Android / IOS Record Video and play with it ?

You might want to test my library and let me know - you can make apps such as this in AIR (for iOS definitely in this version), record camera plus any number of layers on top ^^

Shameless promo (but the lib is free for noncommerical use): Flash/AIR record videos of your apps and games: Rainbow Creatures

Has anyone gotten this to work yet? I have a project where I need to capture video with the camera, play it back, and upload it to a server. Needs to run om iOS. Any solutions for this yet?

Thanks!

You can definitely record video on both and have the data at your disposal.  As far as I know you cannot select a video from the "video roll" though so you will have to edit only the video you just recorded:

private var cameraRoll:CameraRoll = new CameraRoll();

private var dataSource:IDataInput;

        private var eventSource:IEventDispatcher;

vid_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, openVideo);

private function openVideo(evt:MouseEvent):void{

deviceCameraApp = new CameraUI();

if( CameraUI.isSupported )

               {

                log( "Initializing camera..." );

                deviceCameraApp.addEventListener( MediaEvent.COMPLETE, videoSelected );

                deviceCameraApp.addEventListener( Event.CANCEL, captureCanceled );

                deviceCameraApp.addEventListener( ErrorEvent.ERROR, cameraError );

                deviceCameraApp.launch( MediaType.VIDEO );   //Changing this to IMAGE will make it take a picture

               }

               else

               {

                log( "Camera interface is not supported.");

               }

}

private function videoSelected( event:MediaEvent ):void

        {

            log( "Media selected..." );

            var videoPromise:MediaPromise = event.data;

            dataSource = videoPromise.open();

            if( videoPromise.isAsync )

            {

                log( "Asynchronous media promise." );

                eventSource = dataSource as IEventDispatcher;

                log( eventSource );

                eventSource.addEventListener( Event.COMPLETE, onVideoDataComplete );               

            }

}

**At this point, when the onVideoDataComplete function fires, you will have access to the bytes of the movie:

private function onVideoDataComplete(evt:Event):void

        {

            var videoBytes:ByteArray = new ByteArray();

            dataSource.readBytes( imageBytes );

            //the rest of this is just testing what we actually read

            log(videoBytes.length);

            videoBytes.position = 0;

            var string:String = videoBytes.readUTFBytes( 300 );

            log( string );

        }

**You can then do whatever you want with the bytes, such as save it to your local storage directory as a .mp4 and load it into flash

Does that help?
