720p Video recording with i9000 even with lowest quality settings produces extremely large videos (3gp4, 8000 Kbps, with highest setting=12000kbps !). Is there any way to change the codec, or is there any 3rd party recording app with such capabilities available? thanks

I recorded a short clip of my voice with HTC's Voice recorder app. Then i went and downloaded TapeMachine Lite from the market. WOW what a difference. I always thought the DHD's poor audio recording was down to hardware, but clearly not. HTC for some reason set the audio output to 8000Khz, but TapeRecorder records at 44.1Khz or 48Khz, in a format of your choice (WAV is default).
So i was wondering, how easy would it be to implement this quality recording in the camcorder app? If someone does this then i'll happily shell out some money for the cause.
I just repeated what you've just posted. Wow, what a difference. Why this isn't default on the DHD camcorder I don't know.
I think the sample rate in the camcorder is a limitation of the audio codec that is used, just guessing tho as I'm not sure of the all the limitations with aac-lc

no the camera 720p encoding is AVC h264 with AAC audio, the standard is baseline L3.1 and based on this standard the audio should be encoded at 44khz 160kb bitrate
8khz is just one of those amazingly stupid things HTC keeps on slipping in, i don't know if its done to lower the stress on the recording frame rate
i sent them an enraged email about this a while ago and all they said that its passed on to the accurate department
but with 8khz i was surprised at the loudness of the recording, which explains your post today
can someone fix it with a patch? and while at it, please increase the screen red saturation a little
I want to start a thread regarding Gnote Video Recording and i have few questions. I use 720p for recording as i have found the recorded video more stable then in 1080p by meening less wobbly/jelly effect, and I also use the stock app for recordings, I have heard the lgcamera is even better but havent tried yet, i dont use any rate/bitrate hacks. Do you guys use the same setup for video recordings or you have found some better video quality recorded videos with some other setup. My recordings usually have:
VIDEO
Data rate 13000kbps
Total bitrate also 13000kbp
Frame rate 29 F/sec
AUDIO
Bitrate 115kbps
Stereo
Sample rate 44khz
I use Franco 10# kernel and CheckRom V5
The purpose is the same of the Photo Quality topic: know the capacity of this device, in this case, about video recordings.
The quality of video recording is variable of rom to rom. Some rom can improve the bitrate and get an image more sharper with more vivid colors. Then, if possible, let's know that rom you used to recording your video.
My sample was recorded with True Ancestor Rom(I think). Apparently, with low bit rate, because the recorded was set to 720p, but the quality is not great thing.

Unfortunately, the tags to embed youtube videos, for some reason is not working for this topic.
it would be interesting to see how fast the S5 can actually record video, especially at lower resolutions
the built in "slow motion" "1/8" mode would suggest its capturing at 240fps at 1280x720? Somehow I doubt that.
But who knows what its capable of at 640x480..might be able to capture insanely fast and we could have a really cool high speed video app.
The SDK says: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/media/MediaRecorder.html#setCaptureRate%28double%29
public void setCaptureRate (double fps)
Added in API level 11
Set video frame capture rate. This can be used to set a different video frame capture rate than the recorded video's playback rate. This method also sets the recording mode to time lapse. In time lapse video recording, only video is recorded. Audio related parameters are ignored when a time lapse recording session starts, if an application sets them.
Parameters
fps Rate at which frames should be captured in frames per second. The fps can go as low as desired. However the fastest fps will be limited by the hardware. For resolutions that can be captured by the video camera, the fastest fps can be computed using getPreviewFpsRange(int[]). For higher resolutions the fastest fps may be more restrictive. Note that the recorder cannot guarantee that frames will be captured at the given rate due to camera/encoder limitations. However it tries to be as close as possible.
Can this be taken at face value? I.e. can you really see what the phone will max out at fps-wise at a given resolution?
Could someone make an app to do this test and show how fast it can capture at various resolutions?
Hi,
I am experimenting with the oneplus two camera, i have cynogenmod 12.1 running with the app "cinema 4k", which allows
to set a bitrate of 200mbps for 4k video. the videos it produces only have 160mbps, so there must be some cap in the
h264 encoder or in the device itself. i guess there will be some hardcoded limit somewhere in the quallcom encoder libraries?
does anyone know what part limits the video bitrate on an android device? i already modified media_profiles.xml to set the
bitrate higher (to 300mbps) but it is still recording at 160mbps.
i would like to test how much the device can handle, and how the video quality would be at 250mbps+
because the camera seams really great for video recording at nighttime
thanks, christian
