🐛 Orientation have different values on front and back camera about react-native-vision-camera HOT 5 CLOSED

+1 here.
I am using a frame processor and it impacts the text recognition (works as expected when phone in landscape but does not pick anything up when device held in portrait)

Also opened an issue here: #3051

from react-native-vision-camera.

I think this is intended.

frame.orientation tells you the orientation of the physical pixels to appear upright, targeting the current output orientation.

So if output orientation is portrait (aka you want portrait photos), frame.orientation tells you what orientation it's pixel buffer is relative to the output orientation (example; portrait).

@luicfrr please see this PR #3077 and read the description.

This explains how this works, and why orientation is not the same value.

Guten Tag, Hans here.

@mrousavy I think this issue should be reopened because values are not consitent.

As I said before, IOS always return .left with device is held in portrait mode in both cameras but android return LANDSCAPE_LEFT on front camera and LANDSCAPE_RIGHT in back.

One is wrong:

• or Android should return LANDSCAPE_LEFT value in both cameras like IOS
• or IOS should return .left in front camera and .right on back camera.

This inconsitence is the real issue.
