URL: https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-media-capture/issues/181


   # Bug Report
   
   ## Problem
   Using the plugin _cordova-plugin-media-capture_ to launch the camera which by default would use the Windows camera app in Windows 10. However, the camera app encounters error when it is opened in video mode through `navigator.device.capture.captureVideo()`.
   ### What is expected to happen?
   It is expected to launch the Windows Camera app in video mode.

   ## Information
   It seems that using the Cordova application to launch the camera app would encounter error if the Windows camera is left in a picture mode state previously.
   
   A current work-around is to open the Windows Camera app and set it in video/record mode, by doing so the Cordova application was able to launch the camera app in video mode properly.
   
   
   
   
   
   ### Environment, Platform, Device
   Microsoft Windows 10 version 1909 (OS Build 18363.900).
   Windows Camera App version 2020.504.40.0
