The cache files are temporary data packets containing repetitive outputs when the camera app processes. Sometimes, these cached data get outdated or corrupted, leading to many issues like this video recording not working problem.

Here is how you can clear the camera app cache:

1. Go to Settings.
2. Tap on Apps.
3. Tap on Camera.
4. Go to Storage.
5. Tap on Clear cache.

Fix 05: Do a Software Update

Like glitches, software bugs cannot be fixed by just adjusting settings or clearing cache data. 

Software updates include bug fixes and patches to increase the overall device’s performance.  Therefore, the best way to fix such bugs is by doing a software update.

To update your Samsung Galaxy S22, here is what you need to do:

1. Head over to Settings.
2. Tap on Battery and device care.
3. Tap on Software update.

4. Then, tap on Download and install.

Once the update has been successfully installed, your device will be running the most up-to-date Android version. This will ensure that any potential bugs or glitches that may have been causing your camera to malfunction are resolved.
