[Q] Video Quality mess when video is saved - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have following problem a few weeks now. When I record a video at 1080, the on screen quality when shooting is normal but when I stop and the video is saved, I get this (attached to this thread).
Mind you that when reducing to 720p the video play is fine.. Any help?
Thanks

Uninstall update for camera. You have installed the update for camera that is not meant for M7 was for M8.

Thank you. Unistalling the update did the trick. I cannot understand though why I received this update in the first place. The phone is not rooted. The update came in as normal.. Why does HTC send an update to M7 owners when this was meant for the M8? weird.

Was a mistake that was corrected very rapidly.

Thank you. I have just received an update 6.09.401.11 (193.01MB). Does this include the camera update as well? thank you

Reject call with text message?

I was thinking of purchasing this phone.
I was wondering...since most android phones (and iPhone now) can do this.
If you are receiving a call, is there an option to either decline call or reject the call and then immediately send a text message?
Can I get a picture of this if possible?
Thank you

Thank you! One more quick question. I heard the camera constantly autofocuses. Is that true? From what I read, the camera actually takes some brilliant pictures...and the image stabilization for both still shots and video is quite good.
Thoughts?
Thanks again

The camera did autofocus all the time but it was fixed in the update that was released yesterday. I like the camera, I think it is pretty good.

So LG released an OTA that fixed constant autofocus?
Nice!
What about the video? Does the update address that?

[Q] alternative camera app

So based on you're experience which camera app would you suggest? I am kind of shocked to find that the camera app is so slow. My Blackberry Q10 is very quick compared to my Turbo.

I really like the Google camera app.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.GoogleCamera&hl=en
Unfortunately on the turbo it still does have some lag. Hopefully that will be fixed with future OTA updates.
The main thing I like about Google's app is the option to take photosphere images and panoramas. I know the stock camera app does panoramas but Google's app allows for much higher quality images.
I have taken some really awesome images using this app.

Latest, 3.6.7 with permissions removed. Definitely works for me. Maybe restart too - sometimes it seems like camera apps can lock another out.

Ahhhh.... I was going down to the second post and installing the other camera. Nice!! Going to have to play around with it more tomorrow. Thanks again!!!
Thanks to everyone who posted. I actually really like both of those options and will probably use both. Anyone ever try any fisheye lenses?

Do you see this as well on your install?
Yes, those resolutions are correct for the Turbo camera (even though they say a lower MP).
The 5248x3936 is the same as the full 21mp (Standard) mode, and the 5248 x 2952 is the same as the 15.5mp (Widescreen) mode. Assuming that this is what your asking?
Exactly what i was asking. I figured it was cosmetic. Just wanted to be sure.
I will the first update might have sped up my camera. When I left the store it was slow, as I read about. Next day I searched for updates and got one. My camera is normal now. The only issue I notice is swiping to pictures from the camera, it swipes right away, then the screen "blinks" real fast. Might try a different camera to compare though.

Maybe I'm crazy but this seems to speed the shutter up a bit.

Perhaps more tinkering in the ladybug settings could help, or the ability to reduce mp size further?

Yep, other than the resolution displaying wrong it worked good too. I ended up installing the moto camera+ and taking a bunch of samples to compare the two, found it to not take any better pics than the moto camera + with the settings unlocked.

[Q] Does the L Camera, or camera2 api, work on the Nexus 6?

It would seem silly if not, but I haven't seen confirmation. I've just seen that it works on the Nexus 5 and not on the Nexus 4.

No problem, I'm still looking for a decent camera app as well. I wish I could use the stock LG one from my G3 on here but I don't think it will work.
Did you try L camera too ?
His git is here go into it and download the app
https://github.com/PkmX/lcamera/
Hit view code and scroll down it's Lcamera-debug just updated today

It opens and I can take pictures but it crashed after that. I tried to mess with the settings in the app but then it crashed again.
I want to use the moto x 2014 camera app but I need root to install it. It fails to install normally, are there any other good alternatives to a basic camera app like the moto one or the LG ?

There's no option for it as of right now. Also the photos look a little worse than the stock camera app when I compared them. The app has potential if you can edit the photos saved as a RAW format.

I see by the pics that there are a number of options that end in x60. Is that frame rate? What do the videos look like when you use those? The assumption is that the playback is still going to do 30 fps and if shot at 60fps then the playback would be slo-mo.
Also what are the grayed out options and the blue options, if you know?

In assuming that is the frame rate.
Blue is my selected option, grayed out are ones that I can't click (don't work on my phone)

Mi A2 : Grainy Videos After Update

Hi guys,
I just fastboot flashed my MI A2 to the latest September update because somehow I wasn't receiving OTAs since I purchased the phone.
However, after updating it, I noticed considerably more grainy videos and its also visible in daylight. I am not sure if it's just my imagination or anyone else facing the same issues? The photos are OK though.
Is this kinda issue possible after an update? Thanks in advance.

How can you pull it back?
I just checked video (with the update), pretty sure there are 2 differences, but 'grainy' isn't necessarily one of them.
Did video resolutions change? I don't remember 4k30fps being there or even 1080p60fps? The other thing I *think* is different is the PDAF was working before and now AF doesn't happen (that's for sure). You can touch a focus point and that works, during the video, but pretty sure it was doing that itself before.
Once it's focused, for me anyway, it's very clear.

I guess the only way for me to find out is to directly compare the vidz btw my mom's phone and the problem phone when I see her over the weekend. This bugs me so much.

Hmmm, so just tested again, AF is working! How bizarre. Guess it goes to show one should always close app, maybe even reboot, and test again, just to be sure.
So I have finally compared the video of my phone to my mom's which is not updated. Apparently it was just my imagination. Been too used to the vastly superior video quality of the OP6. LOL.
Sorry guys for the false alarm.

Camera underexsposing

Hi. I am interested in getting this phone.. But most of the camera tests I see online, the images are too dark. Also, strangely, although images are generally underexposed, they still somehow manage to blow out highlights sometimes.
I am very impressed with the camera quality apart from the issues stated above, but surely they are software issues and can be fixed with a patch or alternative camera app?
Thanks

Everything can be fixed and by far improved using the GCam. Search the thread for examples.
Thanks
I saw some pictures but they didn't seem hugely better to me.
Plus most apps need a root to install?
I wouldnt wan't to buy a phone and risk installing an app and then can't send it back if I'm not happy.
Do you know a link for some good picture and video samples?
Thanks

There was one where the Stock camera was better I think.
But all the others the Gcam looked quite a lot better.
And does the Gcam also give better video recording?
