[jira] [Created] (CB-1962) Video Capture not compressing video
after capture; Camera use cancels idleTimerDisabled.
Paul R. created CB-1962:
---------------------------
Summary: Video Capture not compressing video after capture; Camera use cancels idleTimerDisabled.
Key: CB-1962
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-1962
Project: Apache Cordova
Issue Type: Bug
Components: iOS
Affects Versions: 2.2.0
Reporter: Paul R.
Assignee: Shazron Abdullah
Priority: Blocker
Fix For: 2.1.0
I have noticed the video capture option behaving differently in version 2.2.0. Captured video is no longer compressed as it used to be in v2.1.0 - which is a good thing as we can now have high quality video, but transferring an uncompressed video takes forever. Selecting the captured video from the Camera Roll still compresses it before uploading. Is there an undocumented compression function that has been added to the capture API in v2.2.0.
Additionally, I used application.idleTimerDisabled = YES in my didFinishLaunchingWithOptions routine in AppDelegate.m to keep the application from sleeping, but now using the camera resets that when capture is finished, and my app now goes to sleep and times out during file transfer.

--------------------------------------
They are two different plugins for the Capture and Camera APIs. Capture as you have seen uses high quality while Camera uses the default (medium).

Shazron Abdullah commented on CB-1962:
--------------------------------------
Setting an iOS specific Project Setting will not work -- plugins should not have this as a dependency. We will have to work with the API and have "thresholds" for width and height that encapsulate the different quality settings. Not sure yet if that is the right approach, or will be downright confusing.
In any case, Capture is slated for API audit and is deprecated for the new getUserMedia stuff: http://www.w3.org/TR/media-capture-api/ (but that's probably months from now) so I don't know if this is worth the effort.
The best course of action will be to revert https://github.com/apache/cordova-ios/commit/1c9ce2a038d234b47957287c4aac7217ec7ed243#CordovaLib/Classes/CDVCapture.m

-----------------------------
Thanks for the info Shazron. Sorry for mixing in two separate issues together.
Can you tell me why the camera roll (selecting videos via navigator.camera.PictureSourceType.PHOTOLIBRARY) compresses videos, while capture doesn't? Is it possible to incorporate that functionality into capture?

--------------------------------------
This commit broke this: https://github.com/apache/cordova-ios/commit/1c9ce2a038d234b47957287c4aac7217ec7ed243#CordovaLib/Classes/CDVCapture.m
The default was UIImagePickerControllerQualityTypeMedium, now it is UIImagePickerControllerQualityTypeHigh
I suppose we could support this in the CaptureVideoOptions.mode (not currently supported) - but you can only set width and height as an option, and it doesn't really map to most iOS video capture modes, so that won't really work: http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/uikit/reference/UIImagePickerController_Class/UIImagePickerController/UIImagePickerController.html#//apple_ref/c/tdef/UIImagePickerControllerQualityType
The only other alternative is to set an iOS specific value in Cordova.plist/config.xml Project Settings: http://docs.phonegap.com/en/2.2.0/guide_project-settings_ios_index.md.html#Project%20Settings%20for%20iOS
As for the idleTimerDisabled stuff, this has nothing to do with the Cordova API I don't think - in any case, that should be filed as a separate issue to be evaluated.
