Android : Remove duration limit for low quality video capture intent

on Friday, September 26, 2014


I would like to record a video by using just an intent:



Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_VIDEO_CAPTURE);


It needs to be a low quality so I use: intent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_VIDEO_QUALITY, 0); which works fine. The problem is that it gives me a limit of 23 seconds. Afterwards it stops recording. This limit is displayed on UI like this 00:00 / 00:23 and once it reaches that time it stops. This limit doesn't occur on high quality video settings. I tried to increase limit by setting:



intent.putExtra("android.intent.extra.durationLimit",50);


But it doesn't affect it at all. I can give it smaller number than 23 seconds or I can give it higher with no effect. I also tried to increase size of the file with the same result.



intent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_SIZE_LIMIT, 1000000);


These settings work for video high quality but not for video low quality. Does anyone have solution for it? Ideally video shouldn't have any duration limit.
