Public methods

getBitDepth

Added in API level 33
fun getBitDepth(): Int

The bit depth of the encoded video.

This value is effectively 8 or 10, but some devices may support additional values.

getBitrate

Added in API level 31
fun getBitrate(): Int

The target video output bitrate in bits per second

This is the target recorded video output bitrate if the application configures the video recording via MediaRecorder#setProfile without specifying any other MediaRecorder encoding parameters. For example, for high speed quality profiles (from CamcorderProfile#QUALITY_HIGH_SPEED_LOW to android.media.CamcorderProfile#QUALITY_HIGH_SPEED_2160P), this is the bitrate where the video is recorded with. If the application intends to record slow motion videos with the high speed quality profiles, it must set a different video bitrate that is corresponding to the desired recording output bit rate (i.e., the encoded video bitrate during normal playback) via MediaRecorder#setVideoEncodingBitRate. For example, if android.media.CamcorderProfile#QUALITY_HIGH_SPEED_720P advertises 240fps getFrameRate and 64Mbps getBitrate in the high speed VideoProfile, and the application intends to record 1/8 factor slow motion recording videos, the application must set 30fps via MediaRecorder#setVideoFrameRate and 8Mbps ( getBitrate * slow motion factor) via MediaRecorder#setVideoEncodingBitRate. Failing to do so will result in videos with unexpected frame rate and bit rate, or MediaRecorder error if the output bit rate exceeds the encoder limit. If the application intends to do the video recording with MediaCodec encoder, it must set each individual field of MediaFormat similarly according to this VideoProfile.

getChromaSubsampling

Added in API level 33
fun getChromaSubsampling(): Int

The chroma subsampling of the encoded video.

For most devices this is always YUV_420 but some devices may support additional values.

Return
Int Value is android.media.EncoderProfiles.VideoProfile#YUV_420, android.media.EncoderProfiles.VideoProfile#YUV_422, or android.media.EncoderProfiles.VideoProfile#YUV_444

getFrameRate

Added in API level 31
fun getFrameRate(): Int

The target video frame rate in frames per second.

This is the target recorded video output frame rate per second if the application configures the video recording via MediaRecorder#setProfile without specifying any other MediaRecorder encoding parameters. For example, for high speed quality profiles (from CamcorderProfile#QUALITY_HIGH_SPEED_LOW to android.media.CamcorderProfile#QUALITY_HIGH_SPEED_2160P), this is the frame rate where the video is recorded and played back with. If the application intends to create slow motion use case with the high speed quality profiles, it must set a different video frame rate that is corresponding to the desired output (playback) frame rate via android.media.MediaRecorder#setVideoFrameRate. For example, if android.media.CamcorderProfile#QUALITY_HIGH_SPEED_720P advertises 240fps getFrameRate in the VideoProfile, and the application intends to create 1/8 factor slow motion recording videos, the application must set 30fps via android.media.MediaRecorder#setVideoFrameRate. Failing to do so will result in high speed videos with normal speed playback frame rate (240fps for above example). If the application intends to do the video recording with MediaCodec encoder, it must set each individual field of MediaFormat similarly according to this VideoProfile.

getHeight

Added in API level 31
fun getHeight(): Int

The target video frame height in pixels

getMediaType

Added in API level 31
fun getMediaType(): String

The media type of the video encoder being used for the video track

Return
String This value cannot be null.

getProfile

Added in API level 31
fun getProfile(): Int

The video encoder profile being used for the video track.

This value is negative if there is no profile defined for the video codec.

getWidth

Added in API level 31
fun getWidth(): Int

The target video frame width in pixels
