Option to enable torch during RTSP streaming sessions #32

Open Aerolivier opened 6 years ago

Aerolivier commented 6 years ago

Hello,

Is there any way to enable the torch (light) for a camera whilst streaming the video?

Once the streaming begins, the torch is turned off (and can't be enabled through the menu).

Even more ideally, it'd be nice to be able to specify this option remotely e.g. through the RTSP URL (if such a thing is possible).

Many thanks for this software.

I'd implement this myself if only I knew how! Sadly, Android isn't my area of expertise.

Hey, @Aerolivier

Unfortunatelly, there is not way to enable light-emitting diode in Endoscope. I dont' remember where problem was but I wanted try to implement this in way as you describe (RTSP parameter url). Actually I'm developing new solution, similar to Endoscope but on WebRTC. I will try to implement controlling light diode in proper way. Stay tuned.

Cheers.

EDIT There are some clues how to implement this: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6068803/how-to-turn-on-front-flash-light-programmatically-in-android
