remove the setProfile() line I get the other exception and can not record video:

You have to pass the camera id when calling get(), exactly the same as you do when you call hasProfile(). Otherwise it will take the profile from the first back camera it founds.
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/media/CamcorderProfile.html#pubmethods
The Nexus 7 2012 crashes because it doesn't have a back camera.
You need to do this instead:
CustomCamera.mMediaRecorder.setProfile(CamcorderProfile.get(current_camera_id, CamcorderProfile.QUALITY_LOW));
