How to flip (reverse) video image in AVin app? - MTCD Android Head Units Q&A

I installed a front cam and connected it to aux video in cable so it shows picture in AVIN app. The problem is, the picture is mirrored like on a rear cam and the camera itself doesn't have an option to reverse image.
Is there any way to reverse image in the app itself or is there some other app that could use video input and has that option. Or is there a way to modify AVIN app so it shows normal image?
Please guys I need some help with this one.

I wonder if it is the camera itself that is reversed? Can you test it with another input?

Sorry, I didn't explain that clearly. The camera is meant to be in the back (hence the mirrored image), but unlike other cameras it doesn't have a loop wire to cut or any other way to change that built in mirrored mode. Fortunately I managed to locate front cam pin on my device so I connected it to that and the f-cam app has the ability to switch between the two modes. So I guess, problem solved

Front / Rear Camera

Hi. I have PX3 unit and want to connect rear and front camera ( Front only for parking), and i have problems....
So rear camera connected to : CCD AV in and to "back" and working fine when im switch to rear gear its opens automaticly in AVIN app.
But problem is front camera. I enable "front camera" in factory settings. Also enable DVR as CVBS., and switch to front camera after reverse.
And here problems starts.
I have 2 yellow RCA connectors in my unit: Video IN and DR-V
If i put it on Video IN i can open AVIN app and i can see front camera view , and black screen in DVR app
If i put it on DRV connector, i see front camera in DRV app and black screen in AVIN
But when i switch to reverse gear and then put front gear ( enabled switch to front camera after reverse) i see only yellow sign.
Its annoying to swich always to AVIN app cuz its mute radio and i neet to turn it on again after close AVIN
I have app "F-cam" but there is only black screen with yellow sign. Is there some option to usee only this app for rear and front camera? As there is button to switch cameras and it would be nice....
Pls help me guys to solve that problem... Many thx !
EDIT: hmmm i cant add images ;/ i've made album : https://ibb.co/album/fhm4wF

Hello just joined for tech support.
[Mod Moved to MTCD], your unit is probably an MTCD. Use CAM In on Connector K, and if that doesnt work, contact your reseller.

Only front camera or both? And for front camera use Video in or DR-v ?
EDIT: CAM in - is used by rear cam
Connector K - 3V output no matter what so i think its not correct cable to connect...
And i dont have free cables more... So F-cam app dont work at all... Rear cam induct AVIN screen, and nothing working for F-cam app i lost my hope...
I will ask my question, because eventually it may have a solution by changing the rom (as shown here).
So it's like this: I have an Isudar, in my car Mercedes w203 (2002), with android 7.1.2. It's working ... well.
Of course, I was left without the radio station ID, the dashboard instead shows a dash, and pressing the non-nude station switch button for the next preset station starts the search for another station. Apart from that it satisfies.
As I knew I could have other kind of elements added, I started installing a sim card to have Internet (although 3G), but it satisfies and I already put a reversing camera, no problem and it is working. But when trying to attach a front camera the question arose.
One of the cameras I bought, via USB, is not recognized by the system, but recognizes the application built into the camera which once installed continues to say that "there is a problem plugging in the USB plug" and / or the SD built into the camera. I searched the net and saw some that gave, but with radios of other brands, or with cameras of other brands, but more expensive, which I do not risk buying, because of the uncertainty of its operation.
If i connect the camera to my phone, no problem, install the app and show the image, record and that's fine. The difference is that on the mobile phone the connection is made by OTG (USB to micro USB) and the image is very good. In the car, with the connection made and the application open, the SD will record - with a non-current date (maybe the date of manufacture) - and show the movies with some quality.
With this camera was not for me I ordered another to connect in the rear of the radio via RCA plugs. And, only an application that comes on the radio (DVR) allows image if it is connected to RCA CVBS, but does not allow any recording. I will add photos to know if the reported problem can be solved without touching the software installed at the factory or if it will only be solved by installing a new ROM and, if so, if the radio has the proper specifications.
In advance, I am very grateful.

[GCam] Camera and video mode not working

Hi everyone,
So I have finally found the working (almost) GCam for Blackview BV9800Pro. Tried all developers apps and I found that this app https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/cfiles/gcm1/Gcam_6.1.021_Advanced_V1.6-Fu24_5Lens-02b-A10.apk or any other by @fu24 which has "A10" at the end does not crash.
I am able to shoot panoramic, lens blur and photosphere images. However, in camera mode no photo is shkt is made when I click shotter button, it acts like it captured image, but there ia no image in galery. Also, when I switch to video mode the app crashes. Portrait mode and nightshot also does not seem to work...
P.S, when I go to this app settings -> about, it says that this app is based on MGC_6.1.021_MI8_V2e.
I have tried to install this one just to check maybe this one works, but got message "app was not installed".
Ideas?
Have anyone faced such issue or have an idea what could be wrong? Maybe GCam developer could take a look at this issue?

Main Camera stopped working, how to make the wide angle camera as main camera to be used by apps as default ?

I have to login to my bank account and I need to scan a photoTAN image but the app by default uses the main camera which is broken, is there any way to make the wide screen back camera as the default one to be used by apps on my phone?
Any ideas anyone?
I'm also searching for the same issue but no answer
This post may give you an idea:
Change default rear camera?
Hey guys, My main rear camera is broken and I was wondering if my default camera can be changed to the wide-angle lens, because the wide angle lens works fine. The phone is a Moto X4 and it has a dual rear camera set up. So my question is...

Question Does uis7862 supports AHD Camera on front camera input?

I know that it supports up to AHD1080 using the rear cam RCA input.
Does it supports it also using the front camera input? Anyone knows?
Wanted to change my front camera with a better resolution one but I have no idea if it supports it.

I connected the CVBS IN1 to a front AHD1080 camera on my Teyes Unit (uis7862) If that helps.

It does for 3 seconds, I had to enable this in the units settings app. Check if you have this setting ?

Are you sure your front camera was AHD1080?
Just tried both 720 and 1080 AHD and didnt work, only CVBS signal
No setting anywhere on those units to change video signal , only for the rear input
The title of the camera I bought it AHD 1080P/720P Car Front View Camera and says "Before buying, please check if your Monitor or Android unit Car radio can support AHD."

I've seen some listings for cams that some mention snipping a specific wire to enable/disable AHD, check your manual if it came with one

This one is AHD only
It works just fine If I plug it on rear cam input.
Perhaps the issue is that the rear cam is AHD1080 and the front one is AHD720

No, AHD is AHD.
You really need an AHD chip on your motherboard to be able to use an AHD camera and then it doesn't matter whether it is 720p or 1080p.
If it works for your reverse camera then obviously your reseller didn't configure it for your front camera.
Also: did you contact your reseller and asked him?

There is a option to choose the codec for video signal for reverve, NTSC, PAL, AHD720 25fps, AHD1080 25 fps etc.
If you have AHD1080 camera it will only work if the correct option is selected, same for AHD720.
I dont have a option for front camera video signal, but will try to reach the reseller.

Yes, you are right that you need to select the correct configuration, but if you have the AHD chip it will support both 1080p and 720p. There is no 720p AHD chip or 1080p AHD chip.

This I Know but if you have to manually select the codec for the rear camera to work. In my case, I choose AHD1080 25 fps.
Its logical to think that for it to work, the front camera would have to be AHD1080 also since there is no selector for it
And so a AHD 720 camera wouldnt work
Found out the solution
You have to install fcam.apk (I didnt have this) so then you can open and configure the video codec for the front input

Hi could you elaborate on this? Front cam app apears if you enable Front cam in the factory settings menu at least in my mekede m6 pro plus unit. But i also coulnt find yet how to select ahd for front cam or for any cam for that matter. Currently i have cvbs front camera which works but would like to upgrade to an AHD. Also couldnt figure out how to configure for how long the video feed should be shown. In my previous Dasaita (whihc only supported cvbs cam) there was an option under factory settings to configure just this

I found out that mye 7862 unit was a topwau TS10. I got the foam.apk from a Russian board (4pda) and that works
I can upload it for you if you want to test it out

Fcam
MediaFire is a simple to use free service that lets you put all your photos, documents, music, and video in a single place so you can access them anywhere and share them everywhere.
www.mediafire.com
When you open the software, click on the screen and you will get the settings icon. On there you should now have a second panel to change the video signal as you wish.

Question Digiscoping with the Samsung GalaxyS22 Ultra

I mount the phone in a phone skope digiscoping adapter, then fit the adapter on the scope eyepiece. The magnified image begins to appear on the phone but then the phone switches to a different lens. The image on the phone is now a blur of color because the functional lens is aligned with the opaque part of the phone adapter.
Can the lens-switching feature be turned off so I can use only one lens in aiming and focusing the image?
Thanks
Doug
If i remember correctly, the "Expert RAW" application lets you choose the lens to work with and does not change to another lens.
Look for it in the Galaxy Store.
There might be other photo apps that also support "locking" the camera, but i'm not aware of (did not need this until now).
Pro mode in the regular camera app lets you pick lens/sensor and it sticks to it. Standard photo mode keeps switching but it sticks to the 108mp ("1x") sensor if you enable "3:4 108mp" mode.
Thank you
camera assistant app has the option to disable auto lens switching too.
