977295 - [B2G][Camera] Rapidly tapping record/stop for video with APZ enabled is unpredictable

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia, defect)

Description

[Justin D'Arcangelo [:justindarc]]

This was discovered while investigating Bug 975481 which was resolved by the patch for Bug 975453. However, an issue with APZ enabled still remains.

If you enter video mode and rapidly tap the record/stop button when APZ is enabled, you can subsequently tap *anywhere* on the screen and a 'click' event will continue to be triggered on the record/stop button.

Here is a video demonstration:

You will first see with APZ enabled that after the rapid clicking on the 'capture' button, I can tap anywhere on-screen and it still triggers the 'click' event on the 'capture' button. Then, I turn off APZ, restart the Camera app and it works as expected.

Does this affect 1.3 or 1.4? Or both?

Comment 2

[Justin D'Arcangelo [:justindarc]]

I was testing in 1.4. I'll try and reproduce in 1.3.

QA Wanted to check the behavior on 1.3.

We spoke on IRC and this seems like an APZC bug where the event queue is busted. Looking at the video I'm not confident it should block the release but it worth beeing fixed. I'm worried that there is some easier way to trigger it.

Do you have more details on this?

Unable to reproduce on 1.3 or 1.4 Buri with APZ enabled. 
Could device type be a factor?

My understanding of APZ is very limited, but there does seem to be some issue with the graphics hardware on Helix (see bug 965402).. so maybe this is specific to this device?

That video shows off loads of problems showcasing bug 965402 actually.

I'm not even sure we can trust Helix on 1.4 to be honest - the hardware is extremely out of date with 1.4.
