Abstract

A system is provided that detects a start of a camera session, captures initial raw data frames and stores them in memory. Upon determining that the camera session corresponds to a video recording session, the system activates a video recording pipeline and upon determining that the video recording pipeline is active, the system retrieves the initial raw data frames, encodes the initial raw data frames using the video recording pipeline, accesses additional captured raw data frames, and encodes the additional captured raw data frames using the video recording pipeline until detection of an end of the camera session. Upon detecting an end of the camera session, the system deactivates the video recording pipeline.
