EXIF thumbnail generation is done by Android. There is a set of API to get/set the desired size of the thumbnail and also to retrieve the list of possible thumbnail sizes:
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/hardware/Camera.Parameters.html#getSupportedJpegThumbnailSizes() However there is no guarantee that a thumbnail size with the same aspect ratio as the pictures is going to always be available. That said, the solution would be to add logic in qtubuntu-camera to use the APIs above to select the appropriate thumbnail size. For that to happen these APIs need to be exposed in libhybris first. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to qtubuntu-camera in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1376500 Title: thumbnails in metadata generated incorrectly Status in libhybris: New Status in “qtubuntu-camera” package in Ubuntu: New Status in “thumbnailer” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: build 76 rtm-proposed on krillin Take a picture with camera-app swipe to the right to display it it looks squashed and like it's being displayed at the wrong aspect ration open the gallery-app and view the photo and it looks equally bad share the photo to messaging-app, and the preview of the photo is black copy the photo to your desktop and open there and the photo looks fine these are all new regressions, not sure what layer it's in bug guessing a low layer as gallery, camera and messaging-app have not changed in this regard To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/libhybris/+bug/1376500/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
