Using QPainter for displaying live camera output

sulabh

I am just curious if we can use QPainter to display the live camera output. If so can anyone tell me how will be the implementation.
I already used it with QLabel like this :

cM2 = new QCamera(this);
cV2 = new QCameraViewfinder(this);
cM2->setViewfinder(cV2);
cBox2 = new QVBoxLayout();
cBox2->addWidget(cV2);
ui->label_2->setLayout(cBox2);
cM2->start();

@SGaist I just to rotate the live feed from camera. Also i still didnt get how can i do it using my mentioned code.

Using the code you posted ? You can't.

You'll likely need to implement your own QAbstractVideoSurface.
