Video recording resolution - HD2 General

I think I've done something somewhere... I can't seem to change the resolution for recording videos.
It seems to be stuck at S (128x96). It's all grayed out and I can't press it.
Capture format is MPEG4, but even if I change it to another format, the issue remains.
I've also applied the video tweaks posted here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=583638 but still no go.
Any ideas?

No one else is having this problem?

same here. anybody?

Youtube and video format problem (HELP).

I recorded a movie with hd2 in mpg4 format.
And i wanted to put in on youtube, but there is a problem.
Movie recording in 60fps which makes a problem on YT uploading.
Tried to convert it to other format but most converting software speed up movie (possibly dropping frames as need to be a 25fps)
Any way to change FPS in registry for this format? Or change some option to record in 25FPS but still in mpeg4 format??
only i have hd2 in this forum?
last bump
have mercy
thanx for help
How did you get it to record 60fps?
I don't have that option on mine.
i belive its an auto option without setting switch.
If you check it with some editing software i says 60fps.
Youtube dont let u upload that format.
And thats why im lookin for a registry hack.
Sounds more like you have a corrupt file than an issue with settings as it isn't automatic. Mine is standard and reports between 13 and 29.99 frames a second...
Corruption is not possible, all my videos are recorded in this format

Video recording not working in 640x480

Guys, my video recording does not work in 640x480 nor in 320x240. Sound is recorded, but no video... Only CIF works like expected (Video with sound).
Anyone else with that prob?
Thanks,
Marti
Hi,
i got the same problem.. there are only sound on the video recording..
The same after installing "ringtone-patch".
got the same problem. only works in CIF resolution with H.264
I do not have any problem recording video both on momory and SD card and with sound in 640x480 / MP4.
Could you explain how to reproduce this behaviour ?
I fixed it by deleting HKLM\Software\HTC\Camera\recparam\MP4VGA registry key.
If you afraid of deleting, try to rename it.

YESSSSSS!!!
It works fine after deleting of this reg key.
Best regards to all,
Marti
is it really working?
when I bought HD Mini the recording in VGA quality worked fine. I did some customizing (nothing unusual- just installed some apps and tweaked manila to my liking) and.... the VGA mode stopped working. It records audio only. I tried to delete the MP4VGA registry key and after this HD Mini records video in VGA but:
1) the video quality is very poor when compared to the recordings before problems. I checked the files- the resolution is the same (640x480) but the bitrate is drastically lower- it is 375 and used to be 1441. it looks awful
2) the funny thing is that when I opened the registry editor the deleted key is back again. I am a newbie to registry editing and have no idea if I deleted it the "wrong" way and how it restores itsef. I tried several times and after soft reset the key is back again
My most important question is: mrmartischmi and darknos- can you record a high quality files ( hi bitrate?) after the tweak?
thank you
@robertszydlo:
Sorry for the late answer.
You are right:videos have a very low bitrate and thus are of bad quality.
Its false to delete the folder MP4VGA.
I restored it from my backup and set the key "Bitrate" to 1500000.
This made my Videos look much better and the Bitrate returned to be about 151 kBps instead of only 40. Higher values did not work though.
Hope this helps, I am investigating more at the moment...
(maybe someone can post the complete "original" keys of the MP4VGA folder?)
Thanks so far,
Marti
yeah! this one really works (Thanks mrmartischmi!) but it gets me even more confused
after setting the value to 1500000 my phone records great looking videos but the files and the bitrate(well over 3000 now ) are huge! I don't have a problem with large files - it just makes me think:
-what was the original value ( can someone please check and post?)
-why in the world it stopped working? can I expect now to work continuosly and not fail while recording my masterpiece video ?
thank you
@robertszydlo:
I only got 151 kBps, how can yours be 3000?
Did you check on the PC with Quicktime or something else?
Could you post the size, duration and bitrate of a sample video so I can check with the parameters of one of mine?
I am pretty confident, we will understand it in the near future

I'm using 1.32.479.2 WWE ROM with the last HTC hotfix installed. Bellow is MP4VGA key folder, exported from my registry and a screen with info about a short video i've just made.
I've checked the "bitrate" key and mine is 1500000 too.
Hope it helps.
EDIT: the keys have the original values and i don't have any problem with video recording.
mrmartischmi,
I am not any math expert so I can make mistakes- that's why I don't try to convert bits to bytes or do any math I just give you the numbers I see on my mac screen when I "get info" about the new file (value in registry set 1500000) it says it is 640x480, codecs MPEG-4 Video, AAC duration 00:16 audio channels 1 , Total bit rate 3,217. It is probably the bitrate of audio+video in bits? I am not sure how it compares to your 151kBps but your bitrate can be video only expressed in KB.... there are probably many guys on this forum that can enlighten us
ci6i,
thanks for help, the one thing that is strange to me is that before any tweaks my phone recorded files with much smaller total bitrate ( get info says 1486) so maybe in my rom the original registry value was lower?
anyway, yesterday I recorded really long files and everything works, so I am happy
@robertszydlo:
Sorry, it was not my intention to bother you with maths... I was just wondering, why the rates are so different although using the same keys in registry. Could you post the filesize of the small clip you mentioned before so I can compare these parameters to a clip of mine?
@ci6i:
Thanks a lot for your help. I compared the values of the reg key to the ones I have now and they are ecactly the same.
So the question is: why did robertszydlo recorded videos with a much smaller bitrate before the tweaking? Maybe there are other keys to change ...
I'v discovered days ago that this bug is generated by using BsB Tweaks with option "Video MPEG4 Bitrate" enabled or HD2 Tweak with corresponding option enabled..........don't use this tweaks utils if not certified with HD MINI....
hi mrmartischmi,
I uploaded 2 videos- nr 1 is recorded the first day I got the phone, no tweaks
nr 2 i after the last tweaks (value 1500000 in registry) ... bigger bitrate ant bigger file. Can I see difference in quality? well- I am not sure- see for yourself
@ SoftWord: you are probably right! I switched the bsb bitrate tweak on, and this could cause the whole problem, thanks for your input
The best quality I got when remove all keys from MP4VGA registry folder except one: BitRate = 1500000. but 15 seconds video is almost 6Mb on card
Notice: If you leave FrameRate = 20 or 30 in MP4VGA, video file size will be about twice less and quality will be worse.

Problem with camcorder resolution

Hello,
I can not change the video resolution of the camcorder. It is stuck to S(128x96)".
when recording a video the quality is bad.
If I look at the settings, resolution is "S(128x96)" in light grey so I am not able to select and change it.
I had the same problem a few weeks ago and did a hard reset which solved the problem, but I had to set all parameters,mail, ... again, and I don't want to keep doing that.
I read the post "Video recording not working in 640x480" but the solutions there (changing bitrate, deleting the registerkey,...) are not working
Changing MPEG4 to H.263 or H.264 is not helping either.
Is there a way I can unlock or edit the register to record in a good quality?
can anyone upload the registry order from the camera ?
than can everybody with cam problems download it and fix the problem
sry for my english
did you install Bsb? on yor HD mini?
BsB was not installed.
I installed it now.
There are more options for the video format, but the resolutions still is "S(128x96)" in light grey... This is so for all video formats...
Try to hard format the phone.
I did hard format the phone the first time I got this problem. It indeed solves the issue, but as I had to reinstall all extra programs and make all setting again, I would like to solve the issue this time without having to hard format (reset)...
how about try to restart your phone.
yes. restarted phone, even took out battery for some time. But it did not work.
I just noticed that MMS Video has the same problem. I can not change the resolution but here it is M(176x144)
I also stopped all running programs in the task manager, but it did notsolve the problem.
I presume some program is locking the resolution setting?

[Q] video recording help

I have noticed that when I put videos that I have recorded on my droid x on my computer in the details the video was shot at about 15fps. I have the camcorder set to 720p hd and I thought it was supposed to 24fps. Does anyone know how to fix this. Also is there a way to change the video out put file from .3gp to .mp4. I saw you can alter the etc/media_profiles.xml but when I change the file to .mp4 it still outputs to .3gp. Any help would be appreicated. Thanks

Youtube video:
I guess Im the only one with this problem....
op updated with a youtube video. You can see the jumping strating from the middle of the video...
Just to update this thread for future reference, I have returned the phone and got a replacement N910C (instead of F). This new one has no problem with camera etc..
