Android Front Camera recording video but plays upside down...!

Question

I have managed to create an android application to record videos but the problem is with the orientation of front camera video . The output is not the as per requirements . It gets automatically rotated .

Application orientation is landscape . So, I need to record using front cam in landscape mode.

Nothing is working out .

Answer 1

You might want to look at how the AOSP VideoCamera activity is implementing this:

    if (info.facing == CameraInfo.CAMERA_FACING_FRONT) {
        rotation = (info.orientation - mOrientation + 360) % 360;
    } else {  // back-facing camera
        rotation = (info.orientation + mOrientation) % 360;
    }
