Can this phone record video at 1080p60? - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

GSM Arena says it can. But if I choose 'Fast HD' option, the resolution is fixed at 720p. If I choose slow motion, the resolution changes to 768x432. 'Normal' mode is 1080p30.

I think 1080p30 with the "normal" preset is the best you can get with the phone. I'm also looking for 1080p60 but it seems to be unavailible.

Enable VGA video rec on Tilt2?(works on Pure)

'If you didnt know, AT&T disabled VGA video rec on the Pure, and Tilt2 while other service providers have it enabled. Anyways I think theres a way to get it enabled on the Tilt2 because I got it working on my Pure.
Heres the thread I made: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=729
What I did was I installed "BsbTweaks 1.6" and they have an option that you can enable "hidden camera modes". ONLY ENABLE "hidden camera modes" and make sure you DONT ENABLE "improve MPEG bitrate". If you enabled "improve MPEG bitrate" then Iam afraid its too late, you can turn it back off but you will not be able to record in VGA quality. You will have to hardreset and repeat the process. Anyways after the softreset go into the video camera options and change the format to 3GPP, then you can change resolution to 640x480 VGA.
I do not own a Tilt2 so I don't know if this would work, but because Tilt2 is supposed to have VGA video recording just like the all the other TP2 models, Iam guessing that it should work. It did work for my HTC Pure.
Here are the results:
10 seconds of QVGA MPEG video rec = 400-500kb
10 seconds of VGA 3GPP video rec = 900-1000kb
As you can see, the bitrate has doubled and the quality difference is very noticeable. Please can somebody test this and report back.

With the Tilt 2 being WVGA (480X800) what would the benefit of this be?
He's talking about video recording resolution, not the screen resolution. VGA is the highest resolution our device can record video.
I have both of those tweaks enabled and I can still select VGA resolution when I also select 3GPP format. I haven't done tests if it actually records in VGA, but that's what it says.

[Q] Touch Pro 2 video recording quality?

Recorded a video last night and uploaded it to Youtube but Im not impressed with the quality.
Checking the settings its set to 640x480 (VGA) but the video is awfully blocky. I was under the impression that VGA recording on the TP2 was rather good.
Am I expecting too much from the device or is there something amiss here?
Does noone have any input on this? Is the linked video what I should expect from TP2 video footage?
What settings did you use?
I use Resolution L (320x240) and Capture Format MPEG4
Comes out fine for me.
Capture Format: MPEG4
Resolution: VGA (640x480)
Its blocky both on the Youtube conversion and on the phone itself.
Could it simply be a result of poor recording venue?
If there is low light this will make a difference. But test and see. Try the slightly lower resolution (because then it can cope with better compression and may be less blocky). Would be interested if anyone else has different settings. Cheers.

[Q] Is it possible to do 480p 16:9 (854×480) video?

480p is nominally 640x480 (4:3), but if you look on Youtube, for example, you're not going to find many 480p videos that aren't 16:9, meaning 854x480 (Wikipedia lists that as a valid 480p resolution among several).
Is there a way to either change what 480p is in the camera menu or add a 480p (16:9) selection?
The other resolutions, 720p and 1080p, are 16:9, of course, but I don't always want to squander that much space when the quality isn't needed.
The answer to your question would be no. All of your video would be either sqaushed or stretched.
720 & 1080 are native 16:9 formats. They can be down converted to fit 4:3 and if it was filmed properly it will still look good because the camera man protected 4:3 boundaries while shooting 16:9.
If youve ever seen a 16:9 movie on an old 4:3 tv you will notice that its letter boxed and down converted to fit the screen.
Most consumer and prosumer cameras are 16:9 by default now because all of the displays on the market can show that content properly.
I don't follow your first sentence. I can understand the phone simply not being capable of doing it (I'm still hoping that's not the case, since 3rd-party ROMs often can do wonders), but if it could, then I don't see what the problem would be recording 16:9 480p (854x480). I would even think that it would be more popular than 4:3 480p.
Also, I have to think that 16:9 480p is quite common, since how else can so many 480p videos on Youtube be 16:9 (and these are often videos that top out at 480p, so they're not down-converted from something higher)? Phones are by far the most common video recorders, yet I can't recall the last time I saw vertical black bars on Youtube (what you get with 640x480).

Any good resolution changeing apps?

I love,that g4 can take videos at such high resolution.
I dont want to record in a lower resolution, (i know just use another recorder app for that).
I want to record in high resolution, make a copy of video, and then drop the copy resolution so i can have a high ando low resolution.
Reason is because if i try to play videos i recorded on my g4 on my TV, itsays video resolution not supported. Nd its a smart TV ? also when sharing videos to other phones it has came up as "video unsupprted" or "resolution unsuportted"
Any reccomendation for resolution changer?

4k Video Recording & Hdr in @25MP mode using OPEN CAMERA

Hello everyone,
》 You can use "4k video recording & click @25mP images in hdr mode" which isn't natively present in the stock camera, period, by using "Open Camera"
》Playstore Link : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.sourceforge.opencamera
》I saw a marginal improvement in highlights especially at the night time shooting where stock camera blows up the highlights almost all the times & the detail levels are also higher as the image is captured in @25mp mode with active HDR.
》There's no stabilization in 4k recording but i saw drastic Improvement in dynamic range, especially at night. The difference between the stock 1080p video & the 4k video from "Open Camera" is huge. Ofcourse the files sizes are also 4 times higher.
》The details are much higher in both the front & back camera with better dynamic range using "Open Camera" especially during daytime.
》I prefer the stock camera only to capture still images at night due to faster shutter speed & as A50 uses pixel binning in 3:4 hdr mode which helps to gather more light ofcourse. The images are comparable here, though in this situation only.
》》》 If you're going to record video at evening & night time, I highly recommend you using 4K option in the "Open Camera", trust me the difference in dynamic range especially at night is unbelievable.
》》》 Tip : Keep the scene optimizer on & use 3:4 hdr mode while shooting at Night on Galaxy A50 as it uses pixel binning & AI to get stable pictures & gather more light for a bright shot. Avoid wide angle lens at night.
》》》 Reply to this post if you want to see actual proofs else you can try it out yourself.
Here's 4k vs 1080p video sample link (uncompressed)

The more interesting thing is what the phone is actually capable, but isn't enabled in the stock camera. Maybe Samsung will optimise the camera in future updates.

Yes brother, exynos 9610 is infact capable of doing [email protected] as mentioned on their official website.
Also, Galaxy A50 has flagship grade imx 576 sensor :

I doubt that Samsung will add 4k in future updates.

Hi, everybody. I'm using an Open Camera that's unlocked, it will unlock the camera at 2API.1280x720 resolution, bitrate 200 mbbs.120 frames per second, but the video size is 398 megabytes in 18 seconds.
xda turns into a resource to read instead of humor. The man took and unlocked camera2api without even realizing what it was. On a rooted a50, it does not allow access, but he succeeded with a finger movement in the settings ...
help! what's the settings in open camera to make 4k video?

Nothing.
Change the resolution to 4k in Settings > Video Settings > Video resolution
You're good to go, Cheers.
