Hi,

I am using VideoRecordApp to record a video and it crashes on Android > 7 (> api 24)

Code I am using:
B4X:
'Provider is a Fileprovider that has been configured
'Also my manifest has FileProvider snippet correctly
videoRecorder.Record2(Starter.Provider.SharedFolder, SendReport.EvidenceFilename, 15)

Error:
B4X:
** Activity (sendreportactivity) Resume **
Error occurred on line: 298 (SendReportActivity)
android.os.FileUriExposedException: file:///storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.ohiritech.app/files/Evidence 1.mp4 exposed beyond app through ClipData.Item.getUri()

What's the solution? I also use AudioRecordApp and it works well.

Kind regards.

@DonManfred sorry, am at a loss here. At what point do I copy the file AND create a fileprovider uri?

1. The app crashes on this line
B4X:
videoRecorder.Record2(Starter.Provider.SharedFolder, SendReport.EvidenceFilename, 15)
] and I have no access to the video file it has created.
2. I have successfully used the Fileprovider uri to share a file which works
3. I also use
B4X:
AudioRecorderApp
and this works well.

Can you give me a pointer on what to do?
