I need a way to use a device or another android phone to remotely control the video camera software on the other phone.
I have an LG V20 I need to control its camera software (the stock software)
I need to be able to hit the record video button the stop button and MOST critical pause and unpause video button. (while recording)
I want to use the V20 to make videos but to use the nicer 4k camera I need to face the phone toward me which means the screen will face AWAY from me. I can't see it or effectively touch it to interact with it.
being able to see the screen smoothly would be great but so far I have found ZERO viable solution for that. inkwire was the closest but its grainy low res has lots of issues and I can't CONTROL the phone (tap anything via the remote connection)
so I figure MHL connection to an HDMI screen. that lets me SEE the screen
now I just need a way to hit start/stop and pause/unpause reliably and quickly. ideally a physical remote of some sort or an app that has start/stop pause/unpause buttons.
any suggestions? all devices will be within arms length of each other. so something over network not needed. direct connect.
