Bug Description

It seems the video resolution setting keeps on resetting to 720p whenever I switch between back/front camera. If I only use eg rear camera, the setting persists also reopening the app.

This causes unintended lower quality video recording.

I'm using turbo with rc-proposed 102.

Adding that also aspect ratio resets to 16:9 on each switch, making it cumbersome to use 4:3 on either camera.

Same problem. I always set the highest quality in video in photo mode, but switching to front camera resets the settings to medium. Very annoying.

I can confirm this on BQ Aquaris E4.5 with OTA-12, when video settings are set to 1080p they constantly revert to 720p.
