Android / IOS Record Video and play with it ?

Question

Is it possible to record video in Air 2.6 to mobile ?
I know I can getCamera... but after it, can I record ?
My goal is to make App that record video with the camera and push effect on it.
Tank you!

You can definitely record video on both and have the data at your disposal.  As far as I know you cannot select a video from the "video roll" though so you will have to edit only the video you just recorded:
private var cameraRoll:CameraRoll = new CameraRoll();
private var dataSource:IDataInput;
        private var eventSource:IEventDispatcher;
vid_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, openVideo);
private function openVideo(evt:MouseEvent):void{
deviceCameraApp = new CameraUI();
if( CameraUI.isSupported )
                log( "Initializing camera..." );
                deviceCameraApp.addEventListener( MediaEvent.COMPLETE, videoSelected );
                deviceCameraApp.addEventListener( Event.CANCEL, captureCanceled );
                deviceCameraApp.addEventListener( ErrorEvent.ERROR, cameraError );
                deviceCameraApp.launch( MediaType.VIDEO );   //Changing this to IMAGE will make it take a picture
               else
                log( "Camera interface is not supported.");
private function videoSelected( event:MediaEvent ):void
            log( "Media selected..." );
            var videoPromise:MediaPromise = event.data;
            dataSource = videoPromise.open();
            if( videoPromise.isAsync )
                log( "Asynchronous media promise." );
                eventSource = dataSource as IEventDispatcher;
                log( eventSource );
                eventSource.addEventListener( Event.COMPLETE, onVideoDataComplete );               
**At this point, when the onVideoDataComplete function fires, you will have access to the bytes of the movie:
private function onVideoDataComplete(evt:Event):void
            var videoBytes:ByteArray = new ByteArray();
            dataSource.readBytes( imageBytes );
            //the rest of this is just testing what we actually read
            log(videoBytes.length);
            videoBytes.position = 0;
            var string:String = videoBytes.readUTFBytes( 300 );
            log( string );
**You can then do whatever you want with the bytes, such as save it to your local storage directory as a .mp4 and load it into flash
Does that help?
