Get full screen preview with Android camera2


I'm building a custom camera using the new camera2 API. My code is based on the code sample provided by Google here.

I can't find a way to get the camera preview in full screen. In the code sample, they use ratio optimization to adapt to all screens but it's only taking around 3/4 of the screen's height.

Here is my code of AutoFitTextureView :

public class AutoFitTextureView extends TextureView {

private int mRatioWidth = 0;
private int mRatioHeight = 0;

public AutoFitTextureView(Context context) {
    this(context, null);
}

public AutoFitTextureView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
    this(context, attrs, 0);
}

public AutoFitTextureView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
    super(context, attrs, defStyle);
}

/**
 * Sets the aspect ratio for this view. The size of the view will be measured based on the ratio
 * calculated from the parameters. Note that the actual sizes of parameters don't matter, that
 * is, calling setAspectRatio(2, 3) and setAspectRatio(4, 6) make the same result.
 *
 * @param width  Relative horizontal size
 * @param height Relative vertical size
 */
public void setAspectRatio(int width, int height) {
    if (width < 0 || height < 0) {
        throw new IllegalArgumentException("Size cannot be negative.");
    }
    mRatioWidth = width;
    mRatioHeight = height;
    requestLayout();
}

@Override
protected void onMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec) {
    super.onMeasure(widthMeasureSpec, heightMeasureSpec);
    int width = MeasureSpec.getSize(widthMeasureSpec);
    int height = MeasureSpec.getSize(heightMeasureSpec);

    if (0 == mRatioWidth || 0 == mRatioHeight) {
        setMeasuredDimension(width, height);
    } else {
        if (width < height * mRatioWidth / mRatioHeight) {
            setMeasuredDimension(width, width * mRatioHeight / mRatioWidth);
        } else {
            setMeasuredDimension(height * mRatioWidth / mRatioHeight, height);
        }
    }
}

}

Thank you very much for your help.


Solution

  • this is the solution for your problem. In this line the aspect ratio is set to 3/4. I changed chooseVideSize method to pick video size with hd resolution for MediaRecorder.

        private static Size chooseVideoSize(Size[] choices) {
            for (Size size : choices) {
                // Note that it will pick only HD video size, you should create more robust solution depending on screen size and available video sizes
                if (1920 == size.getWidth() && 1080 == size.getHeight()) {
                    return size;
                }
            }
            Log.e(TAG, "Couldn't find any suitable video size");
            return choices[choices.length - 1];
        }
    

    Then I corrected this method to pick preview size accordingly to video size aspect ratio and below is result.

    private static Size chooseOptimalSize(Size[] choices, int width, int height, Size aspectRatio) {
        // Collect the supported resolutions that are at least as big as the preview Surface
        List<Size> bigEnough = new ArrayList<Size>();
        int w = aspectRatio.getWidth();
        int h = aspectRatio.getHeight();
        double ratio = (double) h / w;
        for (Size option : choices) {
            double optionRatio = (double) option.getHeight() / option.getWidth();
            if (ratio == optionRatio) {
                bigEnough.add(option);
            }
        }
    
        // Pick the smallest of those, assuming we found any
        if (bigEnough.size() > 0) {
            return Collections.min(bigEnough, new CompareSizesByArea());
        } else {
            Log.e(TAG, "Couldn't find any suitable preview size");
            return choices[1];
        }
    }
    

    I hope it will help you!
