[Q] Remote control app for Galaxy Camera?

I have the Samsung Galaxy Camera and a Samsung Galaxy Note as well as a Nexus 7 tablet.
Is there an app I can use on both the Note and Nexus 7 that will let me take pictures with the Camera via remote control?
It would be nice to be able to view what the camera lens see on the Note or N7's screen and be able to click a button to snap a picture.

I haven't tried it personally, but shouldn't apps like https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.im.RemoDroid work?
Basic idea being that remotely viewing and controlling the screen should do what you desire?

Any news?
I'd like to use a remote app, but nothing in the playstore satisfied me.

I think we have to wait, there are two apps which should work in the near future.
1. Samsung Remoteviefinder
2. Samsung Smart Camera App
For the time being i'm using teamviewer remote, it works best. None of the vnc tools works flawlessly.

Video rotation on chromecast

Good morning!
Does anyone have a solution for some home videos that cast sideways on chromecast from a phone or tablet? I have looked for a way to correct this but have been unsuccessful. When i use Avia or RealPlayer cloud the result is the same....they play fine on the device but are sideways when I cast to the TV...

I know this doesn't help your immediate situation, but going forward...

LOL
there are only two solutions to this...
1 - Rotate the TV....
2 - Load it into Premiere or FinalCut and try and rotate the Video by 90 degrees
There may be a third option if you can find a Video Converter that supports Rotating video...

Looks like MediaCoder can do it via the Rotate option in the Picture tab.
If you're stuck with a favorite editor and it accepts Avisynth scripts, you can rotate it via Avisynth too.
The absolute worst thing you can do is change the camera orientation midway through. If you start one way, finish it that way. Otherwise you'll limit your ultimate viewing window to a square (1080x1080, 720x720, etc). My wife did that once and I screamed "Noooooooooooo!" in slow motion like in the movies.

Cast live video

Has anyone found an app that can cast live from the camera app? Either front or rear facing but preferably with an option to switch back and forth.

Ezcast can do it, but it's a bit slow. You can also mirror web pages with it.

Samsung Galaxy Note 4 - 4k Video Quality

This is for anyone looking to get the Note 4 and wanted a sample of the Video quality. The video is done though the Note 4, and nothing was modified or changed in anyway.
You can also get a few photo samples here: Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Camera Samples So far the phones camera is awesome in my option.
Mod Edit: closed as a duplicate.

Bump for newcomers.

my youtube app only shows 720p max, really annoying, I tried the desktop method in chrome but it didn't appear to load, I kept getting loading error message when it played, when the video attempted to play it just froze my browser (chrome)
Found a better method if I want to see 4k video on my note 4 however more long winded, I downloaded tubemate app from amazon app store, this allowed me to download full 4k quality test videos and play them

You can upgrade your YouTube app and view 1440p. Search around for it.

Just if you are rooted though right?

I believe so, You will need to remove the old app to do so which require root.

This is really ticking me off. What's the use of a kickass screen if you can't feed it properly with content?
Fullhd doesn't work on the nexus 7 either

Check this 1080p 60 FPS video! This is waaaay better than 4k at 30 fps if you're not using a tripod. You get MUCH less blur when moving the phone.

How to take 360 photos?

Is it possible with default camera app?
Thanks!!

+1 on this, have been searching everywhere and nothing.

+2 Been searching for that too

+3, interested if there is an official way. Photosphere on Gcam mod works, that's 360

They got rid of the Surround Shot feature so it wouldn't compete with the Gear 360
I have the APK but I couldn't get it to launch
