RC03 gives "error retrieving camcorder profile params" at creating CameraController

[Peter Varga]

Hi,

I use CameraController that worked well in RC02.

But if I upgrade to RC03 I get "androidx.camera.core.initializationexception: java.lang.runtimeexception: error retrieving camcorder profile params" when I create the CameraController. Simply when I attach the listener I get this exception:

cameraController = new LifecycleCameraController(context);
Futures.addCallback(cameraController.getInitializationFuture(), new FutureCallback<Void>() {
@Override
public void onFailure(Throwable t) {
 is called instead of onSuccess.

I run the app on a Samsung Note10 Plus. It worked well with rc02 and fails with rc03 without any modification.

Could you advise?

Thanks in advance,

Peter

Hello Peter,

Thanks for writing in to the developer list. After chatting about this issue with the development team, I've gone ahead and created an issue at http://issuetracker.google.com/181599852.

We could use your help in providing some additional information:

• Code samples
• Are you using the Video function at all?
• expanded error log
• Other artifacts you're also using

Thanks!

I had the same problem with rc03. I didn't use the video function only take photo. This issue happened most on Android 11.

The code where I get this error is:

cameraController = new LifecycleCameraController(context);
Futures.addCallback(cameraController.getInitializationFuture(), new FutureCallback<Void>() {

@Override

public void onSuccess(@Nullable Void result) {
Log.d(TAG, "createCameraController SUCCESS");
onCameraInited.accept(easyCamera);

}

@Override
public void onFailure(Throwable t) {

onFailure.accept(new EasyCameraException("Exception while creating CameraController", t));
}

}, CameraXExecutors.mainThreadExecutor());

There is nothing before this, I mean no camera related code. 

Setting the parameters, the use cases, lifecycle binding and everything else are AFTER this code so it does not matter what configuration I plan to use. (Otherwise, YES, I use the video, but I think it has nothing to do with this error. Creating the CameraController is the first step using the camera.)

The exact same code works perfectly with rc02.

The phone is a Samsung Note 10 plus, Android 11.

My gradle files looks like:

def camerax_version = '1.0.0-rc03'
implementation "androidx.camera:camera-core:${camerax_version}"
implementation "androidx.camera:camera-camera2:${camerax_version}"
implementation "androidx.camera:camera-lifecycle:${camerax_version}"
implementation "androidx.camera:camera-extensions:1.0.0-alpha22"
implementation 'androidx.camera:camera-view:1.0.0-alpha22'

Cheers,

Peter

Hi Varga,

Thanks for providing the information. It should be the issue that 1.1.0-alpha02 was unexpectedly loaded. I found an approach to force use a specific version of library to workaround the problem. Before the issue is fixed, could you have a try to modify the gradle settings for camera-core, camera-camera2 and camera-lifecycle as the following to see whether the issue still happens? Thanks.

// CameraX core library
def camerax_version = '1.0.0-rc03'
implementation("androidx.camera:camera-core") {
    version {
        strictly "$camerax_version"
    }
    because "Force use 1.0.0-rc03"

}

// CameraX Camera2 extensions
implementation("androidx.camera:camera-camera2") {
    version {
        strictly "$camerax_version"

    }
    because "Force use 1.0.0-rc03"

}

// CameraX Lifecycle library
implementation("androidx.camera:camera-lifecycle") {
    version {
        strictly "$camerax_version"

    }
    because "Force use 1.0.0-rc03"
}

Hi,

this way it works well!

Thanks for the advice,

Peter
