camera_android_camerax 0.6.9

Android implementation of the camera plugin using the CameraX library.

0.6.9

0.6.6

• Adds logic to support building a camera preview with Android Surfaces not backed by a SurfaceTexture to which CameraX cannot not automatically apply the transformation required to achieve the correct rotation.

• Updates minimum supported SDK version to Flutter 3.16/Dart 3.2.

0.6.5+1

• Updates README.md to reflect the fact that the camera_android_camerax camera plugin implementation is the endorsed Android implementation for camera: ^0.11.0.

0.6.5

• Modifies stopVideoRecording to ensure that the method only returns when CameraX reports that the recorded video finishes saving to a file.
• Modifies startVideoCapturing to ensure that the method only returns when CameraX reports that video recording has started.
• Adds empty implementation for setDescriptionWhileRecording and leaves a todo to add this feature.

0.6.4+1

0.6.4

• Prevents usage of unsupported concurrent UseCases based on the capabiliites of the camera device.

0.6.3

• Shortens default interval that internal Java InstanceManager uses to release garbage collected weak references to native objects.
• Dynamically shortens interval that internal Java InstanceManager uses to release garbage collected weak references to native objects when an ImageAnalysis.Analyzer is set/removed to account for increased memory usage of analyzing images that may cause a crash.

0.6.2

• Adds support to control video FPS and bitrate. See CameraController.withSettings.

0.6.1+1

• Moves integration_test dependency to dev_dependencies.

• Implements setFocusPoint, setExposurePoint, and setExposureOffset.

0.5.0+33

• Fixes typo in README.md.

0.5.0+30

• Adds documentation to clarify how the plugin uses resolution presets as target resolutions for CameraX.

0.5.0+29
