1000583 - [FlatFish][Camera][gUM] rear-facing displays upside down when turning device right or left

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia::Camera, defect)

Description

[Richard Pappalardo [:rpapa][:rpappalardo]]

Front-facing and rear facing camera preview are OK.  However, rotating rear-facing camera right or left turns image upside down.  This doesn't happen with forward-facing camera preview

I can confirm similar rotated picture issue on Flatfish.

OS version: 2.1.0.0-prerelease
Platform version: 33.01a
Build Identifier: 20140626015928
Git commit info: 2014-6-25 15:36:44, bd588a2
----------------------------------------------
Steps to reproduce:
1) Open browser on Flatfish
2) Enter https://apper.in/testek in URL bar
3) Select Back Camera or Front Camera and click "Share".

Actual results:
1) When using "Back Camera" in landscape mode picture is rotated right for 90 degrees. (Screenshot 1)
2) When using "Back Camera" in portrait mode picture is flipped vertically. (Screenshot 2)
3) When using "Front Camera" in landscape mode picture is rotated left for 90 degress. (Screenshot 3)


Expected results:
Picture should be rotated correctly.

On 2.2.0.0-prerelease, build id 20140917012101, the issue is still there.
But now the local video does not display at all. Instead you get a green rectangle, with front or rear camera.
Both cameras work properly in the "Camera" built-in app

jesup, I'm not sure what the status is of Flatfish these days, but is there anything obvious that could be checked here? The Camera app is rotated properly, but the gUM feed is sideways. This bug was filed well after bug 970183 landed.

ALmost certainly the camera sensor orientation (or whether it's a front or back camera) is wrong, messing up the data that feeds into RotateImage() in MediaEngineWebRTCVideo.cpp  Getting front/back wrong would do it, for example.
