[Solved] Video camera not showing full resolution

When I go into video recording mode, the max resolution is displays is 1280x720 even though this phone supports 1080p. I checked the hardware with software info apps and the camera is supposed to be able to capture 1080p as well. Is this a hardware or software problem? Anyone else not able to record video in 1080p?

not quite.....i think SGS Glide only has 720p....
there is a disclaimer at the bottom, but after reading a few reviews of the device, everything says 720p, no 1080p.

That's weird because the video camera is reported to support up to 1080p in apps like Elixir and I vaguely remember rogers showing 1080p recording unless it's been changed now.

In fact, it was changed, just like the NFC, crap, no 1080p video recording, no NFC, what the f*ck was Samsung thinking ?

[Q] Youtube videos in HD

Hi
I was wondering is there a way or an app to watch youtube videos in 720p, not just HQ? Thanks.

I think it also has something to do with the quality of the video. If the quality is low, the video wont have a HD option.
Hope this helps.

It's not the video, I think. I have ogYoutube and official Youtube apps. Same thing with both of them. I have H+ connection btw.
I saw a tweak in custom rom to make youtube videos play in hd. Is there a way to do this with mobile data connection too?

[Q] Watching Videos On YouTube

Hi guys, I'm sorry if there is any solution for this problem into the forum, but I didn't find it.
What can I do to solve the problem with watching videos on Youtube. I mean, they are seeing too bad, pixelated with a very low quality and that's annoying
BTW, I'm using 4.2.2 stock rom.
Hope you can help me.

Maybe your internet connection? Is it unstable or slow?
Low screen resolution (only 480x800) means you're limited to 480p or lower, because more than that you can't tell the difference... of course resolution is not everything, there is also codec and video bitrate. A 1080p with low bitrate may look more pixelated than a 480p with a slightly higher bitrate.

I am facing this problem in CM 11(4.4.2) too. You are on stock 4.2.2 then it is possible that bug is in Youtube App.
I am using Tubemate to watch videos from youtube.
Attaching Samples from both Apps. See the diffrence for same video.Same quality (720P).

They're not the same quality. HQ is not the same as HD. HQ in this device is the highest resolution the screen and GPU can render (480p). When you turn off the HQ button then it will scale automatically to your internet speed (144p, 240p, or 360p). 720p is considered HD, just like 1080p.

Thanks for clarification buddy.You are right because I tried to play that video in 480P mode in tubemate and it came up with "not supported".
That means it is pixelating due to downscale/upscaling to 800 X 480 . NOT A BUG.:good:

The YouTube app is displaying videos on 4.2.2 GPU libs in crap quality
Thats why even CM11 and all KitKat ROMs have the same prob

Ok.
Thank u all about the information, now I'm very clear about the problem.
BTW, I'm using Instatube and works fine.

Try see vídeos in Browser its more clear and good the app its really really BAD

Just install the old youtube apk ver 4.5.17 ... it will solve your problem
Just keep in mind ( dont allow play store to update the youtube app to new ver or else u will again see pixelated video).

YouTube 4K video?

I don't see an option to watch 4k videos on YouTube, I can only see 720P and nothing higher than that. Does anyone know if there is trick to it? Any help will be much appreciated.

Yes, I'm on the same boat as you. Apparently it's only the Android version of YouTube. The iOS version displays 1080p. Hoping Google fixed the issue as the Nexus 6 and 9 release is close.

The screen can only handle 1440p so 4k YouTube streaming won't make much a difference really. But since I have not done so myself.. Could be wrong. But you are right 720p is our max atm.. Bummer
posted via my Obsidian VZW Note 4

I've been trying to figure out how to play 1440p videos ..YouTube had a apk for it but removed it..Can anyone confirm 1440p is working?
Edit: And I can also just see 720p and below

To make it stick at 1440 you start playing the video then go to settings, quality, click 1440, start the video over.. might have to do it 6 times until you get the hang of it. Thanks

help needed please

hello guys I don't know what I've done but I only have 720p now when I go on you tube it only shows 720 p it used to show 1080 and 1080 hdr is there any other settings to get it back I don't know what I've done I have it set to fhd+ , I must of touched something I don't want to restore lol I deleted a few Chinese apps that's all I've done . heres pics of settings

so I changed screen resolution to hd+720p and took a screenshot it shows 720p
I then changed it to fhd+1080p took another screenshot and it shows 1080 as in pics , so my device screen is set properly to 1080p but somehow YouTube only posts in 720? I've uninstalled YouTube and it's still the same any ideas anyone ,,I loved to show off my screen on YouTube hd videos? it used to work

it must be YouTube has they been any updates I checked with a resolution checker and it's 1080p FHD+ when set and 720p when set to hd+
is there any other video settings I can check I didn't think I was a noob I usually sort stuff out

so back again lol when I watch my own videos on YouTube they are 1080p when I watch other people's videos it only goes to Max 720? very strange... I've always used same 4k content to show off my screen at 1080 so it's not the vids

Not sure what's the issue but mine can view in 1080p. Maybe it's really the video?
