Yeah it doesn't seem to be writing videos for me either. I've tried changing the following things:

plugin.xml
line 44 - lines 47

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECORD_VIDEO"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />android:name=&quot;android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE&quot; /&gt;

BackgroundVideo.java
line 33 - 41

FILE_PATH = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().toString() + "/";
File folder = new File(FILE_PATH);
if (!folder.exists()) {
    folder.mkdir();
    Log.d(TAG, "folder.created: " + FILE_PATH);
} else {
    Log.d(TAG, "folder.exists: " + FILE_PATH);
}

But i'm getting the following output:

folder.exists: /storage/emulated/0/
start Recording: /storage/emulated/0/myvideo.mp4
stop: 

And trying to use Android File Transfer or adb pull to get the files, no luck:

adb pull /data/data/. /.

I changed the following in BackgoundVideo.java on line 34,

FILE_PATH = "/storage/emulated/0/Pictures/";

Now all video's saved to Pictures folder in Gallery

The latest version now returns the file path on stop - does this help?
Do you still have the issue when running the demo?

Hi! I'm running the demo on iOS and the stop function is returning undefined. Any idea why?

[quantodaniel]

I guess the problem is with cordova plugin add io.iclue.backgroundvideo.. downloading from github works fine!

Hello! The ios version isn't going saving to my library either. Any suggestions?

Hi is this still a problem with the newer versions?
