I assume you're on Maemo5 (stream-engine is only for Maemo).

You don't have to call StartCamera(), its only there if you want to
start the camera before the call actually starts (like the Maemo5
default UI does).

VideoOutputSize and VideoPreviewSize are signals that tell the UI what
resolution the output/preview is so the UI can put its output window at
the right ratio.

That said, be careful, I'm not sure how will it will interact with the
official UI if you use stream-engine.
