For whatever reason when I playback a slow motion video recorded in 120 FPS by my Nexus 6P, the normal parts of the video that aren't slowed down, are sped up and have a chipmunk sound to them. I'm not sure what causes that. Has anyone run into the same issue?
I have the same issue and it is driving me nuts! Doesn't happen in 240 playback. And seems to be an issue with Google photos.
I can slow it down with MX player, but the audio is still too slow.
Looks like your phone has a chipmunk in it. I would give a call to Google to process an RMA.
I kid. Anyway, I just test it at 120fps and the sound is fine at normal speed; it slows down when in slow motion.

@badboy47 what version of Google photos are you on, are you playing it through photos?

This article says to power off, then on your phone. That seems to have temporarily fixed the issue for me. The issue is with the camera app I am pretty sure because I tried other players and none could change the speed to normal.

Soon after I got my Evo I made a video recording on my way into my apartment. One of my neighbors cats was being very frisky in the window, it cracked me up so I made a recording. I think it may have been my first video recording.
I had it set to 640x480, mpeg4. This video is 29~30FPS and is as smooth as can be. There is lots of motion in the video and no flicker or choppiness whatsoever. After watching this video I was very pleased with the video performance.
I have not been able to make another video that comes in at much higher than ~10fps since then.
I did install Fresh 0.2. I've been figuring it must be a bug in that, but I've tried since tried Bugless Beast, Superersonic, rolled back to stock and God knows how many other roms trying to get this smooth video back. I can't get decent fps at ANY resolution.
I don't even particularly care for video functionality, but after seeing that this phone CAN do very impressively smooth video I was eager to use it for that. Needless to say I can't figure out how I did it or what I did to alter the performance.
What gives?
.-*boop*-.
I recorded a 720 video and it came out at 12 FPS!!! yikes.. not sure if thats normal or not?
I'm running Fresh 0.3, made a 10 minute 720P video of my dogs and it was able to capture at 24fps. My videos have been very good no matter which ROM I'm using.

Lighting can make a HUGE difference. In low light the Nexus (and probably Evo & other HTC Android's) have their lowest framerate set at 8fps in the kernel. Try shooting another video in the same location & conditions and see if you get similar speeds.

This probably explains my 12 fps as it was an indoor movie.
Thanks for the info.
So I've noticed that Hulu lags when streaming on high quality on this phone which never happened on my previous Note 2. The audio is fine but the video is sort of choppy. When I change it to medium quality it streams just fine but the picture quality is degraded. On my other apps video and audio quality are excellent. Just curious if anyone else has noticed this and if so have you found a fix for it?

Just tested this and the framerate does drop on the high setting. You need to report this to Hulu. They'll need to fix this.
Netflix is streaming just fine, even using 2 devices to watch content at the same time.

Thanks, That was the word I was looking for "framerate". I just emailed them hopefully they will be able to resolve this problem soon.

Thanks for the heads up... Wouldn't be surprised if this is fixed by their next update.
I've just videoe my TV screen (with ceiling light above me too)
The stock camera app recording was fuzzy around the edge (grainy) and the TV picture wasn't that clear at all (was half zoomed in)
So then I used the LG camera app. Turned FPS to 60 and rate to 10mbit... EPIC!
Yes it uses more space, but the quality is amazing!
Anybody wanting to test video capability, download LG camera app, set FPS to 60 and check it out! (it doesn't look,great until you start recording)
Am just uploading a sample,video which is on highest settings in LG camera app. It's a whopping 250mb for just under a minute!!

yeah i just checked and installed it, its the middle of the night here so il test properly tomorrow, i remember using this app a long time ago when i had my htc sensation.
Here's the sample
Not bad for an indoor false light video of a TV! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bWq1CVkuwNU&feature=youtube_gdata_player

what video settings did you use, what bitrate did you use. the samples good for the condition, i think we need to test this in normal daylight to see what it can really do. I took a video 32 seconds and it was 80mb

Its in the play store, just search its called LG Camera.
If this is the app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=rubberbigpepper.lgCamera&hl=en
then 60fps not supported, I just checked it out, 1 file on 30fps and 17mbit, the other file at 60fps and at 60mbit or whatever it was. Both files are at 29fps, so until sony adds a [email protected], I don't think it will be supported.

That is something else, fps means frames per second and i have just checked on my pc and the videos max out at 30.1fps.
Well in this case Hz and fps actually are the same, as long as we are talking about the captured framerate and not the outputted one, which can very well differ.
Still you're right! MX Player is detecting bull****, Media Info on my PC does show 29,716 fps.
Would have liked it to by different though, 60fps would have been great for some slowmo action

nah im sorry Hz and fps are 2 completly different things.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hertz
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frame_rate
MX player indicated correctly, it just didnt show you fps
Hz describes a frequency and just means "per second" and normally when I use it to describe framerates people do understand what I mean, even if fps is the better word
If you take a look at my earlier Screenshot you will see that MX Player never claimed it to be Hz, it just says "Bildfrequenz", which means framerate, and does not use any unit.
you're right, the quality seems much better with lgCamera. :good:
EDIT: also took some pictures but the quality of them does not seem to be improved.
Well either way, whether it improves FPS or not (which I didn't check it.actually did), it does improve the video massively. That video was captured using the highest bitrate, which is what defines the quality of the video
video. You don't have to use maximum setting all the time, but it truly is much better than the stock app.
Since I cant post videos at the moment please do me a favor and try this out and see for yourself.
Does the slow motion resolution look a lot less than 720p? I recorded a regular video in 720p as well just to compare and it looks a lot better than in slo-mo mode
Also, when viewing a recording it'll start at normal speed like usual, I then select the part of the video I want slowed down which works great but then when the video goes back to normal speed the sounds are way off, for example I was juggling a soccer ball and while the ball was in the air you'd hear the kicking sounds. hoping there's a fix for this.
Has anyone else noticed this? While watching a 1440p video on youtube, after a minute or two, it will start dropping frames like crazy. Sometimes the video will stop entirely (audio still plays). I've noticed this on MKBHD and Linus Tech Tips channels. If I set the quality to 1080p (or anything lower) manually, it plays just fine. It's not a buffering issue, because the audio still plays. It seems like the phone is trying to reduce the cpu and youtube isn't capable of playing 1440p video with the reduced cpu. It never happens at the beginning of a video. I didn't have this problem on my V10, ever.
Can you give links to exact videos? I just tested on this on
https://youtu.be/hddwAIXbKZo
Looked amazing. Ran in 1440 with zero issues.
This was happening to me as well. SD820 variant. On WiFi. A restart seems to have fixed the problem...for now...hopefully.
Exynos will breeze through this. SD fail.

Okay I can see what you're talking about now. I just watch this video. Its default was like 720. I changed it to 1440 and it froze. Sound continues video stops. I minimize the video and closed it then reopened it it stayed 1440 and ran fine.
https://youtu.be/RCgPD2sfbAQ
Not sure what's causing it but I can definitely see the problem. I don't want to have to close and reopen a video to get it to play properly.
These are two of the ones I remember it happening on:

That video may not be long enough... it happens after a minute or two on my phone, and that video is only 1:45 long.
This 1440p issue happens on my LG G4 as well. I'm getting my Exynos S7 Edge on Friday

Just watched both of those on 1440p, no glitches at all. YouTube 1440 vids have been smooth as butter since my restart.

Happens on my V10... there are multiple threads in the V10 forums about the issue.
Are you guy's by any chance using T-Mobile? I know with their Binge On feature, they try to reduce and limit overall quality of any video feed not set up with the Binge On program. YouTube is not set up with it.
I get extremely choppy and dropped frames on 1440p. Also no 60fps option at all something is definitely wrong. My s6 edge was able to play 1440p 60fps with no issues at all.

I'm on T-Mobile, but in my case, it is not related to BingeOn. I have BingeOn disabled, and this was on WiFi. As I said in the original post, it isn't a buffering issue because the audio keeps going. Also, as others have noticed, if you minimize it and come back, the video will go for a little bit and then stop again.

Tested this ^^ and worked fine for me..I don't have any 60fps option though but it seems it plays the 60fps on the highest setting any way, just don't mention it .
Anyone try uninstalling YouTube updates and going back to the version that shipped with the phone? Since it's happening with other phones it could just be an app bug introduced with the latest update.
All videos play perfectly on my Exynos gs7 edge at 1440p

Definitely a Youtube issue as it's happening on too many different devices. I noticed it on my wife s6 edge + but not yet on my s7 edge.
All 1440p fine on exynos
useless reply, but I followed the link for the "2K" video sample (couple minutes long) and that played without issue via the YouTube app.
After that there was a link for a 4K Video Beauty of Nature video (about 31 minutes long) and THAT locked up after a few minutes of playback. (addendum: I'm a sucker for good Nature, but holy crap is that a pretty video.)
AT&T GS7E, all current updates, playing over mobile data. SpeedTest.net reports > 50Mb/s downstream at my location so bandwidth is probably not a factor.
Firefox plays the video without issue it seems, 13 minutes in without issue. Of course I can't be sure it's playing a 1440p stream, but it looks the same to my old eyes. :^(
I've played all Youtube videos linked and have no issues. Tried many thers via the Youtube app a7 1080p and 1440p and found no issues on my Exynos S7E
