Quick question about HD Video Capture - Vibrant General

Can someone do a video comparrison on the vibrant, between HD video capture to the 16gb built-in ram and HD video capture to, say, a Class 4 Micro SDHC card?
I just want to see if it is consistent, or if the video quality will degrade\appear less with the use of the slower media?
I would greatly appreciate it, if video could be posted to youtube or someone could attach the actual raw footage to a reply on this thread... but if not, at least a comparrison...
I have asked this question, 2 days ago, on another forum, and as of yet, have not received an answer...

One more bump to the top.

I'm uploading two short videos now. Both are shot at 1280x720 resolution. Both links are HD so I would be on a desktop (and I would also pause it at the start to let it fully download before playing). I have to say neither look very impressive. I'm sure others who know more could do better. Also, I saw you posted this thread TWICE, AFTER I decided to help (and in the Development section).
Next time if you do that, don't expect any help.... please do not be that guy.... if you are, just go to another forum.
Internal Memory
SD Card

Yeah...not real impressed by either one but thanks for taking the time!

1000x thanks to you....for doing this for me...
No, the video is not stellar, in the low light... but it does look the same which is awesome...
I do apologize for posting twice... I posted this question on androidcentral's forums... and it sat there for 2 days..
SO I posted it in the developement forum (out of ignorance) and was told that it should be over here... so I responded hoping a mod would move it over here... nothing happened so I posted it in here...
Sorry for the confusion...

I've had pretty good results with an outdoor shoot. I mean its better to catch my 4year old and 11month playing on something that isn't the greatest vs loose catching it at all.

Same here. I love that I can even capture HD video footage from my phone, yet alone I think every video I have shot so far looks amazing to me.
I have ZERO complaints. I mean come on, like I said, we are capturing high definition video from our phone....

What exactly is unimpressive about it? What were you expecting? I couldn't see a difference between either; and I thought both were excellent - for a phone! I haven't seen dedicated HD camcorders, but given that they are typically $500+ with hardware dedicated for video shooting, I'd say that this is extremely impressive. But even just as videos I think they are very very good.
Can you provide a link to something that you do find impressive? I'm not being dismissive or facetious, just wanted to know what the standard is. Thanks.

is it jst me or does the inernal memory video look a little brighter then the sd one...sd one looks a little bluer...both look great tho..jst commenting on any differences

^ I've watched both side by side and it could be my monitor not being great, but it was hard to tell much of a difference. I wish I spent a little more effort on those videos, but they work okay i suppose. Perhaps someone else will do more of a color test of sorts....

wow, those look incredible for a cell phone. Keep in mind that 720 is just a resolution, there is much more goes into video than just the resolution. For instance bit rate, and the sensors used to capture the video.

Some people are never satisfied imo....I shot a video of my dads turtle eating on some tomato and I was blown away by the video quality that a PHONE can provide..I will try to upload the video and share with guys.

Another Post About Evo Vidoe Recorder *Video Included*

So here are 2 videos, The top one is from recording with my EVO and the bottom is from my last Palm Pre. I guess I just want an understanding, what is the cause of this and is it because its at 24fps , is the Evo not fast enough recording this fast motion? Can this be fixed with software? Thanks an Enjoy

Seriously, I hope they fix that video.
Here is one of my dog that doesn't look anywhere near as bad as yours. This was from my evo. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iZFE8AmVbGs
Ah, embarrassing that the Pre-Video is so much better. Maybe the Cyanogenmod has some solutions for this garbage. Yeah video isn't that bad in daylight etc...but wow in lower light settings...nothing drastic, it still is pretty sub-par.

Your video was set to Private and really, dont see a difference? Look at the Shadowing , you dont see that or trailing on the Pre vid
Hopeful for a fix tho, I even tried lowering the settings and same issue, weird though , If I use Qik to record however, I dont get the trailing or shadowing, but very compressed. I guess like everyone says, it has to do with teh 3GP compression etc.
should be able to see my vid now, sorry about that.
I used qik to make my video.

Nice vid of dogs, It makes me miss my pits
dang I want 60 FPS lol hopefully soon
wow, the EVO's video is just plain embarrassing.
Well theres one thing you have to remember..
The pre video is being recorded at a higher framerate and lower resolution.
The 24 FPS does seem to make a difference but it could also be the way youtube handles video..
Bah, i don't know the evo one looks like crap
The pre video looks much smoother. I hope they fix this ****!!
Try both outside in daylight.
They should perform similarly or the evo will pwn.
Wow. I tested my video mode of my Evo a few weeks ago down on the coast of washington and posted the videos on my youtube. They came out just fine on a major overcast / cloudy day.

improvements to video with Froyo

What exactly did HTC fix or improve in video recording? Running stock 2.1 every 5 seconds i had sound problems where it would sort of pause for about one second and now on a different evo with 2.2 same problem. Anyone else experienced this?
This is only when recording with 720p.

I had this problem in 2.1. Haven't had a chance to test it in 2.2. I'll try to post back when I have tested it.
Not having your problem, but a bigger one. Fresh 2.2 - 3.0.1 and shot a lot of outdoor videos this week in Hawaii using lots of different settings: h.254/480 and MPEG4/720 - It all looks like ****!!! Therefore, a much bigger problem.

evo is a terrible recording device. The software is junk, the parts are junk. Theres no end to how frustrated I am with the audio quality of the videos recorded. Instead of lugging around a dedicated video recorder and a phone I think I might just get an iphone 4.. I love recording videos and uploading them to youtube/facebook for people to see my life @ concerts,clubs.. its just retarded how htc boned us and cheaped out on one of the most important selling points of this phone.. I feel ripped off.. slapped in the face..
Hell the ipod nano 5th generation has better video/audio quality then evo's "720 P"

I agree with this. The video recording on the EVO is a total joke. 720p my ass! More like 120p.
Droid X and iPhone 4 are worlds apart in this category. Sad!
Personally, I don't think the photo camera is all that good either. In fact I think its also **** for a so-called 8MP camera.
Thanks HTC!
Htc needs to fix this....a majority can be fixed threw software...lazy htc ...we sould email or boycott or something.

I tempered my expectations because I knew it was a phone, but when two of your selling points are 8mp camera and 720p recording they should be decent.
I have had good luck using the camera, and I gotten great shots (especially considering it is a phone) But the stock camcorder was HORRIBLE, and it makes 720p fans cry!
Cyanogen's rom has made video recording better for me.

This genius took the plastic off in the store.
This genius is also a professional photographer and knows the limitations of cameras and lenses so I expected little from a cell phone, but I experienced less than I expected.
The video is not 720p, that is a downright lie.
The 8mp camera, yes it is 8mp, but it is poor quality.
I run CM6 and it has a slightly better take on the cam and camcorder.
Even after multiple attempts to adjust the media_profiles.xml and the different configuration files there is little we can get from it. There is an entire thread about this is 28 pages long.

^^^ very good point.
Plus I would imagine that utilising a 720p resolution is goig to have a major impact on the already mediocre framerate.
IMO theres not much point having 720p recording if its going to be at 5fps.
Hopefully im wrong and it will be silky smooth at 720p
Well on robsbay.co.uk it has said for a while now that 720p is defiantly working but isn't in any builds yet.
I'm not sure if he actually means defiantly or definitely...
X2 on 720 not being worth it. High resolution video through a crummy lens is just a bad idea. Giant crappy video is still crappy video. Pick up a Kodak Zi8 if you want HD video on the cheap.

I disagree... yes, the quality will always be worse than a real video camera but the same applies to still images. DSLRs are head and shoulders above the best camera phone, so would you say camera phones might as well have stayed at VGA resolution instead of 5 or 8 MP common these days?
Unless there are framerate issues I'd love HD video capture. Some phones it's not so great, but some are pretty impressive given everything (the Samsung Galaxy S seem to do pretty crisp 720p).

Is 720P Important to You?

Hey guys, quick question for nexus one users. Do you guys consider taking 720p video important? I know you could do the 720p hack, but the quality is so-so with alot of stuttering. Do you guys find vid recording a selling point or just a perk thats not really necessary.

*lol, like the vid!
I'd trade 720p for better quality pictures, so no, it's not that important to me, but nice to have nevertheless.
forgot to put in the reason why im asking.
i love the vanilla UI and i LOVE (you have no idea) the Nexus One styling. This is the phone i wanted for a really long time. But the thing is, the nexus one is lacking in apps (one in particular that i play everyday, bejewled blitz) and its lacking in the HD recording department (and touch to focus). Im trying to decide if those two things are worth going back to the iphone. The ironic thing is, i dont even take videos on the iphone. i think its the fact that its nice to have.
being stuck in the middle blows.

You're comparing a year old phone with a few months old phone...not working, compare it with the 3Gs!
I don't have an iPhone 4 but I'm pretty sure the iPhone has better video/picture quality than the Nexus
It's not that important to me now, but may be in the near future...
It is not as good as the iPhone 4's but the Nexus One is an older, less powerful phone. The video quality is adequate.

I tried both 120fps at 1/4 and 120fps at 1/8.
The output is very low quality comparing to iphone 5s slow motion.
Any feedback is welcome.
Do you know a better slow motion app?
Do you have a recommended settings?

was that at 1/8? or 1/4. 120FPS at 1/8 is still gonna give you a pretty choppy 15fps even if you export the video at 30
from what it looks like, the iphone 5 usually goes to 1/4 which would still be smooth at 30
i noticed discrepancies in different note 2 slow mo videos and how they did things.

I don't think it has a problem: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3BLiCKiLFbM
Here's a video from sam pullen at 1/8 and its noticeably more smooth than your sample
This same also looks pretty decent: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WL1BfkzPQ5I
however, like i mentioned above, this would one would look better if he shot at 1/4 instead of 1/8 simply because then you're voluntarily reducing it to 15 FPS.
Additionally, looking at iphone5 slomo videos, it's pretty apparent that their movie editor to set the slomo sections does make use of interpolation. Thus, if you really wanted to use the slomo for anything beyond just a for fun thing, and you're editing a video of a trip or something with slow mo sections, just take that 1/4 footage, run it through twixtor and bam, you can even do stuff like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s0Kb1hDdseY
Basically. don't shoot at 1/8 unless you plan to interpolate it.
Apple's slowmo is post processed, so feel free to compare the two after you post process your own
granted, its more convenient the other way, i THINK the HTC gallery might handle that. considering the camera got ported a few months ago, it's possible the gallery will get ported to make help make slowmo clips on the fly.

Thus, if you really wanted to use the slomo for anything beyond just a for fun thing, and you're editing a video of a trip or something with slow mo sections, just take that 1/4 footage, run it through twixtor and bam, you can even do stuff like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s0Kb1hDdseY
Basically. don't shoot at 1/8 unless you plan to interpolate it.
Apple's slowmo is post processed, so feel free to compare the two after you post process your own
granted, its more convenient the other way, i THINK the HTC gallery might handle that. considering the camera got ported a few months ago, it's possible the gallery will get ported to make help make slowmo clips on the fly.

Well if you find your example videos decent then we are not on the same page.
I found those quiet ****ty. Event the one with seagulls, the original poster hated his own video.
About iphone5's slow mo, I don't care what iPhone software does. The outcome is 10 times better than Note3 unfortunately. And I find dumb to say ''use 1/4'' when there is a 1/8 option.
It reminded me of people who pretend to be happy about their phone's battery life by saying ''Don't enable wifi and 3g. Reduce the brightness and don't sync your email''

Lol ok there buddy, no need to get pissy. Just offering and explanation and solution to your so called "problem"
At the end of the day, 1/8 will come out to 15 FPS in a 30 FPS video. Have you ever played a game at 15 FPS? Its bad. Why would a 15 FPS video magically be better. No matter what, that fact is not going to change. If a few at 1/8 is smooth at 30 FPS, then there is additional interpolation going on. If you actually have the pride to get something done yourself, figure it out, it's not hard. If you want to sit there and continue to whine in the same tone you just did, then you're more than welcome to return your note and get yourself an iPhone, noone will really care.
Quite franky, if I were to speak like you, "i don't care" if you cant get your slomo to look nice, because I know I will be able to. It's the same thing with goPro slow motion video. Have you seen what the RAW looks like? not pretty. Why do those videos look so good? interpolation and post processing. If there was an App on android that handled that, then you can run off and buy it and stop whining. But until then, you will either have to make do....or abandon it.
Just to summarize things again for you in case you actually want to put some work into it rather than complain.
1) If you want to go to 1/8, you'll need to interpolate, period, that's just how it works, learn some video basics if you need to
2) The easiest way for you to do that with the best quality is using sony vegas + twixtor
3) If you want to go deeper into it, I use premiere/after effects + twixtor.
Doing 2000 FPS shots are pretty fun but basic rules of video apply, none of this is magic.
Also seagulls? Have you never seen a duck in your life before?

I saw one duck only. Replying in xda threads
Don't get pissy dude. I apologize if I sound too aggressive.,
At the end of the day all your suggestions are helpful and I appreciate for that.
I just meant to say that I am not happy with the outcome of the slow mo when comparing it with iPhone 5's slow mo.
But I respect the fact that you're happy and you like it. That's it.
Thanks again.
I look forward to a potential update from Samsung

No worries, I appreciate the change in tone.
I know what you mean, and I feel the same way (on the fly interpolation would be awesome), but if HTC can do it, then i'm sure it's only a matter of time before it gets ported or somebody else writes one on the play store.
As for vegas and twixtor, i'm not allowed to post torrent links or anything like that but both are very popular and should only take 30 minutes to download and you'll be able to do a lot more cool stuff with it anyways.
I was also bitterly disappointed in the slow motion capture on my note 3
Its not that the capture or frame-rate is bad its the overall quality
recording in a 720p resolution don't mean S*%T if the bit-rate is S*%T
Every video ive tried is very distorted and pixelated should never be possible in a 720p hd clip
Samsung needs to better optimise the capture and encoding
did you take off the plastic on the lens?
hehe jk..

lol
it looks ok i suppose on phone but when you attempt to watch on tv omg it looks like it was taken with a Nokia 3210 and they didnt even have cameras
While it is a shame the videos are not a tad clearer, seeing as how my htc one x's slow motion was choppy as hell when i had one, im happy enough with it, i'll only be using it for stupid things anyway, lol...like this...http://youtu.be/UAxXLZDnPrY. (next im planning to film a small air cannistor bunged on a bonfire and the resulting explosion!)
and here it is. http://youtu.be/N4ff9DsoU28

Well.... (DON'T FIGHT!)
Stop Fighting, Guys!
iPhone and Note are both 1280x720@120fps but there's another huge problem:

And well, another one but not equal to this thread

Hi guys
The samsung galaxy note 3's slow motion video is quite bad
I tried both 120fps at 1/4 and 120fps at 1/8.
The output is very low quality comparing to iphone 5s slow motion.
Any feedback is welcome.
Do you know a better slow motion app?
Do you have a recommended settings?
Thanks

I know what:
See this
Slow motion is a gimmick. It's just a normal video slowed down, there is no 120fps capture going on.
