Hello everyone.
I was at a concert yesterday, I'm under ROM MIUI, and the video sound is completely saturated with the default photo application MIUI or GCAM.
I read several posts about this, about a recurring problem of Xiaomi phones. But no concrete solution. Would you have found a workaround? Using an external photo application? module magisk ?

Hi all,
I searched the forum but couldn't find a direct answer, but I've got the impression it's a known issue.
It's about my sisters phone. She can't record videos from within whatsapp and the videolight(flash) doesn't work. I did set Footej as standard camera-app, but Whatsapp doesn't seem to care about that. The phone isn't rooted, might that help or is it just not possible to record videos directly from whatsapp? And is Footej the best camera-app for this phone?
Phone runs Mad-OS 8.1
I used the vpn trick to update to android pie and have magisk installed. Everything works fine, 4g wifi etc. However, I noticed in the stock camera app video recording does not work. I can take pictures both on front and rear cam. When I enabled hyperlapse or slowmo, it can record video but never when those features are not enabled. I tried installing Open Camera from playstore (an opensource camera software) and tried to record video with that app but still nothing. It says "Failed to record video". I recently also enabled camera2api and installed gcam and it can take pictures but not record video. Weird thing is that I tried capturing video on Facebook Messenger and it worked. Video recording works on messenger but not on camera apps?? Did anyone experience this or is it just me?
Try to record video without audio in Open camera. If it works, download Cinema FV camera app and try different audio codec. It happened to me on Oreo, I couldn't find the reason. Once the full ROM has been released by Xiaomi, I reflashed it and video started to work in all apps again. Maybe something went wrong during OTA update, hard to tell. All I know is that it messed up with audio codecs and I had to use another as the default one to be able to record video with sound.

Hmm you're right the problem is with the audio. I tried open camera and disabled audio and it worked. I also followed your suggestion and installed cinema fv camera app and tried all the different codecs but it still doesn't work. It works though if I disable audio completely. Maybe I'll just wait for the new security patch to come.
I just found my old post, this codec in Cinema FV worked for me when I had the recording issue - "AAC-ELD".
Oneplus 6t has bad camera app for photos but for recording movies it's even worse.
What app for recording videos do you use?
I'm looking for an app that will have manual options like: manual focus, 24fps, exposure lock, iso, flat video recording.
I have tried Opencamera but its so bugged. It cant record 24fps on our phone and the interface is uncomfortable.
I found HedgeCam 2. It's a fork of Opencamera. It has much better interface but it also has bugs from Opencamera (no 24fps).
Is there any working app?
I really like the gcam port, also for video recording. It's smoothness during zoom in/out is very good, almost as iphone.
Just got redmi note 7 so getting used to OS etc.
I also installed the gcam from this site.
I notice there is a screen recorder when playing games, I'm not sure if this is part of miui or the XDA gcam. I tried it with game but it didn't record audio, can somebody enlighten me if the recorder is part of miui or gcam and how to enable audio if possible when recording?
Hello Oneplussers
Do you also notice that the sound of video recordings is strongly compressed by the standard camera app but also by gcam.
Do you have any tips or other apps?
