I changed the zxing code a little bit so in CaptureActivity.java, Bitmap barcode can be returned to my main app through an intent (I encode the bitmap using base64 and pass a string for the intent). Anyways, the problem is that barcode has a very low resolution and I’m trying to figure out if it’s possible to return the preview picture (barcode) with a higher resolution (or have the width and height be greater then the preview frame).
Thanks
Sure you can do this if the device supports a preview resolution later than the screen. The app will already do this as of tthe latest version and use a little more resolution this way. Note that the LG Optimus has a notorious bug that will prevent it from working if you do this.
You don’t want tto make the reticle larger or it will induce the user to hold the barcode too close to focus.
