Using: WM5 SP, .NetCF2

Using the regular camera My phone is capable of recording .mp4 movies,
but somehow the CameraCaptureDialog only records .wmv movies. I've
tried every variation of CameraCaptureDialog.Mode and
CameraCaptureDialog.VideoTypes without any luck. Bug?

There is some variation on what you actually get when using these settings
because the OEM has to implement part of the support for their particular
hardware. However if you set the VideoTypes property to Messaging it should
give a format which is MMS compatible, which WMV is not. If this still
creates a WMV then it would seem to me to be a bug and you should try
contacting the device manufacturer or see if they have a ROM update already
to fix it.

Well, a bug it is, in that case. I'll report it to the manufacturer.

Thanks, Peter!

We have a similar problem with one particular device, except that it will only record MP4 when launched from the CCD, even though the camera software on the device will also record AVI. It's a UTStarcom 6700. It seems as though the OEMs are having some difficulty supporting this in a standardized way. If anyone can think of a workaround, it would be helpful
