Camcorder and video Questions - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II

I'm trying to use my camcorder to record simple videos for upload to YouTube. I would like to do some simple edits of the videos, such as removing/replacing sound and cutting extra scenes before upload. Any suggestions on some free programs that will work with Samsung's video format? Either phone or PC apps are fine.

I use the one from samsung apps store. Its callwd video editor. Works good

I downloaded it earlier and it seems to work well for doing quick trims but unless I'm missing it the app doesn't seem to have the option to replace/remove the audio. I would just mute the audio when recording but the Samsung camera doesn't seem to have that option.

open inline YouTube videos in YouTube app

Does anyone know how to force inline YouTube videos in the stock browser to open in the YouTube app instead of flash?
I hate the full screen flash view of YouTube. Everything is tiny and a little laggy.
If the YouTube video has a YouTube icon on the lower right of the video (some don't), then you can click on that and it will take you to the YouTube app.

thanks but I tried a bunch of webpages and none have that youtube icon. I've seen it before so I now what you are talking about.

It's surprising to me that using the stock browser to watch a google-owned youtube video in full screen results in such a disaster: it's virtually impossible to tap the button you want.
Try going to apps>browser>clear defaults then navigate to a video
in the browser. Does it let you choose a default for videos then? Only guess I have...

I still get that menu when I click on a youtube link. The problem is with the inline players that show up with flash.
No solution to this?

Movie Maker ala iMovie for Nexus 7

hey...
any movie maker ala iMovie
i tried magisto, but it does not take the file format that i imported.
Video format: H.264 codec, .mp4 file format
anyone know of any other app that can do this?
Just use a player with multi-codec support.
I wonder why you'd be trying to convert the video. If you're just trying to watch then I'd suggest MX Player or VLC which can play (almost) any video format.
Sorry, there are no good movie editing apps for Android. Use a PC.
androvid, vidtrim, converter pro.

i am not trying to convert the video. I am trying toedit the parts that I do not want...maybe add in some works and title or different parts of the clips. Then maybe post it online... much like what iMovie can do on an ipad

Good stuff on the android and vidtrim. Nice and fast.
Still do not have adding title or adding music. The pro version?
Movieaid looks a bit duff at first but works well tbf with titles and audio overlay capability, etc. free version limits length.
Would be good if Google whipped up a nice editor, best thing when ive been around iPads was the ease of movie making.

WeVideo?
I do regular web searches to see if anybody has developed a viable video editor / movie maker for android, and finally there's some hope.
Just came across this tonight - http://blog.wevideo.com/bid/272187/WeVideo-Launches-iMovie-Competitor-App-for-Android
It's a new app called WeVideo (just released, so it's still in BETA), and it's pitching itself as an iMovie-like editor for ANdroid, with some cloud-based features and other differences, but what's important as it appears to provide full "movie making" capabilities across various Android devices.
I just tried it out and it works well, with a few oversights like:
- No transition control
- No volume control for music tracks
- No local, uncompressed storage of published video (not that I've found anyhow)
Just for starters. But, if you don't mind using their simple theme, and don't want to include your own music, it works pretty well.
It's also nice that it supports publishing of your videos directly to YouTube, despite not exporting to sdcard etc.
I'll post this reply in a few other threads asking about better video editors for Android as well.
I'm gonna add my voice to those who wish there was a solid video editing app for android. Video apps seem to be an area where android falls down completely. Of course there are quality players, you'd be worried if their weren't but I can't help feel like there's a massive gap in the market. Is it that its just too hard to create such an app on android?

It's because editing videos is a really taxing process for computers already as it is, and any aspiring video editor requires like a billion features to be any good. It's simpler on iOS where everything is a video camera and the iPad is a kind of standard thing everyone has had. It's only within the last year or so that Android tablets are even decent like the N7, so it's not too surprising to not have any amazing editors yet. I give it another year and we'll have apps competing with iMovie.
Also it just seems way easier to use a laptop/PC to edit videos which are 99% of the time recorded on phones or separate cameras.

Follow-up Question: Download Resolution
As a follow-up question on Tubemate:
I've been using Tubemate for about 5 months now and absolutely love it. One thing I've noticed, though, is that sometimes when I download a video at full resolution, it doesn't play very well in any video player I have tried (stock TW Video Player, MXPlayer, VLC). The video will play for a certain length (sometimes 1/2 the video, sometimes 3/4 of it) and the video will freeze (sound continues) and then the video will restart from the beginning. If I skip ahead of the "freeze point" the video continues fine.
I know that Tubemate downloads the files in sections and stitches it together (think of old-school r.00 and r.01 files), so it sounds like the problem is that the particular section the "freeze point" is in was corrupt. If I download the video in a different format (or redownload it at the original resolution) it sometimes works better.
I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem with Tubemate downloads.

I've had this issue before.. It happens. Sometimes I go to the download folder and make sure its really at a 100%. But I figure its the video codecs on the phone.. sometimes they just hitch a part and its all downhill from there. But tubemate is by far the best. not only do you not have to deal with ads, it gives you options to select which video size you want which is always a plus

I believe its because our phones are 1280x720 and if you download at 1920x1080 then your phone can't play it cause it can't handle it. Its the same for me. As for everyone else.

YouTube looks gross....

Is this app even pushing 720p?? It looks more like the HQ you get on 3G instead of the HD on WiFi.
I have the WiFi only N7.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
To be honest I don't think the youtube app has ever pushed proper 720p let alone 1080p when the HD option was checked.
If you want, you can use a modded version of the old youtube app that allows you to select 720p/1080p and has other tweaks such as screen off playback and the ability to download the videos.
Search google for "youtube modded apk" and it should be the first link from XDA. (I can't post links yet)
As far as I know the only functionality you lose is the floating window thing but personally I don't really see the use in that myself.
Check this video out! I thought it looked great!

Not just the playback but the whole app are so blown up, you can only see 2 huge thumbnails at a time
The new Youtube app messes up the video quality. You can fix it by downgrading (uninstall updates in app info).

Record background music in video

Hi there,
How can I record the music I am listening to while recording video? I want to capture the moment with the music I listen to . It always stops the music playback when a video starts recording. I use the integrated camera app. Stock Android 8, rooted.
Thanks everyone.
Don't think you can, but use the video editor afterwards to add that same track, only takes a few seconds
That is not working as I need tune perfect recording of the exact moment the track is played. I cannot post that.
Which app do I need or which firmware allows that simple function? I remember my old phones being able to do that.

No firmware will allow it, you'll have to look for an app on the play store
Personally I would just edit the audio/video on PC
At least you could edit the mp3 in Audacity on PC to have it start at the perfect place, then use the video editor on Android to add that mp3
Spotify + Instagram?
You can install the "Sound Assistant" from the Galaxy Store and then enable the Dual-App-Sound (in your case, the "sound"-app). Then you can start recording with the camera, and the phone keeps playing the audio, but the Quality won't be the best, because it's recording the sound from the microphone and not internal.
Can confirm
Can confirm. Dual app sound in Sound Assistant and select your camera as the second app will allow you to play music while recording a video. I also suggest (if applicable) making sure that your setting for your volume control in your camera settings are set to system control and not take pic or start video.
Spotify + Instagram works perfectly!

I opened up Spotify and selected the song and then recorded the video through Instagram and it worked perfectly. Thanks!
