A new way to bypass compression!!

Hey.
At the One X when I choose stabilizations an image while filming program is falling apart. When taking pictures, the image jumps and crazy about the program.
Movies shooting in good quality, but it hangs ...

Hmm? It has always supported the One X.. I've had it installed for a month already -_- Bypasses compression, but not dropped frames. Still as bad as stock cam.

only a few days ago then it started to officially support the one x.

Nice, just installed the Pro version, photo's uncompressed, you'll get a file size of 4,5mb, instead of the 1,5 of htc, better quality
you can record movies in 3gp and mp4.. I've set it to mp4, because that runs better on the One X
also the bitrate to 30mbps, instead of the 7 you get from stock htc camera
stereo quaility record on 320kbps and 48hz
218mb for 1min mp4 movie, hmm haha
maybe I should try 20mbps bitrate

Do you have drop frames in video?

Same happens to me when I try to activate the stabilisation in the camcorder.

Great camera app, I'm playing with it at the moment trying all options and buttons.
Recording in mpeg4 with video bitrate of 100Mbit and video framerate 30 plus resolution 1920x1088. (5 seconds video is 16,9mb)
Switching between picture and camcorder works fine for me and also stabilisation I've enabled, no freeze.
I still use the free version.
I can switch between picture and camcorder without problems.
Also stabilisation I have enabled.
Edit; the camcorder is very very nice, without it the camcorder is great as well but if the zoom would work fluent it would be a kick ass camcorder!
Edit 2; the zoom does work fluent! You can zoom in and out with the volume button WOW !!!!
Last edit; the zoom isn't fluent but I can live with that (hopefully it can be fixed in futher development), bought the pro version.
* Video stabilization
* Auto rotate video

On my stock HOX the free version of lgCamera hangs whenever I go to video-recording mode forcing me to click the menu button to exit the app. It also, somehow, manages to shut down the camera service making even the stock HTC camera to malfunction!
So far the latest Camera ICS (free version) has managed to work flawlessly with my device, making incredible videos that are almost 500mb in size for a 2min clip, but remains on the 24 frames all the time. Videos do look smooth though.
What I want to know is if someone using lgCamera has managed to bypass the stock framerate limit of 24fps? And what are the results?

I'm on a no rooted stock HOX as well, latest 1.29.401.11
Weird but all does function fine for me, no freeze nothing.
I've set the frame rate at 30 but how can I check if it's real 30?
Edit; your right, last video does 21 frames per second.
Edit; my apologies I just realise by reading your post a second time that you do not have any problems on latest version as well.

Hi again,
I've just had a very fast reply by email from the developer of lgCamera.
He told me that previous version 6.25 did hang sometimes but latest version 6.3 is checked on all mode and shouldn't.
Are you running the latest version?

exactly the same issue with paid app, latest version.
it's the only app so far that managed to **** up the stock camera, needed a reboot to get it working again
i also have wrong aspect ratio in the viewfinder after pressing record, when shooting video, but the recorded material is fine....
So far Camera ICS+ is superior, even with 24fps.

The developer of lgCamera has opened a new thread for beta testing
in the general apps and games all device Android section >> HERE

Yes I downloaded the latest free version from the market. I downloaded by other means the old pro 1.25 version and it works flawlessly, it manages 30fps while recording from a moving vehicle! Strange, right?
You can check the framerate and other properties of your videos by opening those files with MX Player.
So, does the newest version lgCamera in your case, create videos with a higher bitrate than the stock camera?

Placing your question within this thread will increase its chances of being answered by a member of the community or by the developer. Thanks for understanding and for helping to keep XDA neat and tidy! :smile:

So I've been using this since released and it is an amazing rom, lovin it.
2 questions about the new camera though. I have seen a video where in split capture both front and rear record simultaneously, however it seems to only work capturing rear camera and then after capturing front camera. Is the M7 not capable of the simultaneous capture? Also does the M7 not support the Full Hd (1920x1080) resolution for videos? When attempting to record it looks very sharp and crisp but when playing the recording back i get blotched colors and a thick green and purple line on the right side of the video.

The m7 does not have native dual capture like the m8 does.
In regular camera before Eye experience, it is able to capture image from both, with a PictureInPicture looking window for front camera.
At one point, I attempted to try and enable dual capture for the m7, but did not have much luck and did not try for long.
It's possible that it could be enabled, but I have yet to do so.
Most of that would be done kernel side and I do believe it can be done.
But HTC never gave us that ability on the m7.
So yeah, to use dual capture/split view, it takes one and then the other.
As far as the video, yes it does HD.
I have yet to do a lot of video with the Eye camera, but I did not notice anything like that in my testing.
You may actually be one of the many who have an inferior sensor, as many have had to send theirs in for repair/replacement for similar issues.
It may just be that the newer camera stresses it more, making it more apparent.
I assume you are in fact on the latest firmware, so that shouldn't be a concern.
If others are having similar effects, then it could be a result of porting the libs and binaries for the new features from the m8.
But if it's just happening for you, or a select few, then I would lean towards the hardware failure that HTC is aware of.

Thanks for the info, after posting this i messed around with the settings for the video issue. This is what I came across, if I set video quality to 1920x1080 via settings and shoot video on auto i get what I described in my post. If I change from auto and shoot in hdr I do not get the blothchy color or lines but image seems to be zoomed in a little.
Now when i set video quality to 1280x720 via settings and shoot video on auto no image issues. If I change from auto to hdr still using 1280x720 in the settings i get a 1920x1080 video that looks like it should not zoomed in either.
Seems odd but got it working. So would this be a hardware issue like you suggested or issue with the app, seeing it was meant for the M8?
Thanks again for sharing your work !

Camera Issue
First off Santod, been using your ROMS for quite a while now and have greatly appreciated your hard work. I have just one problem with this new one, as I see someone has already stated, I too am having an issue with my camera during recording. It looks fine on the screen while recording, but after recording i go to look at the video, and it's almost as if the split picture is active, but only for the back camera. What I mean is that there appears to be a line cutting the screen into two sections (like the split picture does, but it's still the whole screen video from the back camera) and the colors are off, almost as if it has the negative filter on but not quite. I have not had any issue with the camera previous to installing this new ROM. There is also a green line that shows up on the top of the video, on all the videos i have taken. Im not entirely sure that it isn't a software issue as I haven't had any trouble on previous roms, but I'm sure you know a lot more about it than I do. I'm about to reflash the ROM and see if that doesn't maybe fix it, but I figured I would let you know of the only problem I have encountered so far. Thanks again for all your work!

I tried this also, and it had the exact same effect for me. I wish I would have seen this yesterday as I recorded a whole show last night with messed up video and didn't even know it lol. Thanks for this, I guess I will use this as a workaround for now.
---------- Post added at 04:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:32 PM ----------
Upon closer inspection when i played back the video on my computer, the video is actually two of the same videos playing next to each other, not a whole video cut in half by a line.

some bug, need fix
Before, i really Thanks You cuz best series Rom for M7 VWZ.
Yesterday, i up this Rom for my M7 VWZ, but have some bug ...
I'm from Vietnam and use GSM Sim, i'm up from NuSence 4.4.3 and have some bug....
1> Only Call success at first call, then need restart for other call.
2> have icon Sim Notsupport in status bar,
i was reup many times but it's still that, now, i;m go back NS 4.4.3
P/s: Can you port "Ufocus" on M8 for M7 VWZ ?

I don't have any reboot options on my power menu. The only options I see are "Power off" and "Airplane mode". I also can't find any options for changing this, either in the installer or in Settings. Is there a way to fix this without doing a full wipe?
If it makes any difference, I originally installed this ROM using a full wipe with Nova Launcher selected, then later re-installed without wipe to change the launcher to Blinkfeed (but the reboot option has never appeared with either launcher).

Issues with Chromecast
Hey Santod,
I have been trying to mirror my screen with the chromecast app. as it connects it then disconnects and never actually works. I had it working on your older Nusense Six 8.0. Just wondering if this is something you can work on or if this is something I will just have to wait until the next iteration of builds.
Thanks,
Kevin Clark

Casting screen with Chromecast
Does anyone else have issues casting your screen with Chromecast? I tried, and it immediately ends the cast, leaving my TV at a black screen.
Thanka

I can also confirm that screen casting my screen no longer works as it did in the previous NuSense. So far this only appears to be an issue with Mirroring. Casting from apps like Youtube and Netflix work fine for me.

My battery life with this rom has been insane. I'd be at thirty percent after ten hours on gpe and dirty unicorns and the dalvik version of nusense.
Thanks for making a great rom, looking forward to Chromecast screen mirroring.

So I can't get ART to stick. Every time i switch to it and reboot it doesnt change. I am using xposed modules if that makes a difference

In having an issue with Bluetooth audio
I can pair my head set but it won't pass any audio
Any ideas?

Anyone else having issues with GPS / Google Maps on this ROM?

Was this version supposed to not have the Sense toolbox installed with it? I'm not sure how else to enable the swipe-typing otherwise...?

Issues switching to ART
Hey Santod,
I haven't gotten any reply from you about the chromecast issue. I understand. You are a great developer. I did have a quick question about ART though. I tried to switch my Phone to ART, but it didn't actually switch over when I told it to reboot to switch to ART. What am I doing wrong?

Currently I have a broken arm, so my presence and ability to type are somewhat effected.
i dont use Chromecast so cant help too much there.
i know I saw info online about it and how you have to access it differently then what seemed obvious.
As for Art, Xposed is not Art compatible and will auto revert you to dalvik if enabled.
So you have to choose one or the other, which is why I left Xposed out of this build.

LG G3 4K Video on AOSP - did it ever work for anyone at all?

A while back CM12 had a patch that enabled 4K video recording. I remember that it even worked SOME of the time, but mostly it showed to be recording without saving anything. Currently on CM12 and Blisspop the option is again removed - probably because it was buggy: review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/103494
I've tried many different camera ZIPs from other manufacturers (Motorola cam, Lenovo cam) but they do not appear to enable 4K either.
I tried playing around with the media_profiles configuration file, uncommenting the 4K profile. This does enable 4K video recording - even saving, but the framerate is really bad (<10), both with stock and third party cameras.
So my question: Did anyone ever get smooth 4K video to work on AOSP? If so what was the combination of software used?

yes it did work for idiots who;
1) flased xXcameraXxfix_AROMA_VIPERPRO_v4_FAKXDA_LIKE_SUBSCRIBE_DONATE_YOUTELLMEBUGS.zip
2) set the resolution to 4K
3) shot a video
4) never realized it didn't even save, even if it did, it was lagging between 5 and 15 fps
TL;DR
no, it did not, i have flashed all the 3rd party crap from random monkeys claiming they fixed the camera on aosp promising stock quality
to those who come in here telling me it does, provide proof or gtfo

BUT, is there any non-stock ROM with STOCK camera quality? No 4K, I do not need that, only 1080p (60 fps or 30).

Nope Coki4, unfortunately Tehosiris is right: with the HTC cam and resolution "fix" I can record in 4K, but it is still way too low framerate (15 FPS or worse).
Voterx: To me 4K is most important, hence the thread. If i want proper pictures I take my DSLR anyway... 4K video is something that is really a beautiful thing if you have the screen to display it. There is a huge difference between 1080p and 4K.
To me it is starting to look like the camera driver in AOSP source is just not able to push the pixels?

Snap camera does it. I have also found that snap camera takes as good, or better in some cases, pictures as the stock camera.

What are you doing to get those file properties? Want to check what my jerky files say..
edit:
Properties here also shows 30 fps, but the video is jerky as fuuuuuu* - i guess it is saved "as" 30 FPS but it just drops a bunch. Yes it is 4K but def not 30 FPS, even if the file shows it to be (for me).
but.. if it is smooth for you I want to know your exact rom details so I can try to achieve my holy grail.

can one of the digital cowboys upload these fabled 4k videos shot on aosp?
i still yet to see a nonstock 4k video that doesn't lag like ****
@geekmystique the jerkyness doesn't show in properties, they are just the same as regular videos, you can check the properties in root explorer or any other file explorer.

your 2nd screenshot shows that the 4k video is in 59.9 fps, now THAT i'd like to see.
bending physics with an apk eh? :laugh:

Let's not make this into a flamewar of sorts.
This is a video I took of my hand waving in front of the camera, whatever the file info says, it is not 30 FPS - by far, it is dropping frames like crazy. The file properties say 30 FPS in MPCHC, but windows properties shows the truth: 18 FPS.

i suggest you take a look at the camera comparison post here on xda, showing stock / moto / htc / whatever side-by-side
there is no such thing as stock quality on non-LG driver backed software
Anyways, i'm absolutely on geekmystique's side here, i've had multiple people giving me lectures how i need to flash xyz.zip set ABC settings to DEF, align my device towards Mars, count to 7 and stand on my left foot to have AMAZING STOCK QUALITY PHOTOS AND VIDEOS.
Guess what, i've done all those steps, flashed all the zips, pirated all the ****ty apks and gotten nothing but disappointment.
Thats why there is sarcasm towards these 'BUT MY AOSP CAMERA IZ BETTUR BRUH YOU SUK', when it's clearly not. Hell, half of the conversations ended at 'WHO NEEDS 4K' or 'I DONT NEED CAMERA ANYWAYS' which is ridiculus when it's these people giving lectures on how to flash stuff they don't even know what it contains.

If so.. Please post the video - my video that I posted also says 30 FPS, but it stutters like mad. If you can get better video I would be really happy to know.

Guess the aosp camera is just as good as stock boys are back in their caves.

I use Cloudy only because of Xcam. I really would like a [email protected] or [email protected] for CM12.1

[Q] Video taken with stock camera (last version) saved an upside down video

Well, I have read stuff about the Nexus 5x saving upside down images/vids with 3rd party apps that didn't use API correctly, but today I saved a video, which looks OK on the device, but when I send it to the PC.. it is upside down.
Is this common? it has any fix? can I fix the vid somehow?
If this happens to the stock camera... what the **** Google..
I've read somewhere that it's normal, the sensor it's upside-down so it puts a flags for apps to turn it around.. the problem is that I tested any program on Windows (Media Player Classic - Home Cinema, VLC, WMP, etc..) and ALL of them show the video upside-down...

Hmm, I downloaded the last version from hpc hc yesterday and it was still upside down. What is that madvr render stuff? Some sort of plugin? This is interesting because if this works im keeping the n5x, if not im returning it (because I want the video reproduced well on pc)
Thanks!

No special settings. Just set madVR as default renderer and launch video by double-click. At least it working in my rig with external GPU. Here is also the feature request in mpc hc trac: https://trac.mpc-hc.org/ticket/2202.

How has google/LG not come up with a better fix for this? Two of my apps that use the camera (Stampt and Chase Mobile Banking) show the video upside down. It is extremely annoying. I realize that the app *should* be updated to the latest API, but if you make upside down hardware YOU should be the one to fix it, not force everyone else to conform.

Works! Thanks a lot!!!! Too bad madVR lags some the video reproduction (specially when returning from full screen) , I don't know why I have to move to such thing just for this device. I hope MPC-HC adopts it soon!!

Google. They didn't even use the API how they say on most of their apps. Google is the enemy of nexus lately.

Another option in MPC (Media Player Classic - Home Cinema) besides MadVR is to rotate the video while playing. Use the following the shortcuts (alt + numpad 3) twice to rotate to 180 degrees as shown in my attached image.
I know it's a pain but this is a workaround for now at least. Along with MadVR.

Has YouTube HDR Stopped Working for You? (Pixel 2 XL)

Hi,
YouTube HDR has just stopped working for me. I can still select the resolution + HDR for a compatible video, but the brightness no longer automatically jumps to maximum to cater for the larger dynamic range. It was working right up until yesterday, and doesn't seem to correspond with a YouTube update, either. It's like Android isn't detected the HDR source even though it's selected, and so HDR videos are flat and lifeless.
Has this happened to anybody else?

I think it's important to note that although HDR may be selected (like in my case), it may not necessarily work. You'll know if it's worked for sure when the screen brightness automatically sets to maximum. Now, bright parts of the video such as lights will stand out more in contrast to the dark sections, adding overall realism to the picture. I personally think it's great, and can't wait to get an HDR OLED TV.
