at org.icemobile.samples.mobileshowcase.view.examples.device.camcorder.CamcorderBean.<clinit>(CamcorderBean.java:87)
... 49 more

with the cause being the following code:


    private static final String videoConvertCommand = FacesUtils.getFacesParameter(
                        "org.icemobile.videoConvertCommand");


we should likely move this to the bean constructor.
