As stated in the title I need short video file download from those running on jpk. 1280 by 720. Daytime nighttime does not matter. Just playing around with codecs.
here you go
thanks a lot.
good to know that froyo brings mp4 with aac instead of eclair crappy 3gpp with amr. should be better for the concerts and loud environments now.
lol...When i first saw the video i laughed, i didnt read wat the op said, just the title...rofl
@idan - there is no significat difference with aac audio, the sound is still crappy when you record a concert.

Damn audio, totally ruins the recording/video experience with this phone...
It still is a great improvement, now I can just make a video, start AllShare and immidiately see the result on the big screen using my PS3. I always thought it was a shame to use this stupid 3GP container so I have to remux all the videos on my PC.
As for the sound: does the phone record from headset if connected? If yes, I guess this could be exploited to use a better microphone. The inbuilt one is meant for the phone function, obviously, and they just didn't add another for noise cancellation and video recording.

Fantastic. Now all we need is touch-to-focus in video mode.
another nice thing would be to be able to change the recording sound volume or some thingy that corrects its selve when you record loud things.

It is possible to record from headset but sound is still crappy. It's software problem.
The problem is with the mic itself, it is very sensitive, it would be great if there was an app that could monitor the input level of the mic and adjust de volume when its lower or higher than a certain threshold level, if not automatic at least manually.
Some kind of mic equalizer?
my bad it was always aac audio and not amr. by mistake i compared with old nexus video lol. only wrapper changed to mp4.

This is just a stupid iPhone function. Video recording auto-focus is much usefull and better when you shoot a video.
I believe our phone has 2 microphones on the top and bottom of the phone, so what's stopping us from recording stereo audio? Is it something samsung just left out, or is there a hardware limitation?
Could this possibly be added with a software mod?

Agreed. Why is this getting no attention? I've spent over an hour researching this and found countless mentions of the international S3 recording stereo audio when recording video. I have tried numerous apps and tested every factory option to get stereo recording and nothing works. I've also read that the other mic is for noise reduction. So what's the deal? Can anyone shed any light on this?
Could it be because of different processor and audio chips?

Just did some more tests. The mic on the top of the phone acts as the mic for both front and rear camera video. When using the stock record audio app the bottom mic is used. Clearly both mics can be used. I guess we'll just have to wait for someone to make a stereo record app since it's clearly possible.
So do any of the xda devs that we all love so dearly want to take a crack at this? Recording audio in stereo would just be tits! Sorry, couldn't help myself!
Samsung Galaxy records sstereo to Video and audio apps can too
I am not a developer but i hope this helps.
When I record a video with the phone held horizontally (the top mic is right and the bottom mic is left. I was so surprised the first time I heard something that had depth. But I couldnt dupllicate it using the Vmemo or any of the other apps. I got kucky one day when recording video with headphones in. The instant play revealed a stereo audio recording when video recording. AWESOME.....
PART II
There is an aoo called Recforge that allows the user to set the device (Mine is Samsung Galaxy S3) to record .wav or .ogg or .mp3. (First app I've seen that recognizes and manipulates .wav files), The user can set the sample rate up to 48kHz. And lastly, The recording can be switched to Stereo (Native) mode. It works great !!!!!
Hope this is helpful. Perhaps one of you is the developer for RecForge.
I love the app. I am a musician and I hate mono recordings done with AGC.(Yes RecForge let's you turn that crap off too)
Good luck.

In CM stereo work fine, problem in stock ROM only
Unfortunately, RecForge doesn't record mp3 or whatever compressed format on-the-fly. Instead, you have to wait at the end of every recording while the phone converts the file to the compressed format you want. That's very inconvenient. Recently, I tried Hi-Q mp3 dictaphone, but this one records in mono only, and the newest version is limited to ridiculous 4 seconds of compressed recording. According to the fact being so unlucky to find a suitable app anywhere, here my 'wishlist':
-recording of compressed audio on-the-fly with at least 128kbit/s bitrate and 44.1kHz sample rate, no recompressing at the end of recordings
-recording in stereo
-display for input sound level would be nice (e.g. vu-meter)
-small app
-free, if possible
Zoli
any news?
If a dev could please have some input on this, it would be much appreciated. I'm curious about this too. I'm using a custom rom(GalaxySfre3) and it also has this problem. I recently made the observation of the 2 mics. Both useable, but not simultaneously. I might try CM, don't know if that guy is saying stereo recording works or if just recording works on it. If anyone has the time to check and confirm if other roms support it, I'd appreciate it!

I'm trying to think of which rule that would be violated. I can't tell, so I'm going to say it's the one about Personal Attacks.

So your suggesting it isn't anything to do with ROM compatibility, and in order for it to work, there's things xda has prohibited discussion that are necessary. I honestly don't have a clue for what it is, but if a moderator could just confirm if this is true then I don't think anyone would persist with this. Including myself, although I'm positive it could just be a kernal tweak that gets it working. I don't know much about tweaking the kernal so I'd rather leave it up to someone who knows what they're doing.

It's a kernel that isn't supposed to be discussed within xda.

RecForge records in mp3 on the fly too. The free version pauses recording (in mp3 and ogg not wav) every 3 min which can be resumed.
May be at the time of your writing this feature was not available.
Possible

RecForge does record in stereo mode. It records in mp3/wav/ogg and is perhaps most feature rich audio recorder for Android. The free version pauses mp3 and ogg format recording every 3 min which can be resumed. So either one can buy paid version or record in wav and later convert to mp3.
Another app capable of stereo recording is Easy Voice Recorder Pro (Paid version only, free version does not). But it is more costly than RecForge and have less features too.

It can record and encode to mp3, ogg ... in real time, just go in the settings and choose your favorite format.

For the stereo recording, I tried to improve options and features in RecForge II
It's in beta for the moment, but I think we're almost in a stable release. You can get it here : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dje073.android.modernrecforge
To record in stereo, you will have to :
- Select "Audio Record -> Stereo (native)"
- Select the “Source -> Front microphone”
- No disabling of the AGC”
PS : this may not be visible in preview mod waveform, but it should work in recording mod
It doesn't work on all devices, I tried to establish a list of working devices here : https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/58769997/RecForgeII/html/faq.html (page in construction).
If you have more informations so I can fill this page, thanks in advance.
Hi. What is the best way to record audio at concert?
Default Audio recording android app is bad, but audio using video recording is much better.
Is there some audio recorder app in store that give better quality for audio recording?
Thanks
I use smart voice recorder it does real good with music in my opinion
I found the default app (LG?) much too loud (very high gain).
Tried a few, I now use titanium recorder. Not for concerts though, just general recordings (bonus: it's free)
hi q mp3.?

You can try Secret Voice Recorder. Apart from providing you the best quality voice recording, the app lets you start and stop voice recording simply by pressing the power button 3 times within 1.5 seconds. The power button gesture will work even if your mobile is locked.
I am the developer of the application. If you got any suggestion or feedback, let me know. I will look into it and fix it.
I suggest you to try Apowersoft audio recorder software where you can record your voices, record from music streaming sites and more. You can also save audio in high quality and get deal on the product from dpcoupon.com

A few days ago I saw a message (somewhere?) where the poster mentioned that the Open Camera app had an audio source option in the video recording settings that seemed to improve audio quality. You may possibly have to set the Camera2 API on in the settings as well (not sure of this) in order to see all the options. There is an "Unprocessed" option in the audio source options. I've not tested this myself but it sounds like it (no pun intended) has promise for audio in video recordings.
Thanks. Sounds alot cleaner. But audio seems to be more quiet.
