video_recorder not recording the Image stream

edit

I am trying the record a Image stream directly since I do not want to deal with bags. Hence I am using video_recorder but the output mp4 file (output.avi) gives the following error when I try to play the file:

Could not demultiplex stream

I think the error is related with timestamps because the topic I try to record had no prior camera_info topic so I created one myself. Also, if I try to record some other Image topic with an existing camera_info topic on the terminal I can see the following info:

Recording frame 1

Recording frame 2

Recording frame 3

...

and the output .avi file is playable without any errors. But if I try to record my problematic Image topic, those messages don't print on the terminal.
