[Q] Stereo Video Recording in AOSP - Verizon HTC One (M7)

Hey, guys,
I prefer AOSP over Sense in general, but the one area that still gets me is the Sense Camera app. When I record video in the Sense Camera, it has stereo audio, but the AOSP camera only has mono audio when I do the same thing. Is there any way to get stereo audio in AOSP via the default camera app or otherwise?
Thanks!

I'm not sure but there's a rom that has a mostly AOSP experience while still preserving Sense and it's called UnSense, so you might wanna check that out here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2582066

Yeah, I've messed around with that some. I like it, but I was just wondering if a video app would enable the stereo without resorting to a Sense/AOSP hybrid. Thanks, though!

Probably not because stereo recording is probably a feature of the sense camera.

[Q] Dolby Mobile for Droid Incredible

I searched all over the forum for anyone who know how to install Dolby Mobile on the Droid Incredible. I have listened to sample of the sound difference and it is extremely better with Dolby.
Anyone know how to get Dolby Mobile for the Incredible.
Is this what the hd rom by id has? I wonder...

The HTC Desire has Dolby Mobile. Someone has to be able to build it in a ROM.
yeah, I'm just wondering if it hasn't already been done. People are going on and on about the improved speaker and headpiece volumes on the HD Sense ROM by IncredibleDoes. Maybe it's the Dolby portion that is doing that. If so, then your question is answered. Maybe you should check out that ROM and see what you think. I haven't tried it yet.
I did see that ROM, however I don't know if it has Dolby Mobile or not. But i am a little skeptical to use it because the cam and video does not work yet.
Is this the DSP Manager in Uncommon Sense?
I'm running the Uncommon Sense ROM and it has a DSP Manager app that lets me adjust sound profiles for Bluetooth, Speaker and Handset. It has an EQ, the ability to turn on and off dynamic compression, and select a room type. I don't see any Dolby references in it, but it does make the sound better.
Cool, i will try that ROM. Does the cam and video work in the ROM you are using?
Camera and video work well.

Yep. You can even choose whether to use the Incredible camera or the Evo camera.
i was looking at the Uncommon ROM and it looks pretty basic.
Any bugs that you know of.

Yeah, I've noticed that. The Cam issue keeps me away from it, though. I'm content with Virtuous with the IncREDible Theme. I've got DSP manager too and it helps A LOT. The bluetooth EQ is janked, though.
Still I'm curious about the Dolby aspect. I've tried to figure out what it really adds besides better bass response. That mixed with DSP Manager might be a hit. Now if only they could get Pro Logic II decoding!

I am running Uncommon1.1 and I do not have any bugs or issues. This is a very good rom.

Looking for a new camera app

Hey, I've been running CM7 RC4 and it is great, the only thing I don't like is the camera app. I have Vingette, so I'm fine with taking pictures, but I've been trying to find a better app to record video. So any recommendations would be great, I would prefer it to be a free app, but don't mind paying for one.
Thanks.
there are currently no 3rd party video recording apps.
the only choice is the the video function that is built into your rom (either sense or AOSP, respectively).
Sorry.

Audio recording in MONO with all AOSP roms

Hi guys, I would like to report a bug that has been spotted on all AOSP roms from 4.2.2 till 4.4.2 so far. Using any AOSP based rom (Probam, CM, Omnirom etc) when recording a video it turned up to have the audio recorded only for the right channel (you can hear that by playing the video in a PC o trough headphones). The weird thing is that it doesn't happen if insteat of using the rear camera you record a video by using the front facing one: in that case the audio will be stereo!! That's pretty weird and I am wondering if there is a fix for this (maybe a different kernel or app).
Would be awesome if someone report it to developers, in case they aren't aware of that. Thanks
Any update on this? I'm on Paranoid Android 4.4.2 latest and still see this issue? Any workarounds would be great to hear.

AOSP Based ROM with great audio recording quality ??

Hi there...
I would like to use some AOSP based ROM on my LG G3 D855, but I've already tested many, and all of them have a poor audio recording quality.
On the video recording, the audio is pretty acceptable, but if you try to record any music playing at a high volume with some bass (on shows / parties), you will get a distorted and clipped audio.
When recording audio through WhatsApp (or any other audio recording app) the situation is even worst, even voice-only recordings have a really bad quality and noise.
With Stock-based ROMs, none of this problem happens, I can record songs with high volume even when using Whatsapp and it doesnt sound creepy.
So, is there any ROM with a audio comparable to the official-based ROMs?
Thanks in advance... Im really seaching for it. :crying:
PS: I pretend to record a song with both stock and aosp roms, and share the audio here so you can compare it by yourself.
Bump
I have the same issue and I was wondering if there's any solution. Microphone quality is absolutely terrible! My daily driver is Ressurection Remix.

I'm having the same problem on XenonHD. I can't understand what the other guy is saying after recording calls.
This issue is related to stock roms having proper drivers (or framework) to record sound. AOSP does not have access to this so it is noisy. This alone is the only reason I'm still on stock based rom. I really want to use AOSP, but cannot without proper call recording.

How to use 3.5 mm jack's external microphone to record audio?

I'm trying to use an external mic to record audio at better quality but every app uses the phone's built-in mic for recording. I've tried the following apps.
Stock recorder of OnePlus
Audio recorder by sony
Easy voice recorder
None of these recorder have any separate option to choose external mic attached via 3.5 mm jack. Please help.

I've been able to use an external microphone for recording video with Ooen Camera apk. It sucks though, because you lose the stock features of the in built camera and being able to utilize the extra camera on the rear. I don't know what OnePlus was thinking. A very large majority of people purchasing from them are tech heads (as OnePlus isn't a popular or well known device like Samsung, Pixel and others) and people like me who have YouTube channels and will be using the camera for video content.
They need to address this and hopefully this is fixed in the Plus 6t... Looks like that will be the next OnePlus,I add to my channel's stable of devices.
