Camera Plugin : File format and processing

[roxteddy]

Hello !

I see in the doc that CameraPhoto has a "format" field
// The format of the image, ex: jpeg, png, gif.
format : string;

However, my PNGs always result to JPGs
Also my JPGs don't do the same size in photo library and once loaded from Camera Plugin so they seem to be reprocessed
I tried to get them in different output types (dataURL, URI..) or to disable "correctOrientation" (to disable reprocessing ?)

I'd really like to get the exact same file I choose from the library.
Is this intended or is there any kind of limitation or did I miss something ?
I don't remember having those problems with cordova-plugin-camera

Problem case : I want to upload a picture to networks with a 5MB limit. Sometime I pick a 2MB but quite large in pixels and the file results to be larger than 5MB.

🙏🏻
