4K Video-limit - Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers

I'm considering buying the Note 9.
I am gonna use it for mobile journalism - recording video, audio and edit it on the phone.
Is it true that samsung has a 5 minute limit for 4k-video? If so, are there a way to bypass that?

10 minutes limit

Does the phone stop recording entirely, or does it keep recording and creates a New file?

It will stop recording. The limits are to prevent over heating.

Haven't bought the phone yet, and I won't indtil I'm sure there is a way to bypass the limit.
So hoping that someone will show up in here Who have tried it out

I have 3 note 9s . I just read this thread and i was like eff it ill use one of them to test this.
I loaded up the camera and set the exposure and focus to lock. set the video to 4K max bit rate and resolution. Enabled all the settings to try and test the app.
...both times i went to record video the phone would lockup. I had to force close it both times , i uninstalled after that.

[Q] Anyone Facing Stuttering While Recording 4K Videos?

I've seen some couple of videos where there is a clear stuttering when recording 4K videos. I'm also facing the same on my device. No problem with 1080p though. Please let me know how many of you are facing this issue?
@rootSU , @simms22 are you guys facing this issue? Please do let me know

Here's mine. I don't think there is any stutter. For some reason YouTube seems to have converted to 360p but it was definitely 4k

I think that's just camera movement due to me. Info t see anything that looks like a framedrop.

Camera with working slow motion... Hit me on PM for details..

Why don't you put it on Play Store?!
Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk
I think that screenshot is camera for hydrogen os. Anyway I hope by slow motion you mean 60 or 120 fps recording of it is the case, great work but don't you think you should put some recording for marketing ? And what's all this pm and secrecy stuff
If you deliver on your promise and put it on the play store, then users will buy it.

I still asking, why our camera sensor is the same of oneplus one, but on the 1+1 they have implemented slow motion and much longer shutter speed, and we can't...

No 1440p option in YouTube?

Hello,
I have noticed that my note 8 doesn't give me an option to watch 1440p quality videos in YouTube. Switching to performance mode doesn't help.
Any solutions for this?
Thanks

Works here on the phone. Maybe a restriction by your carrier... if you not using Wi-Fi?

You got the Phone set to 1440P?
I don't have the 1440p option either.
T-Mobile is my carrier.

Yes, the phone is set to 1440p display setting. I enabled all disabled packages and still no 1440p. I'm with Sprint but on unlocked phone straight from Samsung. Turning on airplane mode and using WiFi doesn't help either.
What is tour version of YouTube app? I have 12.36.56
East fix. Mine (TMO USA) didn't do 1440 either. I found out the phone settings had a lower resulting. You need to put the dismay settings on the highest for YouTube to work

I have done so by putting the phone into performance it entertaining mode but it didn't help. Still don't have 1440 option
Clear the YouTube cache in apps settings.
Update, if I put the phone into performance or entertainment mode and restart the phone then I get 1440p option. If I set it back to optimized setting then I still have the 1440p option but if the screen turns off on it's own then the option is gone
Working fine here, Unlocked on Verizon.
this has been discussed already on this forum and the fix was changing the phone's native resolution display settings to allow for that option.
i always keep the phone in performance mode because i want to take advantage of all these whiz bang features samsung has touted (this is my first ever sammy device).

camera and 4k

Did anyone find a way to record 4k more than 5 minutes? Also when I try to record several 4k 5 minutes videos usually in the 4th or 5th recording the camera shuts down due to heat and I'm not in a good environment. Room temps usually.

Sounds like the limit is a protection. Overcome the limit and you may destroy your device.

How come? Many phones can record 4k with no limits

Maybe nand/sdcard write speed is not fast enough to keep up with 4K, and so while recording it's written only to RAM, and then written to nand/sdcard after recording is finished. If this is the case, you can only use up so much RAM before recording must stop.

How to unlock the video recording FPS?

so the video fps is capped at 30fps at both 720p and 1080p, however I want to record at 60fps, and I know this phone can do 60 fps (atleast on 720p) because slow mo records at [email protected]
thanks in advance.

You can try installing Gcam on your phone. I'm using Gcam6 on my redmi note 9 with pixel experience and this guy records at 60fps(not that good though)

You're expecting a bit too much out of your device. Just loose your pocket and buy a new device if you wanna record 4k 120 fps
If you don't have anything smart to say then don't.
Hardware is capable. Many users said that and so do I.
Otherwise feel free to buy me new device...

Just tell me how then I'll believe. If you don't have the proof then don't bother arguing here.
You can spend your whole life searching how to record 4k ona device which barely handles 1080p.
