Can i ask what microsd your using? (class) Mine is clear put it pauses every now and then! I think my sd is a class crap(2) the one that came with it! And i've been eyeing up a kingston 16gb class 10!!
Aww nice movie!

It's the standard one that came with the Desire, class 2. The video sometimes stutters when playing back on my Desire and i am wondering if it's to do with the class of SD card.
Nice animals indeed!
Do you have the original 3GP vid file you can upload somewhere?
Colours seem better than Eclair at 0 saturation. You needed +1 to get such colours with it.
There's a few YouTube issues on the HTC 2.2 OTA release mentioned by some, one being the vids pausing/stuttering at times but I haven't otherwise seen vids behaving as such through the SD. I play at least 1-3 hour vids daily on this phone albeit only a few at 8Mbps like the 720p recordings.

Kingston 16GB Class 10?Dude,you must be crazy!And luckily enough,I'm the same!I already have it and it's ****in' FAST!No stuttering etc and everything loads lightning fast!
And about that crazy part,I'm just kidding.Although 100 euros is a little too much for a memory card,but who cares?

That vid is quite excellent how it turned out. The source vid looks far better than that YouTube vid and you have area's of 50-83 FPS on there. The colours are very good.
Also, your vid is completely unplayable on my phone (due to the SD card) with endless stalls and stuttering. No such problem from the laptop or PC.

Thanks, I'm glad its not just me having playback issues from the SD Card. Thinking of going for a class 4 or possibly class 6 card to see if that improves performance. I wonder if part of the frame rate issues are down to the class of SD Card used.
BTW I've done another test video, this time indoors. Here's the YouTube video.

this has nothing to do with it, it's the evo itself, when you play a video regardless of class, it is choppy in 720p, the best way to shoot is vga. sorry lol

Have the same problem and after readin 100's of posts about it it seems that there's a 50/50 chance that gettin a higher class SD card will work.... I have yet to try yet but if you do let me know.... It would be really nice if it worked right
And it doesnt matter if you "play" the video on the phone or not.. it has to do with the recording of the video, becuase it's choppy/laggy whether it's watched on the phone or on a desktop..... So it's not a problem with the EVO screen...
could you try this out

I got a 16Gb class 6 Kingston SD card and it didn't help - still lousy 720p results.
MikG 2.5
ChopSuey 9.2.7
Going on a long long trip and only have room for my Dinc.... Will a class 4 card get the job done or do I need to get a class 6?
Thanx!
That really just matters when copying/writing the initial file and on read times.
For video saving or video playback, it might save you and extra few seconds during the save or load times, but it shouldn't matter at all.
I have a 16GB class 2 card, ran the SD card speed test app, and it came out as a class 4 card.
I notice perfectly fine speeds on my card. I never seem to think to myself, "this thing is damn slow." If you do something like sync 500+ songs to the card at one time, sure it may take a little while to initially find them, but after that there's no wait.
Hope that helps.

I just made a post about class and brand in the accessories section. Take a quick look at that. But class shouldn't really save much time unless you are recording really long videos, the most it will save you is maybe 2 seconds TOPS after finishing video recording. My sandisk 16GB class 2 saved videos in 2.5 seconds or less.
ok, thanks for that info. i was under the impression that the write speed of the card was a limiting factor in bitrate/framerate. Therefore I would get better video quality using a faster SD card. I have seen posts where peeps complain about jerky video @ 720p and the class 2 card is most always the culprit.

Well considering it isn't attempting to write the video as it is recording, class does not apply to this. Framerate/bitrate is controlled by the recording software and the camera itself. SD card just stores the finished product.
More for less, or same for more?
Rather than pony up the extra benjamins for a higher class card, why not get the/a bigger 32 Gb class 2 card, like the one from Verizon?
I have it, it too tests @ class 4, I've had no issues whatsoever.
My $0.02
cool, thank u for that 2 cents.

Well it depends if someone needs faster transfer rates or higher capacity, as well as cost difference. 32gb cards are going for 75 to 90 bucks still being that they are still relatively new, while a 16gb class 10 from kingston is about the same price, maybe even cheaper with transfer rates at least 3 times faster than any class 2. All in preference.
So as far as media playback goes, will I notice much of a difference on class 4 vs class 6 on a 32 GB card? The speed difference is really in file location, not playback right?
Basically, yes.

no no your not understanding, becuase data rates are around 8 mbs (iv made three videos , one of snow falling one of playing cod6 on playstation and talking with a friend all are 8mbs -8.4 mbs, and fram rates in low light get to like 15fps) it seems that the bitrate is too high for sd cards and potentially for the qsd 8250 soc,

Class4 card should be able to write at 4MB/s or 32Mbps. Blame the ROM, not SD card.

But it was the same on the stock android 2.2 that came with the phone, Leedroid has made it much better it only stutters little bit.
stock verison was a joke.
I want to buy a 32go card for my play, but I don't know what kind of card works with it. What class do I must buy: 2, 4, 6 or 10? What the differences between classes and what have you on your play?
Thanks!

I've always heard to get a class 10, and that's what I plan to get very soon.

There's pros and cons to getting Class 10 cards.
From what I read, Class 10 offers the best read/write speeds so this is a positive point.
The problem is, the random access performance of higher class cards is not as good as the lower class cards.
Some users have stated that Class 10 cards in their Android devices have created lag, which is attributable to the lower random access performance.
Personally, I'm using a Class 4 32GB Transcend card and so far I've not experienced any problems. I did use a Class 10 16GB Kingston and it my Play did suffer some lag.
I think the main advantage of higher class cards is performing file transfers between sources, as the higher write/read speeds would indicate.
yes that is true some people say that there class 10 cards give them lag in games.
i have a class 10 memento card in mine but i havnt had any lag issues
but i do notice that transfering large amounts of data
and loading games times are faster on a class 10
Excuse my newness but where do you find the info about which class your card has...I'll be in the market for one but I was never aware if this class information.

If you look on the microSDHC card, it will have a circle with a number in it. That is its class.
If there is no number, it is Class 2.
I bought a class 10 Lexar 32gb microsdhc and i was shocked when i put it in my play. It was lagging in all the gameloft games most noticeably in Sacred Odyssey. I returned that and bought a 23gb Kingston class 4 and i have no problems with that .
I think its because the card had problems reading lots of small files, i noticed that when i was copying my data over the speed was coming down to 1mb!

I am personally using a Samsung 32Gb class 2 card. It works very well, no noticeable lag in any of my games, be they Gameloft or Fpse. I have a Sandisk 32GB class 4 card I plan to move to, just to lazy to copy everything over right now.
Im using a class 4 sandisk i got from amazon uk for £49.99 no problems here. One thing i can warn you about though is dont go for a class 2 card because if the xperia play ever gets 720p video recording a class 2 card is not going to cope and you will have a loss in recorded frames.

It's not that bad, and digital zoom (which is the only zoom phone cameras get..'cept for that one japanese one..) is just as effective as zooming into your picture after you've taken it. It's a useless, garbage feature, and everyone who misses it should be ashamed.

well digital zoom is pretty ****ty anyway, it is pretty much zooming into the full size image live and then cropping it and enlarging it. You get better results taking a full frame image and then zooming and cropping on your pc.
I also have read in other places that the play is capable to 720p.
Sony usually likes to keep thing hidden so when they release an update you stop raging for a while because there are pretty new things that the device has always been capable of.
I use my 32gb I got from my Thunderbolt. Which is a class 4 and I have to say it works like a charm and way better than its 8gb class 2.

I'm using this exact card in my A500 now -- works flawlessly. It's a little slow to copy large video files over to it, but that's expected for a class 4 card. Read time is perfectly fine for playback of my 720p movies, music, etc.
