Hi guys,
I recently bought an LG G4, received it yesterday and got the update to Marshmallow pretty fast.
Today I was experimenting with the camera and I have to say, the picture quality is gorgeous, the videos however are a different story. The 1080p clips are fine but when I record in 4k the framerate for some reason is very low (around 20fps) wich causes terrible videos.
I don't see any option in the camera settings to change the framerate of the video.
Can anyone help?
Thank you in advance,
MoraisGT
---------------------------------------------------------------
Edit: I am really sorry guys, it turns out that there is nothing wrong with the camera. Whenever I open a 4k video recorded with the G4 on my pc the framerate is indeed horrible, but if I skip the video forward a bit it becomes normal. There isn't a problem with the device, just the software on my pc.
Can a moderator delete this thread?
Again I am really sorry

Glad to hear all is ok
Until a moderator will do that maybe you can just change the name of the topic to add something like [False Alarm, not a problem] or something similar Just my 2c

Hi,
Now I know the TP2 is not a digicam ... But can anyone share any tips on how to get the best out of the TP2 for video recording.
Some thoughts I have include:
1) Fast SD card
2) 3rd party video software???
3) Improving fps from 12.5. I guess reducing resolution..??
However I appreciate the TP2 is a phone .... but with some jolly useful extras.
Thanks,
Sam
i havent try but maybe apps like coolcamera?
Hi guys
A quick one. When recording with the touch pro 2 is there a black border to the right side of the picture you are recording? that means the picture you are recording doesnt fill the screen. I just noticed this tonite and i dont think this has always been the case
since I posted my question over 30 people have read it but have just moved along without helping. This isnt a difficult question and all someone has to do is pick up their phone, launch the camera and click on video recording to see if the black border exists. This should not even take you a minute but people just read and move on. If I start a new thread asking my specific question, you,ll get some id1ots talking rubbish about using the search function. well I have and it doesnt return any results for my query. So is there any sensible person out there willing to check this out for me?

Hi Lombardo8,
Yes, there is black strip on the right side of the screen but ONLY when you save video. When you play this video it is over full screen.
Sorry for my "English".

Thank you very much Nino. Have a nice day
12.5 fps? Probably for videos meant as video messages (eg vzw flix mms). But with Mp4 I had 15-20 fps even in 640x480. Best advice. use MP4 video. Stay away from H.264 because that is CPU heavy and results in blocky looking video. Black border on the right side? It only means you are not recording in widescreen mode and does not show up in playback. Select the widescreen option in advanced options and border is gone. Not sure if this will work on video, but it does on pics.
I'm not all too thrilled with CoolCamera. First, it's buggy as hell. Second, it's not free. And third, it doesn't work on all devices. I tried it on my Q9M about a year ago. Hasn't been updated since then. Since the Q9m has a crappy camera, I wanted more options. Unfortunately this program didn't help, as the options didn't work on that phone. The camera on my TP2, different story. Very advanced compared to the Q's crappy setup. Don't even want to try CoolCamera on this thinking it might be worse off than factory HtcCamera. There have to be better options then that program (CoolCam). The developer of that app has focused on his webcam app instead.
How did you get your camera to record at 640x480 my Tilt2 doesnt seem to have that option
I have noticed when I am in the video recorder and switch to 1920x1080 resolution I notice the video zooms in to around 2x and says "zooming is not allowed in full HD" when I try to zoom out. This causes the recorded video to look like crap and noticeably lower quality than the 720p videos I record, especially on a pc..
Does anyone know why this is, if anyone else is having the same problem and if there is any way to fix it?
I can confirm I see the same thing.

Same here!
I got some good results with my videos, but only when i wasn't trying to shoot something up close.
I am really disappointed 1080p was one of the big things I was looking forward to with the GS2 and now I find that it's a lower quality video than the 720p... Hopefully someone has a fix or this is an issue Samsung is working on.
Hey all! I have a quick question to ask everyone. I make YouTube videos using Screencast Video Recorder and I noticed after getting a new phone, the Note 2 for Sprint, that my videos are pixelated? For example when I'm recording and I am not doing anything on the screen and just explaining things, the picture quality in that part of the video is sharp and smooth looking. But when I am moving around and opening things while recording, or playing games, the video gets blocky and the quality is just ruined. I had no problems with this running on my EVO 3D running at 25fps. So if anyone can help out on how to reduce the bad quality and have a smoother video that would be greatly appreciated.
My current settings for Screencast are: High video res, FPS: 25 (which is why I don't see why the video should be blocky looking since even the EVO 3D can handle that and the benchmarks say it can record in 40fps.)
I am wondering about actual phone settings that might help me out. Since I'm running 4.1.2 I have to have Force GPU rendering on in the dev options as well as Disable hardware overlays. I was wondering if turning power saving mode on would help but only have screen power saving check since that lowers the actual screen frame rate maybe that will work?
Since I can't post links yet, search BambiTyer on YouTube. Or /BambiTyler.
*scroll down to recent uploads, the uploads of Minecraft and "Is getting an LTE device worth it?" are two videos recorded with the Note 2.*

So guys i have the g3 from 3 months and it's an immpressive device, but i'm despointed
With the videos that it captures! I don't know why they're so noisy and unclear? So i rooted my device and installed a camera mod that makes the video's bitrate higher and it seem that it does nothing with video quality it just gave me the 60fps mode and nothing else!
So guys i hope that you help me because i love this phone so much and i don't want to leave it.
Hi. i just purchased a note 8 pro, for the most part satisfied, however i noticed something when i record 4k videos using the stock camera app. basically the phone cant keep up with the fast camera movements. im not sure if there is a term for this problem, but you can see it in the video below, when i move the phone, the change in the display cannot keep up with the movement. i have to wait for the camera to update and its annoying.. is there a way to fix this, or is it a hardware limitation?
