Description

What I am looking for is to be able to start preview, start recording video, end recording video ,
and I wan to do that in a way, that I don't have to restart the camera after stopping the recording process, so that I don't loose ANY FRAME in the preview, in short, I want to not stop the camera when I stop recording, and by not closing the camera I don't mean to reopen it after closing it.
is this task doable?

Research direction

The issue does not name a sample, file, or test. Start by locating the Android camera sample that handles preview and video recording, then inspect how stopping recording affects the camera session. Done means recording can stop and restart while preview continues without reopening the camera.
