Crash on 4.4.2 and 4.3

[uberspot]

Cool project first of all. :) I find it very useful.

Now whenever I Build and Launch it on Nexus 4 with 4.4.2 or Moto X with 4.3 it crashes with the following.
Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

I believe that's just an advisory message from WindowManager. Is there another exception following it? Looks like it's complaining about the dialog that creates the two generated movies.

I think it means that the mPrepDialog.dismiss() call in ContentManager$GenerateTask#onPostExecute() isn't happening. Do you see the "onPostExecute -- dismss" message in the log?

Nope, the log posted above is all I get. After that the app crashes and nothing else is seen.

I think this is a consequence of #2 . The actual exception appears in the log before the WindowLeaked message (possibly 100+ lines up). I can reproduce the behavior by adding an exception throw in GeneratedMovie#prepareEncoder(), clearing the existing movies, and launching the app.

This could be handled better.

New version is up. It now reports failures in the initial video generation with a dialog, and lets you continue on. Various activities are likely to fail, but at least you get to see a failure message now.

Tested with the AOSP emulator, which always fails (because it always uses the software AVC codec).
