setRecord(true) is same as invoking start().
setRecord(false) is same as invoking stop().
getRecord() can check whether the camera is recording.
Note: getRecord() will return true even the camera is pause, this method will return false only when the camera is stop, if you want to know when the camera is pause, please listen to onStateChange.
