Shazron Abdullah commented on CB-6697:
--------------------------------------
We are trying to follow the media capture spec, so if it's in there, we could
implement it. Which media capture spec to follow is another thing altogether
(the one we use is old and based off an older spec).
> Autostart video capture option
> ------------------------------
>
> Key: CB-6697
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-6697
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Plugin Media Capture
> Reporter: Max Franz
> Priority: Minor
>
> It would be great to have an option to automatically start recording the
> video for the media capture plugin once invoked.
> Opening the capture video UI will usually happen as a result of user
> interaction (e.g. a tap), so it's deliberate on the user's part. Thus, we
> can eliminate the second tap (red rec button) in many usecases by starting
> the recording as soon as `capture.captureVideo()` is invoked. This can
> greatly increase user experience by reducing repetition.
> This should definitely be optional, because there are usecases where the user
> would not want to start recording right away.
