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
Had a search and couldn't find an answer so here I go.
I believe that the desire records at 15 fps which leads to choppy recordings vs my iPhone 3gs. I was wondering, is there a hack to increase the fps beyond what it currently sits at?
Thanks

Yes, Froyo. Should add 720p recording at min 20 FPS.
Does the eventual update also add better sound quality to video recordings?
I say AMR 8000khz codec is worse then my now defunct N73....

+1 I'd rather see a steady 30fps + great audio quality 480p video, than crappy 720p.
Is there a hack to get 30 fps now?!

I really don't see why HTC chose to only encode audio with the AMR-codec at such low quality... Is the microphone of such poor quality that they "hide" it using this codec?
Anyone tried recording sound using some another software?

Try the built in Voice Recorder?
It's the same crappy quality...

Then using "other software" will only serve to mask it, if anything.

What would your guys recommend for playing .avi videos on the Desire? There are so many to choose from. Act 1 is good? It's not free

The beta RockPlayer is the best AVI player we currently have. However, which AVI it plays depends on that vids properties (like format).
Check the themes and apps section under titles like 'DivX/XviD player'.
Act 1 is excellent for many other vids, like H.264.

I can't link or search threads through the phone app but this has been discussed extensively before. You can record much higher quality audio using other apps. Mainly those saving in MP3, PCM, MP4 and WAV. I'm not sure how they do it though.
For simple, quick, voice recording I use Virtual Recorder the most.

i absolutely agree with you....i want a super smooth recording and playback at the 480p size and not more...if the quality of this is good then you can upscale it with conversion...but if it's crappy high resolution then even if you downgrade it it won't be very smooth
You can already see what the unofficial, hacked HD recording is like, i.e. http://db.tt/0Ngrnd

As has been discussed a few times priorly, the current vid recording FPS have been observed to fluctuate between ~3-28 based on the ambient light levels, level of motion in the footage and the speed of the cam movement. The current recording can be much improved over but these factors contribute to some hard fundamental limitations.

Xperia PLAY have got 1Ghz CPU, and 5mpx Camera. This hardwares enough to the recorded of HD vido? Or not?
Is the solution of this possible?
(Sorry my bad Englis)
Should be!
One of Sony's recent updates gave you the 720p camera. if your on a custom rom i bet you can find the apk somewhere.
This was one of the early updates. Though it does not specifie it's recording in HD but really it records at 720P when the best quality is chosen in the options. However I personally think that the latest Cyanogenmod 7 video recording was remarkable. Best quality ever seen so far.

What? Really? It's pretty crap if you ask me. It records at 800x480 and the video usually has constant moments of extreme stutter.
What do you like about it? Is there any way to get 720p on CM7?

Yes latest CM7 shoots as 720p on default mate. Best quality so far witnessed!

Are you sure? I've been using the latest CM7 FXP builds every time they're released and I've even tried some CM7 nightlies from the CyanogenMod site.
None of them, including FXP123, do 720p recording. Perhaps you're mistaken? Or have I missed something?
Yes I'm fairly certein. I vivdly remember I was shocked by the performance of the video camera. Flash the latets CM7 and start filming with the highest values in the settings. Then see the video on your computer. Even if he screen size is not 720x900 the video quality most definitly is HD
i saw that xplay will get hd, 720dpi video recording on 2.3.4 update... i just updated via pc companion but how the heck i'm supposed to switch to 720dpi?
I can only choose between high and low resolution, and neither of those looks like it's 720dpi...

It is, just check with Windows Explorer
It's definitely there - high quality option.
Think I'll make a video of it in action sometime soon.
all right, just checked a random video from the pc and it's 720dpi. All right i'm an idiot
But still i'd say it's pretty unclear. With stock sony ericsson camera (or heck i remember with some x10 custom roms having stock android camera recording too) you can select various pixel quality of the video, here with the play is just "high, low" quality but it doesn'e explicitly say what kind of quality is it.

Yea man the XP camera software is pretty craptastic.

In my opinion it's not even true 720p.
It's exactlyt the same resolution as it was before, but simply upscaled and output to a 720 resolution.
Making it a larger file for exact same quality.

Yeah, The Quality is the same as before, And you can render as 720p in Camtasia Studio or After Effects, etc, Wish SE loved us as much as they love Arc customers.
Hi,
I've been looking (for a while) why we can't update to the new youtube.apk with the HD feature. Since the youtube HQ is really a ****ty quality on phones, I tried to get some kind of "real'' 720 p videos.
On my googling, I finally found this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1529715
It's really better now.
Hope it helped.

Agreed. Thanks for the reference here mate!
You should also check out his skype app as well. So much better than the actual one.
Awesome but kinda takes longer to load anything that can help??

Is the video recording quality/audio when recording fixed after the 3.2.2 update? Planning on buying this phone over the upcoming note7/s7 edge. I like the touchwiz interface but not the Samsung bloatware apps like their keyboard/gear manager etc..
I shoot alot of 1080p video I don't think I will ever shoot videos at 4K
For 1080p is the OP3 video quality good enough?

1080p is still pretty ugly. They bumped up the bitrate of 4k video though, so there's definitely a noticeable improvement there.

Audio has been fixed now.
1080p can still find some improvements (OIS still isn't working), but it does give out good video.
Getting an app like proshot will get you image stabilization and allows you to change the video quality beyond what stock does.
