Hey guys!
I am using MTCD device 1GB ram, quadcore, 16gb memory rk3188 chip for mercedes w203
From beggining i am having problems with dvr usb front camera. - it just doesnt work properly. Sometimes after turning recording it is catching up and recording, but sometimes there is only blackscreen, sometimes app is crashing after "record button".
I tried most ROM-s and only at halk mod 1.3 camera sometimes start recording - at factory firmware and other mods camera is mostly dead.
Its not camera issue - we ordered 3 diffrent camera (360p, 720p 24fps , 1080p 24fps) and every is not working properly at my android radio. When using with PC they are working fine.
I am wondering - it might 1gb issue?
I use a 640x480 DVR camera with my 1GB unit. It mostly works fine.

I've recently been noticing when I actually went ahead and utilized the video recording functions of my KS20, that it stutters horribly during recording - as in, it literally freeze-frames every few seconds of video, which makes any recordings really horrible to watch. I know on my old phone, which had the same sort of 2MP camera, I never experienced such issues.
Is there a driver patch or update I can be directed to in order to rectify my problem?
Cheers for any assistance.

try to record on internal storage
I have it set to internal, and there's plenty of space for it to use to store the video. It just keep stuttering - with plenty of ram free as well. I'm quite lost as to what's the problem exactly.
Sorry to resurrect my old post, but I'm still having the problem despite fiddling around with it insistently, to no avail.
Basically, I'm storing on the internal memory, with plenty of RAM free (original ROM as well). I record video and every 2-3secs it freeze-frames or stutters for a moment, and does not stop (recorded 5mins and it kept doing it). I really need to understand whether it is a software issue, or an issue with the firmware, or if it's hardware and i need to get it repaired. The camera takes perfectly fine photographs and i have no other problems.
Any ideas/fixes that I could be informed of would be great.
As a HD video recorder my Galaxy W is not fit for purpose
If I record videos longer than about 60 seconds, the audio and video start to get way out of sync. I don't think it happens gradually - the sync usually goes out after a short glitch in the video. With each glitch, the video falls further behind the audio, and it never recovers - it just gets worse and worse.
I see the problem when recording to either an external SD or the internal storage, so it's not an SD card speed issue.
The problems go away when I record in a lower resolution (480p is fine), but one of the reasons I bought the W was for its HD recording capabilities!
Does anyone else have this issue, or is it just me?

I didn't check this problem in Recording, but i found the similar problem in playing 720p video. After a few seconds the audio is out of sync.
I thinks its purely a software problem, and future update will resolve this.
Currently i have 2.3.6.
Thanks
Yeah, it's not just a playback problem - if I transfer the videos to my PC the same glitches and audio sync issues are still there. I think I'll try and report this to Samsung if I can bear the pain of negotiating their support website.
Sometimes I also experience this when recording 720p video to internal storage, but no problem when I record to external microsd class 10 card. I assume this because when I did benchmark the internal storage writing speed only about 5MB/sec while the external storage reaches 15-17MB/sec on writing speed. What class is your external micro sd?
As for playback sync issues, I did not experience it either...
That sux. I havn't looked it up on my phone yet, but I really need my camera for recording this weekend. So It better not be that problem on my phone.

My external card is only class 4, but I naively assumed that the internal storage would be up to the task even if my external card wasn't. Looks like that might not be the case. 5MB/s - is it really that bad? If so, that's seriously crap.
I noticed the same with internal SD
Did not yet make HD video's using external SD. Hopefully that will resolve it.
Csn galaxy fit record hd videos to about 480p somehow as its having a powerful 5mp camera...?? Plz help me .. I need to record hd videos with my fit these vacations
Sent from my GT-S5670 using XDA
I just tested the 1080p video camera and was surprised to find that I can actually pause the recording, move to where I need to be, and continue to record so that when I am finish, I get one continous file. This is like analog or DV tape. If you stop the recording then you need a video editor to piece the footage together, not to mention that if you record 5 secs at a time and play it back on the pc, you get just that 5 secs and have to open the next file.
Now you can record for 5 secs, pause, recompose, start recording again, pause, etc... and you will have one continuous file. I wonder if the file size limit is 4gb if you format your external SD card to fat32.
Also, I have two Samsung SMART LED TV, one is 2010 C series and the other is a 2011 D series. If you have those, then you know about the allshare feature that allows you to send pics, music, video straight to your TV without the need for wire or that $99 Allshare Cast. Now while musics and pictures can be sent to the TV wirelessly without lag, 720p video can not. I couldn't do it with my EPIC 4G touch without experiencing buffer just like a youtube video is buffering. That is with both TVs so I figure it must be my slow network at home but I upgraded to Gigabit ethernet and that still doesn't help. I figure the problem is that the 720p video from the Epic 4G touch which is recorded at 17mbps is a bit too much to send over wifi to the TVs.
So I recorded some 1080p this morning. BTW, as long as you keep the camera still, the video is very sharp. Do a lot of panning and the camera has trouble focusing sharply. Stop and touch the screen to do selective focusing, like on a flowers that is not in the center of the screen. While the video bit rate remains at 17 mbps, the resulting video is very sharp on my 55 inch LED TVs. Almost as good as my Canon HFS10 but the details are much better on the Canon.
So I sent the 1080p video via allshare to my 2010 C series TV(which is hard wired to the router) and I still get buffering problem. So I figure the bit rate is too high to send over wifi. Then I went upstair and tested it with the 2011 D series TV and surprisingly, no buffering or lag. And the TV upstair is wirelessly connected to the router, not hard wired.
So I took a 24mbps 1080p video that I recorded on my Canon DSLR, which I transferred to my phone, and tried to play that using the built in allshare feature of the TV and my Galaxy Note 2. Surprise surprise, no stuttering or buffering either. No need to connect the MHL cable or remove the microSD card to play the videos on TV anymore.
Hey Guys,
I have a question, me being lame tried to record a live set from a dj without the video (I did not want to separate the two) but the built in audio recorder records only in mono....
Is there any recording software which :
- Stereo
- uses the full capability of the Microphone(s)
Thanks in advance!
I bought this phone to record stereo audio, but am having the same problems.
Does it record stereo video?
Then why not stereo audio!?
It really bothers me that no one has ever found a way how to bypass the camcorder lock on the stereo microphones.
I tried ALL RECORDING APPS on the market. And with every possible setting!
Everything is always mono. Using just the bottom Mic.
I Even tried nTrack and Fruity Loops, Field Recorder, etc.
Only way to record HDR Stereo Sound is by using the original HTC Camcorder app in 720p (to save storage space) and then to copy the audio out using
a converter. (I always set saturation to black and white, Exposure down to -2 and fixate the focus on a bright light to keep the overall video black to just save more space)
I then use Media Coder on Windows, or the MP3 Video Converter app that comes with TubeMate. No need to convert the audio, it just takes the audio track out of video without doing any alterations.
But still a big Problem. The Camera app always turns up the Background Light to 100% by default (and you can't even manually turn it down) so it eats up your battery.
(Any other camera app on the market doesn't do stereo either)
And the MP4 Video Files are huge compared to the AAC audio files, so no possible way to record stuff that's longer than 4 hours (unless you have several SD Cards and a Power Outlet at hand.
PLEASE!! If Any Of You Pros Are Reading This! Help Us!!!
I think it shouldn't be too hard to tear down the pre installed HTC Camera app programming, to find the key for unlocking the ways of Stereo Recording of Audio Only.
If I only had any programming knowledge I would try it myself.
But I can't even write a Pong game...

My LG G3 has part of the touchscreen not working. I want to use it to record 4k video, but the camera settings icon is on part of the screen that doesn't respond to touch. Rotating the phone does not rotate the camera icons. All I'm mainly trying to do is switch the video recording to 4k. It's currently on 1080p.
I've tried 5 or so camera apps, and a few of them will put camera settings in the middle of the screen, but as far as I can tell, most 3rd-party camera apps can't record 4k video. Their settings menu comes up in the middle of the screen, and I can choose 1080p and lower but not higher. If those apps are supposed to be able to record 4k, then I guess there's something else wrong with my phone, because they don't give a 4k option. I've never tried 4k on it before at all.
I've read CameraMX can record 4k video, but it uses the same camera buttons as the stock app, so I still can't press the settings icon button.
Is there some other way to switch the recording to 4k mode? Edit a file somewhere or something? Or another camera app that can do 4k and also puts the settings menu somewhere besides the upper-left of the screen?

...Of course! I forgot all about that kind of thing. And now at midnight I dug around in my boxes of random computer parts knowing there's an OTG cable in there somewhere I bought years ago "because you never know when you'll need an OTG cable."
BOOM. Changed to 4k.
4k video recording was going to be the main use for the phone now, and I was getting ready to sell it because it was stuck on 1080p.
I was focused on this specific camera problem and didn't think to try a more generic search of how to access a dead screen. That might have made this thread unnecessary. Oh well.
Now to look up how to increase the recording bitrate. Thank you.
