### v2.0.0-rc2
- Fix: crashes when stopping video snapshots ([#513][513])
- Fix: dependencies missing, leading to runtime crashes ([#517][517])
https://github.com/natario1/CameraView/compare/v2.0.0-rc1...v2.0.0-rc2
## v2.0.0-rc1
This is likely to be the last release before v2.0.0.
- New: support for watermarks and animated overlays ([docs](../docs/watermarks-and-overlays.html)), thanks to [@RAN3000][RAN3000] ([#502][502], [#421][421])
- New: added `onVideoRecordingStart()` to be notified when video recording starts, thanks to [@agrawalsuneet][agrawalsuneet] ([#498][498])
- New: added `onVideoRecordingEnd()` to be notified when video recording ends ([#506][506])
- New: added `Audio.MONO` and `Audio.STEREO` to control the channel count for videos and video snapshots ([#506][506])
- New: added `cameraUseDeviceOrientation` to choose whether picture and video outputs should consider the device orientation or not ([#497][497])
- Improvement: improved Camera2 stability and various bugs fixed (e.g. [#501][501])
- Improvement: improved video snapshots speed, quality and stability ([#506][506])
https://github.com/natario1/CameraView/compare/v2.0.0-beta06...v2.0.0-rc1
### v2.0.0-beta06
- New: Full featured Camera2 integration! Use `cameraExperimental="true"` and `cameraEngine="camera2"` to test this out. ([#490][490])
- Improvement: we now choose a video recording profile that is compatible with the chosen size. Should fix some video recording issues. ([#477][477])
- Improvement: most internals are now open to be accessed by subclassing. Feel free to open PRs with more protected methods to be overriden. ([#494][494])
- **Breaking change**: some public classes have been moved to different packages. See [table here](../extra/v1-migration-guide.html#repackaging). ([#482][482])
- **Breaking change**: the listener methods `onFocusStart` and `onFocusEnd` are now called `onAutoFocusStart` and `onAutoFocusEnd`. ([#484][484])
- **Breaking change**: the gesture actions `focus` and `focusWithMarker` have been removed and replaced by `autoFocus`, which shows no marker. ([#484][484])
- New: new API called `setAutoFocusMarker()` lets you choose your own marker. ([#484][484])
If you were using `focus`, just switch to `autoFocus`.
If you were using `focusWithMarker`, you can [add back the old marker](../docs/controls.html#cameraautofocusmarker).
https://github.com/natario1/CameraView/compare/v2.0.0-beta05...v2.0.0-beta06
### v2.0.0-beta05
- Fixed `FrameProcessor` freeze and release behavior, was broken ([#431][431])
- New: new api `setAutoFocusResetDelay` to control the delay to reset the focus after autofocus was performed, thanks to [@cneuwirt][cneuwirt] ([#435][435])
- Faster camera preview on layout changes ([#403][403])
- A few bug fixes ([#471][471])
https://github.com/natario1/CameraView/compare/v2.0.0-beta04...v2.0.0-beta05
### v2.0.0-beta04
- Renames setPreviewSize to setPreviewStreamSize (previewSize suggests it is related to the view size but it's not) ([#393][393])
- Added new APIs `setSnapshotMaxWidth` and `setSnapshotMaxHeight` ([#393][393]). You can now have a good looking preview but still take low-res snapshots using these snapshot constraints. Before this, the two sizes were coupled.
https://github.com/natario1/CameraView/compare/v2.0.0-beta03...v2.0.0-beta04
### v2.0.0-beta03
- Fixed a few bugs ([#392][392])
- Important fixes to video snapshot recording ([#374][374])
https://github.com/natario1/CameraView/compare/v2.0.0-beta02...v2.0.0-beta03
### v2.0.0-beta02
- Fixed important bugs ([#356][356])
- Picture snapshots are now flipped when front camera is used ([#360][360])
- Added `PictureResult.getFacing()` and `VideoResult.getFacing()` ([#360][360])
https://github.com/natario1/CameraView/compare/v2.0.0-beta01...v2.0.0-beta02
## v2.0.0-beta01
This is the first beta release. For changes with respect to v1, please take a look at the [migration guide](../extra/v1-migration-guide.html).
### v1.6.1
This is the last release before v2.
- Fixed: crash when using TextureView in API 28, thanks to [@Keyrillanskiy][Keyrillanskiy] ([#297][297])
- Fixed: restore Frame Processor callbacks after taking videos, thanks to [@stefanJi][stefanJi] ([#344][344])
- Enhancement: when horizontal, camera now uses the last available orientation, thanks to [@aartikov][aartikov] ([#290][290])
- Changed: we now swallow exceptions during autoFocus that were happening unpredictably on some devices, thanks to [@mahdi-ninja][mahdi-ninja] ([#332][332])
https://github.com/natario1/CameraView/compare/v1.6.0...v1.6.1
## v1.6.0
- Lifecycle support. Use `setLifecycleOwner` instead of calling start, stop and destroy ([#265][265])
- Enhancement: provide synchronous version of CameraUtils.decodeBitmap thanks to [@athornz][athornz] ([#224][224])
- Enhancement: prevent possible context leak thanks to [@MatFl][MatFl] ([#245][245])
- Bug: fix crash when using default VideoCodec thanks to [@Namazed][Namazed] ([#264][264])
- Enhancement: CameraException.getReason() gives some insight about the error ([#265][265])
- Enhancement: Common crashes are now being posted to the error callback instead of crashing the app ([#265][265])
https://github.com/natario1/CameraView/compare/v1.5.1...v1.6.0
### v1.5.1
- Bug: byte array length for Frames was incorrect thanks to [@ssakhavi][ssakhavi] ([#205][205])
- Bug: gestures were crashing in some conditions ([#222][222])
- Bug: import correctly the ExifInterface library ([#222][222])
- Updated dependencies thanks to [@caleb-allen][caleb-allen] ([#190][190])
https://github.com/natario1/CameraView/compare/v1.5.0...v1.5.1
## v1.5.0
- New: set encoder for video recordings with `cameraVideoCodec` ([#174][174])
- New: set max duration for videos with `cameraVideoMaxDuration` ([#172][172])
- Enhancement: reduced lag with continuous gestures (ev, zoom) ([#170][170])
- Bug: tap to focus was crashing on some devices ([#167][167])
- Bug: capturePicture was breaking if followed by another event soon after ([#173][173])
https://github.com/natario1/CameraView/compare/v1.4.2...v1.5.0
### v1.4.2
- Add prefix to XML resources so they don't collide, thanks to [@RocketRider][RocketRider] ([#162][162])
- Add `videoMaxSize` API and XML attribute, to set max size video in bytes, thanks to [@chaitanyaraghav][chaitanyaraghav] ([#104][104])
- Improved the preview size selection, thanks to [@YeungKC][YeungKC] ([#133][133])
- Improved the playSounds attribute, was playing incorrectly, thanks to [@xp-vit][xp-vit] ([#143][143])
https://github.com/natario1/CameraView/compare/v1.4.1...v1.4.2
### v1.4.1
- Fixed a bug that would flip the front camera preview on some devices ([#112][112])
- Two new `CameraOptions` APIs: `o.getSupportedPictureSizes()` and `o.getSupportedPictureAspectRatios()` ([#101][101])
- Most controls (video quality, hdr, grid, session type, audio, white balance, flash, facing) now inherit
from a base `Control` class ([#105][105]). This let us add new APIs:
- `CameraView.set(Control)`: sets the control to the given value, e.g. `set(Flash.AUTO)`
- `CameraOptions.supports(Control)`: returns true if the control is supported
- `CameraOptions.getSupportedControls(Class<? extends Control>)`: returns list of supported controls of a given kind
https://github.com/natario1/CameraView/compare/v1.4.0...v1.4.1
## v1.4.0
- CameraView is now completely thread-safe. All actions are asynchronous. ([#97][97])
This has some breaking drawbacks. Specifically, the `get` methods (e.g., `getWhiteBalance`) might
not return the correct value while it is being changed. So don't trust them right after you have changed the value.
Instead, always check the `CameraOptions` to see if the value you want is supported.
- Added error handling ([#97][97]) in `CameraListener.onCameraError(CameraException)`.
At the moment, all exceptions there are unrecoverable. When the method is called, the camera is showing
a black preview. This is a good moment to show an error dialog to the user.
You can also try to `start()` again but that is not guaranteed to work.
- Long requested ability to set the picture output size ([#99][99]). Can be done through
`CameraView.setPictureSize()` or through new XML attributes starting with `cameraPictureSize`.
Please refer to docs about it.
- Deprecated `toggleFacing`. It was unreliable and will be removed.
- Deprecated `getCaptureSize`. Use `getPictureSize` instead.
- Fixed bugs.
https://github.com/natario1/CameraView/compare/v1.3.2...v1.4.0

- Improved efficiency for Frame processors, recycle buffers and Frames ([#94][94])
https://github.com/natario1/CameraView/compare/v1.3.1...v1.3.2
### v1.3.1

https://github.com/natario1/CameraView/compare/v1.3.0...v1.3.1
## v1.3.0
- Ability to inject frame processors to do your own visual tasks (barcodes, facial recognition etc.) ([#82][82])
