To capture video and photos using CameraX in Android Compose, bind Preview, VideoCapture, and ImageCapture use cases together via ProcessCameraProvider, checking CameraInfo.isUseCaseCombinationSupported() for older device compatibility.
Save CameraX video recordings to the Android MediaStore by configuring VideoCapture with MediaStoreOutputOptions, enabling optional audio support to produce gallery-ready MP4 files managed by the system.
CameraX recording fails with IllegalStateException on recomposition due to improper lifecycle management or lost references. Maintain strong references to active recordings and implement anti-pattern-safe unbind and rebind logic tied to the UI lifecycle.
Yes, you can toggle the torch and switch cameras in a Compose app using CameraX by observing camera state and dynamically applying camera selectors and torch control updates to the bound camera instance.
To record video with audio using CameraX, you need camera and audio recording permissions configured in your Android manifest, enabling the microphone for VideoCapture alongside the standard camera access.
Ensure CameraX preview starts and stops safely with the Compose lifecycle by binding use cases through ProcessCameraProvider within a lifecycle-aware Compose setup, preventing crashes across orientations and recompositions.
