App is crashing when trying to record audio on setOnTouchListener


This Question is already asked but I am unable to find out my solution .

What i am doing is, MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN of OnTouchListener I started recording audio and in MotionEvent.ACTION_UP I stopped audio recording.

During long touch of that icon it is working fine but onclick app is crashing. Here is my

audio.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener(){
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            Toast.makeText(Chat.this, "You Have to hold the Button for audio recording.", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
        }
    });

audio.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {
        @Override
        public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
            if (event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN) {
                MediaRecorderReady();
                try {
                    mediaRecorder.prepare();
                    mediaRecorder.start();
                } catch (IllegalStateException e) {
                    e.printStackTrace();
                } catch (IOException e) {
                    e.printStackTrace();
                }

            } else if (event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_UP) {
                if (mediaRecorder != null) {
                    mediaRecorder.stop();
                }
            }
            return true;
        }
    });

 public void MediaRecorderReady() {
    mediaRecorder = new MediaRecorder();
    mediaRecorder.setAudioSource(MediaRecorder.AudioSource.MIC);
    mediaRecorder.setOutputFormat(MediaRecorder.OutputFormat.THREE_GPP);
    mediaRecorder.setAudioEncoder(MediaRecorder.OutputFormat.AMR_NB);
    mediaRecorder.setOutputFile(AudioSavePathInDevice);
}

Here is my problem , when I am clicking on that button the app is crashing


Solution

  • Check this answer Android mediarecorder stop failed and Also Read the offical documentation about mediaRecorder and its states. https://developer.android.com/reference/android/media/MediaRecorder.html crash is caused because you stop the media player and media player not in recording state.. donot call stop directly when it is not in recording state.

    try {
         mRecorder.stop();
        } 
         catch(RuntimeException e) {
         } 
          finally {
                   mRecorder.release();
                   mRecorder = null;
         }
