Android camera preview format on tablets 4: 3
I have a 4: 3 tablet (op3n dott) which has front and rear cameras. If I get the preview dimensions with getSupportedPreviewSizes()
, then the current dimensions are reported: b / b>
**Back camera:**
1024*576
720*480
640*480
640*360
352*288
320*240
176*144
**Front camera:**
1280*720
1024*576
640*480
176*144
When I set the size to 1024 * 576 for the rear camera and the preview layout is resized to that size, the image shown in the preview is stretched. If the preview layout is resized to 4: 3, so the image is stretched to 1024 * 768, the image looks fine.
With a front camera and a preview size of 1280 * 720, the preview image is excellent without any gimmicks.
When I use 640x480 preview size for both cameras, the image looks fine.
So the conclusion is that a rear camera with a preview size of 1024 * 576 (16: 9) is a real 4: 3 image.
I have a friend who has an hp touchpad with a similar problem.
My question is , how can I know when the 16: 9 preview image is a real 4: 3 stitched image? Can I use 640x480 preview size for 4: 3 tablets to fix this issue. ?
