Yes but for a file smaller than 1Mb it must not be too burdening to do on-device. Got some structures in c language for the video ref and diff frames. Might write the decode, reverse and encode lib in java if i dont find one :( Thanks and do let me know if you find any libs in c or java for thi

Unless you modify the video file by concatenating a reversed version with the original. There are open-source tools for transforming video files (such as ffmpeg); you could possibly run one on the phone after recording, or you upload it to a cloud (preferably while recording), transform and downlo
