You probably get an error code in one of your callbacks. Check that first. It may provide some indication about if it is an implementation (HW or SW) limit, or some policy thing. In the latter case MultimediaDD capability may help.

Thanks Wizard for reply..

I used CCaeEngine API for video recording its working fine for me.
Can CCaeEngine API support for every 3rd edition and onward symbian phone or any issue with this API ?

Hello EveryBddy,

I used CMdaAudioRecorderUtility API for audio recording.It working fine.
I want only 20 sec audio recording and after 20 sec my audio recorder stop automatically.
How we achieve it?

Hi wizard,
I am facing a similar problem. In my application, 30 sec audio buffer is being recorded continuously in the background. I am using CMdaAudioRecorderUtility for th recording.
Whenever i try to play a music file or video, it does not start playing. Only when my application is closed does it start playing. I have added MultimediaDD capability but the issue remains.
Also on checking in debug mode i do not get any error code in MoscoStateChangeEvent(CBase* aObject, TInt aPreviousState, TInt aCurrentState, TInt aErrorCode)
Can you suggest a possible solution?

Not from my side, sorry. I could not do anything either if I would not get the notifications in the callbacks.
