Is there any option for such a feature on the Wildfire? Would be great if there's even an option for 480p recording. Not expecting 720p/1080p recording, but 480p is at least viewable
I found cm7 stable at 768 MHz. Just tried out video recording at that frquency.
The max was 352 x 288 resol with 25 fps and around 360kbps.
So maybe it is not possible to get 480p. And we should admit the fact that we got a phone with a cpu which is not the best one. The chipset and the presence/absence of gpu also matters to video recording. So I think no hope on that unless a dev works on this low end phone at the moment to improve it just a little bit.
I did find a app which broadcasted live video over wifi. from my wildfire the video was less then 1 frame a second above 240p. From the tab it was ok upto 480p

Not used to making video's as all my previous phones
Universal,Hermes,TytnII,Raphael,Touch HD didn't make them too well.
So just tried out making video's while driving (as a passenger) and
they look stunningly good. There's lot's of sun/cloud changes
and it picks up beautifully.
Frame rate is above 20FPS average in MPEG 640x480. Nice.
EDIT : from comments below I see most people expect more. For once I'm on the satisfied side
What .. it too can't play 640x480 flawlessly ? I saw some benchmarks which played such videos at 200%.

Did you read his comment???? where does it say it cant play 640x480
A sample recording would be nice
Smooth playback is 24 fps and beyond. if it's between 20-24, it sucks.
It's the recording rate in 640x480 not the playback speed.
It will almost always keep the 23.99 frames per second while recording
So I meant to say, it's a great video recorder.
I think the title of this thread is a little bit naive!
C'mon 640 x 480 has been on most high end phones now since 2006!
We now have alot of phones with 640 x 480, a fair few with 720 x 480 (D1?) and one or two with 720p recording.
The hardware in this phone is capable of 720p as is that of the Palm Pre, Iphone 3GS and probably others too.
So, in summary - I dont see 640 x 480 as amazingly good at all!
On the topic, do any devs think it would be possible to up the recording to it's 720p capabilities?
See above. I accidently posted twice.

Qualcomm advertises Snapdragon (rather over-optimistically in my opinion) as being capable of 720p video playback - where do they say it's capable of 720p capture?
My bad !
I did not notice he talks about RECORDING, I thought he talks about playback.

So video quality is "surprisingly mediocre", then. Is there any non-HTC smartphone in the world that can't manage at least 30fps at VGA resolution? The Samsung i8910HD can almost manage 24fps at a resolution of 1280x720. If the HD2 could better that, then maybe you could describe it as "amazingly good".
The Snapdragon probably should be able to record in 720P from a hardware point of view. My currrent phone, the i8910, records in 720P at around 22-24fps, and its only packing a 600mhz Cortex 8 CPU.
So i went to the registry and messed with some values a bit. I set the bitrate much higher than the default. It would still capture video @ about 25 fps. Can't really tell the difference in quality, but the filesize has increased by a 100%. I'll try to see if there are more reg settings to mess around.

There's a lot more to it than CPU power, I think - it's a bandwidth issue rather than MIPS. I wouldn't be surprised if Windows Mobile imposes some limitations too.
Is there a custom ROM or even a simple app possible that can capture 720P video at LEAST 25fps for the Evo? I have yet to be able to capture anything better than 22fps. It's unacceptable. Also the audio quality is TERRIBLE. 8Khz? Seriously HTC?

HTC Phones are good but the camera is very poor. If it was recording at 25fps it would still suck... Droid X does 720p recording very well like a mini camcorder. I have HTC Desire..
I managed to get around 30fps..
Audio still poor though
But here's how you do, go to Camera(not video, photo!), change ISO -> 800 (not Auto), then -> Video recording, and it should be more stabile and higher fps.
Regards.
I'm sorry for my English, I ask you a question.
Many pda like Samsung and the iPhone record video with a quality incredible.
We all know that our HD2 hasn't a powerful camera, has few fps etc.. I therefore believe it is logical to work to increase the fps even when using a resolution of 800 * 480.
If you could record in 720p, it would be nice, but if camera had a lot of fps.
What do you think? and is it possible can increase the fps while recording a video?
thks!
ORiginal desire got the ability to record 720p videos . Even iPhone 3gs which was able to record vga video was able to record in 720p after a work around.will it be possible on desire HD to record full hd 1080p videos with any kind of work around

I'm not a techie but 720p usually means 1280 by 720 pixels where 1080p means 1920 by 1080 pixels. It's quite a jump between those values and even with a workaround that quality could be poop
the sensor won't be better with any change
It will just use more space from the sdcard
The sensor is capable of recording 1080p, but the processor is not capable of encoding in full hd. So no - it's not possible.

i agree, the sensor is the same size so the image will just be stretched and more space used for the same image quality

Nope, if the processor was capable of encoding 1080p, the video won't be just an upsampled version of the 720p video. It would be a true 1080. It's not the sensor alone that's responsible for the video quality - there are the lenses and the hardware encoding. And these (especialy the lenses) have the negative impact on our video recording IMO.
If not full HD then least some workaround to improve the current state. Audio really suck and video I dark most of the times. Really disappointed with the video quality on desire HD

Htc have always had ****ty cameras. If you wanted a camera phone the dhd isn't the best option.

Someone Swyped my idea.
to be able to record in 1080p would be great enhance but I bet changing from stock sd card is required it seems. class to won't do good with 1080p recording. correct me if I'm wrong
I wouldn't have thought a Class 2 card would anywhere near fast enough for full HD.
would you really notice the difference from 720p to 1080p if shot through the same lens?

Not with these lenses
the lens is capable enough to record 1080p,its the processor issue,because the new galaxy s2 has 8mpixel camera aswell and is capable of recording in full hd 1080p,so i was wondering,if i overclock my cpu to 1.2ghz,which i already done,will there be a solution?

Galaxy S2 has a dual core CPU.
We would need that, if we ever manage to capture in 1080p it would just be a slideshow because the CPU cant keep up.
A bit late to this party, the last post was about six months old.

After the 3.1 update I heard that flash video performance increased alot, I don't have a xoom, but was wondering how smooth itnwouldnplsy this clip

How smooth is it compared with the 480p ?
Thanks

I was able to get 720p going very smooth but 1080 not so smooth.
Ok thanks

Even on my laptop the 1080p video is intermittent. Audio is OK. 720p looks normal.
One point re Xoom is that the Xoom is basically 720p.

You are correct, Motorola does spec that it will play back 1080p, not 1080i which is one of the two broadcast standards in the US. The other standard being 720p.
MEDIA FORMATS Android core media formats
VIDEO RECORDING RESOLUTION (MAX) 720p HD (1280 x 720)
VIDEO RECORDING FRAME RATE 30 fps
VIDEO PLAYBACK RESOLUTION (MAX) 1080p HD (1920 x 1080)
VIDEO PLAYBACK FRAME RATE 30 fps
LOUDSPEAKER Stereo
The screen resolution on the Xoom is WXGA (1280 x 800) so the Xoom screen cannot display 1920 x 1080 directly without filtering.
