In Ionic 2, using @ionic-native/media-capture on iOS to capture video, I’m calling mediaCapture.captureVideo() but after recording the video and clicking Use Video, the native video capture page is closed and I see a completely white screen with a long vertical scrollbar. It seems that a white page has been placed on top of my app and so now the user cannot do anything else afterwards.
Here’s the capture:
import { MediaCapture, MediaFile, CaptureError, CaptureImageOptions, CaptureVideoOptions, CaptureAudioOptions } from '@ionic-native/media-capture';
@Injectable()
export class MyService {
constructor(private mediaCapture: MediaCapture){};
captureVideo() {
this.mediaCapture.captureVideo({limit:1, duration:600}).then(
(data: MediaFile[]) => { alert('done'); return data[0] },
(err: CaptureError) => { alert(err) }
).catch((exception) => { alert(exception) });
}
We successfully see the ‘done’ alert, but it is shown over the white screen which has already opened.
Versions:
- Ionic: 2.2.1
- @ionic-native/media-capture: 3.4.3
- cordova-plugin-media-capture: 1.4.2
Update
Interestingly when I use the captureAudio() method, I see a similar thing but instead of a full white screen it shows a scrollable white panel on the right side of the screen, approximately 1/4 the width of the screen (iPad, landscape). Looks like a slide in menu but I’m not using one.
Also interestingly, the problem only occurs in Landscape mode on the iPad. When in portrait mode there is no white screen shown.
