Multiscreen Support in android : Camera preview is stretched in Samsung Galaxy s4 mini issue android

This is my Preview class to take a picture : it's working perfectly with many devices but Android Samsung Galaxy S4 shows me bad result => the problem that the image is stretched when preview.
You can see the image below :
Here is my code :
class Preview extends ViewGroup implements SurfaceHolder.Callback {
private final String TAG = "Preview";
SurfaceView mSurfaceView;
SurfaceHolder mHolder;
Camera.Size mPreviewSize;
List<Camera.Size> mSupportedPreviewSizes;
Camera mCamera;
Preview(Context context, SurfaceView sv) {
super(context);
mSurfaceView = sv;
mHolder = mSurfaceView.getHolder();
mHolder.addCallback(this);
mHolder.setType(SurfaceHolder.SURFACE_TYPE_PUSH_BUFFERS);
}
public void setCamera(Camera camera) {
mCamera = camera;
if (mCamera != null) {
mSupportedPreviewSizes = mCamera.getParameters().getSupportedPreviewSizes();
requestLayout();
// get Camera parameters
Camera.Parameters params = mCamera.getParameters();
List<String> focusModes = params.getSupportedFocusModes();
try {
if (focusModes.contains(Camera.Parameters.FOCUS_MODE_CONTINUOUS_PICTURE)) {
params.setFocusMode(Camera.Parameters.FOCUS_MODE_CONTINUOUS_PICTURE);
} else if (focusModes.contains(Camera.Parameters.FOCUS_MODE_AUTO)) {
params.setFocusMode(Camera.Parameters.FOCUS_MODE_AUTO);
}
else if (focusModes.contains(Camera.Parameters.FOCUS_MODE_INFINITY)) {
params.setFocusMode(Camera.Parameters.FOCUS_MODE_INFINITY);
}
mCamera.setParameters(params);
}
catch (Exception e) {
}
}
}
#Override
protected void onMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec) {
// We purposely disregard child measurements because act as a
// wrapper to a SurfaceView that centers the camera preview instead
// of stretching it.
final int width = resolveSize(getSuggestedMinimumWidth(), widthMeasureSpec);
final int height = resolveSize(getSuggestedMinimumHeight(), heightMeasureSpec);
setMeasuredDimension(width, height);
if (mSupportedPreviewSizes != null) {
mPreviewSize = getOptimalPreviewSize(mSupportedPreviewSizes, width, height);
}
}
#Override
protected void onLayout(boolean changed, int l, int t, int r, int b) {
if (changed && getChildCount() > 0) {
final View child = getChildAt(0);
final int width = r - l;
final int height = b - t;
int previewWidth = width;
int previewHeight = height;
if (mPreviewSize != null) {
previewWidth = mPreviewSize.width;
previewHeight = mPreviewSize.height;
}
// Center the child SurfaceView within the parent.
if (width * previewHeight > height * previewWidth) {
final int scaledChildWidth = previewWidth * height / previewHeight;
child.layout((width - scaledChildWidth) / 2, 0,
(width + scaledChildWidth) / 2, height);
} else {
final int scaledChildHeight = previewHeight * width / previewWidth;
child.layout(0, (height - scaledChildHeight) / 2,
width, (height + scaledChildHeight) / 2);
}
}
}
public void surfaceCreated(SurfaceHolder holder) {
// The Surface has been created, acquire the camera and tell it where
// to draw.
try {
if (mCamera != null) {
mCamera.setPreviewDisplay(holder);
}
} catch (IOException exception) {
Log.e(TAG, "IOException caused by setPreviewDisplay()", exception);
}
}
public void surfaceDestroyed(SurfaceHolder holder) {
// Surface will be destroyed when we return, so stop the preview.
if (mCamera != null) {
mCamera.stopPreview();
}
}
private Camera.Size getOptimalPreviewSize(List<Camera.Size> sizes, int w, int h) {
final double ASPECT_TOLERANCE = 0.1;
double targetRatio = (double) w / h;
if (sizes == null) return null;
Camera.Size optimalSize = null;
double minDiff = Double.MAX_VALUE;
int targetHeight = h;
// Try to find an size match aspect ratio and size
for (Camera.Size size : sizes) {
double ratio = (double) size.width / size.height;
if (Math.abs(ratio - targetRatio) > ASPECT_TOLERANCE) continue;
if (Math.abs(size.height - targetHeight) < minDiff) {
optimalSize = size;
minDiff = Math.abs(size.height - targetHeight);
}
}
// Cannot find the one match the aspect ratio, ignore the requirement
if (optimalSize == null) {
minDiff = Double.MAX_VALUE;
for (Camera.Size size : sizes) {
if (Math.abs(size.height - targetHeight) < minDiff) {
optimalSize = size;
minDiff = Math.abs(size.height - targetHeight);
}
}
}
return optimalSize;
}
public void surfaceChanged(SurfaceHolder holder, int format, int w, int h) {
if(mCamera != null) {
if (mPreviewSize!=null){
Camera.Parameters parameters = mCamera.getParameters();
parameters.setPreviewSize(mPreviewSize.width, mPreviewSize.height);
requestLayout();
mCamera.setParameters(parameters);
mCamera.startPreview();
}
}
}
}
I want to keep image support Multiscreen in android after preview.

To not have a stretched image or preview , you should choose a previewSize that keep the same ratio as the screen of the phone. Then , you should set it before launching and starting the camera. Try this code :
public void setCamera(Camera camera, int screenW, int screenH) {
//screenW ==> screen width of the phone in Pixels
//screenH ==> screen height of the phone in Pixels
mCamera = camera;
if (mCamera != null) {
mSupportedPreviewSizes = mCamera.getParameters().getSupportedPreviewSizes();
if (mSupportedPreviewSizes != null) {
mPreviewSize = getOptimalPreviewSize(mSupportedPreviewSizes, screenW
, screenH);
}
requestLayout();
// get Camera parameters
Camera.Parameters params = mCamera.getParameters();
if (mPreviewSize != null)
params.setPreviewSize(mPreviewSize.width, mPreviewSize.height);
List<String> focusModes = params.getSupportedFocusModes();
try {
if (focusModes.contains(Camera.Parameters.FOCUS_MODE_CONTINUOUS_PICTURE)) {
params.setFocusMode(Camera.Parameters.FOCUS_MODE_CONTINUOUS_PICTURE);
} else if (focusModes.contains(Camera.Parameters.FOCUS_MODE_AUTO)) {
params.setFocusMode(Camera.Parameters.FOCUS_MODE_AUTO);
} else if (focusModes.contains(Camera.Parameters.FOCUS_MODE_INFINITY)) {
params.setFocusMode(Camera.Parameters.FOCUS_MODE_INFINITY);
}
mCamera.setParameters(params);
Log.i(TAG, " getPreviewSize " + mCamera.getParameters().getPreviewSize().width + " X "
+ mCamera.getParameters().getPreviewSize().height);
Log.i(TAG, " getPictureSize " + mCamera.getParameters().getPictureSize().width + " X "
+ mCamera.getParameters().getPictureSize().height);
} catch (Exception e) {
}
}
}

Camera is inverted in Nexus device

I am trying to create custom camera preview logic that actually works properly, for all scenarios:
any device: phone, tablet
any camera: front-facing, rear-facing
android.hardware.Camera
My android:minSdkVersion is 14 and android:targetSdkVersion is 21.
I have implemented custom camera preview class to set display orientation for camera preview and working very well for all devices without only Nexus devices. Nexus devices have I think default 180 orientation.
While I am starting my camera in Nexus devices it is showing inverted. To overcome with i have checked with Build.MANUFACTURER & Build.MODEL to identify the device and set orientation according to it.
if (Build.MODEL.equals("Nexus 6P") && Build.MANUFACTURER.equals("Huawei")) mCamera.setDisplayOrientation(90);
else mCamera.setDisplayOrientation(270);
But it is not working. So can anyone have idea to overcome with this and recommended way !! Advance help would be appreciated !!

As far as I know this problem doesn't occur on Nexus 5. I had to deal with it on a Nexus 5X and I lost some time trying(Click here to see why). As a big note, I can't guarantee that it's the best solution, but it fixed all the problems I had. To solve it I did something like this:
I created a class CameraPreview extends SurfaceView only to encapsulate all the preview initialisation in one place. Here is the constructor for that class:
public CameraPreview(Context context, int screenRotation, Camera camera) {
super(context);
mCamera = camera;
mScreenRotation = screenRotation;
mHolder = getHolder();
mHolder.addCallback(this);
setFocusable(true);
setFocusableInTouchMode(true);
}
To create the preview I used this: mPreview = new CameraPreview(getContext(), screenRotation, mCamera);, where screenRotation is int screenRotation = getActivity().getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getRotation();
When the surfaceCreated callback is called:
public void surfaceCreated(SurfaceHolder holder) {
try {
mCamera.setPreviewDisplay(holder);
setCameraDisplayOrientation(mScreenRotation, 0, mCamera);
Here,0 comes from the cameraId (it might be different if you're using the front facing camera). And here is all the magic:
public void setCameraDisplayOrientation(int screenRotation, int cameraId, Camera camera) {
int rotation = getRotationAngle(screenRotation, cameraId);
camera.setDisplayOrientation(rotation);
}
public static int getRotationAngle(int screenRotation, int cameraId) {
Camera.CameraInfo info = new Camera.CameraInfo();
android.hardware.Camera.getCameraInfo(cameraId, info);
int degrees = 0;
switch (screenRotation) {
case Surface.ROTATION_0: degrees = 0; break;
case Surface.ROTATION_90: degrees = 90; break;
case Surface.ROTATION_180: degrees = 180; break;
case Surface.ROTATION_270: degrees = 270; break;
}
int result;
if (info.facing == Camera.CameraInfo.CAMERA_FACING_FRONT) {
result = (info.orientation + degrees) % 360;
result = (360 - result) % 360; // compensate the mirror
} else { // back-facing
result = (info.orientation - degrees + 360) % 360;
}
return result;
}
I hope that this will fix the problem, but before starting to write it, make sure that you read the link I provided to see why the problem takes place. Hope this will fix it for you too.

camera preview portrait setParameters failed

I want to get a full screen portrait camera preview. Using Google's sample, the preview is in landscape format across the portrait screen. When I set to the preview to 480 x 864, the reverse of working landscape dimensions, I get a setParameters failed error.
I have read all the StackOverflow I can find, but I can't figure why dimensions supported in landscape fail in portrait. Nor can I find a way to force full screen portrait preview. The Camera app on the phone provides full screen portrait preview so I know it is not a hardware limitation.
I'm testing with a Droid 3 running Android 2.3.3
I would appreciate any suggestions.

Camera preview stretched even after setting the correct dimensions

I'm creating a camera app that implements it's own camera preview for taking pictures.
The app is currently forced into portrait mode.
My problem is that the preview from the camera is slightly stretched (the aspect ratio is a bit off).
The funny thing is that I'm setting my SurfaceView size to always match the preview size. This ensures that the aspect ratio should always be perserved... but it isn't...
Here is the layout i use to show my camera preview:

Please note that in onLayout width and height are swapped because the app is always running in portrait.
I'm including some pictures to show you what the problem looks like:
I've debugged the code. The preview size is being set to 1280x720 and the size of the layout is also being correctly adjusted to match that size.
I've also tried different layouts but the result was always the same...

I was having the same problem, after some days in this puzzle, my Java class end up on this code:
So, The problem was happening because the camera display had a size (hight x width) 576x720, and my display was 1184x720. So, the camera preview (my surface view class) stretched to fill in the parent.
So, the approach that worked is to make this view bigger than my screen, and that just display the area of my screen. So, I had to use this weird frame combination (a relative layout inside a linearlayout), so that the size of the relative will be as big as I want - the surface view will fill in it -, and the linear will take just the part that I wanna display.

I have been trying to solve the same issue... Below code worked for me:
private void setMyPreviewSize(int width, int height) {
// Get the set dimensions
float newProportion = (float) width / (float) height;
// Get the width of the screen
int screenWidth = getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getWidth();
int screenHeight = getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getHeight();
float screenProportion = (float) screenWidth / (float) screenHeight;
// Get the SurfaceView layout parameters
android.view.ViewGroup.LayoutParams lp = surfaceView.getLayoutParams();
if (newProportion > screenProportion) {
lp.width = screenWidth;
lp.height = (int) ((float) screenWidth / newProportion );
} else {
lp.width = (int) (newProportion * (float) screenHeight);
lp.height = screenHeight;
}
// Commit the layout parameters
surfaceView.setLayoutParams(lp);
}
You can see the thread: Resizing surface view for aspect ratio change in video display in android

Here's a solution
surfaceChanged is just to get the best preview size
#Override
public void surfaceChanged(SurfaceHolder holder, int format, int width, int height) {
Log.e("MYTAG", "surfaceChanged " );
Camera.Parameters myParameters = camera.getParameters();
Camera.Size myBestSize = getBestPreviewSize(width, height, myParameters);
if(myBestSize != null){
myParameters.setPreviewSize(myBestSize.width, myBestSize.height);
camera.setParameters(myParameters);
camera.startPreview();

This will set the captured image on imageReview, but you need a method to get the rotation of the bitmap
you need to set imageView scaleType attribute for stretched image issue
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/imageView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:scaleType="centerCrop"
/>
