We have a lot of size options when recording but I only see option to record in 3gp format? Or am I missing something?
Edit: Plus the PDF from T-Mobile does not have an HD option listed on there...
Hey I up this one,
i'm also wondering if it is possible to record in some other format than 3gp, like they can on the DHD for instance.
Reading 3gp is a pain, i can't plug my phone to my TV to watch a video I recorded, and it's hardly watchable on a random computer without installing an other player.
Nope, that's the only format that the camera is capable of recording to on official ROMs. Not sure about custom ROMs though. I wish I could record in WMV, AVI or MP4.

Virtuous unity is mp4 720p max.
Apparently virtuous doubleshot is mp4 1080p for the Z. No lag if you OC @ 1.7-2.0 ghz!
Eww that much OC is not necessary for me, neither I need to record 1080p.
But that's a good news !
I will switch to Unity then thanks !

Be careful here, apparently, of what a member told me, its a 1080p upscaling method. The hardware is the limitation.
Yup, it is a hardware limitation. The sensor just can't record 1080p.

It's ok, I'm currently using Virtuous Unity, and it records in 720P .mp4.
The mp4 part was the most important for me, as I can now plug and watch on my tv.

I just realized that the ROM I'm running on, meXdroidRom actually records in MP4! In the m4v container~

Has anybody tried to test it yet?

i tried play smoothly but no audio output
i got audio on my 720p clips.. and they look awesome by the way
-TB-
It depends on audio coding, from what i tested, about everything is supported except for OGG.
80% of my media collection works flawlessly on the SGS, videos look awesome.
Still haven't met a 720p file I've downloaded that didn't play flawlessly

Curiously every episode of a tv show by ctu displays no video, just sound. Everything else plays just fine. Anyone else noticed that?

Hi. I also used other players. Some, like rockplayer play the ctu videos but with such a low framerate as to be unwatchable. Maybe it's a codecs problem? Has anyone found a video player capable of playing everything?
Flawless on mine too

Mine plays 720 MKV file withaudio only and Rockplayer plays file with video but some smearing and audio out of sync.
The Samsung sample files that are avi 720 not MKV play really good.

Have you tried ctu tv shows?
Ctu releases are definately not working. But Dimension releases do.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Some will be DD, MP3, AAC, etc, it'll all depend on the codec, check it with TSMuxeR, it'll tell you what format it's in.
Also, my MKVs have all played fine, v good quality, audio is fantastic too. Even though the screen isn't a 720 screen, thus kinda pointless, it looks great. Damn sight easier than re-encoding them for the correct resolution at least

Gotta disagree on the "pointless" comment. You point out a major plus, re-encoding. Other purpose, video-output, I want to be able to serve my 720P content to computers and TVs, I would suffer a worse resolution or have to keep two files for each movie/video I *might* want to serve. 720P playback is a near God-send (IMHO).
The problem is with videos like ctu releases with 448 kbps audio. I've already sent an email to samsung to report the problem.

The thing it's that this ctu videos worked flawless on Samsung Wave.I hope this will be fixed in future firmwares.
I know someone did it for the Evo, where instead of recording in MP4, then converting to 3GP, it just records to MP4, and thats that.
Can this be done on the Moto Droid 1? I hate 3GP, and the quality is much lower compared to file size, so if I can get the camera app to record in MP4 only, that would be great. Any insight?
Agreed, the sound quality is terrible in .3gp.
Its frustrating as I do alot of filming with my phone (used to have an N95) and that was fine...
Any one who could shed some light on this would be great..

x2 who.... I mean I will search but just incase you can post faster than I can type let a fellow member know
I know that most videos cant play when thrown on xoom and must be converted and what not
but i wanted to ask has anyone tried playing untouched vids (mkv, avi) etc..
on Rockplayer or QQplayer (from market) does it work? (even 720p ones)
EDIT: Ima answer my own question here using an atrix 4g (same processor)
and its no (atleast for true 720p video, around 4 mbps bitrate), it stutters
the players arent optimized yet.
HOWEVER, converting in baseline profile for the xoom/atrix, you can do ANYTHING! (using badaboom)
even a 10mbps, 1920x1080p video, plays flawlesslY! what a beast (vid is below if you wanna test)

Hey i'm a noob here and i have a question
Is there any way to enable 1080p on my iconia so i can watch full hd movies like all the other honeycomb tablets out there? I have now flashed the virtuous picasso v1.0.8 rom and i noticed that i still can't watch 1080p videos on youtube. So my question is if there is any rom or kernel that can enable 1080p video playback?
Advanced thanks
you may try to use stock rom 4.010.22 or above which can automatically switch to 1080p output while playing 1080p video.

Are you talking about HDMI out? If Yes, then there are ROMs that can output 1080p trough HDMI. If you are talking about 1080p playback on the device itself then NO! There is NO Honeycomb tablet (yet) that can do 1080p in Adobe flash (youtube and others)
1080p
movies is lagging at 1080p this is killing me.
I am on the ota 3.1
If you're watching on the tablet itself, there's no point in watching 1080p. The screen only has 800px vertical pixels (landscape). Just use 720p on the tab. If going out to HDMI, are you getting lag?

There is still NO Hardware acceleration (for video) in Honeycomb so ALL of the Honeycomb tablets have this issue! ONLY MP4 Codec (h.264 Base) is supported and any other file format will use software rendering (slow choppy)!! Honeycomb is still an incomplete OS.
Oh and if someone is wondering why his/hers Android smartphone plays video better, the answer is simple: Most manufacturers enhance codec support on their devices(Samsung the most) and Android 2.2/2.3 is more polished OS with a lot of support! Another problem is that nVidia have still not made a driver for honeycomb that takes advantage of the hardware decoder in Tegra2
Example: My 7" Samsung Galaxy TAB although with only a single core CPU can play ANY 1080p I have thrown at it! But it is running Android 2.3.4
but samsung tabs does it, doesn't it ?

Nope! NO Honeycomb Tablet can display properly 1080p (other than MP4 h.264 Base) video!
Oh yes sorry, I've just reached the friend of mine that told me, he has indeed a galaxy tab but with gingerbread !
thanks for the info

Sent from my XT720 using XDA App
yea lets be clear on what the question is. It was said that 3.1 would enable 1080p hdmi out. still only 720p. whats the deal
So,
just watched the difference between my HTC Sensation and this tab, the Sensation plays almost every video, (well actually just every) way better then this tab.
Any recommendations (mods, kernels etc. )
Still have to wait for my replacement (pixel topic.. ) so i want to test any improvements before i'll flash the new one
Use MX Video Player.
