Try out Friendcaster instead of Facebook

Yes I had the same problem with the Galaxy S4! I also posted this topic on this forum and was brushed off. Basically I felt that pictures that were taken on the phone looked amazing and high def on the phone itself but once I uploaded them to Facebook they seemed very hazy and blurry! I even tried emailing the pictures and uploading them to Facebook through my computer and iPhone and they still came out the same way. I enable hq upload on the computer and still the pictures were low quality! I have up and don't know what to do because pictures taken on older model phones with less megapixels look much better when uploaded to Facebook. The only thing I can think of is that the megapixels are to high for Facebook and when the quality gets reduced for Facebook purposes it gets blurry. If this is the case maybe HtC one made the right move by only putting a 4 ultra pixel camera on their phone.

Use an app called haxsync it works great

Better Camera App in the Future

Do you guys think there will be a better Camera app available for the Nexus 7 that will fix any color issues or distortions and just make those 1.2 MP as perfect as possible? I'm not trying to get beautiful, gorgeous pictures (or videos) out of this thing, I just want a few photos and vids here and there like any other person would.
So do you think a better Camera app will eventually be available or is the current one as good as its gonna get? Thanks in advance.
Depends on what you call 'better'. Vignette is available in the Play Store and is now Nexus 7 compatible.

Yes! Its got slow motion video :)

Just incase anyone was wondering it has a great slow motion video feature allowing you to film in 1/2 1/4 or 1/8 speed (I believe its actually recording in high speed and playing back in slow speed) but its smooth and decent quality and great fun to play with. It also has a fast motion setting.
Im sure you probably knew already but I just found the settings and was chuffed and thought id share it with ya.

You want to hear slow motion sound?
I'm gonna post a video later on of my windshield flexing in slow mo!
I've yet to play with the video camera. That'll change as of right now. Thanks for posting this!
This thing just keeps getting better every time I pick it up.

Discussing slowmotionvideo is nothing if there are no videos to see. come on now guys, shoot some examples and post them here.

The resolution for Slo-Mo and Fast mode is limited only to 720x480 resolution!

I can only imagine how that will look in slow motion, it already looks crazy on video. What equipment are you going to use? Maybe some 15" zv3 sundowns?

I guess it's understandable that the Slo-Mo is at a lower resolution (gotta sample more per second) but I don't understand the fast-mo being lower resolution... just take 1080p 30fps and then play it back at 30 fps while dropping every other frame...
I'll post mine when I'm allowed (after 5 more posts, I think)
Stay tuned.

I made an example of 1/8 speed slow-mo. Up for watching on Dropbox.
Nothing exciting - just one of the cats playing - found this "feature" on the weekend

I'm confused What has slow mo?

New HDR Video.

I noticed many people (including myself) trying to figure out HDR video in the new MEA base. This thread is for that discussion. Hopefully someone will be able to give a clear answer on it and it will help everyone. So what magic must be done to enable HDR video? Is it on by default or is there some hidden setting?

thus far havent been able to do it with stock or ktoonsez kernels. how it works is pretty simple and should work ok, but should show some artifacting with heavy jello. basically it underexposes and overexposes every other scan line (not sure if it oversamples, averages, and combines from higher than 1080P res or just does so at regular 1080P resolution (most likely) in which case best quality would be found at 720P settings, as this would allow full blending.
What about faux123s new kernel? Interesting that we can't do it on the stock kernel.

i havent seen anyone find it yet; im interested to compare quality of 720P vs 1080P and see if my theory on transsampled scan lines is correct; its a dirty way to do it, but would work decently. HDR photo mode should work the same but it doesnt; instead any movement translates to blur (eg leaves, bugs, cars, etc).
Are you people stupid or just lazy? How bout going into the camera app hitting mode then scroll to HDR then hit the video button.

That only works for photo mode, which works totally different from video mode. i work in television and film; i took several sample clips in controlled lighting environments; photo mode does not alter video mode, in this update or 4.2.2 original, AOSP/CM, TW UCUAMDB/UCUAMDL or any kernels thus far.
watch who you call lazy and stupid; might come off a bit rude, to say the least.
Well according to this HDR video is included and there is only 1 HDR setting in the camera so unless there is another setting buried within the camera... That's it

Camera slow mo

Ok so I was using the camera yesterday and decided to test the slow motion feature which looks awesome. The only thing wrong was that there was no sound during playback. Can anyone confirm this or test it?
Cheers

Hi !
Before being a gardener, I was a cameraman and as far I remember, there was no sound in slow-mo shoots. In my experience, even in an video editoring software (sorry, maybe I speak English with my french thoughts), when you change a regular motion into a slow one the sound disappears because of the time expansion - then you can put it back and stretch it, etc.
Sure, did another one just now, simple ball falling! Quality isn't that great but still no sound

Hey man, thanks for the input! The reason I asked is because my lil bro has an icrap and he was showing off his slow motion so I decided to fiddle with the note to see what it could do. The end result is a better video shot but no audio. Iphone had a quicker framerate, so not as slow as the gn3 but it also had audio.

Tell your brother that's not "professional" to have both audio and video shooted in slow-mo at the same time !:laugh:
Haha, I know! Still looks cool tho. Need people to have a look and see of its available to have both together! Plus everything sounds so much funnier in slow motion!
Sent from my SM-N9005 using xda app-developers app
I tried and I get no sound on slow motion videos. So it will make your brother and his ''phone'' treat you as a joke, you and your ennemy's device... for a looooong time !
Like we say in France : Courage !

I'm sure you "can" hack it to allow sound. Why would you want sound in slow mo though? It is choppy since its recorded in real time then slowed.
No Sound!?

[Q] Video quality and Facebook HELP!

When I record in "Smooth Motion" mode, the payback on my phone looks sick. However, if I load that same video to FB, it looks like hell. Very pixelated and low quality. Why does this happen?
