I am building an app that records and plays audio. I use a touch button to record. Audio is recorded successfully on prolonged touch, but if i tap the button without holding my finger on it for more than one second, my app crashes.
mRecordBtn.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener(){
@Override
public boolean onTouch(View view, MotionEvent motionEvent) {
if (motionEvent.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN) {
startRecording();
mRecordLabel.setText("Recording...");
}
else if (motionEvent.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_UP) {
stopRecording();
mRecordLabel.setText("Recording stopped");
}
return false;
}
});
private void startRecording() {
recorder = new MediaRecorder();
recorder.setAudioSource(MediaRecorder.AudioSource.MIC);
recorder.setOutputFormat(MediaRecorder.OutputFormat.MPEG_4);
recorder.setOutputFile(fileName);
recorder.setAudioEncoder(MediaRecorder.AudioEncoder.AAC);
try {
recorder.prepare();
} catch (IOException e) {
Log.e(LOG_TAG, "prepare() failed");
}
recorder.start();
}
private void stopRecording() {
recorder.stop();
recorder.release();
recorder = null;
}
Logcat when prolonged touching (no error):

I can tell there is something wrong when stopping the recording process, but i can't seem to fix it on my own...
The prepare needs some time to be executed, so when tapping you are trying to stop the recorder but you are not sure that it has already started, you can have a variable isStarted to check or surround the stop with a try catch.
Solution 1
private void startRecording() {
recorder = new MediaRecorder();
recorder.setAudioSource(MediaRecorder.AudioSource.MIC);
recorder.setOutputFormat(MediaRecorder.OutputFormat.MPEG_4);
recorder.setOutputFile(fileName);
recorder.setAudioEncoder(MediaRecorder.AudioEncoder.AAC);
try {
recorder.prepare();
} catch (IOException e) {
Log.e(LOG_TAG, "prepare() failed");
}
recorder.start();
isStarted = true;
}
private void stopRecording() {
if(isStarted) {
recorder.stop();
recorder.release();
recorder = null;
isStarted = false;
}
}
Solution 2
private void stopRecording() {
try {
recorder.stop();
recorder.release();
recorder = null;
} catch(Exception e) {}
}
