Capture image in every 42 millisecond previewed in surface View

I want to capture image previewed in surfaceView.Capturing time is every 42 millisecond.While capturing I want to send these images to the server as byteArray at this moment.For security reason, photo cant is saved to sd.I must use this for making a video call.Can anyone help me?Pls

So while previewing in SurfaceView I must get every 42 millis photo as byteArray and send it

I found solution to my problem. I have fixed it through setPreviewCallbackWithBuffer an onPreviewFrame.There is no need neither handler nor timer...

Cannot handle camera in two fragments having video recorder and Camera capture

I am making Instagram like app in which there are different screens for capturing image and recording image. My problem is that when I run my app with both fragment then my app crashes leaving error :
FATAL EXCEPTION: main
java.lang.RuntimeException: Fail to connect to camera service

And this error line is
public MediaRecorder mrec = new MediaRecorder();
Why it is happen have any idea? How can i solve this issue. I hope the camera code is not needed. But anyone want to see the code i can post here.

I got the error Because of Video sizes are not set. I solve this
int width = 320;
int height = 240;
try {
//get the available sizes of the video
List<Size> tmpList = getSupportedVideoSizes();
final List<Size> sizeList = new Vector<Size>();
// compare the apsect ratio of the candidate sizes against the
// real ratio
Double aspectRatio = (Double.valueOf(getWindowManager()
.getDefaultDisplay().getHeight()) / getWindowManager()
.getDefaultDisplay().getWidth());
for (int i = tmpList.size() - 1; i > 0; i--) {
Double tmpRatio = Double.valueOf(tmpList.get(i).height)
/ tmpList.get(i).width;
if (Math.abs(aspectRatio - tmpRatio) < .15) {
width = tmpList.get(i).width;
height = tmpList.get(i).height;
sizeList.add(tmpList.get(i));
}
}
if (EnableLog.LOG_TAG) {
Log.e("tmpList", tmpList + "*");
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
mrec.setVideoSize(width, height);
public List<Size> getSupportedVideoSizes() {
