Is there a way of changing the bitrate of videos? - Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Well ... googling did not turn up anything useful for Z3 ... there is a Z3-cam-mod for Z1/Z2, with increased bitrate for 4k. Should be possible to flash that, right? But I'm more interested in TimeShift, which seems overcompressed to me. Any hints? Am already rooted with LolliPop and backuped DRM-Keys.
Greetings

Frame rate option in camera?

I've tried recording videos with both "normal" and "high" frame rate options, it doesn't seem to do anything, any ideas why it's there?
The info button says it's the rate at which videos are captured, so would that indicate if it works you'd get slow motion video?
i've been wonderin about that option myself....and changin it really doesnt seem to do anything at all...
There is a pretty clear difference.
However, the X1i is the only phone that has the difference.
It's not completely noticable on the Xperia, but if you play the video on the computer,
there will be a noticable difference in the framerate. Give it a shot!
just open files on advanced player and press PROPERTIES
Frame Rate: > 10fps or 24 fps
the problem is that the framerate goes down when the brightness is low..then the camera gets laggy in recording mode...so there has to be a setting that we can change the minimum frame rate
please developers HELP
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\SonyEricsson\Camera]

Try BsB tweaks 1.6 it has an option to increase video bitrate. If this post helped press thanks.
ok,does it works on windows 6.1? and is it good to change to mpeg4 recording? what settings you used? would you please upload a video to see the difference?

I have no idea if it works on 6.1 because I don't use 6.1. The settings I used are the ones that improved camera and video quality to me they seemed like they worked I hardly use my camera and video anyway , I don't think the OP would put it improves camera and video quality if didn't. I'm not a bout to upload videos that's way to much of my time and effort when this is not my problem. Go ahead and install the cab and find out for yourself .
does i have to be carefull with this tweak,which settings i should change there?
my x1 quality is not that good...yours?

To start off if you are installing tweaks you always want to install them in the main phone memory unless the app says otherwise. I looked into what you were saying and made an interesting discovery the tweaks are not meant for the X1's camera. In the rom I'm using now I went to my multimedia folder and found separate camera and video software( most likely HD2 or rhodiums or HTC camera and video). I went into the software and found all the options the tweaks are supposed to unlock. The hidden video formats are H.263 and 4, 3GPP2, MPEG 4, and Motion JPEG. To my suprise the highest resolution is CIF(352x288). I tried all the video formats and all are very laggy the X1's video camera is way better. I only use BsB tweaks for the Power saving, Policies, SMS Wake Up, Gyph Cache and TCIP/IP Cache. The videos you posted look actually pretty good and the one where you were riding on the bike and past the man be pushed in a wagon made me laugh so hard
hehe these videos are just samples for good quality xperia x1 videos,i found on youtube. i dont made them. my quality is not that good i think. i installed the bsb tweak now on the main memory but really no changes (
highest resolution is CIF(352x288) i would like to see a video in that quality on xperia x1...is there any other good solution? at the moment i use vga,wide screen and endless focus
thx for help

Ya I seen a couple of your posts in different threads saying they are sample videos lol. Believe me when I say this it is very bad with CIF and it is not in fullscreen view mode, very laggy/ blurry when you move it's not even worth uploading a video to show it's that bad. Try macro focus instead of endless see if that improves anything. Also maybe overclocking your phone with more speed might give a better framerate also idk.
ok,i installed wimospeed..how much does i can push up the mhz that it doesnt influence the battery life

Your battery life is going to be the same regardless of the increase of mhz. Every Xperia is different so the results of how high you can push it is going to be different. Try 652 to start.
it doesnt influence the battery life?
Thats a pretty good tool...652,8mhz and its mainly faster but the frame rate in video recording seems to be the same or?
if you have some more usefull tools,let me know.
p.s. my homescreen etc.

is there a chance to change the framerate???
when the light is bad,the framerate goes down :0(,maybe the developers have a solution
the same here
I have the same issue, it is a shame... nice phone, though

[Q] Video quality /recording...

Could someone here investigate on the possibility to swap this dreadful 3GP format on our P990'S for something more "regular" ? And by the way find a way to increase the Bitrate of the 1080p recordings so as to make them more detailed, without sacrificing the fluidity ???
(Paul, if you're reading this.... ! )

[Q] Possible to get only Timeshift / 120FPS video recording? No 4k?

Is there any way I can get just the 120fps video recording bit?
None of my devices, both mobile, and TVs are 4k, and I have no need for it, however almost all my devices are a minimum of 120fps.
Wondering if it's possible to just get that?
I'm on 4.4.4 157, rooted, not deodexed but with a guide I could be.

yeah sure with a workaround, install the file with timeshift and 4k and then, delete the 4k apk in system/app

Youtube resolution

Hi guys, I'm sorry if this has been discussed in another thread, but I've been digging into this for about 2 hours now, and found nothing. I have a backup galaxy s advance, that I recently flashed with a cm 11 rom, and I'm not sure, but I'm under the impression that before with 4.1.2 stock, I could watch 480p videos on youtube, now the maximum resolution is 360p, and it's kinda pixelated. My question is....stock, is 360p the maximum resolution supported ? Also, is there any mod/fix whatever that can force youtube to go to 480p ? From my limited knowledge a 800x480 display should be 480p compatible, but please correct me if I'm wrong I've tried to modify the pixel density from build prop, but with no effect. Any help would be much appreciated
somewhere on the internet I read that Youtube does this restriction when you use HDMI connection to the screen.
I used to have very nice HD streaming for long time but after one of the app updates it is restricted, nothing else changed. I tried even to compare how it looks on my laptop. same video is showing full hd on laptop while on android it shows 360p max.
so by the experience I have it is definitely youtube app which restricts the options!!!!!!!
On stock (and stock based roms) you can watch 480p videos.
On KitKat you can't.
But you could try alternative apps like this one for 720p videos.
ALSO you can use this module in XPOSED called YOURTUBE you can change the resolution of the playing video ( i have not used it myself but the dev has mensioned it in module info)
Thanks for the suggestions guys

Youtube qualities

Hello guys. Im the new here. I was using stock rom 4.1.2 and had 480p quality on youtube videos.
That stock system is to old, I cant use emojis on instagram and other. So I decided to upgrade my system. I tried 5.1.1 Lolipop and didn't fit. It lags and memory usage is pretty big. And finally I found 4.4.4 KitKat. It really fits me for perfomances and system addons. But there is a problem with YT quality. I heard somewhere I need to change DPI settings to get 720 or 480p quality but that doesn't seems safe to work with it. I was googleing and found that CM11 can't change systematically DPI. What should I do with Youtube? I downloaded many modded apps but quality is still same (360p).
