Flashlight/ torch when streaming video

I want to switch on torch on Android devices when tokbox is streaming video, using it as a lantern.

Swith on and off the torch is pretty easy, but if you try when camera is already working it launch a error.

Torch for camera "0" is not available due to an existing camera user

I guess this is expected result, but I've seen some apps using the torch while streaming video.

Any clues? Thanks

Solution

  • I solved it using the camera object inside the custom video capturer, from opentok Android examples.
