/**
 * Used to record audio and video. The recording control is based on a
 * simple state machine (see below).
 *
 * <p><img src="{@docRoot}images/mediarecorder_state_diagram.gif" border="0" />
 * </p>
 *
 * <p>A common case of using MediaRecorder to record audio works as follows:
 *
 * <pre>MediaRecorder recorder = new MediaRecorder();
 * recorder.setAudioSource(MediaRecorder.AudioSource.MIC);
 * recorder.setOutputFormat(MediaRecorder.OutputFormat.THREE_GPP);
 * recorder.setAudioEncoder(MediaRecorder.AudioEncoder.AMR_NB);
 * recorder.setOutputFile(PATH_NAME);
 * recorder.prepare();
 * recorder.start();   // Recording is now started
 * ...
 * recorder.stop();
 * recorder.reset();   // You can reuse the object by going back to setAudioSource() step
 * recorder.release(); // Now the object cannot be reused
 * </pre>
 *
 * <p>See the <a href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/media/index.html">Audio and Video</a>
 * documentation for additional help with using MediaRecorder.
 * <p>Note: Currently, MediaRecorder does not work on the emulator.
