720p recording

Hi,
i read with Froyo it is possible to record with 720p.
I tried but the highest i can choose from is "High (30 min)" which results in 720x480 which is not 1280x720
Is it true that i can record 720p with the Nexus One and Froyo.
If so, how do i?
Best

You read wrong.
It was possible to record 720p before Froyo came, with CM5.0.8.
Froyo broke the codec support, and charansingh_online is rebuilding it again. It'll probably take some time.

cm = cyagen mod?
means you have to root your phone (loose your warranty) to have 720p?

Yes and yes.

Actually it's yes and no, since you don't have to unlock the bootloader to be able to run custom roms now.

Its kinda over rated bro. It looks halfway decent but a little choppy.

Its like all N1 recordings, if you move to much the quality sucks.
But i think its okay, rated by videos on youtube.

Go to the Nexus One Developer's Forum, it's one of the stickies.

I think, hope, want to believe that 720P will be fixed for CM6-Final. I know @cyanogen and @charansingh have been working on it lately.

Downgrade from CM9 and a Camera question

Hi.
At the moment I am using the Nova HD Plus ROM, which is a great ICS Kang, but I sadly cannot record a thing with it. Tomorrow I am going to a Sports event I would like to take some videos.
Is there something I should be aware when downgrading?
Also which ROM provides great quality videos. I used to use temasek`s KANG ROM and since he is back, I might use his ROMs again, but are there any ROMs with better video quality? Also, which kernel to use with?
Thanks in advance!

Dont think that you should worry about when changing rom. Except that you have to do a full wipe!
Go for Tamaseks KANG and Etana Kernel. Best performance and stability.

Due to the lack of media acceleration, video recording doesn't work yet on CM9. We just have to be patient.

Hi!
If you would rather not risk a downgrade you can download an app to record in standard definition. I don't recall the name of it though, but I'm sure you'll find it around here if you search for it.
And I think a full wipe is enough, not sure if a "backtoExt3" is necessary though.
EDIT: As you can see in this thread

the name of the app is Video Illusion

Video recording problem (Zeus v6.36)

Hello forum,
In all the Zeus Roms I've tested, there is a recurring problem and it's related to the video capture. The recording breaks/stops from time to time, and I was wondering if I'm the only one with this problem.
I've recorded a video example, please check @ 0:06. It freezes the image for almost 2 seconds
Please let me know if you have a similar problem, or what ROM you use to record flawless videos.
Thank you!

same here, even you get lags, i hade the same issue, it' from the phone it self.. not the rom

Actually, I think I had a better video recording experience in previous versions or different ROMs, including the stock one.
Anyone manages to successfully record videos? Please tell me what ROM do you use.

I have the same problem and as far as i know there is no solution to it. I have workaround however: I use another application for video recording - CameraPro and the downside is that I record in TV quality 720 x 480, but the video does not shutter anymore. I know is not the best solution, but at least I get usable videos.
PS: I use Zeus (for 4 months now) on version 6.37 now.

So if the problem is in the software, there must be some ROM out there that gets around this problem. I'll try some more when I have the time.
Thank you!

Better Camera mod / hack

Hello!
I was doing some video recording on my 4x, but I noticed that videos hove avarage only 22fps..
Is there any way to get better fps on our lg 4x?
I am on CM10.2, cm original kernel, I have tried few recommended apps for recording, but framerate is almost always 22fps.
Any ideas for camera app, kernel?
Thanks!

either go back to stock, or, i'm not sure if it works properly - try iodak's ported stock camera app; it should record at higher fps.

Ok, thanks, will try and report back...

Have tried suggested camera an it does record 1080p at approx. 30fps (mostly 27fps)..
But at very low birthrate (round 9000), so the video is not very high quality..
As soon I opened it I also noticed annoying focus bug..
So - is there any app / mod / hack, that has better quality and record at least 24fps? That works on CM 4.2
As far as I tested camera apps, best results are with snap camera (but only 22fps.. ) Maybe lg camera too..

First of all, Questions belong into the Q&A section (---> moved)
Now, to your Q, you can't get a higher framerate, as it is capped @30fps.
But I think i know how to "uncap" it, let me take a look at it tomorrow

amazing , thats great, that would be a nice info. though me im fine with fps. the quality is what bothers me. it would be nice if it could get a higher definition too. faces must be close or they look "ugly"
edit: if we choose a latte fx its easier to notice the bad quality and what i mean.

Yeah, I agree, it would be great to have more fps and better bitrate..
I got 17mps on snap camera.. Could we get it on camera itself?

No, it can't be included into a camera app, as it is inside the system, and not inside an app

So it is possible to include/hack this into kernel or what?
Still haven`t found app, that would record at 30fps and had better bitrate..

Vibe based ROMs are best for cam.
I have a friend with great photography skills. He said cam of stock is best.
