Video compatibility issue: android recorded video not played in iphone

Question

I am recording a video in android like this

List<Camera.Size> list =  myCamera.getParameters().getSupportedPictureSizes();
            Parameters parameters = myCamera.getParameters();
            parameters.setColorEffect(coloreffects.get(index_color_effect));
            myCamera.setParameters(parameters);
            mediaRecorder = new MediaRecorder();
            myCamera.unlock();
            mediaRecorder.setCamera(myCamera);
                mediaRecorder.setOrientationHint(90);
            mediaRecorder.setAudioSource(MediaRecorder.AudioSource.CAMCORDER);
            mediaRecorder.setVideoSource(MediaRecorder.VideoSource.CAMERA);
            mediaRecorder.setOutputFormat(MediaRecorder.OutputFormat.MPEG_4);
            mediaRecorder.setAudioEncoder(AudioEncoder.HE_AAC);
            mediaRecorder.setVideoEncoder(VideoEncoder.H264);
            mediaRecorder.setOutputFile(Constants.videourl);
            mediaRecorder.setMaxDuration(30000); // Set max duration 60 sec.
            mediaRecorder.setVideoFrameRate(24);
             mediaRecorder.setVideoFrameRate(30);
             mediaRecorder.setVideoSize(720, 480);

Answer 1

The iPhone supports video in MPEG-4 video format, and at a resolution not larger than 640x480

try this mediaRecorder.setVideoSize(640, 480);
