Re: Camera app slow, locks up?

What I see is that for the first several seconds after starting, the camera app's update rate is fairly fast (though not as fast as the video call app - about one-half as fast). After a few seconds, then the video update rates slows down to about an update a second. Then after a few more seconds it stops, and the unit is pretty much locked up. Sometimes I can close the camera app, sometimes I have to reboot the unit (by holding down on the power key for several seconds). Yeah, it's unusable here. The OS quite often offers to close the Camera application as it has stopped responding. The application consumes massive amounts of CPU and the low frame rate (~5fps, sometimes less than 1fps) makes framing a shot next to impossible. Definately needs more work as it's not currently usable - but even if it were, the camera image quality when indoors is frankly awful (this applies to internet web video too). ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
RE: Camera app slow, locks up?
Agree here. I had higher hopes for it, especially singe its existence made me forget about making own camera application months ago. On the possitive side there is another camera application project on garage and no-one stops us from making a a far better application with open source ;) Br, --jakub >Subject: Re: Camera app slow, locks up? > >It's brutal ... seems like this was an exercise to "check the box" >since there's a camera in there > >On 3/28/07, David Hagood <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> Does anybody else find that the Camera application is slow, and >> occasionally locks up the unit? >> >> What I see is that for the first several seconds after starting, the >> camera app's update rate is fairly fast (though not as fast as the >> video call app - about one-half as fast).

It's brutal ... seems like this was an exercise to "check the box" since there's a camera in there On 3/28/07, David Hagood <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Does anybody else find that the Camera application is slow, and occasionally locks up the unit?

Camera app slow, locks up?
Does anybody else find that the Camera application is slow, and occasionally locks up the unit? What I see is that for the first several seconds after starting, the camera app's update rate is fairly fast (though not as fast as the video call app - about one-half as fast).
