Description

I have noticed the video capture option behaving differently in version 2.2.0. Captured video is no longer compressed as it used to be in v2.1.0 - which is a good thing as we can now have high quality video, but transferring an uncompressed video takes forever. Selecting the captured video from the Camera Roll still compresses it before uploading. Is there an undocumented compression function that has been added to the capture API in v2.2.0.

Additionally, I used application.idleTimerDisabled = YES in my didFinishLaunchingWithOptions routine in AppDelegate.m to keep the application from sleeping, but now using the camera resets that when capture is finished, and my app now goes to sleep and times out during file transfer.
