Start the video recorder application and return information about captured video clip file(s).
navigator.device.capture.captureVideo( CaptureCB captureSuccess, CaptureErrorCB captureError, [CaptureVideoOptions options] );
Starts an asynchronous operation to capture video recordings using the device's video recording application. The operation allows the user to capture more than one recordings in a single session.
The capture operation ends when either the user exits the video recording application, or the maximum number of recordings specified by CaptureVideoOptions.limit
is reached. If no limit
parameter value is specified, it defaults to one (1), and the capture operation terminates after the user records a single video clip.
When the capture operation finishes, it the CaptureCB
callback executes with an array of MediaFile
objects describing each captured video clip file. If the user terminates the operation before capturing a video clip, the CaptureErrorCB
callback executes with a CaptureError
object featuring a CaptureError.CAPTURE_NO_MEDIA_FILES
error code.
// capture callback var captureSuccess = function(mediaFiles) { var i, path, len; for (i = 0, len = mediaFiles.length; i < len; i += 1) { path = mediaFiles[i].fullPath; // do something interesting with the file } }; // capture error callback var captureError = function(error) { navigator.notification.alert('Error code: ' + error.code, null, 'Capture Error'); }; // start video capture navigator.device.capture.captureVideo(captureSuccess, captureError, {limit:2});
