Currently the are highly compressed and slow to load. Need to improve this with the higher quality thumb nails

BACKLOG NOTES: HD Playback Aliasing (The "Fat Pixel" Issue)
The Problem: Sony LCD has non-square "fat pixels" requiring a 0.8888f horizontal squash. Doing this causes jagged, blocky aliasing on the review image.

Attempt 1 (GPU View Scaling): Tried using playbackImageView.setScaleX(0.8888f).

Result: CRASH. Threw NoSuchMethodError. Camera runs Android 2.3.7 (Gingerbread, API 10), and this hardware GPU method requires API 11+.

Attempt 2 (CPU Matrix + inSampleSize): Reverted to Matrix.postScale(0.8888f, 1.0f) but combined it with opts.inSampleSize = 8 and the filter=true flag to feed the matrix a pre-smoothed, memory-safe image.

Result: WORKS, BUT UGLY. Playback loads safely without OOM limits, but the Android 2.3 Bitmap.createBitmap filtering is still too weak. The image remains aliased.

Future Solutions to try later:

Force in AndroidManifest.xml to see if it forces the Matrix to use GPU bilinear filtering.

Bypass createBitmap entirely. Create a custom Canvas object, set a Paint with .setFilterBitmap(true) and .setAntiAlias(true), and physically paint the pixels onto the squished canvas ourselves.
