my friend has the Sony Xperia Z2 and the viewfinder (camera preview screen) is pretty smooth, it's like 60fps but when I look at mine Lg G3 with 3gb ram it looks 30fps. btw both phone where at the same light condition.
given that the camera is not the same, it could be a simple hardware difference. could be the camera app at fault. could be a difference in recording settings. could be anything, the info provided is less than helpful.

Considering this thread exists I think 30fps in the rom stock without mods.

I think what he meant is when looking at the screen when the camera is open , the framerate when panning around is not smooth, not the actual video recording itself .
@screwyluie I think you are right. But I think that the could have the same hardware. But I hope somebody can mod it.
@crash4fun I have that mod but 60fps is only when recording and I meant 60fps in the live preview screen.
@joejoe23 Yes thank you that's what I meant

Yup, its 6 to 30 fps in preview screen.
Check out /system/etc/camera_config.xml. Especially, keys "camera_preview_fps_range_rear" and 5 following keys. Modifying the second, "maximum" value doesn't have any effect even in bright lit environment. You may try modding the lower bound, however no one knows what effect this would have.

huhmm good find
I think it will affect the battery nothing more. I really want to test it now but I need my phone.
We need to contact @Hendrickson the guy who made this mod: "[MOD] Camera mod v2. Improve 4K 2160p birate, 1080p 60fps and camera compression" to test this

Well, i once again changed maxfps to 60 in every condition, and there is some improvement in fps in bright light. It's not as smooth as it should be (constant 60 in viewfinder) but it is good enough. I guess we can try upping the lower bound to 30 or 60, this may help.

no force closes yet. Will try to record 4k video with 50mb bitrate for all 5 mins, to see if phone will overheat/fail to record video because of heightened cpu/gpu load.
I edited it on-phone, using jota text editor.
15 mins later...
My 4k, 60 fps, 50 mbits video was recorded just fine
I think that once you are shooting video, fps of the preview screen is locked to video's fps, so that "test" may have been totally useless... Anyway, things are looking good. No force close, video/photos are doing just fine, and preview is somewhat snappier.

I'll record one sample video in "dark and noizy" conditions (it's 00h in Moscow, so it'll be quite easy), and one in "morning sun" condition's (8h later, after some sleep). Then i'll upload both here
Edit: I finally know why 4k suddenly became 60 fps... It's mx player bug, it shows incorrect values. It's still 50 mbits, though
@YaDrI peeked through the file and saw this:

I tried to edit higher bound of "Night" mode. No noticeable improvement, stll 6 fps. I think that changing the lower bracket is not a good idea, however i will try it later
About meaning of "ia" parameter... No clue, will have to dig into documentation later.
The last one must be for FOCUS_MODE_CONTINUOUS.
EDIT 1: Good, now we know what "ia" is

Right now i'm doing some research to make some improvements on Camera and Audio to our device.
Things i've done so far:
Code:
[LIST]
[*][COLOR="Red"]V2[/COLOR]
[*]Enabled AGC
[*][COLOR="Red"]V1[/COLOR]
[*]Doubled to 320kbps with stereo audio encoding (Recorded videos, whatsapp and probably any other app that record sound will get crystal clear audios, caution with your data usage. Doubled encoding means doubled size)
[*]Doubled to 20 Mbit/sec video encoding 720p
[*]Bumped to 99% JPEG
[/LIST]
To do list:
Force 1080p recording (it has no affect playing with media_profiles.xml yet)
AGC - Automatic Gain Control (if you record something very loud like a concert, the sound will get very ****ed up)
What I know:
Motorola has disabled AGC for some reason I don't know. If you look at audio_effects.conf you'll find some Dolby code and AGC, AEC and NS as commentaries.
AGC, AEC and NS relies on pre_processing and libaudiopreprocessing.so, which wasn't declared on the file in first place.
The sensor has 1080p capabilities (pipeline and everything), since we share the same camera module as Nexus 5. I believe we can fine tune some stuff with the camera apk. For now I want to try this first to later research with libs/drivers.
I've managed to decompress the APK file but i have no idea how to decompile DEX, ARSC and the XML files (are XML compressed/obfuscated? It wasn't readable).
Can someone enlight me over?
Flash at your own risk.
Tested on CM12.1
Stock not tested yet
The audio graphs i've analyzed with and witouth the mod seems that AGC is on(maybe with a very moderated preset). Can someone try to record a video on a very loudly place?

With stock 5.0.2 camera and libs or cm12.1 camera? (I'm on my way to an edm rave party lol jk)
Sent from my Moto G 2014
Great work!
Can someone post some pictures/videos for comparison vs stock?
RAW support for the camera would be amazing as well.
I believe it works from 4.4 KK to 5.0.2 and CM 12.1.
I'll post something to compare with later.
If someone help me to understand and manipulate DEX ARSC and those weird XML i would be very happy
i think it's not possible, but maybe add camera2 api is possible?
Please mention if this mod is for stock rom or it will work on any rom...
I noticed an improvement in the quality of camera friend
Hi all, can confirm this works on stock 5.0.2, no bootloops, audio quality REALLY impressive, as for AGC, I tried screaming into the mic a couple times and there was no audio distortion, I still need to check out the increased video bitrate, but it looks really sweet, thank you, keep up the awesome work, really looking forward to 1080p video working on this device

That's not possble for photos, but the video resolution could theoretically be increased from 720p (aprox. 0.9 Megapixels) to 1080p (2MP).
Is there a way to enable recording with 60 frames per second? I would also like to see some comparison pictures/videos if possible.

Hmmm i don't think so, not without messing with the .so files.
In low light conditions out device records at 15 FPS to increase sensor exposure to compensate the light. In sunny conditions it records at 30.
I've been trying to decompile the lastest moto camera but it seems i can't find some portion of the code. I'm still trying to understand how those stuff works and how Android manage and rely in things.
I'll reserch some more about decompiling/recompiling APK and .so files.
Just a quick update:

Obviously, it doesn't work. My guess is: Sensor DOES support and app detects it, but libs don't.
Here's a logcat while trying to record something. "Cannot start vídeo capture. Another app may be using the mic" is the error.

Guys, I recently received my op3 hoping it would finally have 1080p 60fps video recording in full speed with sound. But, no luck. The Sony imx298 sensor is capable of it according to a PDF I found from Sony. Has anybody had luck with being able to activate that mode.

Does it record audio in highspeed mode?
Could you please try to open the video with the Google Photos app:
On stock OOS 3.2.2, slowmotion videos are treated as high framerate videos
and you can manually set the postion for the slowmotion to start and end just like on the iPhone.
The other areas are played in regular speed. Unfortunately without audio...
Would be great to have both audio and the above method working!

This can be done in google photos and then you can share the video from there, but sadly with no audio.

Seems to be legit, checked it in After Effects and every frame is unique.
Has anyone tried Open Camera to record 60fps at 1080p? I tried this on an Honor 7 (as 60fps doesn't come as standard on that phone) but the results were no better than the standard camera app at 30fps. Wondered if the Sony unit on the OP3 would allow Open Camera to do a better job but can't find video examples of this anywhere.

Stock snapdragon camera in resurrection remix rom
I've just got my xperia yesterday and have now noticed in Facebook when I'm scrolling down my feed when I see a video it's very sharp and pixely. It's driving me mental.. In the YouTube app all the videos I watch are very sharp/pixelated, lower the quality the worse it gets but in full HD 720p 1080p it still looks bad but it's not pixely it's just very sharp.. Dont know how to post pics to show you. I've went through the phones screen setting and tried everything but it's still pixely and sharp it's driving me insane.. Anyone else have the same problem?
It it just me having this problem? Is anyone else having this problem?
I know what you mean. It's a big screen, but I think the PPI is not that high. I also took out an Asus Zenfone 3 Zoom with the Xperia so I could compare both, and the Asus' screen is miles ahead in video and graphics quality. That being said, the Xperia's shine is in it's .5 inch larger screen.

Sometimes the simplest solutions lead to the best results I'm glad i can help.
The issue we're experiencing on this phone with video playback is flash in browser.
Tried with Chrome, Opera, lightning browser, same issue. In-app video playback is decent. Maybe not as good as other Android phones, but still good enough to enjoy.
Flash just doesn't deliver a good experience on this phone. The XA1 Ultra is otherwise nice and good value, just too bad it doesn't deliver good video playback in flash. Probably not a big deal, as flash will hopefully soon be a thing of the past. Haven't tested HTML5 in browser yet.
I see this phone can be rooted, so a custom ROM would probably fix this, but no idea what the camera compatibility would be with custom ROM's on this handset.
On a side note, didn't like the UI of the stock Album app, so installed ported Moto G4 gallery via APK.
Same here. Any fix? Ridicolous happening in Facebook Instagram ecc
It's an easy fix guys. Just turn off image enchancement in display settings
It's off for me. No vivid no enhancement
Hi guys! I have been able to record 4k/60fps with my Poco f3 with gcam mod and using forced 4k/60fps. So i think this phone has imx586 instead of imx582.
im pretty sure even if on the gcam of your F3 you have the ption 4k 60fps its still recording at 30 fps(and the stabilisation always trick you to think you have high fps)

It is real 4k/60fps when analyzing the metadata (And there isn't any stabilisation)
Hi, I also want to test this, when I get my Poco F3. Can you post which gcam mod exactly you use?
I tried that and no difference in real fps when you look at video it is still jerky...
Make longer video you will see 35fps average and 50mb/s like stock app on 30fps...
Try uploading a sample clip? I think the IMX582 4k60 is locked in hardware.

I made a few test videos with different settings: https://mega.nz/folder/zVljkA4S#IIvT6jlU-Xy0MdUYhGzOAA
The occasional skips are because of the notebook not the camera. It looks like the gcam 4k 30fps is only 30mbit/s and 4k 60 is around 50mbit/s like stock 4k 30fps.
If you go frame by frame you can clearly see that the 60fps does have more frames.
I also noticed that the stock cam is more zoomed in than the gcam (except for 1080p 60fps).

Very interesting, which gcam did you use? I'd like to try it out myself. 4k60 does look better than 1080p60 and about the same smoothness too. The reason why it's more zoomed in in stock camera is because of EIS, gcam usually has worse EIS than stock camera but it appears as you have disabled EIS in gcam.

The reason why it's more zoomed in in stock camera is because of EIS, gcam usually has worse EIS than stock camera but it appears as you have disabled EIS in gcam.

I used this gcam: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-bsg/f/dl16/
And yes, I used EIS on the standard setting.
Has anyone managed to turn on image stabilization in GCAM? I tested several versions. I was able to turn on 60fps in 4K. However, EIS does not run in a rare resolution. The corresponding option in GCAM is of course enabled.

I always use the latest version of BSG. I really care about stabilization of 60 fps. https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-bsg/
I also tried the URNYX version https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/changelog1500/
Image stabilization does not work in any of these versions. I have global MIUI 12.0.5

I would also recommend the latest version. The version I linked was just what I had installed when I made the test.
For BSG cams the versions _snap _MGC _ENG... are afaik only different package names. That will allow you to install multiple gcams at the same time. So it doesn't really matter which of these you use.
It actually seems to be working.
I didnt saw any codec stuf. But was filming the ground and the the rocks while walking and changing between 30 and 60 and was night and day. Way smoother

Huh it actually works, there is no EIS on the 60fps options I tried in gcam. Sad but the fact that 4k60 is possible is great news.
I have very good news. I spent a few hours "playing" with Gcam. I was able to turn on stabilization at 60 fps in FHD and 4K resolutions - main camera. I made a few more improvements for better photo quality. If you want to enjoy video stabilization:
1. Install the latest version of BSG. I used this: https://1-dontsharethislink.celsoazevedo.com/file/filesc/MGC_8.1.101_A9_GVy_ENG.apk
2. Change Gcam settings with my file arkadia_Gcam_settings_ver2.xml
Sample photos and video with my settings. Of course, to see them in original quality, you need to download them to your computer.

Hi everyone,
I got mi pad 5 in india few says back. And I'm facing below issue whenever I'm watching dark scene on Netflix or YouTube, even though my tablet brightness is max still that scene is very much dark that barely can see faces of characters. I'm not a tech guy but i know I've spent 23k on this for watching movies or tv shows and because of this issue I'm really frustrated.
Can anyone please help to how to resolve? or is this pad fault? Is it a software bug or hardware bug? or xiomi will fix this in upcoming updates?
Please help me here.
Screen comparing of same scene from lenovo tablet and mi pad 5(in white case with dark screen)

Change the color scheme to standard, it helps a little with the contrast, another fix I didn't find, very frustrating as well with the hdr and dolby vision support you see very bad dark scenes

Yes sir, I've tried this but still not as expected.
Do you know is this a software bug or hardware? Means is it better to wait for xiomi to fix or to replace tab with other?

I don't think it will be fix, the tablet it's already on the market for almost a year and its not fixed, from what I saw if you have a download movie and you watch it with km player or mx player and choose the colours scheme to standard it's ok'ish but in Netflix app is terrible in dark scenes
you get what you pay for folks, it ain't no Ipad / Samsung Tab quality hence the low price tag
If you use a player which you can control the brightness and the contrast you will have better results, so that means the tablet is capable of better results
I wish HDR - Dolby could be deactivated. But it's impossible, even with root.
Do you have auto brightness turned on or off? Is this HDR content on Netflix?

We must push feedback
Yes the brightness is a little low so I have to watch Netflix in a dark room!
SDR content is fine for me, so definetly HDR/Dolby Vision is the reason
you can try downgrading your netflix plan to Standard which removes HDR/Dolby Vision support
but of course this may not be practical for you
another solution is to use Kodi + Netflix plugin, it has the ability to disable HDR/Dolby Vision even if you are on a premium plan
It's a shame because the screen is actually really good, I don't think its a hardware problem
But I also doubt it will be changed/fixed, maybe if we throw enough report at them
So the fix for this would be to go to special features and then sidebar inside which you have a video toolkit
Enable it for Netflix
And then whilst playing Netflix videos open the sidebar and enable the vision booster option in the sidebar if it shows
this issue has been reported to the official xiaomi forums
feel free to write a reply there that you have the same issue, so it gets more attention from xiaomi
also you can report it on your device from settings -> feedback and provide the Report Id to the feedback team at the forum

I use this apk to watch netflix in hd without hdr. https://mega.nz/file/kVgDFARC#rA6ASZB-cR65_t-PlHHUwV-6VobbEBc-dEMniK563cI
It from a post in galaxy s2 forum to active hd in unsupported l1 device.
The Display are to dark for HDR Content. 500 nits are not enough

I tried this. Enabled video toolkit for Netflix and selected "Outdoor" as style. The dark scenes became immediately much brighter
But sadly we don't have a fix for custom roms
If anyone has any inputs on this then pls share
