I've spent days (well, nights) trying to work this out. So many examples online are for different versions of Android Studio, different versions of Android, different versions of OpenCV and I can't get any of them to the final 'working' stage.
This example (based on a youtube tutorial, I got to the point where I needed permissions. That's fine, I added that in and a check for them, and it pops up asking the user for camera permissions. But the screen stays blank. I've put in logcat debug, all the right methods seem to be getting called. Would appreciate any assistance.
Code:

And my res layout activity_main.xml file:

<RelativeLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context=".MainActivity">
<org.opencv.android.JavaCameraView
android:id="@+id/my_camera_view"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
/>
</RelativeLayout>
As far as I can tell, I've linked them all correctly, I can confirm OpenCV initialises, permissions are checked and granted, but then...the JavaCameraView is just black.
