Snapchat video fix? - T-Mobile HTC One (M8)

I recently purchased the HTC One M8 after having the iPhone 5s, the only complain I have right now is that recording videos on snapchat sucks on this phone. When I record videos it gets all choppy and pixelated. Does anyone know a way to make the video recording better on snapchat?

One X camera app/interface on sgs3?

Wondered if there are any apps that are like the one x stock camera interface? Loved the one touch feature to capture video etc.. Just find it much better than my sgs3 stock interface.
Edit, also miss the option to capture a picture when viewing a video..

anyone?
Capturing a pic whilst videoing works fine on mine, full stock...
EDIT - you mean watching video whilst capturing a pic? Can't say I've tried or had the need to

yes, capturing a pic while videoing works just fine.
but i miss the function of the HOX to capture a picture inside a previously recorded video. got some sweet pics that way, capturing a jump etc..
also, with the HOX it was only 1 click to start filming.
Nope its tied in with Sense so you'll need the Sense framework

Androvid Pro does screen grabs during video playback.

GNex Feature

Would love to see the HTC One X camera feature somehow implemented in our Gnex, the ability to take a picture while recording a video. Seems pretty cool!
We've always had that. Tap your previously taken picture while recording and it'll take another.

Actually don't you tap the "LiveView" while recording to take a still?

This feature has been there since ICS on the GNex. Tap the screen while recording video and it takes a still.
Ye this was actually on the GN first just tab the screen while recording and you are done.
Works much better on the one x and s3 though. I.e. no stutter like I get with my nexus.

That's because the Hardware on those phone are a little better.
I've never had any lag issues. I just touch the screen while recording and BAM! Still photo taken. No lag or stutter at all. Paranoid Android JB...

App for getting still pics from video?

Does anyone know an app that will let you pull pics from video the way the HTC One X does? I'm not talking about taking stills while recording, but afterward when viewing.

I remember reading a review before I bought my S3 that said it had that same feature as the One X, I was sad to find it didn't exist on the phone. Would love to find something to do this.
Try frame grabber it cost money but works good

The stock camera well do this. Look above the record button for the vid cam, should be a slightly smaller camera button. That one will take pics while shooting video.

I don't beleive this is what the person is asking about. In a commercial for HTC, there is someone capturing still pictures from a video playback, not while actually recording.

Really dark slow motion video

..
How are you even able to shoot in SlowMotion after the Sense 5 update? I cant even do that
Removing the slowmotion on Sense 5 for the HOX was the worst thing to do

I don't know if this is the right place for this but ever since the update to sense 5 I've been getting very dark video when trying to do slowmotion I'm positive it wasn't this dark on sense 4, is everyone else getting this?

thats just what happens with slo-mo i would go all scientific but that will takee too long... if you record at a lower resolution it should make it brighter

is the hox actually increasing the shutter speed for the increased fps or is it software based that plays back the video at a lower fps?
Never been a fan of the slow motion feature on phones, no where near the fps you need for real smooth videos.

It's normal that on slow motion you have darker video than normal, i can't explain but that's it. Try with google

HTC One M8 Camera App Modification?

The HTC One X had a pretty good camera for the time, but there was a mod to the camera app which was the HQ Camera Mod for HTC One X by NODO-GT. It enhanced the image and video quality quite a bit by reducing compression and size limitations etc. Maybe a mod like that is possible on the HTC One, just to unlock the potential of the camera. Also, the camera tends to overexpose in the stock app, not much in other apps though, so maybe that could be fixed with software too. Just a thought but would it be possible?

We don't really need a MOD since we have manual control. If something is too exposed... Turn exposure down.

Dont know if we dont need One... The good thing about that mod was the reduced compression and upped bitrate. lets see what someone with knowledge says about m8 compression.
Gesendet von meinem HTC One_M8 mit Tapatalk
I agree. Being able to manually control exposures is nice but it makes a lot more sense to be able to have higher quality images taken without having to do so...
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using xda app-developers app
One thing I would like to see that we do not have any control of right now is image sharpening control, especially on the video camera function. Image sharpening was really out of control on the M7 and they have certainly improved it on the M8, but I still don't like how high the sharpening level is.
I would love it if somehow someone could make an Xposed module that lets us adjust the sharpening levels on the native HTC camera app.
Agreed something like that would be awesome.....

There's sharpening in the settings..unless you're talking about some other form of sharpening that I'm unaware of...not sure why my screenshot ended up sideways...
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using xda app-developers app
The reason for the one x camera mod was because the one x compressed its images and videos horribly. The m8 record at 20mbps so the video quality is pretty much maxed for 1080p, images are about 3mb for 4mp which would be almost if not completely uncompressed.
