I appreciate your help.
I wanted to try a few things before I got back to you and I've
definitely made some progress.
My application is a client which streams audio and send jpeg pictures
to a remote server. I want to use thecamerato take periodic shots
and I want to capture and stream audio from the Mic.
I have a Google G1 phone from T-Mobile, not an unlocked development
special. The UI framework is built and I am now ready to build the
guts (FYI a Windows version of what I am attempting to run on Android
is already running). There are three difficulties I am having that are
holding me up.
The first is my desire to display my subclass of SurfaceView (I was
already doing this) within a layout. You say: I made the CameraView a
child of the activity view and set its properties in the XML layout.
I am sorry to say that I am still confused :-). Could you send me a
code snippet and and xml example? Then I think it would be very clear.
My second problem is that I cannot get the MediaRecorder to function
either in the phone or on the emulator (I do not know if the mic is
emulated). Here is my code:
try {
mRecorder = new MediaRecorder();
mRecorder.setAudioSource(MediaRecorder.AudioSource.MIC);
mRecorder.setOutputFormat
(MediaRecorder.OutputFormat.THREE_GPP);
mRecorder.setAudioEncoder
(MediaRecorder.AudioEncoder.AMR_NB);
mRecorder.setOutputFile(vternal.3gp);
mRecorder.prepare();
mRecorder.start(); // Recording is now started
}
at the line: mRecorder.start(), it crashes. I got this code from the
android website. I thought it might be a permissions thing, but I have
all the permissions set that could possibly be related. Here is my
AndroidManifest.xml lines:
uses-permission android:name=android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO/uses-
permission
uses-permission android:name=android.permission.CAMERA/uses-
permission
uses-permission android:name=android.permission.INTERNET/uses-
permission
Can you throw any light on this for me, I just can't see what I could
be doing wrong.
Lastly, I have been having a problem with the ImageView widget. I want
to display an perfectly valid jpeg file in a layout. I use setImageUri
() to do this on a pointer to the ImageView.
The Uri is contructed from a local file name, as follows:
ImageView image =
(ImageView)mVTB.findViewById(R.id.image);
mJpegFile = new File( /sdcard/dcim/Camera/latest.jpg );
Uri u = Uri.fromFile( mJpegFile );
Then I execute:
image.setImageURI(u);
and nothing is displayed. If I put the very same jpeg into a resource,
everything works. The value of u.toString is
'file:///sdcard/dcim/Camera/latest.jpg'. Perhaps setImage does not handle
file resources?
How then can I display a jpeg? How does theCamerado it?
Any help will be much appreciated.

Generally, I think the typical solutions involve proxying through an HTTP server. Android has built-in support for geo-tagging pictures in the camera app using EXIF tags. You just need to enable it in the settings. There is no video record in 1.0, though we will support it in a future release. However in the first version, there won't be any geo-tagging support. Theoretically, you could read the video file in and add the tags in your application. How you geo-tag the text will depend on what container you use. Can't help you much there.
