Re: [ANNOUNCE] Mirror
 

Ok, I found it. But your app stubbornly refuses to remember that I like "wide-and-low". If it remembered my preference, I'd be happy.

EDIT: Oh, and if you make a settings file, maybe have a "start fullscreen" setting too?

Have you found a way to reduce the frames-per-second? Cutting the fps to 15 would probably improve the image dramatically, at the expense of some real-time motion responsiveness... Maybe another setting?

I notice that the screen flickers a lot; clearly, the device is trying to auto-adjust the brightness. It would be nice to kill that somehow. Hm. Someone who isn't as terrified of Bugzilla as I am should probably should post a bug about that.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Mirror
 

Deal.

That can be set through gstreamer, I'll try and see whether it influences image quality.

This one, however, is a lot deeper, we have no control over camera gain ATM.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Mirror
 

The quality of the picture is terrible. On the right hand side there is some kind of darker bar about 1 cm wide. And the application goes off in about 1 minute.

Thank you for the first working application which uses the front camera. Now we know that it's working and exists.

Maybe this lead to something.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Mirror
 

I think I'll put up a startup notification bar that the image quality and the dark bar is not my doing :)

As for goes off... what do you mean ? The screen-save kicks in, the app crashes, or ?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Mirror
 

I suppose it crashes by itself. If the screen saver goes on it comes on if you unlock screen saver. But there is no crash report alt ought I have reporter on.

I'm sorry not to recognize your startup notification

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Mirror
 

Yes, I noticed that too, the screen goes dark after a short period. Probably you should turn off screen blanking while your app is in the foreground...

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Mirror
 

It is killed after 2 min because .desktop file has X-Osso-Service=org.maemo.mirror, but program is not registered with libosso functions.

So remove X-Osso-Service from .desktop and it doesn't crash or use libosso. But because you are not using anything from libosso or dbus you can just remove it.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Mirror
 

you would think nokia would of improved this by now. thats not much to work with.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Mirror
 

Actually, there is little point going higher res, as there is no device that could display it (remember, this is the videocall cam - how many phones do you know that have significantly better than 640x480 displays ? :) ). It *could* have been a better quality one, though :(

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Mirror
 

The new version gives "much" better picture than earlier. That seems to depend on illumination :p Thanks
