Got a 2 day long "training" so to speak of that I think I want to record / take notes on and / I would like to use my 8 or 16GB SD card in the G Tablet to take these said notes and the recording(s)....
I am however not familiar with the G Tablet that much as of yet and looking for some personal experience with some good note taking and or audio recording suggestions on apps.
Thanks,
Nathan

Is there a way or tweak to get the camera to record at VGA or WVGA @ 30fps? I have a 14 month old daughter and im constantly taking pics of her for the familly ect and noticed that when recording video the framerate is very laggy or slow motion like. The iphone 3gs records great video quality and the N1 has better specs so id assume higher frame rate on record is possible with the N1 also.
Any thoughts anyone?
Thx Guys!

People trip me out some time with there smart remarks.
If you like carrying around multi devices good for you. I have a stand alone camera that does video record ect but my camera is not ALLWAYS on me.
The same way the Nexus is good for multi media such as mp3 / and watching videos but I dont go buy a PSP or ipod touch for that I use my phone. The point of the high end phones these days is to try to limit carrying multi devices on you at all time.
With all the hacking / ports / tweaks going on just wanted to know if 30fps video record was possible. If you dont know how or dont know what im talking about please do reply with BS. Thanks.

i don't think he was in a bs kinda tone. hard to tell on forums
you'll thank yourself later for using a higher quality camera (dedicated camera) of any kind for videos one day. proud parent here, know whatcha mean about wanting to capture the cool 'new' moments.
now then, as far as recording, i'll bet there are settings you can change for it someday. right now the video quality is pretty darn good. just dumped a couple of videos from mine today. frame rate is quite good, picture clarity good, fps decent.
IF YOU FIND an app or way to up the settings, PLEASE update this thread in your original post.
Yeah, Im not trying to come off negative to anyone. I have a decent standalone camera that can take great pics and video a 10mpiexel cam with ful vga record. With phones tho its so MUCH MUCH MUCH more conveient to beable to snap a picture and have that picture allready able to send as MMS / Email / Up Load to facebook ect...
With the standalone camera I have to take mem card out - load to card reader - copy pics to mem card on my nexus - ect...
Just too many steps. When I had an iphone 3gs for a lmited time I was amazed at the video recording quality from a cell phone.
Now with the nexus with specs better then iphone I dont see why we cant get full 30fps at WVGA or VGA res. With 1ghz CPU and 5mpxl that should be possible right out the box. Seems like its definetly possible and im all for the ability to carry less devices.
it would be great if we could get 30 fps on the nexus. my under powered n97 does 30 fps and its video quality is a step up from my nexus for sure. kinda disappoints me that the video quality isn't just as good as my previous phones.
the moto droid (with lower specs) can do 30fps with some hacking... im sure its some setting in the rom that we can change
http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-hacks/19647-increase-camera-video-quality.html
HTC Desire with similar hardware does 30fps.
I don't know if it's HW or SW limitation, though. Did anyone try to record video on Desire ROM and can verify the actual fps?
Well, the Desire ROM allows for WGVA recording. I do not know about all the fps stuff, but I do know that I am recording in WGVA.
You should be able to by modifying the camera driver in the kernel and the build.prop. I'll look into this when I have the time, but I found the line that should control frame rate. A commit says that not all cameras are stable at 30fps, but how's that ever stopped us?
hi,
why my nexus one doesnt record video in full hd with 30fps like the samsung i9000, the hardaware spec seems to be equal...
http://www.areamobile.de/handyvergleich/hardware/2371-samsung-galaxy-s-32gb/2329-google-nexus-one
And WHY TO HELL IS THE AUDIO ON RECORDED VIDEOS SOOOOOOOO BAD in my nexus? CANT nobody change this?!
Somebody's working on it. . .

720p is not full HD. Also, that phone has 8GB of internal storage, the Nexus One has 512mb. Excluding the option is probably due to several things. One being the camera/video recording application on the Nexus One is the stock android software where phones like the Evo or that Samsung have custom apps for this. Second, HD video takes up tons of space, if you were going to allow HD recording a 4GB mSD card wouldn't be enough for all the videos and music, etc that people put on the phone. That isn't to say 8GB is enough, but it's a jump in the right direction. In the EVO4G's case it comes with 1GB internal and 8GB sd card out of the box.
The potential for the Nexus One to do HD video is there, but no one has figured out how yet, afaik. Pretty sure there is a thread with people working on getting 720p video recording working.

You´re right, 720p isnt full, sorry my mistake... But if you look on youtube to some sample i9000 recorded vids, the image quality is incredible and even the sound is much much better as the one on my n1 :-(!!!
It is completely awesome that we might have 720p. I don't care how much space it takes couldn't we just get bigger cards? Or is the rom the problem?
lol theres no "full" HD.
720P/1080i/1080P are all HD. Dont let made up lingo by TV companies to sell new sets skew your perception of tech.
fyi best available HD set by a country mile until this year were 720p Kuro sets.
As for recording quality. Its not about resolution at that point. Its about bit rate,FPS, and encoding quality.((software wise anyways))
I was under the impressiong the samsuns has a much better gpu component.
i dont see how or why the internal 512mb of memory has anything to do with it, nokia phones like the n97 have been recording 30 fps video directly to the sd card for years. maybe not in 720p, but couldnt we at least get the nexus one current resolution to bump up to 30 fps? and yes i read that thread, seems like lots of promise! cant wait

Samsung's 1GHz processor is not the snapdragon its something 3x better with a GPU 3x better i think its the "humming bird" processor!
There is nothing between CPU or GPU and realtime video encoding on mobile devices. It's done by dedicated hardware.
Nexus has the hardware, it can be made to do it, it was made to do it, and it'll hopefully improve even futher.
All the comparison of CPUs, GPUs etc with bare words and no facts is not going to do any good besides wasting forum pages.
There is a big difference between a question and a complaint. Complaining that the device doesn't do what it wasn't advertised to do is quite... strange, let's say.
Hey guys I recently got a Galaxy Note and might I add that it's an amazing phone. Loving it so far.
But I have one gripe so far, and it possibly can be fixed.
I've been trying to record some videos on my phone, and the sounds is coming out horrible. Curious if there's a microphone adjustment, or something.
Before I bought this phone I was looking at a lot of youtube videos of quality of camera, and its sounds 1000% better then what I record. Not sure if its a distance problem, or settings I have to change.
Here is a quick test video I shot.

wonder if i can ask here
I upgrade to ICS on my Note

Also is there any other Camera App where we can get
Date on Pics we click, cos its not there on Note
Thanks
Hi,
I currently have a Galaxy S2 and am looking to upgrade.
The video camera is a prime reason for the upgrade. Ideally I want something that can record HDR video with optical image stabilisation. Lots of my video is taken handheld in low(ish), high contrast light so I figure both of these features are important. I was hoping to see HDR + OIS in the HTC One M8 announcement, but that didn't happen.
I'd be interested to know a couple of things:
1. How good is the HDR video recording feature? I've struggled to see many reviews/opinions.
2. How good is the OIS?
3. If you were about to upgrade now and had video as a priority, would you think about the HTC One?
I don't know of any other phones that have both HDR video and OIS. My alternative would be to get another camera with OIS - I think on balance this is more important than HDR video. I suppose I could also get HDR video and have either in-phone software stabalisation, or use a PC application to give me the stabalisation.
Cost isn't a massive factor, but I don't see a real "value proposition" I'm thinking of going for a Nexus 5 or LG G2. Although video is important, obviously having a nice fast phone that will last is also appealing, so I've not totally written off the idea a current gen phone I can get in the next month or so.
Any advice on models would be appreciated.
Thanks

I'm far from a video recording expert, but i have used my One for over a year and recorded my first video last week.
It was a stand-up comedian, so it was a hard motive.
Everything around the man on stage was black and with a bright spotlight on the performer.
Started recording with standard setting, and it was hard to find focus when everthing was black or superbright.
Then I switched to HDR recording and got a lot better video with stable focus, with the downside that the black background was more grey. But what the heck, it was better and I can see my motive
What impressed med most was the audio quality of the recordings, really awesome!
Hope this helps you somehow.
First time im posting here, I read a lot before posting about modifications to make the Heat threshold higher before the cores get unplugged, I have never modified a cellphone in my life, so I dont understand anything to much. Currently im having a problem with a Xperia X Performance I bought for 388 new from a amazon sale. Phone works perfect and I can't complain, but there's only one thing, I bought it cause of its video recording and photo capabilities, I haven't had a problem taking picture, but while recording video, no matter if it is at 30fps or 60fps, my recording stutters at random times, and after 2 minutes of recording it gives me a overheating message.
I am guessing the sutter comes from the heating itself that makes the phone go crazy, I read the max temperature on default it holds before going nuts is 47cº, and theres a mod to make it go to 56º or more before going nuts. If this is the problem then could someone help me or explain me how to modify it? Or if the video stutter ir something else I would appreciate some help! I need it to work before the 27th because im leaving a on 3 month trip and need to record a lot, bought 5 SD 64gb 90mb/s cards as they are the best for filming.
Thank you!
From what i've found, seems like rooting and unlocking a xperia X performance device is way harder than a normal device....
