[Touch-packages] [Bug 1451724] Re: Selfie stick not supported

[Alan Pope ]

For what it's worth I have a selfie device which I picked up at SCaLE.
It's not a stick but just a bluetooth button on a keyring.

Kinda like this thing:- http://shopping.rediff.com/product/bluetooth-
remote-shutter-portable-selfie-clicker-for-iphone-ipad-android-
sa/12547946

You'll note it has two buttons.

Using xev on my desktop I discovered that the "iOS" button presses Vol+.
The "Android" button presses Enter.

Android button press:-

I tried #TheSelfie on my arale, it increases the volume.  I didn't look
to see what keycode is being generated, but what ever it is raises
notify-osd showing the volume increase.

Re: [Touch-packages] [Bug 1451724] Re: Selfie stick not supported

[Ugo Riboni]

We can try to handle the media keycodes, I will update the patch in that
sense. Thanks for the research Michael.

However the volume keys are going to be more complicated: the app receieves
them just fine, but they are the same keys that are generated by the
hardware volume buttons on the phone (Qt.Key_VolumeDown, Qt.Key_VolumeUp).

The system intercepts them regardless of what the app does with them (I
tried to mark them as handled in Qt), and raises/lowers the volume.
I think it will be very confusing to shoot a picture AND raise/lower the
volume.

I guess we will have to live with the fact that some selfie sticks +
hardware combinations which generate volume keypresses won't be supported,
though that's going to be rather confusing for the user too.

[Ugo Riboni]

The patch has been updated to handle all keys listed my Michael, plus
XKB_KEY_XF86AudioLowerVolume and XKB_KEY_XF86AudioRaiseVolume, which
might be emitted by some sticks as Ken suggests, and are not used by our
system.

More testing welcome.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1451724] Re: Selfie stick not supported

[Michael Zanetti]

Hey Ugo, Bill,

I have tested the linked branch. 2 issues:

* My BQ is running out of space and produces the "Low disk space"
warning when the camera app starts up. That seems to steal focus which
forces me to first swipe to the foto roll and back to the viewfinder in
order to fix the focus things.

* Second, don't ask me why, but that exact same selfie stick I tried
half a year ago, now seems to produce this keycode: 0x1008FF16 which
isn't listed in the Qt namespace. However, it is listed in xkbcommon-
keysyms.h and is mapped to XKB_KEY_XF86AudioPrev. To make things even
weirder, I have to add that this is on krillin. Last time I tested it on
flo. However, I retested it on flo right now and believe it or not, it's
XKB_KEY_XF86AudioMedia (0x1008FF32) now. I've also tested that same
stick on an iPhone, it will  increase the sound volume when the camera
app was not focused. So this means that the generated keycode depends on
the hardware drivers, in our case the Android HAL. Different devices and
versions of the Android image can change the produced keycode.

This makes me believe that we should just handle all common multimedia
keys in the camera app to trigger the shutter. If we add those keys, I
guess we should support most of the cases:

0x1008FF14 (XKB_KEY_XF86AudioPlay)
0x1008FF15 (XKB_KEY_XF86AudioStop)
0x1008FF16 (XKB_KEY_XF86AudioPrev)
0x1008FF17 (XKB_KEY_XF86AudioNext) 
0x1008FF31 (XKB_KEY_XF86AudioPause)
0x1008FF32 (XKB_KEY_XF86AudioMedia)

Qt::Key_MediaPlay   0x0180  
Qt::Key_MediaStop   0x0181
Qt::Key_MediaPrevious   0x0182   
Qt::Key_MediaNext   0x0183   
Qt::Key_MediaRecord 0x0184   
Qt::Key_MediaPause  0x185
Qt::Key_MediaTogglePlayPause0x186
