Question

I want to record a video from my Android application.
like this

File f = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + "/"
            + app.getBaseName());
    if (!f.exists()) {
        f.mkdir();
    }



    filename = "Video" + lastfile() + ".mp4";

    File f1 = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + "/"
            + app.getBaseName(), filename);

    Uri uri = Uri.fromFile(f1);

    Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_VIDEO_CAPTURE);

    intent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, uri);
    intent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_VIDEO_QUALITY, 0);
    startActivityForResult(intent, 222);

and in Activity on result

@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {

    if (requestCode == 222) {
        Log.v("log_tag", "Return to back 222" + resultCode);
        if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
            Log.v("log_tag", "Return to back");


        } else if (resultCode == RESULT_CANCELED) {
            // User cancelled the image capture
        } else {
            // Image capture failed, advise user
        }

        Log.v("log_tag", "Return to back fury");
    }

    finish();
    super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
}

using this, camera is starting then I clicked middle button for recording start than I clicked left side button to stop and save and application crashed.

I printed value of resultCode in onActivityResult which gave me 0.
and video was saved on my given path with given name properly.
please help me.

I could not found proper solution for this but I solved my problem using this flow. let save video file anywhere by default and make another copy where you want, you can also delete original file after copy.

like this

protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
 if (requestCode == 222) {
  if (resultCode == RESULT_OK){   
   try {
     AssetFileDescriptor videoAsset = getContentResolver().openAssetFileDescriptor(data.getData(), "r");
     FileInputStream fis = videoAsset.createInputStream();
     File f1 = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + "/" + app.getBaseName(), filename);
     FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(f1);

     byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
     int length;
     while ((length = fis.read(buffer)) > 0) {
           fos.write(buffer, 0, length);
     }       
     fis.close();
     fos.close();
   } catch (IOException e) {
      // TODO: handle error
   }
  }
 }
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, intent);
}
