Well it kinda sorta works. The controls on the right work, nothing else does (including the focussing).

Thanks for trying. Does the console say anything interesting for the stuff that doesn't work?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Mirror
 

Okay folks, version 2.0-1 is in extras-devel. It finally knows it's own name, fullscreens, zooms, knows about 16:9 and almost everything that was mentioned in this thread. Those with extras-devel enabled, please take a peek before I promote to extras-testing (the black band is still there - it's officially a "fixed in Fremantle"). Image quality is still horrible, we'll work on that once the usability kinks are ironed out.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Mirror
 

Not much feedback, must mean everything works, eh ? :)

Anyway, people with extras-testing enabled, PLEASE take a look and thumb up/down so we could (finally) get this into extras. Thank you.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Mirror
 

Ok, it works, but here are some problems:

• Icon is too big for desktop
• Image is square, it should be cropped, top and bottom, to fill the whole screen
• App starts windowed, it should start fullscreen
• The quality of the image is terrible -- like UHF TV from a distant station.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Mirror
 

from my experience with the n97, n95, and n96. this might be an issue with the camera as all of them have pretty grainy quality.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Mirror
 

does any one know how many mp the front camera on the n900 has.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Mirror
 

I'm not sure how big a problem that is: we're looking for something that will enable the application of a smear of lippy or ensuring the removal of spinach from the teeth, not a device to determine Who Is The Fairest Of Them All.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Mirror
 

Hmm. This is some hildon misunderstanding... the app provides all possible sizes (how do I influence which one is picked by the desktop ?).

I take it you have not found 'toggle wide' in the menu :) BTW the cropped mode lowers resolution and thus makes noise look worse, that's why I chose chose the uncropped one as the default, but I'm not emotionally attached to it, so if you all say 'crop FTW' who am I to contradict :)

Hm. Sure ? I kind of thought people press it once to start, press the X to quit...

Alas, this one is out of my reach. It IS a 640x480 webcam with a chip size that nears the head of a pin... There should be SOME improvement via next firmwares but don't expect wonders. Alternatively, one could implement denoising and hot pixel removal filters, but that's heavy artillery outside the scope of this app...

0.3mpix :) It's 640x480.
