    Open Camera (v1.56.2) using API2 will take Photos but in Video mode it says "Serious Camera Error". The inbuilt camera app is not running. It works OK with API1. I don't think I need amy of the features available in API2, so maybe this is just a bug report.
    Any ideas? Thanks.

    Well, I'll write about this version too 1.56.2. Something's wrong, because when I have Camera2 API set up and select “camera preview” and then select “Preview size - maximum for screen size,” what I see on the screen is a grid of tiny squares at the lowest resolution—scaled up to the screen size—and I see this on 3 different smartphones. But on 2 others, there’s no such issue.

    You can see this in Photo mode, but in Video mode it suddenly works fine

    The latest twist in this saga - using API1 it now says "Failed to record video" whatever that means. I can't believe I'm the only person trying to use Open Camera on a Samsung A17.
