[Q] Video quality and Facebook HELP! - Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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?

Facebook probably compresses the video

Youtube video quality...

I have the settings to high quality on mobile but for some reason none of the videos I play are crisp. I tried the app the browser tried searching hd videos but everything seems to be pixelated to some extent? Anyone else having the same issues?

I thought i had that issue at first too. But i switched to Wifi and it came in clear. I dont know why, but 3g never gets videos clear for me. I had this issue on the SIII as well.
Videos play on "High Quality" over 3G. When on WiFi and I belive 4G also, video play in "HD". That is why it looks better over WiFi. There is a YouTube app floating around that has a setting that will allow you to watch videos in HD over 3G. However, 3G doesnt tend to have good enough speeds for solid playback in HD.

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

[CAMERA] Slow Motion [Q]

I managed to get some hands experience on the note 3 at work the other day but I forgot to check if slow motion play back was available. Has anyone heard of this is a feature? Or will an app or rom have to enable it?
Ps. The 2k stream via HDMI was really smooth as crystal.

This also interests me. Having 120 fps at 720p means good opportunity for slow motion videos - like on the iPhone 5s.
Is there a good video editor app in Play store that can make multi parts slow motions?

If it does, I hope it's got a better resolution than what my Note 2 has for slow mo, great featur but, looks crap on the big screen IMO.

Yeah. It's 720p at 120 fps.
I with the Note 3 could do 250 FPS at 720p. Since the Note 2 does 250fps at some low res. I guess we'll need more hp.
Thanks for the input, I'm just confused to why this wasn't mentioned or any camera features from the outset tbh. I guess the pessimist in me reckons there won't be any slow motion by default.
I would love to be proved wrong however.

A video recorded at 120 fps that's played back at 30 fps is in slow motion.

The same problem
Heres a question.
Can you toggle 720 video in 120fps to be on all the time by default?
Heres my reasoning for this.
Something is going on, its ALWAYS good to be able to go back later on and play it back in slow-motion.
an accident about to happen, someone about to step on a Bananna peel, etc..
if you need to access the video camera very quickly, it would stink to have to navigate to turn on 120fps
and miss that important shot.
How do you enable the 120 fps feature?

- Load up the camera
- Cog icon top left will expand the list of options
- Icon of a videocamera (3rd from right)
- Slow motion
- Another videocamera icon appears with something like 1/4, 1/8 in the corner
- Tap and choose what you want, i prefer 1/4 as it records at 120fps and plays back at 30. The 1/8 still records at 120 but plays back at 15 i think
Thanks

[Q] Video recorded upside down. How to rotate?

I have G2 and I have recorded video which is very impotent for me (My sons birthday). when I transferred the video to PC I notices that its upside down. How can I rotate it without losing quality? I must fix this video file.
Try to use different video player which can understand the orientation hint. Or find a simple video editor, this issue is very easy and basic to fix, won't lose quality.

I think you will have copy it off the phone and use a computer app top do this. I'd Google for something free

I have both the galaxy s5 and the iPhone 5s. I would say the S5 has the edge on everything camera wise. I cant comment on the G3!
seems fine for me

anyone KNOW HOW TO SHARE SLOW MOTION VIDEO?
You cannot share cause is 120fps video, so is not playable on all devices.. If shared it will look like almost a normal video.. You can upload to a PC n edit the video (yes, this is silly) then share..
I made a slowmo video last week while shooting an can with an air gun.. Video was looking scrap, and was a very very sunny day here in brazil, so no lacking of luminosity..
