Increasing Camera Resolution

[ShomaPirogov]

I have some suggestions for improving your services. One of the key features for me is the camera resolution in virtual Android devices. Currently, Genymotion limits the resolution to 480p, but in modern applications and games, as well as other camera-dependent applications, higher resolution may be required.

Therefore, I would like to request the possibility of increasing the camera resolution, at least up to 720p or, even better, to 1080p in your emulator. This capability will allow for more detailed testing and development of applications, especially those heavily reliant on the camera.

For example, I cannot even work with some web applications' scanners that require a higher camera resolution. I have attached a screenshot below ↓

I understand that changing this parameter may affect the emulator's performance and require additional efforts on your part. However, this enhancement will help your users achieve better results with Genymotion and enhance the attractiveness of your product.

Thank you for considering this matter. I would appreciate your consideration and response.

Best regards,
Yuri.
