Android - Audio recorder FileNotFound

Question

Hi, I'm trying to record audio

this.recorder = new android.media.MediaRecorder(); this.recorder.setAudioSource(android.media.MediaRecorder.AudioSource.MIC); this.recorder.setOutputFormat(android.media.MediaRecorder.OutputFormat.DEFAULT); this.recorder.setAudioEncoder(android.media.MediaRecorder.AudioEncoder.DEFAULT); this.recorder.setOutputFile("pruebaAudioRecorder.mp4"); this.recorder.prepare(); this.recorder.start();

but when i call prepare method throws the FileNotFound exception.

• Should I create the file before prepare method? something like new File(...)
• If so, which should be the file path?

thx a lot.
