i am on stable 7.0.3... is there a way to enable 720p playback and recording? tried lots of alternate camera (3 versions of miui), anrecorder, lgcamera and 720p recording fail on all of them. MY guess is that as cm7 cannot even play 720p, it cannot record it... is there an addon to flash to enable it?
i have installed vorkkernel but still no 720p
anyone? any idea?
Why not ask this in CM7 ROM thread?
My guess is that 720p is disabled in all ASOP ROMs and is only enabled in some hacked ROMs.
By the way, with CM7 ROM you can play 720p video.
will try to ask in cm7 thread thx but these threads are a bit difficult to follow and you hardly get replies.
are you sure it can play 720p video?? what format are you referring to? mp4? i have tried some mp4 720p.. it does not play with hardware decoding.. with software decoding, the video is very very slow and audio is like 5 or more minutes out of sync with vid
I flashed this ROM but found that 720p playback is not smooth. How to fix? Thanks!

I think you need a good SD card, ex: C10
or use other player to playback, ex: Moboplayer

Thanks for your reply ..... but I found 720p playback is smooth when I was using Insertcoin 1.0.5 A2SD+
This problem also exists when I flashed Insertcoin V45 A2SD+ / Insertcoin 1.0.8 A2SD+
Anyone has the same problem?
Thanks!
Same problem here with Insertcoin v45 and class10-sdcard
Playing a youtube HD trailer(720P) is smooth on RCMixHD v2.0.
Recording 720P however is NOT smooth, so if you play your recorded movie, it is not smooth of course. Maybe you mean that recording 720P is not smooth...?

I didn't record 720P video after flashing the RCMix S v2.0 / Insertcoin v45 / Insertcoin 1.0.8 (all are A2SD+ version) ...... so, it's not relating to video recording ... I think.
Actually, I wanted to find out what happened and I flashed the Insertcoin 1.0.6 yesterday ... I found that the playback of 720P video is also not smooth (same as RCMix S v2.0 / Insertcoin v45 / Insertcoin 1.0.8). It looks like Insertcoin 1.0.5 playing 720P at 30fps but the newer ROMs playing 720P at 15fps.
I just want to know is it my own problem or the others suffer the same?

Playback is fine with InsertCoin Nightly v44 don't know about recording though, never record anything

Videocodec compatibility problem?
Have you tried another videoplayer like Moboplayer or Rockplayer for instance? (I haven't seen you answering this question yet)
On RCMix S v2.0 a 720P youtube HD movie trailer(Movie: The Road)seems to play OK, but maybe this isn't the right thing to test since I know youtube 720P is nowhere a 720P blueray rip. I don't think 720P from youtube is that much compressed, thus less quality in most cases.

Same problem with Moboplayer. And I also tried Insertcoin v44 and the playback also not smooth, too. Is it due to other factors such as the version of Radio?
ALL THE CREDIT FOR THIS FIX GOES TO GALNET
Galnet posted a fix for 720p choppy recording in the MIUI post.
The problem I found was that it didn't work for everybody.
So, after doing a tkdiff on the changed file for the fix: media_profiles.xml, I saw that the 720p fix is a change of the recording bitrate from 12,000,000 to 10,000,000.
For my phone it wasn't enough and I was still getting choppy recordings, so lowered the bitrate even further to 5,000,000 and now I have flawless 720p recording!!!
How to fix the issue:
1) Make /etc/ R/W (use root explorer)
2) Edit the file: media_profiles.xml and change the bitrate line:
<CamcorderProfiles cameraId="0">
<EncoderProfile quality="hd" fileFormat="mp4" duration="60">
<Video codec="h264"
bitRate="12000000"
to:
bitRate="5000000"
3) save the file
4) make /etc/ R/O again
5) enjoy 720p recording
NOTES
1) HD playback is still choppy -- so you have to transfer the file to your computer to test!!!
2) You can try and increase the bitrate from 5000000 to 10000000 (which was GALNET's original value) -- and if it is still good for you great.
THANKS A LOT GALNET!!!
Somebody knows what the bitrate is for 720p videos in Samsung roms?
JVP:
quality = 'high'
fileformat = 'mp4'
duration = '60'
video codec = 'h264'
bitrate = '10000000'
width = '1080'
height = '720'
framerate = '30'

On XXJVP rom the bitrate for recorded 720p videos is ~12mbps
When on cm7 i found out that playing with different cpu governors influences the 720p choppiness more or less as well. Conservative governor messes 720p up, while on demand improved it....but didnt get rid of it.
Havent tried galnet's fix or their latest miui but on a pc the reported bitrate of 720p material from SGS is ~12mbps + ~2mbps audio track
Im on Doc kitchen jvp rom now with SGS2 camera app and works butter smooth. Its not just the recorded material that is smooth but also when panning around just after starting the camera app is very fluid (as opposed to cm7/miui)
Thanks! I also found out about this workaround by looking at the patch to 7.7, which diff showed a change from 12,000,000 (in 7.5) to 8,000,000. I don't recommend lowering that value to 5,000,000 because more kb/s = smoother video. Though I noticed something strange:
1. After upgrading to 7.7 (8,000,000 bitrate), I tried catching a HD video with MiuiCamera, that produced a very choppy video (still...) with unsynced audio.
2. I catched another 720p video with Android Camera, and the result was better, though I don't like the m4v container for the output files.
3. I used MiuiCamera to record another HD video, but this time it was perfect!
4. The following videos shot by MiuiCamera were still as good, even after a reboot, for now.
So, I don't think we require the Camera.apk to make MiuiCamera.apk work as it should. There is probably something about the governor or kernel ticks (HZ) which is clashing with the 720p recording. For the "record" (lol), I'm using the smartass governor on Zach's NEO 08, while scheduler and OC/UV don't seem to have a high relevance.
Also, why does MiuiCamera produce a 3gp video for 720p recordings, while it's clairly specified to use the mp4 container? I also used Avidemux and ffmpeg to check the video, and it has a 1280x720 resolution with H.264 and AAC codecs. So, why the 3gp extension?
EDIT: I forgot, have you understood why the m4v max bitrate was lowered to 2,000,000 while stock JVP has 12,000,000 ?
Any other feedback aside from this comment?? I would appreciate if you guys found a way recording a nice 70p vdieo from my phone
Currently on CM7 recording is bad, doen't work properly. Users from galnetMIUI forums claim that recording works fine with Chameleon release. Fix is not public, so... CM7 hasn't got proper 720p video recording
It isn't the unique change...
Probably some more changes in the kernel also.There was a thread on their forums, where a user said thar 720p recording works only with default kernel, while with custom kernels doesn't. It's quite annoying, using a stock/custom ROM based on official looks really slow for me, using CM7 feels really good and fast... but with the loose of recording, which I really need for my little girl's unique moments in life recording. The High setting for camera in CM7 makes recording possible, there are very small glitches sometimes, but it's a pitty to not use it a fully potential.
Thats not a "fix"? It just lowering the bitrate which means less smoothness and worse quality.
That aint a "fix" for the problem to me
Actually looking at the xml file mentioned in the first post, in the case of latest nightly of CM7 the value is 10000000. But, keep in mind that the post is from june, and in the meanwhile the real fix came with galnetMIUI chameleon (or something) which is later. So, they must have figured it out in the meanwhile...
worked for me
Worked for me.
I decreased HD bitRate from 10000000 to 5000000 bps
also decreased HIGH bitRate from 3000000 to 2000000
my video is now playing quite smooth.
Thanks
SGS I9000, Cyanogen 7.1.0
is this applicable to galnet miui weekly?
screwing around with the lgcamrecorder app settings may help?
on HD i' 10000000 too, but had ploblems on recording. record in format M4V, but look mediaprofiles it wrote as MP4. why it record different format?
Hello. I have a problem with HD viedo playback with my defy. Its lags, quite a lot, with 480p fine. meybe there is a optimization tool?
Dey running on CM7 , for playback i use RealPlayer 1.72
for me its working flawlessly cm7 @1000 mhz
I don't think that can handle 1080p content.
okay, 1080p may be too much but 720p...
tried overclock even up to 1200mhz
