Camera2Video doesn't record WebM video

[BrunoAndroidDev]

Hello,

I'm trying to record a video in WebM format but the app is crashing

The first line tells me there is a misconfiguration

Stream configuration failed due to: endConfigure:543: Camera 0: Unsupported set of inputs/outputs provided

What I've done is just trying to find a good configuration for the MediaRecorder, as below

    private fun createRecorder(surface: Surface) = MediaRecorder().apply {
        setAudioSource(MediaRecorder.AudioSource.MIC)
        setVideoSource(MediaRecorder.VideoSource.SURFACE)
        setOutputFormat(MediaRecorder.OutputFormat.WEBM)
        setOutputFile(outputFile.absolutePath)
        setVideoEncodingBitRate(RECORDER_VIDEO_BITRATE)
        if (args.fps > 0) setVideoFrameRate(args.fps)
        setVideoSize(args.width, args.height)
        setVideoEncoder(MediaRecorder.VideoEncoder.VP8)
        setAudioEncoder(MediaRecorder.AudioEncoder.VORBIS)
        setInputSurface(surface)
    }

I tried to comment lines about audio source too because I see that Vorbis Encoder is not supported with the same results

How can I record a video in WebM format ?
