[Q] Video from camera green/purple (corrupted)?

I've tried taking a video with the default camera app and it results in a purple/pink/green pixels. The sound works perfectly fine. I'm wondering if there is any way for me to fix this file? Here is an image of what it looks like.

Video recording not working in stock camera

When I attempted to record video with the stick camera app, I get an error saying "Cannot start video capture."
I haven't unlocked my bootloader, and I haven't done any unusual customizations.
Video does work in the Google camera app.
Trying to take a picture with the stock camera app using the front-facing camera crashes the app.

Camera Bug - Photo/Slowmo/Snapchat works, normal Video doesn't

Hey, somehow I can't use Video function in camera, WhatsApp or other cameras like Google Camera, but slowmo video does work and in Snapchat videos also works. Any idea?
In camera app the option button and so on are greyed out when I'm in video mode. In WhatsApp i.e. I get the error that it can't connect to the cam.
I'm on grossoshop's 20s.

Clear cache from recovery. Then go to app manager and clear data of Camera app.
Did this problem happen suddenly or right from the start when u were using grossoshop's rom. It maybe the rom-related issue.

Didnt help, some camera apps work and some not, really strange. I don't know since when I have this bug as I'm not using the video mode in camera app usually

Now I acknowledged that the microphone also is blocked. Something is blocking video and audio recording. I tried removing all permissions from apps of microphone and just kept Recorder permission on - still says "used by another app". But just saying something works like Ok Google (with permission for sure). Online recording isn't working.

audio recording in videos from 3rd party apps (snapchat, Instagram)

Is there anyone else having a weird issue while recording a video through a 3rd party app like Instagram or snapchat, the video is good but the audio recorded is almost non existent only like a pointy noise is what is recorded. It appears to be some kind of noise cancelation going wrong or something like that. But when I record a video with the stock camera app the sound is perfect. I have tried several versions of those apps and the issue persist. So I guess it's not the apps but the phone.

Video recording does not work on Android 9.0 pie stable

I used the vpn trick to update to android pie and have magisk installed. Everything works fine, 4g wifi etc. However, I noticed in the stock camera app video recording does not work. I can take pictures both on front and rear cam. When I enabled hyperlapse or slowmo, it can record video but never when those features are not enabled. I tried installing Open Camera from playstore (an opensource camera software) and tried to record video with that app but still nothing. It says "Failed to record video". I recently also enabled camera2api and installed gcam and it can take pictures but not record video. Weird thing is that I tried capturing video on Facebook Messenger and it worked. Video recording works on messenger but not on camera apps?? Did anyone experience this or is it just me?

Try to record video without audio in Open camera. If it works, download Cinema FV camera app and try different audio codec. It happened to me on Oreo, I couldn't find the reason. Once the full ROM has been released by Xiaomi, I reflashed it and video started to work in all apps again. Maybe something went wrong during OTA update, hard to tell. All I know is that it messed up with audio codecs and I had to use another as the default one to be able to record video with sound.

Hmm you're right the problem is with the audio. I tried open camera and disabled audio and it worked. I also followed your suggestion and installed cinema fv camera app and tried all the different codecs but it still doesn't work. It works though if I disable audio completely. Maybe I'll just wait for the new security patch to come.

I just found my old post, this codec in Cinema FV worked for me when I had the recording issue - "AAC-ELD".
