Video Camera Focus Issue?

When I start off by recording an object that is close the camera obvisouly focus's correctly before recording starts, but if you record a far away object whilst still recording the camera doesnt auto focus as you thought it should. It only seems to focus just before recording starts.
I've upgraded my firmware to 2.73.405.5 from htc website and can't remember if this happend to the previous firmware, can anybody confirm?
Thanks

[Q] Continuous autofocus in video camera

Is there any way to turn off continuous autofocus in video mode? It makes still video pretty much unusable when it's constantly refocusing every 5-10 seconds. It's really distracting when watching the video back.
Has anyone else noticed this?
Does this not bother anyone else?
I use the S4 for filming on a tripod, and I basically can't use any of the footage because of the continuous autofocusing.
I recently tried lgCamera, it seems to have the focus options I need, but isn't really compatible with the S4 yet. The most it will capture is 15 FPS.
Suggestions?

Nexus 4 video recording problems

My nexus 4 has started to develop some issues. The most annoying one is the frequent failure of the camera to record video. I press red record button which registers the touch but no recording starts. It will work for a while after a reboot but always happens again.
When i try to use an alternative camera app to record video i get a message saying "oops video recording is not currently working on your device" so its not just the camera app playing up.
Does anyone know what could be causing this or how to fix it. Running stock and unrooted.
Edit: so playing about with this a bit more and ive discovered it only happens after i try to watch a video from the gallery. So i boot up my phone, record a video and its works ok. I can record videos fine. However if i go into the gallery and try to watch one of the videos playback fails. If i then go back to the camera and try and record a new video i get the issue as described above. BUT if i do the same thing but view the video outside of gallery (i used mx player) the video plays fine and the camera recording continues to work.
So it seems its an issue with gallery playback of the video. I have forced stopped the gallery, cleared data and cache but that didn't help.

unresponsive camera after recording video

Hi guys. Today I wad recording some videos in my g2 and I noticed that when I pressed stop button, the recording button became gray and I couldn't use the camera for a while, it was not uses to do this before. I rebooted and the same happened after a video. So what could be this problem? I am full stock jelly bean 4.2.2. I think was the video being written to storage but this never happened before and I have more than 4gb free. And everytime I record in 1080p and 60fps. My last video was 578mb.

Video recording doesn't work after RessurrectionRemix

Hello guys.
I have a Note 3 and installed RR-N-v5.8.3-20170526-hlte-Unofficial.zip a few days ago.
Yesterday I tried to record a video, but it doesn't work. Taking pics works fine. Using built-in camera software, it makes 2 sounds and shows recording time as if it was working, but after recording there was no video on DCIM/Camera or any of its subfolders. As I said, taking pics works fine and they are saved there.
I tried a few recording apps and none worked, but neither of them showed UI sign of recording, different from built-in software. They start recording, the 2 sounds happen, and they show as if I had stopped recording. Open Camera is the only one to show a clue: same sound, same start-stop, and a message. "Unknown error, video halted".
Since the same issue happened to 4 or 5 apps, I believe it's the phone. My Note 3 has almost 4 years and I never saw that issue. I don't use to record video often at all, but the few times I did it worked fine. Previous OS was vanilla Samsung 4.2.2.
Any idea please?
Hello
In cm12.1 it only works to record video in rr n you have to resort to other apps like cameringo in that app you can record video greetings
