Hi I want to down-sample a 8mp image to 5mp bitmap. The image is either captured from camera or loaded from sdcard. When I try to use createScaledBitmap() on galaxy s3 or older devices, the memory overflows. I considered downsampling while decoding the bitmap using BitmapFactory.Options "inSampleSize", but found that inSamplesize is an integer value and inSamplesize <= 8mp/5mp is 1, which means there is not enough room for downsampling while decoding. What are the other ways in which I can downsample image to 5mp and avoid memory overflow? Is there a method for inplace downsampling OR is it possible to write a custom decoder to this task?
