Shazron Abdullah commented on CB-248:
-------------------------------------
I have changed the type of this issue to "New Feature" since this is an
extension to the W3C Media Capture API (and possibly requires it to be a
separate API), and we are trying to conform to the W3C API.
The W3C Media Capture API defines a "lifetime" for a media capture:
http://www.w3.org/TR/media-capture-api/#lifetime
"User agents should discard the captured files only after the top-level
browsing context [HTML5] related to the script is destroyed. In a special cases
where the UA detects limited storage space, files may be deleted earlier."
Although we really should remove for captureImage() saving to the photo album
so we can be consistent cross-platform - we probably will not be removing a
feature that is already out there. We'll try to figure out a suitable
alternative or migration.
> captureVideo() on iOS doesnt seem to save to the device's photoalbum like
> captureImage() does

> Key: CB-248
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-248
> Project: Apache Callback
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: iOS
> Affects Versions: 1.4.0
> Environment: tested on iOS only
> Reporter: Filipe Cruz
> Assignee: Becky Gibson
> Labels: capture, documentation, video
>
> calling navigator.device.capture.captureImage() the local path to a temporary
> location is retrieved and the image is saved to the device's photoalbum.
> calling navigator.device.capture.captureVideo() only the local path to a
> temporary location is retrieved, the video is not saved to the device's
> photoalbum.
> I also tested camera.getPicture() but the capturing functionality of that
> funciton only works for images. So there is no working solution to capture
> video to device photoalbum using callback-phonegap.
> Also, documentation of
> http://docs.phonegap.com/en/1.4.1/phonegap_camera_camera.md.html#cameraOptions_options
> is wrong. 'MediaType' should be 'mediaType'
> Test case below
