Video Recording Error - Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Most of the time when I go to open the camera app to record a video, nothing will record and I have to reboot my phone. The problem persists in any app that records audio and/or video. I'm running Nougat and did a factory reset within the last week.

Believe I have isolated the problem to Shazam's Auto Shazam feature

Nexus 4 video recording problems

My nexus 4 has started to develop some issues. The most annoying one is the frequent failure of the camera to record video. I press red record button which registers the touch but no recording starts. It will work for a while after a reboot but always happens again.
When i try to use an alternative camera app to record video i get a message saying "oops video recording is not currently working on your device" so its not just the camera app playing up.
Does anyone know what could be causing this or how to fix it. Running stock and unrooted.
Edit: so playing about with this a bit more and ive discovered it only happens after i try to watch a video from the gallery. So i boot up my phone, record a video and its works ok. I can record videos fine. However if i go into the gallery and try to watch one of the videos playback fails. If i then go back to the camera and try and record a new video i get the issue as described above. BUT if i do the same thing but view the video outside of gallery (i used mx player) the video plays fine and the camera recording continues to work.
So it seems its an issue with gallery playback of the video. I have forced stopped the gallery, cleared data and cache but that didn't help.

Audio keeps playing but the video stops and the image is frozen in recorded videos

Didnt notice that every video I record after my last update , can only record audio and video the first minute or less and then for some reason playback stops but you can still listen to audio. This has happened to all my recorded videos.
Read somewhere on the internet that you have to delete DATA and clear CACHE on the Camera app, same results. ANyone else has run in the same problem??Any fix?

Video recording freezes in app, audio keeps going (Harry's Laptimer)

Hello,
I have recently switched from a GoPro to this app to gather more data on track but im experiencing some problems with recording. After emailing with the app developer we came to the conclusion that this seems to be a problem with the device and not the app itself.
Whenever i start recording the camera always seems to freeze at or around the 4min11 mark.
After watching the recording i noticed that the audio does keep going.
I have tried;
- changing the resolution (4K, 1080, 720 and SD)
- close all apps running in background
- exporting the videos to pc to play them with VLC (could have been a playback issue but nope)
Using the camera outside the app oddly enough does not give any problems.
Any chance there is way to solve this issue?
Phone is rooted, running stock oxygen software and had a factory reset 2 weeks ago.
Thanks

Problems with video recording

When I record video on my LeEco pro3, it usually can record for as much as I want. I went to two concerts recently and everytime I tried recording a song, it stops recording at varying short intervals with a timeout error message. Has anyone had this issue? I will try to see if I can replicate the issue and send screenshots.
Use my camera daily for short videos at my work. We shoot 5-10 videos a day at about 9 minutes each. Never had an issue. X727
That's the strange thing. I have been able to record long videos at home but the concerts ones never last more than a few minutes. Maybe the constant refusing due to lighting changes causes the camera phone to crash?

I can confirm what you are saying. I have used the phone on a tripod to capture hour long videos, several of them. But when I use the camera on hand and try to capture videos while moving around, it just stops recording at random moments.
In my case the app didn't crash, it just stops recording, Pressing the record button starts recording again.

This is exactly what the problem is. If you see the error message again, can you take a screenshot for me? I don't get the option to continue to record. It just closes the camera application when i press okay.

Microphone only captures white noise after Oreo upgrade

So, I upgraded directly from Android 6 to Android 8, and now the microphone doesn't work in apps; it only records white noise. All related apps have the recording permissions enabled. Same result in the system's built-in audio recorder, it only records white noise.
However, the microphone works fine when doing phone calls, and also when recording videos using the system's built-in camera app. So it's not a physical issue.
Trying to record videos in Whatsapp gives an error saying to check the permissions, but this error only shows up after the recording is done (which means that the camera does show up and let me record the video), and right after it shows a warning saying that "the file is not compatible", so the Whatsapp video preview doesn't show up and the video is not sent.
Attaching a video recorded externally through the system's built-in camera app works normally, though.
Also, the Santander bank app always crashes on startup, this didn't happen in Android 6.
So many issues, and I did format the phone and wiped up the cache after the Oreo upgrade, but these problems still persists.
Updated everything through Google Play afterwards, and still nothing.
