About 20 seconds into recording a video the screen will look like its frozen. Then if I back out half the camera app and half the Home screen is showing..
It happened on stock rom and now also on Kumars rom.
It also seems to freeze every now and again watching youtube videos, but the video recording like everytime...
Any ideas?
Hi all. I have the Epic and I recently noticed that on my video recordings, often times there will be no audio recorded. Sometimes it will pick up a few seconds after video recording starts, other times it will be off altogether. No bluetooth or headphones plugged in and the audio recording box is checked.
Send the phone to Samsung and they said this:
NO TROUBLE FOUND
SW,PRL,OTSL RESET
Now I'm going to get it back tomorrow and I'm hoping it's fixed, but based on that text, I don't think it is. I called and they said it's fixed but it's just real irritating. I don't want to have to send the phone back to Samsung AGAIN and be without a phone for another week.
Anybody have any similar issues?
When I record video in hd, there are multiple problems. First it fails most of the time after a few seconds, sometimes it works. 2nd, it records volume at a low level: If what I'm recording isn't loud, its hard to hear on the video.

so is that a problem with the phone or that's just how it is?
I've had the same issue where the sound gets delayed maybe 3 seconds into video but once it picks up its great.

i agree, the sound is wonderful, i just don't want to record a video and then realize that the sound never picked up!
Couple questions for you:
What ROM?
What recording resolution?
I'm on di18 stock and default res of 720x480 and in ~10 videos I've had no problem with sound being captured on them.

This has been on the stock rom loaded into the Epic and a 720p resolution. I'm hoping Sammy fixed the issue, get the phone back today. Maybe it could be related to the sd card, but I'm using the one that came from Samsung.
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?
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.
Anyone here with instagram video feature updated. Does it lag when you push the record button? 3 seconds to start recording? Or is it just my S4 that is doing this.
Thanks
There's a slight delay when I record using snapchat. Not 3 seconds buts maybe in between 1-2. Instagram does the same.

Snapchat lags because it defaults to still mode and when you hold it down, it has to switch to video capture mode. I've noticed a significant lag with Instagram's video capture as well...and not just for the first recorded segment. It seems to take a few seconds to get it started each time I continue recording to the same video. Vine doesn't have that delay at ALL (except for the initial way-too-long loading). It's definitely an Instagram problem, and I'm sure they'll fix it with further updates. Hopefully they fix the audio clipping issue, that one I find more annoying.
