See the comments on orientation in the QCARSampleActivity.java file. Portrait should work on 2.2 devices. We suggest sticking with landscape if you would like your app to work on 2.1 devices.

When the screen is set to portrait the buttons,labels etc are set to portrait and the video from the camera is landscape set inside the portrait screen. (appears small and vertically squashed)

What I did do was change

setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE);

to

setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT);

Then played about in the configureVideoBackground() method in the QCARSampleActivity.cpp file to get the screen dimensions correct.

Which device are you using again? Also, which version of the Android OS is on it? Thanks!
