EXTRA_DURATION_LIMIT android

I am trying to limit video recording duration by 5 seconds. I am using default camera and this code:

intent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_DURATION_LIMIT, 5);

Now it works fine on Samsung S6, it stops recording after 5 seconds but I just tested on HTC older version and it just keeps recording after 5s pass. Any suggestion of how to limit the recording time for all of the phones?

Record it yourself, using a camera API (e.g., android.hardware.Camera) and MediaRecorder, or a library that wraps around those.

ACTION_VIDEO_CAPTURE invokes a third-party camera app, and there are hundreds of these. EXTRA_DURATION_LIMIT is a request, and not all camera apps will honor it.
