Small Viewfinder API 24 and below (Only affects 9:16 aspect)

[Sk8aaron]

JCA version:
1.0.0

Device:
physical LG-M153 API 23,
emulator original Pixel API 24,
emulator Pixel 7 Pro API 24,

Steps to reproduce:
run app on device with API 24 or below and make sure 9:16 aspect ratio is selected.

Expected:
viewfinder fits screen and has black bars where necessary

Observed:
viewfinder size is very small and has over-sized black bars on bottom and right side

Remarks
tested on API 21-35 with different resolutions this seems to only affect API 24 and below with 9:16 aspect.

@Sk8aaron We currently have an issue with rendering SurfaceView backed Viewfinder in API <= 24. Until the issue is fixed there. I've changed it so this app will use the EMBEDDED implementation mode (TextureView backed)

I have found a workaround to fix this:

Use this version
cameraViewfinderCompose = "1.0.0-SNAPSHOT"

From this repository

maven {
                setUrl("https://androidx.dev/snapshots/builds/11723120/artifacts/repository")
            }
