Video recording only works on my device but not on other devices
I uploaded my app to google play and I noticed that the video recording does not work on other devices , on my device work fine. So I did a debug and I discovered that I get an error message "failed to the create directory", I realized that this is because the device no include SD card. I moved my SD card to the other device and it seems that the camera starts to record but when I click STOP the app crashes.
my device android 4.0.3 LG OPTIMUS (work)
on HTC 4.0.3 (not work)
i find this , this could be helpful
here my project
Which is based on Google's training
