Hi brothers, now I wrtie to ask if somebody knows where is the register entry for the xperia camera, I think i found it but it won't show all the entries that the HTC cameras show. The HTC cameras registry entries has all detailed on different folders like JPEG settings, medium quality video, high qualitity video, and stuff like that.
Well, I think that I have the solution for the bad quality video of the xperia when you shake o move your phone, I think you know that I mean. You see always pixelation, and that have various reasons. One is that the video format is very bad quality for, it's only 3GP and we don't have a choice like other HTC Cameras when you have MP4, CIF and other formats. Other reason is the video's bitrate and THIS is our solution.
If we can turn up the bitrate of course we'll have better quality in the videos and we can see especialy an improment in scenarios like sports when we have to move the phone very much. Of course, that bitrate increment become the video more heavy but that's something we have to deal with because the quality worth it.
Other solution is find a way to change the video format to H264 or MP4 and combine the bitrate idea with this video format too.
I have been making some experiments but no luck yet. Any ideas?
Nobody?
I'm sure that somebody can post one good idea. Come on people, you guys make the best HTC's roms and more, I don't think you have no idea about solving this. Somebody?
I think its Sony+HTC problem, not something that belongs to here ...
just like u can't have smile shutter, same ways, u can't change recording format ... may be some time in future, Sony might add support for h264 recording in firmwares, just like they added auto flash and geotag in leaked R3AA/R4AA rom.
Thanks for the reply
Thnaks for the answer! You are totally right in every point BUT I think that waiting is not an option for me because I bought the Xperia almost replacing my HTC TyTN + Sony Camera. I like to record almost all the concerts I go and the Xperia is the right option if we can make some camera improvements. I think if someone give me the xperia camera source code I can do everything by myself, or at least that is that I have in mind
Even, I think we can make a few changes for the camera to allow to zoom when recording video (if somebody haven't done it yet..).
In other hand, where can I find the R4AA rom? I didn't know that was already out. Again, thanks for the reply!

there is no r4aa. he was refering to unknown sourced leaked camera app with geotagging and auto flash, which supposed to be present in r3aa, but never was actually.
zoom facility in the video recording of the xperia is a very welcome step...hope somebody smart enough in the xda forum look forward to it...
I think it could be done, because the camera app uses a system file to access the camera, then it uses a video or picture encoder to produce a picture or a video. If somebody change the encoder and set the new parameters or settings into the camera app i think that it will work.
Exactly
And I'm your men, I wanna do that, but I have to view the source code or something. Where can I find it? Anyone on this forum can give me a hand to start working? Thanks!
I think that the better way is create a new camera app and add lots of features and then sell the app to a company like spb.

hahah nice one, Good luck with it.
if the wanted to make it a camera phone then the wouldn't put wortless camera in it. i wonder why sony didn't put better camera in it like SE k versions my old k750 has better camera .
Hi Folks,
I was just wondering what your thoughts were on how to use the TP2 to do a Video Call
1) At all... The camera is on the back. Some older phones that I have seen have cameras on the front by the screen like the xda.... I think I am correct.
2) With such things as skype. I love video calling off my laptop using skype, but wondering how achievable it is to do this on the TP2?
Thanks,
Sam

Does the video quality of videos in the Youtube app get any better than what it currently is? I'm just wondering because the video quality is much better on the WM app.

On a native Android phone on 2.1, all videos default to HQ, on par if not better than in WM. On XDAndroid, support is crippled without some driver assistance from HTC.

With a video driver, yes. Without a video driver, no. Will there ever be a video driver? Maybe.
The devs are probably better equipped to give you the odds, but it's not something that's inherently easy.
hi everyone
here's a post that I have been looking for but I've never found:
I'm on CM 7 which I love so much right now,
but I miss shooting nice videos like I used to do with the Stock rom
so here's a couple of video I found on my hard disk
(please forget about what I was filming (a drunk woman that weakes me up almost each day with her nice growls or spits))
this first one was shoot within cm 7
http://youtu.be/yISvYhldmxI
and you can hear that the audio quality is not really great picture is fine
also the format of the video is a little unsual, and I can't playback them on mac
this second one (same subject) was made on stock rom and you can really tell
how the audio quality is much better (the high end is much more precise)
http://youtu.be/dXUy3iYtmDg
so my question is..
did anyone else noticed this? and do you guys know of any app or fix or cm setting or whatever that might fix this?
Make the videos available for mobile please(youtube)

It's very difficult to record live concerts even with specific stuff at specific places so with a phone it's impossible to have good sound.

well when zooming it tries to get sound from zoomed place i think as long as you dont zoom in concert its okey.. but say you takinga video to a person talking just one and zoomed on him you get better sound and louder it tries to catch the sound from zoomed placed or person on screen. thats a feature thats how it is.
