I want camera preview left and right reverse,
and I search for google, answer is use Matrix
is it right answer?
first, my source.
MainActivity.class
private Agen agen = null;
protected static Activity mainActivity = null;
#Override
protected void onCreate(final Bundle savedInstanceState) {
agen = new Agen();
agen.CameraSetting();
}
public static Activity getMainActivity() {

context = activity;
liveFrame = (FrameLayout) activity.findViewById(R.id.liveview);
public boolean CameraSetting() {
boolean state = false;
try {
LiveCam livecam = CamManage.getInstance();
camLiveView = new CamLiveView(context, livecam, this);
if (liveFrame != null)
liveFrame.addView(camLiveView);
state = true;
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} return state;
}
CamManage.class
private static Camera mCamera = null;
public static LiveCam getInstance() {
if (mCamera == null) {
int cameras = Camera.getNumberOfCameras();
mCamera = Camera.open(0);
if (mCamera != null) {
mCamera.lock();
}
} else {
}
return getLiveCam();
}
getLiveCam
static private LiveCam getLiveCam() {
LiveCam livecam = new LiveCam() ;
Camera.Parameters params = mCamera.getParameters();
liveCam.preSize = params.getPreviewSize();
liveCam.preFormat = params.getPreviewFormat();
liveCam.camera = mCamera;
return liveCam;
}
LiveCam.class
public class LiveCam {
public Camera camera;
public Camera.Size preSize;
public int preFormat;
}
this my source.
but I don't know where use matrix part.
in other words, I want camera preview left and right reverse.
please advice for me
thanks.

I have an app for face detection, thus I need to open the camera when the app is launched, I have looked into the similar problems yet I can't find a solution to the problem I currently have now. The problem is that the function SurfaceCreated(ISurfaceHolder holder) is not being called, thus, the camera is not being launched. Thanks for the response

You are creating a SurfaceView with no layout params and thus its size it 0,0 and thus a surface would never need to be created.
Full screen:
var layoutParams = new ViewGroup.LayoutParams(ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MatchParent, ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MatchParent);
var view = new SurfaceView(someContext)
{
LayoutParameters = layoutParams
};
Or Parent the SurfaceView to a container in your layout
var aViewGroup = FindViewById<ViewGroup>(Resource.Id.SomeContainer);
aViewGroup.AddView(yourSurfaceView, new LayoutParams(MATCH_PARENT, WRAP_CONTENT));
Fixed the issue:
I have created another type of view underneath my
AppName.Droid.CameraControls.CameraLiveStream
So it became like this
<AppName.Droid.Camera.Controls.CameraLiveStream>
<AppName.Droid.Camera.Controls.Overlay>
</AppName.Droid.Camera.Controls.Overlay>
</AppName.Droid.Camera.Controls.CameraLiveStream>
Wherein I the overlay inherited the View which implements the width/height of the view.
public int mPrevWidth { get => mWidth; set => mWidth = value; }
public int mPrevHeight { get => mHeight; set => mHeight = value; }
public float mPrevWidthScaleFactor { get => mWidthScaleFactor; set => mWidthScaleFactor = value; }
public float mPrevHeightScaleFactor { get => mHeightScaleFactor; set => mHeightScaleFactor = value; }
public CameraFacing mCameraFacing { get => mFacing; set => mFacing = value; }
In my android app i have activity containing a surfaceview. I want to start the surfaceview thread when the surfaceview/activity is visible to user. I have tried starting the thread in OnSurfaceCreated. That works but on some mobiles(samsung) The activity takes many seconds to become visible.The screen turns black when i resume activity. So i googled and found that when a view becomes visible onFocusChanged is called. I tried implementing OnFocusChanged in surfaceview but it is never called. below is my surfaceview class.

I gonna show a preview using a PopupWindow based on AirView feature of Samsung SPen
But the problem is that the SurfaceView is not created and non of the SurfaceHolder.Callback methods are called.
The surface region becomes transparent when the popup is displayed because the surface is not created at all.
SurfaceView is not created and is transparent:
HoverPreview:
public class HoverPreview extends LinearLayout implements View.OnHoverListener, SurfaceHolder.Callback {
private static final String TAG = "HoverPreview";
private SurfaceHolder mHolder = null;
View mAnchorView = null;
String videoPath;
int position;
private boolean IsMediaPlayerReady = false;
private MediaPlayer mMediaPlayer;
private SurfaceView mSurfaceView;
Context context;
public HoverPreview(Context context, String videoPath, int position) {
super(context);
this.videoPath = videoPath;
this.position = position;
setupLayout(context);
}
public HoverPreview(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
setupLayout(context);
}
public HoverPreview(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
super(context, attrs, defStyle);
setupLayout(context);
}
private void setupLayout(Context context) {
this.context = context;
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) context.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
inflater.inflate(R.layout.media_browser_hover, this);
}
#Override
protected void onFinishInflate() {
super.onFinishInflate();
}
#Override
public void surfaceCreated(SurfaceHolder surfaceHolder) {
Log.d(TAG, "HoverSurface created");
final Surface surface = surfaceHolder.getSurface();
if (surface == null) return;
if (!surface.isValid()) return;
mHolder = surfaceHolder;
mMediaPlayer = new MediaPlayer();
try {
mMediaPlayer.setDataSource(videoPath);
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
mMediaPlayer.setDisplay(mHolder);
mAnchorView.setTag(mMediaPlayer);
mMediaPlayer.setOnVideoSizeChangedListener(new MediaPlayer.OnVideoSizeChangedListener() {
#Override
public void onVideoSizeChanged(MediaPlayer mediaPlayer, int i, int i2) {
mHolder.setFixedSize(i, i2);
}
});
mMediaPlayer.setOnPreparedListener(new MediaPlayer.OnPreparedListener() {

if (mMediaPlayer != null && IsMediaPlayerReady) {
if (position > 0)
mMediaPlayer.seekTo(position);
mMediaPlayer.start();
}
}
});

try {
mMediaPlayer.prepare();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
#Override

}
#Override

if (mMediaPlayer != null) {
mMediaPlayer.stop();
mMediaPlayer.release();
//thumbnailImageView.setTag(null);
}
}
public void setAnchorView(View view) {
mAnchorView = view;
}
#Override
public boolean onHover(View view, MotionEvent motionEvent) {
try {
if (motionEvent.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_HOVER_ENTER) {
Log.d(TAG, "ACTION_HOVER_ENTER");
mSurfaceView = (SurfaceView) findViewById(R.id.media_browser_hoverSurfaceView);
mHolder = mSurfaceView.getHolder();
if (mHolder != null) {
mHolder.addCallback(this);
}
} else if (motionEvent.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_HOVER_EXIT) {
Log.d(TAG, "ACTION_HOVER_EXIT");
if (mAnchorView.getTag() != null) {
MediaPlayer mMediaPlayer = (MediaPlayer) mAnchorView.getTag();
mMediaPlayer.stop();
mMediaPlayer.release();
mAnchorView.setTag(null);
}
}
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.e(TAG, e.getMessage() + Utils.toString(e.getStackTrace()));
}
return false;
}
}
The code to show the preview:
final PopupWindow popupWindow = new PopupWindow(context);
final HoverPreview hoverPreview = new HoverPreview(context, videoPath, 0);
hoverPreview.setAnchorView(thumbnailImageView);
thumbnailImageView.setOnHoverListener(new View.OnHoverListener() {
#Override
public boolean onHover(View view, MotionEvent motionEvent) {
hoverPreview.onHover(view, motionEvent);
if (motionEvent.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_HOVER_ENTER) {
popupWindow.setContentView(hoverPreview);
popupWindow.setWidth(600);
popupWindow.setHeight(400);
popupWindow.showAtLocation(thumbnailImageView, ToolHoverPopup.Gravity.NO_GRAVITY, 10, 10);
Log.d(TAG, "Manual Hover Enter");
} else if (motionEvent.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_HOVER_EXIT) {
Log.d(TAG, "Manual Hover Exit");
if (popupWindow != null)
popupWindow.dismiss();
}
return true;
});
Here's my complete working solution:
I borrowed some code from ToolHoverPopup class from SPen library, also I customized for this special popup so that nothing is created or inflated until the actual hovering is happened so that we don't consume resources for enabling such a preview in lists.
We need to have our preview attached to a Window so because of this we have to manage all the underlying job of positioning which is normally done by PopupWindow, so I completely removed the dependency on the PopupWindow and now my HoverPreview class is fully working and manages all the jobs, also it has the ability to determine the Hover Detection delay in milliseconds.
Screenshot (SurfaceView is created)
Usage: (Since the layout contains SurfaceView and is resource intensive, I manually trigger onHover event so that the real surface creation is performed only when the real hover is performed. Also by this, I don't create any object of HoverPreview before it's needed)
thumbnailImageView.setOnHoverListener(new View.OnHoverListener() {
#Override
public boolean onHover(View view, MotionEvent motionEvent) {
HoverPreview hoverPreview;
if (thumbnailImageView.getTag() == null) {
hoverPreview = new HoverPreview(context, getActivity().getWindow(), videoPath, 0);
hoverPreview.setHoverDetectTime(1000);
thumbnailImageView.setTag(hoverPreview);
} else
hoverPreview = (HoverPreview) thumbnailImageView.getTag();
hoverPreview.onHover(null, motionEvent);
if (motionEvent.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_HOVER_EXIT)
thumbnailImageView.setTag(null);
return true;
}
});

I would remove the onLayout from your Activity and add it to the SurfaceView, should work like this:
private CustomSurfaceView surfaceView; //line 4.
class CustomSurfaceView extends SurfaceView { //at the end of your Activity
public CSurfaceView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
}
#Override
protected void onLayout(boolean changed, int left, int top, int right, int bottom) {
}
}
This way your SurfaceView will not be affected by any layout changes.

The usage of this class:
public class History extends Activity {
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
......
camera = new CameraView(this);
}
#Override
public void onResume() {
super.onResume();
Log.i("History.class", "onResume called!");
camera.startCamera();
}
#Override
public void onPause() {
super.onPause();
camera.stopCamera();
}
}
I've debugged the code, and I notice that the camera object is being intitalized, but there is nothing appearing on the screen, it should have previewed the camera. Could anyone see whats wrong with this approach?
Thanks.
