God damn the android camera 2 API is a giant pain in the ass. First I got it all working on my emulator, then I thought "hey let's set how it looks on my fancy phone!.... Oh... Ok."..

So at much fiddling I managed to merge the Google sample with my requirements and got it working on my phone. Then I'm sitting in the train, fire up the emulator and to my surprise IT STOPPED WORKING ON THE EMULATOR AAARRHH!

anyway, it's working on my device which will suffice for now.

Now I'm trying to chop the video into images and... Wait... Google... What do you mean your don't support the Java media framework?!?

😭😭😢😭😩😩😖😡😡😠😠😠😠
