Video capture

I want to explain a friend how to do something: I'm looking for an application that I will be able to make a video capture, but I didn't find anything. someone can help me please?
i cant believe i have to say this but did you try the v i d e o camera?
I must say:
Fail.
I think he means a app to record the video of the device itself, not something else.
b1137 and ywindlass = fail
If you spent some time reading the post and trying to understand you would have known what he was asking.
And sorry, I don't know of a program to do that. I'm sure there are some out there, but my 30 seconds of searching didn't find anything.
I guess he's asking for an app to capture what he's doing in a video rather than a screen grabber.
only solution I can think of would be to take multiple screen shots or record yourself with a camera.
DocRambone has vnc working, Maybe the client/desktop can have a recorder running while remoting via vnc...
And I can't believe that this is what you thought I'm looking for...
I'm talking about app like this: http://www.cyrket.com/p/android/com.bw.picme.local/ but video, not pic..
Thanks

Using the Front Facing Camera with a flash application in browser

How do I access my front-facing camera and mic of my transformer in order to use it on streaming video websites like ChatRoulette or TinyChat etc.
I press choose webcam and the camera doesn't show up as an option.
Is there anyway to fix this? Is this something that should go under app requests?
If a developer can figure this out he could sell it for $$$$$.
I was disappointed in this aswell. Also google chat not working to call landlines.

Joying Intel Reverse Camera, UIServer and RightCamera

Hello,
Trying to do some research on how the Joying Intel Sofia units display the reverse camera, to see if there is a way to implement viewing at any time ( not just during reversing )
Reverse Camera works before Android has finished booting, most likely a basic Linux kernel with camera support, present in one of the SoFIA Virtual Machine partitions.
Once the Android has booted, SYU-1-C9-UIServer-V1.0 takes over, and does the rest. I believe it handles displaying the Reverse Camera video feed, as well as blocking the rest of the android UI from being accessible, and displaying the Video Adjustments overlay UI. Originally I believed that the MCU was taking over the display, but this was contracted when I enabled triple-tap zoom in accessibility settings ( using the AOSP Settings.apk ). I was able to zoom and move the screen around, definitely not the MCU locking us out and doing things on it's own. See video demo here:

If you disable SYU-1-C9-UIServer-V1.0, you will find that placing your vehicle in Reverse no longer automatically displays the Reverse Video UI, or block the Android UI. For those of you with hard buttons, some of them may be disabled while in Reverse gear ( unknown what detects this at this time ). AUX and RightCamera, as well as Sofia-1-C9-ExDvr-V1.0 will display a black video image, or have the current video input image freeze while in Reverse gear. Correct video will be restored once you are out of Reverse Gear.
I also discovered another APK, Sofia-1-C9-RightCamera-V1.0. But this just seems to mirror the AUX input, without Audio. The only way I can launch the RightCamera app is using Nova Launcher's Activities Widget, selecting Sofia-1-C9-RightCamera-V1.0's Main Activity. The upside to this, is unlike the AUX Sofia-1-C9-Aux-V1.0 App, Sofia-1-C9-RightCamera-V1.0 doesn't pick up the audio input, so it doesn't mute all other apps while viewing the video feed. Now I can view my dash camera's live view, which I have hooked up to the AUX input at anytime, really cool! ( need this for reverse!!!! )
Also, Sofia-1-C9-ExDvr-V1.0, when run, always displays a "No video signal detected" message with the cloud background.
Perhaps we can modify Sofia-1-C9-RightCamera-V1.0 to access the Reverse Camera? @gustden, @surfer63, @@AssassinsLament, or anyone else who is knowledgeable with these units and smali, could you guys take a look at UIServer and RightCamera to see if maybe this is possible? I've been looking around, but haven't found anything useful so far.
I have run apktool d on all the Allapp.pkg files, vfor the latest 03_28 firmware, available at pending link if you want to save some time and don't want to run apktool d on them yourself.
I'm also interested in this. Our previous MTCD with RK3188 was able to access the reverse camera with the Fcam app.
Nice find with the Sofia-1-C9-RightCamera-V1.0 :good: Will link to this on home screen to preserve music. Thanks!
OK. Backup camera seems to show up as a rear camera to android.
Try this:
Code:
Reboot Unit.
Install Open Camera ([url]https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.sourceforge.opencamera&hl=en[/url])
Once install is complete reboot unit
Launch the Open Camera app as soon as the unit is back up
stare at the live video of your rear view camera feed displayed.
Photo's don't seem to work in Open Camera. In other camera apps they turn out green. Tiny Camera shows the same green image. Camera MX takes green photos. See attached photos.
If you open the AUX or RightCamera applications, then you can not use any app to view the live feed until you reboot. For some reason they seem to lock the stream preventing other applications from accessing.
I ran across this while calling my friend on the head unit using hangouts. Normally, i do voice only call, i clicked the wrong button (video call) and there i saw my rear camera feed as I was driving. lol. Now if we could only get the aux video input as a front android camera...
I tried using open camera on my joying intel and it works but only if you haven't reversed yet. Once you go into reverse, you will not be able to access the reverse camera again until reboot

Any progress with this?
Also, has anyone found a way to show an image layout (guide lines) on top of front camera? I was trying to find an app that shows an image overlay on top of Android and I found one:
DesignOverlay but the problem is that once enabled it will show on top of all apps. I would like to find out a way to just show an image overlay on top of Sofia-1-C9-RightCamera-V1.0. This way I could use my own .png file to show guide lines that match perfectly my car (.png created with real life measurements around the car).
Any ideas? Practically I would need an app that launches two apps at the same time and exits both once the app is exited.

Question While on video, change cameras?

I have an issue where I would love to change from my rear to front camera while taking a video.
I have seen on various websites and YouTube that social media apps allow you to switch your camera while taking a video. My question is is there a way to do this without using social media apps? Do you have to use tasker? Is there some function in settings on Android?
Anyone have any luck on this?
EDIT: When I download 3rd party app flipcam, the app says I don't have permissions even when I give the app permissions.
