Android Question [solved] CamEx2 Problem with Video

[DonManfred]

I use CamEx2 (and Camera2 library).
The same code in another app does work. But in my new app it raises an Error.

Any hints are higly appreciated.

 

[MarkusR]

i can't follow this path

, VideoFileDir, "temp-" & VideoFileName)

 

[DonManfred]

i can't follow this path

b4a can not follow too. I forgot to set two variables to the right values (they are set in the other app on a different place).

Thank you!

Now i run into another problem.

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: CaptureRequest contains unconfigured Input/Output Surface!

but i´ll create a new Thread about this Issue.
