View 3 RepliesI'm Trying to fine tune the Camera settings and was wondering if you guys changed the settings around and got better Pictures/Video and what did you change your settings to? I'm more concerned about fine tuning the video Settings even though i know both the Camera/Camcorder share the same settings.

It appears ThorstenW is correct. I would upvote your answer if I had enough rep. You can see from the logcat that com.android.camera could not be found and throws a fatal exception. Logcat below.

Question is, has anyone else gotten it and it makes ur G1 sound kinda like a computer. Let me explain, when im phone is on, sense i downloaded the app, i can hear my phone running, kinda like how u can hear ur computer run, it makes wierd little sounds like its computing something, kinda weird i know. Kinda bugs me but I'll survive, anyone else having this problem though?

Suppose I want to create some live video streaming service app so I'll have some cool server at the back end. And I know how to do that part. Suppose I have some stand alone app for PCs now I want to go on to mobile devices. So I want to see some sample app grabing audio and video streams from Phone, Synchronizing them, encoding somehow, and sending LIVE stream to server. I need any Open-Source sample that will do this or something like this. Where can I get such one?

View 2 Replies View Relatedwe got a requirement to record video from front and rear cameras simultaniously.. In the Android 2.1 SDK we only have the MediaRecorder.VideoSource.CAMERA and DEFAULT, but not FRONT_CAMERA and REAR_CAMERA. So, is there any other way to record from Front camera.. like any third party API's.
View 1 Replies View RelatedIs there anyway I can stream camera video from android online outside of wifi routher so I can see video from remote computer?There are copule of solutions but those app only stream video from android to pc over the same wifi routher. Good program for that is Ip webcam.
And you can also send that video to another android device with tinyCam Monitor.But I want to stream it online so it could be accesed by remote computer! One solution is with IP Camera Adapter so you could use video from android as your webcam in skype.
But this is too complicated because you must have your computer turned on, and skype opened. Some other solutions have same problem because you must have your computer on.
I found one really difficult solution with port forwarding and you have to open host on .no-ip.biz...So, can it be done only from android phone with one or two programs.
Recently i got 2 android phones by samsung. One is Samsung Galaxy i5801 Apolo and the other Samsung i5500(Galaxy 5).
Both these mobiles don't have a front camera in it. Is it possible to make a video call from these devices without a front camera?
Any options through android apps or etc?
My application has buttons to launch gallery and video camera apps but the below code only seems to work on phones with the standard Cupcake build:
// For Gallery Intent intent = new Intent(); intent.setClassName("com.android.camera", "com.android.camera.GalleryPicker");
intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK); mContext.startActivity(intent);
// For Video Camera Intent intent = new Intent(); intent.setClassName("com.android.camera", "com.android.camera.VideoCamera"); intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK); mContext.startActivity(intent);
On rooted / non-cupcake phones, I get this error:
android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: Unable to find explicit activity class {com.android.camera/com.android.camera.VideoCamera};
have you declared this activity in your AndroidManifest.xml? at android.app.Instrumentation.checkStartActivityResult (Instrumentation.java:1480) at android.app.Instrumentation.execStartActivity(Instrumentation.java: 1454) at android.app.Activity.startActivityForResult(Activity.java:2656) at android.app.Activity.startActivity(Activity.java:2700)
I wanted to write an application that makes use of the camera taking extremely slow frame-rate video and uploading it. Right now I am reading over this:
http://itp.nyu.edu/~sve204/mobilemedia_spring10/androidCamera101.pdf
My question was in regards to the camera's use. The above article makes use of a canvas to preview the image, if one didn't want to preview the image before taking it could that be done? Is it necessary to use a preview of the camera image or can I just call takepicture to take the picture and catch the resulting callback to save it to a file?
A number of previous posts imply that attempts to apply bespoke image processing on a Camera preview are hamstrung by a buggy API and will in any event run extremely slowly due to the need to manually decode the preview buffer. Can anyone comment on whether it is possible to use the video recorder as an alternative means of achieving this?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've been trying to develop an application for the android 1.5 sdk version that allows the user to simply recorder a video but it has been a long road. I can record audio with the simple example on the android developers website but when I put the VideoSource and the VideoEncoder lines it gives a 100 error that means that the Camera server died. Here is an example of the code.
recorder.setCamera(mCamera); recorder.setAudioSource(MediaRecorder.AudioSource.MIC);
recorder.setVideoSource(MediaRecorder.VideoSource.CAMERA);
recorder.setOutputFormat(MediaRecorder.OutputFormat.THREE_GPP); recorder.setAudioEncoder(MediaRecorder.AudioEncoder.AMR_NB);
recorder.setOutputFile("/sdcard/dcim/Camera/test.3gp");
recorder.setVideoEncoder(MediaRecorder.VideoEncoder.MPEG_4_SP);
recorder.prepare(); recorder.start(); ...
Here is the debug error messages:

Because my Motorola Droid X and many other phones lacked a front-facing camera, it was impossible for me to find a good application for Video Calling until recently that I found this AIR application. I am happy to know now that I can at least make clear video calls with my device. Oh and did I also mention it was free?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI remarked to my wife that the video shot with my new EVO looked like home movies from when we were kids. I then saw that the EVO shoots at 24 fps which explains the home movie video look. Will/can the Froyo update improve the video and or camera quality? It's not a deal breaker but when you have kids it's nice to have a video camera with you at all times. I've got 3 more weeks left on my 30 day trial period. I know the i Phone 4 will shoot at 30 fps and the test images I've seen are considerably better than my EVO.

I slid out the panel on the screen and chose video, it switches to video but then the camera app just quits and I can't use the video camera. This happens every time I switch to video and I've tried turning my phone off and on again many times and it hasn't fixed the issue. I've searched on line and no one seems to be having this issue. Any ideas?
