I was wondering if there is a script or app that will permit me to change the brightness and contrast on my N900 front camera?!

There is a configuration file you can change to adjust contrast and brightness, but I haven't got a clue where it is, sorry.

agree with you all but what are you guys using iy for? internet call? or does 3g video call works in pr 1.3? i saw somewhere in setting saying show 3g/video call option. one of the service provider in my country started offering video calls at rate of normal call but sad my n900 is just like those iphones with kind of useless front cam(not doing itd primary function).

Ok...the other day i was looking to make a video call with one of my friend via Skype video call, but i noticed that the quality was so bad i can hardly see my self in there and u must imagine that i was in a well lighted room!!
PS: With PR 1.2 wasn`t much better but lets say it was ok!!

To change the brightness and contrast of front camera
gst-launch v4l2src device=/dev/video1 ! ffmpegcolorspace ! videobalance brightness=0.5 contrast=1.2 ! autovideosink
The "brightness" property
Allowed values: [-1,1] Default value: 0
The "contrast" property
Allowed values: [0,2] Default value: 1
You might need to install gstreamer0.10-plugins-good-extra for the video balance pipeline to be present.
Apparently you can change gamma too but I've not found that yet.
BTW I found all this using power search and searching the terms 'front brightness', just so you know.
