Is this likely to happen as the video is the biggest let down with this phone for me the 1080 doesn't look as good as 720 on the iphone 4.

Can someone upload some pictures at 8mp resolution and a video taken at 720p here? Full resolutions please.
I believe my camera is faulty or the quality of this camera on this phone is worse than MyTouch 4G. Also the MT4G was recording videos as .Mp4 format and this one .3Gp . Does anyone know why?
Here are my uploads @ their full resolution.

I am trying to increase video recording resolution of our phone from 640x480 to 720x480.As our phone can decode videos upto WVGA resolution so it should be possible to encode videos of this resolution (I can be wrong).I have achieved to the point of having 720x480 in recording settings.But getting camera call back error on starting recording.So if anyone can tell if recording is hardware limited(processor/camera sensor) or not,it will be very appreciable.
thanks
Proof:-
P.S-I am using DDKQ8 SGS2 camera mod by CCGH thats why interface looks different
No one huh :/ I will ask a few devs i know to look at this thread then
Hey!
The Motorola Defy has 480p as default but they have ported the Defy+ rom to it and it enables 720p!
But it is Armv7!
In short, our camera is capable to shoot 720p as it can take 720x480 photos but it has to take 30 such photos in one second and the hardware doesn't allow it. It has low capability hardware so shooting at 30 FPS and 720x480 can take a lot of load on the hardware and so it might not work at all. Also, you will need additional codecs to record 720p.
So it will be tough to make it work and the video might be laggy..

720p=/=720x480.
Defy is diff. case.Thats armv7 so its reference doesnt help.
What I am asking is 720x480 encoding possible by our processor or not.
2nd problem is aspect ratio-our default ratio is 4:3 and 720x480 is 3:2.So i guess this resolution MAY be related to wide angle lense or something.Its just an assumption.We cant have 720*480 full screen.Black bars will be there.So most probably needs XML resizing in camera app
Question guys - to enable you to slow certain scenes in a video you need to select the slow motion video scene...fair enough.
Should this in turn reduce the quality of the video?
I could be wrong, but before I went to a custom ROM, I am fairly sure the video quality remained the same as normal. Now as soon as I record in slow motion, it reduces the quality.

hello there
yes it will reduce the quality ...
best regards
I noticed that too with mine. Horrible isn't it? You also get reduced quality with 60fps. You get verticals lines. I gave up and stuck to 30fps.

I also have this problem vertical line appear in indoor environment. However, customer service told me this will be fix in next update.
Slow Motion = Low Resolution
I saw that HTC video doing a slow motion video of a man doing fire/flame stunt. Actually I was amazed and got excited that I wanted to try that Slow motion on my own with something else like a sprinkler maybe.
So I found one at a park and as soon as I started shooting the video (slow motion video under video settings) WTH!!!! The resolution dropped to something like 768x432 and its a bite pixellated, not true HD (1080p) which I thought I'd expect just like from the HTC video... Yes you can trim/edit the video that's cool but I was hoping for 1080p HD quality
I hoped HTC would come with an update that can maximize its camera features up to 1080p resolution. oh well..

Well I guess is impossible because the Snapdragon 600 doesn't support the record of 1080p videos at 120fps :\
I'm on stock 4.2.2 and I've recorded this slow motion clip a week ago (don't forget to turn on HD when viewing it). The quality seems fine to me.
Yeah. The quality is awfull. The slow motion video from the the device with the man in the night eith fire from his mouth is years ahead bettrr than the ones we can record... But why HTC ?!

some info on this please?
hello guys. i'm sorry for this little derailing question but it was the only thread i found:
i'm currently digging into slo-mo available in latest phones.
i just saw some HTC ONE samples and i was very disappointed from the low resolution.
i was particularly impressed with the new Iphone 5S 120 FPS real 720P feature. it really looks 720 and not upscaled like the fake 720p NOTE 3 slo-mo. however i cannot use iphone anymore due to the small screen.
so from this thread i gather the faster frame limitation is by the processor itself? (snapdragon 600-800? what's the 720P limit?)
i am willing to wait until an Android phone will have a usable 720 slo-mo..
so what hardware could provide this? as i can see nowdays, the latest android phones cannot do it (not the NOTE 3 or the G2 which doesn't even have slo-mo to begin with).
my choice now are either wait for a phone that will (maybe the next HTC?), or wait till apple make a bigger phone (cannot stand the small screen).
your thoughts on this?
thanks.
I must say I am very impressed with the video quality on the Note 4. The OIS gives video great stability. I have a couple of questions about resolutions/fps and lossless zoom.
1.I heard somewhere that in smooth motion (where it defaults to 1080p) the fps is double that of the note 3 in this mode, ie 120fps. Can anyone confirm this? This would be awesome as unless I'm mistaken we could take 2mp snap shots from the video and these would have an equivalent shutter speed of 1/120 - great for moving objects!
2. Does anyone know how far you can zoom in losslessly in the various resolutions. I've got a feeling it's 1.5x in 1080p but I'm not sure. Would also be interested to know if we can zoom in losslessly at higher resolutions and to what extent. Although shooting in 4k isn't that useful to me, the ability to screenshot 8mp images from any part of the video is a very cool feature.
Hi,everyone!
Currently I am using the NostromoPop rom on my One Mini 2,along with DSLR camera for taking photos and Cinema FV-5 for video recording. Now,I know the phone is limited by its internal capabilities when it comes to the resolution and framerate it can shoot a video at,but I know for a fact that sometimes you can get more from a camera that the developer intended (I have used a Huawei G510 before,horrible phone but with a lot more roms to choose from,and one of them allowed 720p recording,which wasn't possible on any other rom,including the stock one).
What I'm asking : Is there a camera app(perhaps combined with a kernel or tweak of files) to allow 1080p 60fps video recording on the HTC One Mini 2?

Not sure what you asking since HTC One Mini 2 already records at 1080.
Camera
Main Camera: 13MP, BSI sensor, f/2.2, 1080p video recording
Front Camera: 5MP, BSI sensor, 1080p video recording

Ummm...not trying to be mean or anything,but you should learn to read better before voicing an opinion,not just between the lines. What I asked was if it was possible to shoot at 1080p 60fps on the One Mini 2.
Have a nice day!

you right...
it records 1080p at 30fps
and 720p at 60fps
