Looking for a HQ video recording app

Hello all, I am looking for a HQ video recorder application for my HTC Evo 4G. I currently use tap-a-talk for HQ audio recording which works great, any ideas for video other than the stock camcorder?

There really isnt any better solution. The bottleneck in the bad recoding is the codec that android uses for 720p.

Bummer.....so there is virtually no way to load a different codec on my device? I am able to record HQ audio not using HTC's recorder app but a third party app. Is that not using a different codec?

If tour good at coding its highly possible.

Also, Kernels Make A Big Difference.

Well good ol kernel #17 was great but I don't think It's compatible with 3.70. If it is, I need it.

wow, its my 2nd post.. lol .Anyway i tried using tape-a-talk audio recorder, and yes it works great. So then i tried to mix it.
First i start the record on tape-a-talk. then i press home button so the recording still continue. After that.. i open the camcorder app, in setting i choose record without sound (if choose with sound, the camcorder will force close). Finally i edit it on PC, a little trim on the audio, using a video audio merger, i sync the audio within the video. Voila.
The problem was.. the laggy video, very hard to sync the audio and video.
I guess i'll buy a new microsd class 6 or 10, hopely it'll improve the video quality.

Can anyone confirm that 720 video can not work with 3.7 ? If this is the case then I may have to go back to a previous sense based rom.

I should have elaborated and said that it is jerky our pauses which makers it almost worthless.

Video recorder with software recording

In the CM7 thread, theres a workaround for video playback. And thats using mxplayer with a software codec (thanks whoever said that! post here so i can thank you ). Is there any app that can software RECORD video? Or does it not work like that?

Try LG Camera, it has camcorder. I can record video with it,but no luck on saving video .

Thanks! Now I can watch funny vids =P

Doubt it, you'd have better results using a video editor to make it slow motion.

Doubtful, you'd be better off taking normal 720p video and putting it in a video editor program and adding slow mo like that. Even $300 Point and shoot cameras that have the option of taking slow mo lower the resolution to something like 3-5 MP's and the XP camera isn't really that good.

I doubt it,but even if it was, the video would be extremely dark and blurry

picture or video?
if you mean picture, try fast burst camera https://market.android.com/details?id=com.spritefish.fastburstcameralite&feature=search_result there's also a full version of that..
if you mean video to record them slomo, maybe you need a super power..

I had a LG Viewty at some point and that phone could shoot 120 pics a second and yeah it was dark and blurry unless you shot in sunlight. It was a fun little feature, but not really usefull and i would think it would be the same for the play.

Is there an Editor for android?
Sent from my R800i using XDA App

Afaik there aint one for android per se. Samsung made one for some of their devices running android. Someone ripped it and posted the apk and files here on xda. I tried it on my HTC Desire HD when I had that phone. It didn't work as it needed something in the touchwiz framework.

[Q] App for 60fps camera

Is there any app out there or hack to make video recording 60fps? I'm sure the hardware in the S3 can do this, I just haven't found any software out there. The 60fps could be in 720 or 1080.

The hardware might be capable of it though, which would take software coding to make work. There are hacks for other phones and cameras to make it work none that I've seen for our device.

Pixilated YouTube

Is YouTube Pixilated for everyone using the app or only those running custom ROMs like CM11? The only work around for me was using the previous version (4.x) of the YouTube app. But then you miss out on the new UI and floating Window.

Its pixelated also on stock rom. Im using Viral instead.

youtube's app doesnt support hd playback. The HQ option is 480p actually and not HD. Take a look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2579795

That method, viral, and the old YouTube app produce the same video quality in HD mode. It's the new YouTube app that shows horrible quality on the G Pad in HD. Its weird because on my phones the new app has always shown HD in actual HD.
