Second camera and portrait

Hello,
I tried to use the MS portrait but by default it selects the first camera not the secondary front facing. In options there is only one camera listed, whats the solution to this?
Thank you.

What are you tring to do? There is camera software for winmo phones that is great for using different cams and stuff here it is http://www.ateksoft.com/

If you haven't tried ComVu PocketCaster, I highly recommend it.

I'm trying to use MSN messanger/portrait with the front facing camera?

You got portrait to work on the Kaiser? With me it always throws an error.
What version did you install?

beta, 3.1 but its using the main camera, not the front camera.

HI,
I recently bought HTC tytn II. My main purpose to buy this powerfull device is Voice chat and Video chat...
Please let me know the performance of MS portrait on tytn II... can we do voice chat smoothly?????

My experience of MS Portrait on my Kaiser is not very good.
It only seems to work with other versions of Portrait for voice or video and not with Live Messenger.
IM text chat to PC Live Messenger works just as well as "Mobile" Live Messenger to PC Live Messenger, and I stil get incoming Hotmail notifications.
Video, even over wifi LAN, was poor to non existent in my experience.
The only Camera it will work with is the rear facing camera, I tried setting up the forward facing camera in the camera app and then going into the settings for Portrait but still only the rear facing camera works.
I havent tried a 3g Video Phone call so I have no idea how well the Kaiser copes with the demands of 2 way video and audio processing and data transfer, but as far as portrait goes technically it works as a proof of concept but is far from being usable. Portrait is only beta software so there is hope for future improvements. Cool Camera and Webcam Plus, both from Ateksoft, were mentioned earlier but are not currently compatible with the Kaiser.
I have read somewhere that HTC have not released the full APIs for the cameras. I guess this will hinder 3rd party development.

Fixed! 3G Video Call camera Rotate issue

For so long time, I found there will be front camera Rotated issue in Video Call when I use HTC dialer on 6.5 ROM.
Now, I fixed it by modify registery.
Share with you.
Enjoy!

[Q?] WM 6.5 and HD video recording

Friends:
Is HD video recording (720p) something that would ever be possible with WM 6.5.X, or is there some inherent limitation of WM 6.5.X that prevents this?
I love WM 6.5 but also really want HD recording so I can catch my baby daughter's antics with good recording quality. Might have to jump off to Android if this can never be possible, though I really don't want to.

video & camera on WM phone are crap, dont expect it too much

Can't record in X1

I use Resco audio Recorder but only can record my voice.
Any recording program is working fine in X1?
or I must flash to WM 6.5?

Video Recording Functionality

I am wondering if anyone knows of a way to turn off camera functionality of start/finish video recording by touching the screen.
UPDATE: issue resolved by @[email protected], thank you

I am frustrated by an added camera functionality on the latest WP versions - now in order to start/finish video recording you only need to touch the screen - anywhere on the screen. For those of us who frequently uses video recording this is actually not convenient because it is easy to accidentally stop the recording by touching the screen, especially during longer recordings (>3 minutes), or when passing the phone to another person while recording is underway.
I run into this problem again and again, but I would hate to revert to an earlier WP7 version because of this (I am running a nice Dynamics HD2O 2.00b WP7.8 8858 ROM on my HTC HD2). So I am wondering if anyone can think of a way to remove this functionality (or allow the screen to be completely turned off while recording video, as this could also save battery charge) by tweaking registry, or an app that does that, etc.
Thank you.

That was easy, thank you very much. Strange that you can't do it from within the camera app itself.
