unknown permission android.permission.RECORD_VIDEO

Suddenly in my logs in "warn" I've found this : 

unknown permission android.permission.RECORD_VIDEO

And this happened on a device that fails to do a MediaRecorder.start() method with simple and uninformative "start fails" error message.

java.lang.RuntimeException: start failed.
    at android.media.MediaRecorder.start(Native Method)
    at com.vladdrummer.headsup.ScreenVideoRecorder.record(ScreenVideoRecorder.java:94)

App is working on many devices, but some have this kind of a problem - it fails to start, although , preparing went fine

So, may be theese two errors are connected? what should I do with "unknown permission android.permission.RECORD_VIDEO" ??

There is no permission as 

android.permission.RECORD_VIDEO

See here

Ideally you should be using these permission

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA" />

Also manifest should have 

<uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.Camera"/>
