You will need to write a new source element wrapping
around Android's camera preview API. From there you
should be able to get complete frames. You will need
JNI for the task as there's no native API (or wasn't
last time I looked) for this use case.

As a reference you can look around -bad/sys/androidmedia
, that code does something similar for decoding. Also,
google around a bit because related questions had
popped up here and on gstreamer-android@ already.

Good luck,
