🐛 Camera FPS throttles on low light, and torch doesn't always work about react-native-vision-camera HOT 8 CLOSED

Wait actually I just double-checked - nevermind, it should actually only throttle the FPS if low-light boost is true, if it is false it should still stick to the FPS... Then this is a bug!

from react-native-vision-camera.

The camera normally runs at 30 FPS according to the graph, but when I cover the camera (with a cloth, my finger, putting it on a table, etc.) the FPS drops to 15

This is intended behaviour on Android, devices automatically throttle their FPS to allow more light to reach the sensor.

Also please leave the issue title as prefered in the template.

Relevant log output

N/A

This is literally the only thing I would've needed to investigate the torch issue. Closing because you left out the required information.

Yes you can reopen once you have logs

Is the throttling intended behavior even when the lowLightBoost prop is set to false? It was my understanding that the throttling would only happen when that was set to true.

Yea it was usually only enabled when lowLightBoost is enabled, but since I migrated from my custom Camera2 implementation to CameraX, this now is no longer configurable. So I guess we just have to accept it, maybe I'll create a feature request in the Google issue tracker but they only have setTargetFps(...), no min or max.

Also, I just wanted to say that this is one of the best react-native libraries IMO and I'm sure everyone appreciates the amount of work you put into maintaining and constantly updating and fixing things!

Thank you so much, much appreciated!

Hope you don't take offense in me closing issues without logs, but otherwise this just gets way too messy :)

Thanks, appreciate the response. I wasn't aware that that was intended Android behavior, thanks for letting me know.

If I'm able to get a log output later on can I reopen this thread or submit a new bug report?

Sorry, one last thing. Is the throttling intended behavior even when the lowLightBoost prop is set to false? It was my understanding that the throttling would only happen when that was set to true.
