Did anyone try to record MPEG-4 video with XDA II on your SD memory card?
I've tried Toshiba 256MB/128MB and Sandisk 128MB SD memory, and the frame skip rate is quite high. The video seems like being recorded at only 2~5 FPS. If you record the video for more than 2 mintues, you will find that the voice doesn't sync with the motion.
The maximum data transfer rate of Toshiba 256 SD memory is about 2MB/s. Thus I think this problem isn't due to the "relatively" slow transfer rate of my SD card(compared to the "fast" sd card of transfer rate up to 10MB/s). :roll:
Is there anyone who has the experience of recording MPEG-4 video on the SD card and suffers the same problem with me?
2 Questions and I will test this for you:
1. How do you record directly to the storage card?
2. How do you get sound with your movie?
Thanks,

Bump.
Can anyone answer these questions?

Hi,
To record a video directly to a storage card, in Camera mode, click the settings icon (the first from left to right icons at the buttom), then select Tools > Options... > Video. In there, at the buttom of the page, you'll see Folder and Change..., click it to choose the destination folder on Storage Card, and then click ok to save the settings.
To enable sound, above the Folder, there's a checkbox to chose "Recording with audio." Check this box to include sound in your video recording.
HTH.
Guh, I'm an idiot, only saw the options icons on the lower right.
Thanks so much for the reply, I appreciate it.
As far as the voice recording, anyone know if the system volume (device, not phone) has to be turned on? Will it work if it's on mute (or vibrate)? If not, does it make a difference if it's on the lowest volume notch vs. the highest?
I would run some tests myself, but I can't right now (XDA II isn't accessible atm).
Thanks for the reply.

And no problem here too, will find some time to test recording long video on SD.
Cheers. :lol:
I just got my 512MB Panasonic SD memory card(10MB/sec) tonight, and got it to test with the XDA II video recording function.
I found that the difference really existed when I recorded MPEG-4 video with a 2MB/s SD memory card compared to a 10MB/s SD memory card.
The video recording process is much smoother if you use the 10MB/s SD card to record the video, but once the video is recorded, there is no difference whether you are playing the video file on a 2MB/s SD card or on a 10MB/s SD card.
The conclusion is: the recording process is the key. You should get a faster card when recording a MPEG-4 video file.

re
omg I have only just realised this thanks to this thread. I have been recording vid on my xda 2 stored on my SD card, and the framerate and sound quality has been poor, but never had video on a PDA before so didn't really think too much of it.
Just completed some tests recording to the My Documents/pictures file which was the default location I think and video is superb in comparison, DOH.
In future all my vids will be recorded in phone memory, I'll just have to move them to storage card afterwards to avoid space problems.
N1, I offer no help or suugestions just confirmation of your own findings,
Cheers, Shire
Other then coolcamera?
something that can record in full screen (320x240) and have pretty high fps.
coolcamera seems to not like recording video to my storage card all the sudden and its making me mad, cuz now i have to save it to my phone and it eats up memory. video recording is crisp and not laggy when i record it to my phone, but its really choppy and laggy when i record while the settings are set to save in my storage card.

Hi,
i have a TwoDots Bluejay drone, on his box says it's 720P, but when i record video or take a picture (it has not SD card, the android app save video and photo directly from the video stream on phone memory) it saves with 640x480 and there is no options to set 720P resolution, i don't know if its an app problem, but if someone know how mod apps and if has time to try to mod it
I attached the APK
