[Q] Video black clipping GONE and PERFECT PLAYBACK, but HOW!

Oki, now im sure that all these video black clipping is software rendering issues and i experienced yesterday, a perfect playback of all videos, without any black clipping. I experience same as many othersm at first day I got mine Note and with same issues all having at Video on Note thread. With all these black clipping issues on dark scenes and suddenly yesterday for first time ever, I could watch videos without any issues at all.
What happened:
I watch a eps of Chuck and as usual, the black clipping are all over the screen, make it unwatchable at dark scenes, for first time I watch it and with the Note video app.
I changed to MX Videoplayer and same video, suddenly all black clipping WAS GONE and a perfect playback without any more clipping. This is first time ever i watch all videos, without any black clipping and i was totally surprised. I tried play it again on Notes video player and NO black clipping at all.
Then I tried with youtube app, that can see clearly on most videos there and still NO BLACK CLIPPING!
This is totally weird for me, I just dont know what happened and why suddenly all these black clipping at dark scenes that I had with the phone suddenly are gone?
Today I watched the same video and the black clipps are back!
Anyone have experienced this weird behaviour before and why black clippings gone one day and comes back another day? Simpel is, what the heck is going on?

Its a strange issue. With my note it seems to depend on how the video is encoded. Some 720p files play fine, others I get the black block effect. But I am now pretty sure the screen is fine as some videos with lots of black / dark scenes play perfect. No one seems to be able yo lock down what is causing it, me included.

Encoding can definitely affect the banding. H.264 is usually fine, but DivX is nearly unwatchable at equal bitrate.

Hi, just tried this. I have tried sevral HD videos that I have on the SD card and some movies from Youtube and other webs. I can no longer see black level clipping. Rendering looks a little more blocky on some flat areas, like it was 16 and not 32 bits. But hell, black clipping was much more visible.
So if this is just a video driver or decoder issue, I hope Samsung puts the fix on the final ICS ROM. A clearly visible bug with an easy software fix cannot be left unsolved.

I am really going to sell my Gnote and go back to SGS2 because of this BLACK CLIPPING

Just proves its not a screen issue but something else.
Was obvious thought because black clipping was not truly everywhere

camera problems greyscale while zoom

Guys, anyone having this problem too? If you zoom from above 1x to 5x (before the switch happens) all pictures from my camera become almost monochrome, I screen recorded what happens.
Check this link, I uploaded a video of what happens to my viewfinder whenever I click the shutter button in zoom option.
Check for example the difference between 1x and then above it

Hey did you find a fix for this? I just picked up a P30 pro and i discovered the exact same behavior with my camera. im seriously considering returning this device because of it!!!

Errrrm, it's a grey cat sat next to a grey cupboard?

Yes, the issue is there on my phone too.... hope they'll fix it somehow

Telephoto lens is a lot lower spec than the main 1x lens, only 8MP
Sometimes for fairly close subjects like that cat and stuff, you're better off using main camera @ 1x and cropping

Help
Hi did you manage to get this fixed? I have the same issue when I zoom the viewfinder is full colour but the picture de saturates when you press shutter
I have been to. Huawei who replaced the camera and I'm still having the issue
Please help if you have the answer
Many thanks

This seems to be a lower specced lens or sensor more than software, it makes the telephoto lens useless.

I have the same problem. To debunk some of the replies, it's not because the cat is grey. It's not because the telephoto lens is of lower quality because it's not used between 1.1-2.9X zoom where muted colors happen and what does "only 8MP" have to do with the colors.
There's definitely a software bug. Like others said, it looks good in the viewfinder but comes out almost greyscale when saving. A bug, just like the main camera being out of focus when zooming back out in video recording. Such simple bugs but still not fixed.

Noticed this too :/

I have this problem too. I had it on emui 9 and now on emui 10. I writed to the support but they think it's hardware defect..

1 year with this phone and the problem isn't resolved yet. And not only that problem, white balance is too blue, the sharpness is really hard, absurd amount of contrast. I'm very disappointed with this phone, because was publicize as "the best photography phone" and It's a lie. This phone do "good photos" if you hate photography.

Video stabilization issues

Hi, i am having the strange issue with video stabilization on my note 9. It started after receiving one of the software updates. The issue is that on certain video resolutions (for me it started on 1920x1080 and 2224x1080 at 30fps) video is cropped and zoomed in as you would expect but the saved video is still shaky. Funny thing is - when i installed Android 10 the issue didn't go away but instead note stabilization doesn't work on 4k and works on 1080 now. I have no idea what's going on and the service center charged me $160 to fix it, but that's quite a lot.
Has anybody faced anything similar?
Can someone please check on your phones if shooting in different resolutions with stabilizer turned on results in different stabilization effect?

Pixelated video streaming

Hi there,
I have recently claimed my galaxy note 9 in insurance and they sent me a replacement device. However, when i am streaming videos on YouTube or netflix or even recorded videos from camera appears distorted and pixels are visible in dark videos. I sent this device back to samsung twice but they are unable to replicate the fault. I have tried all the resolution in display settings but the problem persists. 1080p video seems SD.
Apart from that the overall display has this unusual fadeness like an instagram fillter.
Anyone having this

Question Video's quality bad (lines vibrate?)

So I have my S23 now for 1,5 months and I bought for my vacation to Japan, to make some good videos.
Now that Im editing the videos I noticed the quality is sometimes really bad, especially when moving.
I always move very slow for a smooth video, but it seems like it was even better on my Galaxy S10!?
Also it sometimes seems really grainy...
Horizontal or vertical lines from buildings or lights or whatever start subtly shaking when I pan the camera slowly.
Is this a known issue? Or is there something wrong with my camera?
I recorded most on 0.6 ultrawide, but I check the few videos with the 1.0 and they have the same problem.
My photo quality on the other hand is perfect, so I dont think its the problem I read about in the other thread of a common camera issue.

I think it's happening because of the electronic image stabilization. You can turn off stabilization in camera settings.
