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

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!

hello
today i successfully flashed JB 4.1.2 on my SGSA from gingerbread 2.3.6, in hopes it will solve the lack of Continuous auto-focus while recording
video, and NO! it Didn't!!
Anyone else having this?? what i mean is the Video doesn't do any autofocus while recording, and from what i've seen this needs the camera firmware to be updated, so what am i missing then?
btw the phone is not rooted

well i am pretty sure it's the Camera Firmware, this guy here simply installed the camera firmware update, and thus activated the autofocus,

you mean lgcamera allows the video to autofocus?
EDIT: Good program mate, with Autofocus, yet the light exposure is messed up =(, i will send the phone to the service center, and see what they'll do
Use lgCamera, It have the click to focus and auto-focus when you are recording a videl. Sorry for my English, I'm Italian.

I found a good app or this problem.Its PerfectShot from market (pro version is also available).It has touch focus available while recording and it don't have problems of brightness found in lgcamera.
Camera JB+
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.moblynx.camerajbplus
After installing JB, video recording of LG Camera started producing videos with distorted images because of over compressing even with full HD.
I've recently found this application which is an advanced version of Google JB Stock Camera application and it works without any problems with 4X and produces better quality videos (the file size is doubled but the videos look much better.)
I recommend this application to every 4X user.

LG Camera is better but has a serious flaw in video recording. It uses a low video bitrate so videos look distorted.
This application uses a higher bitrate and recorded videos look much better than LG Camera. The cost of this is doubled file size.

I've been using LG camera pro for some time now and it works very well. No more focus issues for me at least.
It's missing a few functions like panorama shots and HDR, though filming is fine (i can set up bitrate to 100Mbits?).
If there's enough light. But I've got to say, this camera is much worse compared to One X. Esspecially in low light. Unless i'm missing something in settings, i always get grainy footage, while x ones is smooth and clear.

Thanks. I never fail to be amazed by how many people on here have bought devices worth hundreds of dollars, yet constantly refuse to spend a couple of dollars on an application to make it work better.
It's like buying a $2000 PC and refusing to purchase any software to run on it, or buying a $50k car and refusing to buy petrol.
I have tested this app in zaiben rom and it works. Videos are brighter and better in temrs of quality. The only bad thing is that the files are .3gp, like videos recorded in old phones.

Here are two samples I recorded with LG Stock Camera and Camera JB+.

Please view them on your PC to see the difference. Pay attention to the lower half of the picture.
I have had problems with 3rd party camera apps in CM10.1 such as ProCapture or Camera 360. Lots of nice options, but when taking a flash picture, it focuses, then takes several seconds then takes a shot almost by surprise. Can you confirm this app does not suffer from this problem?

3gp is just a container like mkv. The two applications both use the same h264 codec for video.

The color rendition is also completely different. Do you have a sample with a more varied background so one can compare other colors and objects?

It captures photos with flash instantly on stock LG ROM and it has the cleanest user interface and options when compared to the applications you've listed.
Since the application does not have a trial version, you can use Google search to find the apk to try on CM 10.1.

Yes, i know. The problem is that some media players don't recognize 3gp container

Rename it to MKV or AVI.

You can't just rename one extension into another - even though those extensions are different in many ways. My opinion would be to use another camera which saves to avi or mkv files
I made more tests with flash and noticed that it lags when you touch the picture to change the auto focus point and then click the capture button.
It takes pictures instantly with flash if you just click the capture button without changing the focus point.
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..
Hi
I have the problem that on EVERY KitKat ROM the videos of the youtube app looks pixelated,
im already on the highest quality, and on a Stock rom (4.1.2) its fine, not so sure about other jellybeans (4.2+).
Can someone help me?
Thanks

On stock rom is YouTube pixelated too. The latest YouTube version thinks our phone is a low-end device. Download an older version of YouTube app.
on stock rom for me its not pixelated
It is a known issue on custom ROMs for our phone.
Use alternate YT players, like "Viral" for ex. With them, you can play HD videos.
+1 for Viral, my go to Youtube app, it even has a floating player and interface modifications.. its just better than the stock Youtube app and the best one yet for me

Well actually it's not.
On stock rom you don't have pixelation on youtube videos, you just have a resolution limitation of 360 pixels (as on custom rom, it's a youtube app limit) but if you try to play the same video in CM10.2 or CM11 you'll have nasty jagged edges due to the fact that hw video acceleration is broken and you have no antialiasing.
On CM10.1 it works perfectly.
So using Viral it's some sort of work around because you have to stream a much heavier 720pixel video in order to avoid that pixelation problem that is still there but you can't notice it because of the higher resolution on a small screen.
That's the reason why I'm still on CM10.1, it's the only rom that works fine with video.
If someone is aware of any other rom higher than CM10.1 (android 4.2.2) that has video working properly please let me know.
Viral is pixelated too for me (tried on stock)
Other videos are fine, its just viral abd YouTube
EDIT: Had to disable Hardware Acceleration in Viral
have this prob on CM11(4.4.4) , is there any fix or if i download an older version of youtube or it still happens?

Like I said, try Viral (free lite version on Play Store, can get pro one way or the other) or some other alternate YT player.
It must work, I watched 720p with ease both on CM11 earlier and on CM 10.2 now.
I don't think that anything has been broken in the meantime.
