Recording a video with front camera in flutter the screen becames darker and narrow

Question

Recording a video with front camera in flutter the screen became darker and narrow i tried a lot but i don't have any to resolve it

The video recording is with full screen and the face became very narrow and very darken. I have tried with giving the resolution was also high But the back camera is working fine

I am using camera plugin i.e.,: camera: ^0.5.2+1

But the back camera is working fine

I've tried your sample in Nexus 6 emulator, and here is the output:

It seems that the front and rear camera was being stretch. I've found this issue in GitHub and you've encountered the same issue. There are other samples that you can try. Also, I've seen that the team behind the Camera Plugin is working for a refactor on the said plugin.

I've played with your code and implemented the solution I've found here. Which could be some remedy atm, but there could be better solutions.

From the part:

   Widget _cameraPreviewWidget() {
    if (controller == null || !controller.value.isInitialized) {
      return const Text(
        'Tap a camera',
        style: TextStyle(
          color: Colors.white,
          fontSize: 24.0,
          fontWeight: FontWeight.w900,
        ),
      );
    } else {
      return AspectRatio(
        aspectRatio: controller.value.aspectRatio,
        child: CameraPreview(controller),
      );
    }
  }

I've applied this fix from the referenced SO post:

Widget cameraWidget(context) {
    var camera = _cameraController.value;
    // fetch screen size
    final size = MediaQuery.of(context).size;
       
    // calculate scale depending on screen and camera ratios
    // this is actually size.aspectRatio / (1 / camera.aspectRatio)
    // because camera preview size is received as landscape
    // but we're calculating for portrait orientation
    var scale = size.aspectRatio * camera.aspectRatio;

    // to prevent scaling down, invert the value
    if (scale < 1) scale = 1 / scale;

    return Transform.scale(
      scale: scale,
      child: Center(
        child: CameraPreview(_cameraController),
      ),
  );
}

Since I'm using the current version of camera 0.8.0, I've considered the given solution for versions higher than 0.7.0.

Here the sample code:

import 'dart:async';
import 'dart:io';

import 'package:camera/camera.dart';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:path_provider/path_provider.dart';
import 'package:video_player/video_player.dart';

  switch (direction) {
    case CameraLensDirection.back:
      return Icons.camera_rear;
    case CameraLensDirection.front:
      return Icons.camera_front;
    case CameraLensDirection.external:
      return Icons.camera;
  }
  throw ArgumentError('Unknown lens direction');
}

    print('Error: $code\nError Message: $message');

And the actual output:

Comparing the camera preview from the before and after I've made some adjustment in your code, it seems that it could be applicable to your current scenario. You'll just need to make some adjustments considering the calculations of camera aspectRatio.

You can also update your post and add some sample output from your end so we can check if this solution fits.

Aside from the solution above, there are more flexible solution since many devices can vary on resolution and size. Especially if you are attempting to build for Android and iOS.

1. Choosing the aspect ratio that you want to use.
2. Finding the resolution that is closest to this ratio.
3. Displaying the preview in an Expanded widget that is wrapped in a Column widget.

However, this is probably more difficult if the camera plugin only provides the CameraPreview widget. You could get around this by creating your own Texture widget by extracting the cameraId from the Controller.buildPreview() method.

It could be something similar to the code below. However, I noticed the camera plugin still has the limitation of only providing 4/5 resolutions. So, the closest resolution to the desiredRatio could end up being pretty low quality.

class CameraApp extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp(
      home: MyCameraHome(),
    );
  }
}

class MyCameraHome extends StatefulWidget {
  @override
  State<StatefulWidget> createState() {
    return MyCameraHomeState();
  }
}

class MyCameraHomeState extends State<MyCameraHome> {
  static final double _desiredAspectRatio = 1.78;

  late final CameraController _controller;
  Widget _previewWidget = Container();

  @override
  void initState() {
    super.initState();
    print(_closestResolutionPreset());
    _controller = CameraController(cameras[0], _closestResolutionPreset());
    _controller.initialize().then((_) {
      if (!mounted) {
        return;
      }
      _buildPreviewWidget();
    });
  }

  ResolutionPreset _closestResolutionPreset() {
    final Map<ResolutionPreset, double> ratios = <ResolutionPreset, double>{
      ResolutionPreset.low: defaultTargetPlatform == TargetPlatform.android
          ? 320 / 240
          : 352 / 288,
      ResolutionPreset.medium: defaultTargetPlatform == TargetPlatform.android
          ? 720 / 480
          : 640 / 480,
      ResolutionPreset.high: 1280 / 720,
      ResolutionPreset.veryHigh: 1920 / 1080,
    };

    double smallestDifference = 1000;
    late ResolutionPreset resultPreset;

    for (MapEntry<ResolutionPreset, double> ratio in ratios.entries) {
      final double newDifference = (ratio.value - _desiredAspectRatio).abs();
      if (newDifference < smallestDifference) {
        resultPreset = ratio.key;
        smallestDifference = newDifference;
      }
    }

    return resultPreset;
  }
