android-camera-intent

I'm creating an android app that utilizes the camera to take pictures and then sends them to a server based on user input. I'm currently having some problems with the camera intent. My main problems are : Getting a picture that seems to be rotated when compared to the position it was taken. When I try to fix this Rotation I get an OutOfMemoryError So mainly I need to make sure that the orientation of the picture doesn't change and that I don't get an OutOfMemoryError. Here is the function that uses the camera Intent to take the picture. private void dispatchTakePictureIntent(int actionCode) {

I'm getting a bit confused from this description: The caller may pass an extra EXTRA_OUTPUT to control where this image will be written. If the EXTRA_OUTPUT is not present, then a small sized image is returned as a Bitmap object in the extra field. This is useful for applications that only need a small image. If the EXTRA_OUTPUT is present, then the full-sized image will be written to the Uri value of EXTRA_OUTPUT. With NO EXTRA_OUTPUT , it will return a "small sized image"? With EXTRA_OUTPUT , it will return a full sized image? "Is returned as a Bitmap object in the extra field"... On my

Is it possible to have code similar to the following that does the same for video? if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_CANCELED) { // camera mode was canceled. } else if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) { // Took a picture, use the downsized camera image provided by default Bitmap cameraPic = (Bitmap) data.getExtras().get("data"); if (cameraPic != null) { try { savePic(cameraPic); } catch (Exception e) { Log.e(DEBUG_TAG, "saveAvatar() with camera image failed.", e); } } What I am trying to do is to be able to take a video using the Camera Intent and save that video or a copy of that video to

I am using the camera intent to launch the camera in my app but as soon as the intent gets fired the onActivityResult gets fired and I have not even taken a picture yet. When I do take a picture, select it and return back to my activity the onActivityResult does not get called at all here is how I launch the camera PackageManager pm = getPackageManager(); if (pm.hasSystemFeature(PackageManager.FEATURE_CAMERA)) { Intent camera = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE); File tempDir = new File(Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(Environment.DIRECTORY_PICTURES),"Mobile Map"); if (

I am able to open the device's Camera from my Activity using an Intent as follows: Intent cameraIntent = new Intent(android.provider.MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE); Uri fileUri = getOutputMediaFileUri(); cameraIntent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, fileUri); cameraIntent.putExtra("android.intent.extras.CAMERA_FACING", 1); startActivityForResult(cameraIntent, CAMERA_REQUEST); My problem is my Activity is set to Landscape mode, so when the camera is opened, it is also opened in Landscape mode - but I need to open the Camera in Portrait mode only. So please let me know how can I do this when

I've been needing to get a solution for this problem. I've already searched and tested many solutions from this community but anyone was fit for helping me. I have two activities, the first one takes a picture and sends it to another which has an ImageView to receive that (until here i'm getting problems) and a query to insert the file path in the database (the code which do this last part is well). I guess its better for the View load an Image Low Resolution as a Thumbnail. Therefore, to save into the database i wanna get the whole path from a full size picture. Whether possible the images

I'm in the middle of an Android app which takes a picture, crops it and does some extra stuff. I was hoping to do my own cropping system , but the problem comes when I test in different places. Pictures appear rotated in some cases, and not correctly cropped in others (like they had an extra margin around (seeing extra space of the original picture), or so). More on that, I've considered using Intents . This would release me from the picture taking madness, the cropping, and would add an interesting "get from gallery" option, which I haven't implemented yet. Crop intent may not be in every
