Remote control support #5

This is a great tool! One feature I'd find really useful is to start and stop the capture remotely (Bluetooth remote), i.e. if the phone is on a monopod/ higher vantage point. Maybe an easy solution would be, that triggering could be started with the volume button of the phone? I guess that's what a Bluetooth remote defaults to, and this is also how other camera apps work? It would also be important to have some (accoustic?) feedback when/if the triggering starts and stops (as one can't see the progress on the screen in this remote case).

Heya,

Great suggestions, the volume button camera trigger is actually at the top of my feature todo list (I implemented it once but then broke it).

Audio cue is also a good idea, but I think that will have to wait until I figure out how to make a better settings menu UI (so that people can turn stuff like that off/on)
