Good day everyone!
I was wondering if it's possible to change the framerate of our Xperia ZL to record video at 24fps.
I used to own an Xperia Mini Pro and what i did was to edit the media_profiles.xml file located on system/etc
but when i tried that on my ZL it did't work i got an error message that said "Camera not available"
I also tried using some apps like Camerapro and LG camera from the market but that didn't work either.
Does anybody know a way to modify the frame rate to record video at 24fps? or about an app that can do this?
Thanks a lot!

why would you like to lower the framrate of the videos?

I would like to have the option. It gives the video a movie like effect 'cause movies are filmed with that frame rate

You won't see the difference between 24 and 25. 24 is just helpful if you want to combine your footage with other material in a 24 fps editing project in your editing software.

Hi
I own the Xperia Play R800 and since as far back as i remember whenever i record a video the file itself is humungous
For example a 20s video is 19.3MB big!
Even though i use the highest video quality how is it possible for the file to be so large?
Does anyone else share this problem?
Is there a way to reduce the file size without necessarily reducing the quality?
I use the "Camera Mod" to film but i don't think that changes anything
Whenever i want to send a video via the application WhatsApp i can't send a file longer than 15s as this would be larger than 15MB and that is the limit for that application.
How come my video files a 1s/1MB?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, it's devouring my memory.
thankyou thankyou thankyou :cyclops:
Thats not a problem. Because your recording either in 480p (2.3.3 firmware) or 720p (2.3.4 firmware) the higher pixels the more storage it takes. Besides thats normal video sizes your posting. If you want to correct this problem simply buy a bigger sd card.

thanks, but if that is the case how come no other phone has such big files.
Many of my friends have the Iphone 4 which i believe has higher video quality than the Xperia Play but much smaller video files

They probably have some type of compression

Besides reducing the quality of the video is there any application or anything i can do to reduce the video file size?
Compression is still reducing quality. If your asking if there a application that reduces video recording while filming on the phone then no. But you can move your recorded videos to a pc and compress it there and move back to the sd card then yes.

ok yep that's what i've done.
thanks for the help & info, appreciate it :cyclops:
Any chance someone could help me out.
I've tried the camera settings High (30 m), Low (30 m) and YouTube (High 10m) on my 'Camera Mod' app and either way the video files seem to be the same size. I'm assuming this as with either settings i can only send 15s of video via WhatsApp before it tells me "Size limit reached".
Am i doing it wrong? Am i changing the wrong settings?
I want to reduce the video quality & size.
Thankssss
I dont think u can change the size. But just curious, where exactly the default storage u set for the vid to be?? Phone or sdcrd???

I've captured some slow motion video on the G3, but when I try to export it anywhere, or play it in another player it just speeds up to normal speed.
Surely this can't be right. It should save the video to be played exactly how you see it in the native player on any other device.
Does anybody know how to get it to stay as slow motion even after you've exported it, or save it as seen in slow motion?
To let you know I have done a search for this issue within xda, and it doesn't show any related threads. Has nobody experienced this issue?

Hi,
Your Video is fine. Just use a Player like VLC and reduce the playback speed.
Thats how slomo works!

Thanks, I thought it would be better if it actually slowed the footage down as a saved file (like on the Xperia Z2), then at least you could post it to a shared website and show off your creation. Is there no way to do that?

Check the PlayStore - there must be an app for that Good Luck! If you find something, share it!
The HTC One (M8), Sony Z2 and iPhones have a video editor that can slow down parts of a slow motion video, while keeping the rest of it at normal speed.
Has anybody found a similar app on the Play Store?
Or even, has anybody managed to make the Sony or HTC app work on other devices like the G3?
EDIT: The Sony Z2 app is called "Timeshift Video".
Im looking for this too.
Its crazy - shows slowmo video in gallery app - but with normal speed in Photos app
What are you guys taking slow motion video of anyway bouncy boobs lol
It doesn't matter what you take a slomo video of, the point is that the phone doesn't let you save the movie in a way that can be played in other devices. Surely it should do that.
I've seen a few slomo videos on YouTube made on the LG G3, how have they done that, if you can't actually save the video as the slowmotion version?
Surely, you'd want to show off various or interesting slomo videos to friends and family, so there must be a way to do it. I've looked for an app, but surely it should be native on the phone?
e.g. on my old HTC EVO 3D, the 3d videos were stored as 3D to see on a 3D TV for example if saved on a USB. Surely if you save the SloMo video to a USB you should be able to see the video in its slow version on a TV. Is this something that LG overlooked, or is there something that we're all missing on the phone?
The recorded video file is ~120 fps:
Frame rate mode : Variable
Frame rate : 119.659 fps
Minimum frame rate : 116.732 fps
Maximum frame rate : 122.783 fps
To see it in slow motion you would have to set it as 30 fps on a computer and save it again. No need to recompress it or anything (so no quality drop at all) but you need this extra step to play it back on a device where you cannot manually slow it down.

Thanks for that info, I wish thought that the phone natively did that, so there was no need for that extra step, I think LG are missing a trick there.
@Bad4ss
Hi, any news how to keep slow motoion afer rec?

The most simple way I know is to use mkvtoolnix (free, open source and works on windows/linux/mac)
Open the GUI, drag or add the file you want to work on, select the video track, go to format specific options and select your desired fps. Then press "start muxing".

Thanks; upgraded from 6.2 to 7.1 and mixed away. Video worked well but audio didn't seem to work out well
When I shot something in slomo on my Galaxy S4 the resulting video was slomo in all viewing apps or when uploade to facebook or youtube. only being able to view it in slomo in the LG gallery app is dumb. As much as they advertise the G3 as a great photo device the camera app actually sucks balls. Samsungs camera app is light years better and IOSs blows them both out. It still baffles me that android has no tap exposure and lock capability....
Is there an app that will save the lg g3 recorded slow mo videos and directly share them so everyone can see the videos in slow mo?
When uploading videos in youtube you get an option to increase or decrease default video playback speed.

Hi. Does anybody know why HTC doesn´t support 1080p 60 fps video recording? Is it software or hardware related? If it´s software related, is there any possibility to record video in 1080p @ 60fps?

Hardware is definitely capable. Lots of apps in play store will record at 1080/60fps. I haven't tried any, I'll leave that to you.

Hey, I am also interested in this topic. In fact the only thing holding me back getting a 10 is the question if it is able to record 60hz at least with an after market app. So could anybody who already owns one try this please?
Open Camera doesn't work
Tested Open Camera from the play store. You can set the framerate to 60 fps but it will still record in 29.97 fps.
I was searching for some mods for this phone (Samsung Galaxy a30s EU DISTRIBUTION) to get 50 or 60 fps video recording working. Ideally 1080p, but 720p is also fine. I didn't find anything working. I looked into the slow motion mode, and on the preview, I saw 720p60fps. So it must be possible to do it in normal speed. Any ideas? Thanks. PS: I was able to do it on my old 12MP redmi note 4, so it must be possible on this guy.
What do you mean 60fps ??? On video recording ????

I See that the normal camera from Samsung does 30fps at 1080p and 720p. I have tested a few apps that might support 60fps at 720p or 1080p. But no luck i have tried quite a few apps. Either the app stops working. Or it gives you a error that 60fps is not supported. I have tried 5 diffrent versions of Google Camera Modded. Open Camera ( This app says its not supported cause you can select at which fps to shoot at) and MX camera which also just allowed me to to shoot at 30fps only (Matter in fact it shot at 21 fps not 30fps)
Ok nvm I will just buy a GoPro
HedgeCam maxed out at 1440x1080 60fps. You can also change the bitrate but I haven't compared the quality yet.

Can you tell me your exact settings? I downloaded the official hedgecam 2 from the play store, set 1440x1080 and 60 fps, frame rate not supported. If I enabled camera api 2, it just records it on 30 fps. Can you tell me the exact settings of your cam? Thanks in advance.

It works, even the high action scenes where the bitrate jumps up to 50mbps, no stuttering.

Not much to show from a screenshot since neither MX Player nor VLC show real-time stats like the PC version of those apps. I just went to jell.yfish.us and grabbed one of their test bitrate files. I haven't monitored the CPU temps though, not sure how long it'll stay within spec.
Any suggestions on an Android player app that displays all that in real-time?
If you don't mind oversharpening on media content then get this phone.
btw. Does anybody know a fix for that?
