Android Camera in Portrait on SurfaceView
- by Prasanna
Hello,
I tried several things to try to get the camera preview to show up in portrait on a SurfaceView. Nothing worked. I am testing on a Droid that has 2.0.1. I tried:
1) forcing the layout to be portrait by: this.setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE);
2) using
Camera.Parameters parameters = camera.getParameters();
parameters.set("orientation", "portrait");
parameters.setRotation(90);
camera.setParameters(parameters);
Is there something else I can try? If this a bug in Android or the phone how can I make sure that this is the case so that I have proof to inform the client?
Thanks,
Prasanna
