SL Director’s Viewfinder 1.2 update

I’ve updated the viewfinder app to version 1.2

In this version I’ve hopefully addressed some issues tablet users were facing.  I’m not sure if it solves an issue with the HTC Desire.  I don’t have access to one to check.  If you own the Desire and are willing to test this for me, please let me know.

By request I’ve added 2 perf Techniscope format to the available list of formats.  Also it was requested that I filter the aspect ratios available based on the chosen format.  This took a bit of work, but not I have a way to customize exactly the proper aspect ratios to each format.  If there is an aspect that you need, please let me know.

I’m still experimenting with improvements to the previewing code.  I’m currently testing on my own T-Mobile G2 phone, which is giving me 10-12 frames per second.  Unfortunately the Motorola Droid has a slower processor and can only handle 3-4 frames per second.  Its not great, but still usable.  Hopefully I’ll be able to increase the frame rate with more research.

This app is a constant work in progress.  Hopefully the more feedback I get from users, the better this app can be.

      Hi Fred, I’m planning on adding that feature in the next major release. I’ve just have some memory issues I have to address.
