problem with capture video

[Fuad Nassar]

hi, 

I try to use this code to capture and show video 

and then when running it under ( 4.4.4 Android Version ) I get something like this message "the camera was stopped" (in finally  process failed)

but when I use (6.1 Version) I get this message "Allow appname to access photo, media, and files on your device?"(in finally process done) 

my question: why this difference of result and what I can do to solve and dispose of these messages.

Please, post the code as text because it is impossible to read it from your screenshot...

 final Form hi = new Form("Hi World");
    hi.setLayout(new BorderLayout());

    Button bCapture = new Button("Capture Media");
    bCapture.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
        public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ect) {
            try {
                final MediaPlayer mpPlayer = new MediaPlayer();
                String value = Capture.captureVideo();
                System.out.println("Captured Video " + value);
                if (value != null) {
                    System.out.println("Playing Video");
                    InputStream is = FileSystemStorage.getInstance().openInputStream(value);
                    String strMime = "video/mp4";
                    System.out.println("Input Stream" + is.available());
                    mpPlayer.setName("bla");
                    mpPlayer.setDataSource(is, strMime, new Runnable() {
                        public void run() {
                            System.out.println("reset the clip for playback");
                        }
                    });
                    hi.addComponent(BorderLayout.CENTER, mpPlayer);
                    hi.revalidate();
                }
            } catch (Exception e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }
    }
    );
    hi.addComponent(BorderLayout.NORTH, bCapture);

    hi.show();

Android 6+ changed the permission behavior to prompt for permission when you try to use device capabilities such as camera etc. That explains that behavior.

I'm not sure why you would get that a camera was stopped but it might be a crash of the camera native activity, there isn't much we can do about those things.
