I've searched and tried all the camera tweaks avaliable to try to help my 8125 record better video. I've changed the FPS registry from 10 FPS to 15 to 19...its still very laggy. I don't mind that the quality is only mediocore, I just wish it wasn't so laggy. Maybe someone with super knowledge can help with some registry tweaks or additional programing?
BTW, this forum rocks. I come here everyday and read alot but this is my 1st post :lol:
This is the closes thing I've ever found

Strange I would have figured getting better Video quality would be of Priority.
I thought by now they'd have a cab file with video Tweaks like they did for the cam but idk ?
I'd Love to know if thre is. Closest thing I've seen is the Coolcamera app and looks tempting to Get . Only $17.90 ...worth it considering I use the Cam + video ALOT !
Is there any chance to improve the video record quality because the current highest mode does really suck! Its really blurry and many fractals are included.
Is there any system hack or upgrade?
Help would be appreciated!
yes please any one !!!
me to i need any app or upgrade or even tweak to capture a real video from about 4 years i ve a pda2 with cool camera programme it captures video better than nokia n95 8gb an n86 but even it ve 1 mp camera but now jade ve 3.2 and also same 520 mhz powerfull cpu but what a crappy video take >>> .....
so please anyone help if anyone succeded in opening cool camera or to achieve better performance in that suckkin camera please help !!!!!
hi, me too, i'm searching for a better program. I think its possible with 528MHZ to record 640x480 videos.

My fello Jade users. Video recording is not only dependant on programs used or storage size. Foremost it needs a reasonably good "lens" specs and jade does not have that. .. get a vidcam..

Dear azahidi,
I had a HTC Touch (elf) before with aweful video recording quality. After I installed Coolcamera the video quality got improved alot. Unfortunalty Coolcamera is not supported on Devices with qualcomm CPUs
It has nothing to do with the "lens" ... at that point you are wrong!

Yes.. may be. I guess the lens in Jade could be the same spec as (and could also be used in) those vidcams producing HD videos.
I really love the phone and especially its photo capabilities.
Yet the video lags while recording are really bad.
Here a random unedited testvideo
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_NbXSOsVaE0
At the end theres no sound which probably results from the freezing where no sound is recorded.
Therefore the video is longer than the recorded sound.
I just checked and firmware is up to date, battery was full & taskkiller emptied RAM before recording.
Hope there is a fix incoming

Oh Ok i don't make videos, so i m not sure... Just tested video capturing 2 minurtes after turn off image stabilizor & it was fine.. But i had all other settings default
there is a known bug in the video recording of the arc, check some other threads on here. It has been reported to S.E so hopefully they will release a patch to solve the problem.
Is the sound on playback alot better than the X10? Because the X10 sounds pretty damn bad! Like im in a tin can.

Did you own an X10 before to make that comparison?

I took a test video and it looks and sounds just fine to me. Mind you, I don't have a billion apps running in the background either.
P.S. The stabilization is ON

Sounds and looks good. Nice dog btw!
Ps. Is it better to use image stabilization when video recording? I know its bad for photos, but didnt really know about video.

Well, with stabilization on you get distortion as the frame moves, but it's hardly noticeable. Beats a jerky video.

No. When I had X10 for a moment I didn't record any video.

Why image stabilization is bad for images?

It destroys the image with to much compression. Usually ends up with a more blurry pic.
But im speaking from the Xperia X10, not the Arc. But I could only assume its the same as of now.
ive just replaced the memory card on my arc to a 16gb kingston class 4.....seems marginally better with regards to video stutter...need to run a few more tests first though.

Yeah that a **** video dude..I ve got the same problem..The video lags a lot..I dont know whether there is a solution..hopefully a 3rd party app??
My mum told me to record my little brother's rehearsal for the regional artistic cycling tournament (he got silver btw ) cuz she was at work .The vid lagged so badly, also with the 5 sec freezing and some random 1 sec freezing. The whole performance is only about 10 min. I tried with and without image stabilization and some other settings as I was desperate to get it recording. In the end I asked my brother to do it again and used the milestone(Droid) from the coach to record it.
I have the fragments of the recording on my arc if anyones interested
Not that I care much of the performance as its his first year, but my mum was angry and laughing at my phone.
Bottom line: Awesome cam but useless videorecording.
Sony should come up with something..Video recording is ****.. :S
Hello,
i noticed in a other Forum that the voice quality is very very bad when you recording a Video.
I also asked the men, if he has his finger on the microphones but he answerd that the microphones a free.
Look at this video:

Do you know a solution for this problem??
I'm sorry for my english, not the best.

do u mean that the sound is bad no matter what?
fwiw I have recorded probably 20 videos already, never noticed a problem with sound. I do not expect studio quality THX level sound though from my phone.

yeah, ur right. I dont expect a THX quality as well, but I just checked Xperia Arc does it in 48KHz and iPhone 4 in 44KHz and the iphone's sound quality seems quite good, but I guess it might have a better mic
hi all;
especially my question/ask is to Pongster and/or Hyperdroid team.
i like your rom and still using it bu i have a problem with sound. it is so low...i use some app but i didn't satisfied about them. despite i set all voices loud i cannot hear my phone on a crowded place. with winmo6.5 it was really high.
could you please anyone inform me how can i set my HD2 voice???
With Volume+ (Free Version), my sound is perfect, loud and clear.
Am thinking of using this build. How is its battery consumption and camcorder recording? Can it record at 720p for up to 30min?
