Need to capture time-lapse video to memory only (not to flash) while displaying a different image on the display (i.e. no preview) #472

Currently the camera API requires a preview in order to capture frames.  My 
application requires the ability to capture frames while displaying data 
unrelated to the video.

I have managed to hack the system to produce the desired result, but it is 
fugly and I would prefer to have a supported method of doing this.

I am using XE16 with the associated GDK Preview

I tried to attached a sample 3 minute time lapse video that my application 
produces (the mp4) but it is 30MB and the limit is 10MB.  It would provide a 
tremendous amount of clarification about the issue if it could be attached.  I 
have attached a screen shot of what the driver sees while the time-lapse is 
recorded, but this really doesn't provide anywhere near as much information as 
the video would.

A video illustrating what the application is currently able to record in the 
background (and which is pretty close to the final desired end-result) is 
available here:
