I'm doing this on both the emulator and a G1.
I create the mediarecorder object as a public variable in my main
class:
public MediaRecorder recorder = new MediaRecorder();
After looking around, I think my problem was the filename I gave. When
I changed it to "/sdcard/test.3gpp", I was able to get it to
successfully record. When I look in the filesystem, I see the file
exists.
Now I can't successfully stop though. I get a "reset failed" message
when I try. I tried creating the mediarecorder object when I hit the
record button, but that doesn't seem to help either.
