1080p For the EVO 3D? - HTC EVO 3D

So now the evo 3d has been succesfully rooted, could it be possible to get 1080p recording on the EVO 3D??

I would like to know as well.

Based on the performance of 720p recording I don't think I'd even want to see how choppy 1080 would look. The SoC is indeed very capable of handling it but I think it is limited based on storage write limitations not to mention the sensor's lighting conditions. Even if we could write 24fps (def not 30fps) in all but perfect lighting we wouldn't even be getting 24fps from the sensor...likely under 10 most of the time based on how 720p recordings average out.
...but then again I could (hopefully) be very wrong.

i think you might speak the truth there is a reason HTC didnt include this, after all.

Yes we have all the hardware capable of doing so, I'm sure it will get implemented in many upcoming roms. 720p recording is just bad programming on HTC's fault. We will get it ironed out .

I tend to agree..unless it is a sensor limitation..obviously the soc is capable of it since the sensation does it very well..I believe most issues that ppl have with photos/videos is software related..I actually like the video quality that I achieve with my e3d..and sound recording is much improved over It's predecessor

I have a $99 point-n-shoot that does 720p video that mops the floor with what I can get from my E3D.
Considering it's a cellphone, yes it takes fantastic video. However if we are going to rationalize the video quality with the qualifier "for a cellphone" then wouldn't we do the same and just agree that 720p is enough "for a cellphone"?
I do a lot of video work at my job and one thing I have seen personally and from everyone that has to review and approve my work....most people won't notice a lower resolution but people will most certainly notice lower frame rate, especially below 24fps. Lower resolution with perfectly smooth video wins over a lot more people than a super sharp super high resolution video with less than ideal frame rate. I'd prefer someone gets a rock-solid 30fps fix in place before or instead of a 1080p recording resolution...
...but that's just me.

Oh I'm not.disagreeing with that..id much rather have a smooth 720 p video than a choppy 1080p. I dont think any phone does 1080p justice..I'm totally fine with 720 I was just commenting on the possibility of it being able to be done on our phones..imo 720p still needs Alot of work . Btw didn't u send u e3d back? Are u gonna get it back since root or are u hold out for the gs2

I agree id rather have smooth recording becore a higher choppy Resolution.

I think the sensor may be capable of 1080p @30fps, not completely sure though.

Yeah, I could only take 2 weeks of the EVEN WEAKER NS4G radio...I'm back...though SGS2 is still a possibility and the nPrime is for certain.

The 720P has really impressed me so far. I even tried it out at night a few times, including moving it with quick movements in my car, and I didn't see any blurring or chop. I did find out that every so often I might get some chop on playback, but it was due to a hanging app, and restarting the device solved that problem.

Wasn't 1080p advertised when not using 3d?

The Evo 4G+ Is practically the Evo3d and its got 1080p recording in its release specs..But so did our 3D before release.
I personally don't see the need for 1080p recording,the software sucks and doesn't even do 720p very good.I leave it on qHD resolution.

choppy video?

Anyone more think that all the video samples are choppy like the phone can't maintain the framerate and worse in quality than I4?
Looked great to me. Didn't see any chop.

first, i'm see it ok, no double frame & stutter when recording , second, since when the I4 can record at 1080p? if you want to compare, compare with 720p recording for SGS2, i'm sure SGS2 better then I4...
Yea I see some stutters... I dunno if it's just because of early software or youtube compression or whatever. First of all this is 1080p, so you can't really compare it to the iPhone's 720p.
The only way to check for exact output is to download and analyze the file outputed by the phone itself, as youtube is notorious for compressing and decreasing framerates to decrease size.
So far I have seen nothing but great opinions in reviews as far as 1080 recording go...
And as many have said rotten-apple company phone does not do anything better than 720.
They seem fine to me as well. Perhaps check that your Graphics card can play back that resolution.
Not criticizing you, just merely stating the obvious.
Seems awesome to me, never thought a phone could record like that, if you're on Mac or Linux don't forget Flash can sometimes be awful on these OS.
I am on a Mac and it looks fantastic here.
The video quality is smooth and crisp. If you pause it, you can actually clearly see license plates.
Wow, what crappy video from a phone.
If I were you I wouldn't buy it.
Saving the stock for yourself there?

Irony? If not, which phone do you have ?
of course it will be not like canon or nikon whatever cameras
its a smartphone .. with a camera and capable of recording 1080p @30fps .. not bad
dont expect too much from a phone
if u want a pro camera go buy one .. like canon vixia hf20
Yes total sarcasm.
I watched the video and I honestly could not see what the guy is talking about.
The video looks flippin great. And seeing the latest bench marks on the phone I very happy I passed up the Atrix not to mention that the Atrix is locked up tighter than a drum.
Oh, OK. It's always difficult to know whether it's sarcasm or not when it's written and not spoken.

Hmm i dont see any choppy video anywhere! and considering that the video is this good from a pre production model, i cant wait to see what the retail unit can do
There is no denying that the video is choppy. Thats a shame, hope the finished product is better. Some here are saying its only a phone so don't expect too much, but the iphone 4 has smooth video recording and so too does the 3GS. I think we've come to expect better.
just use 720p and you ll be fine...
Remember that these videos have been uploaded to Youtube and been encoded by Google again. If you actually go to Keepvid.com and download the video at full 1080 and watch it in VLC, they look gorgeous.

Thats not the solution.
If they sold the phone as 1080p 30fps, it should be 1080p 30fps that it is SMOOTH video not skippy one.

Evo 3d not 1080p

Since when did that change?
Wasn't it always 720 3d 30 fps and 1080 24 fps normal?
first I heard of it, and it made my stomach wrench in agony... wtf?

This is why Engadget is biased as all ****. The phone does support 1080p in 2D mode. The reviewer has his head in his ass.
The 2D camera is pretty good (if not a little grainy) and shoots video in 1080p. HTC has made a worthy successor to the EVO 4G.

I'm not that worried about it. Even if it's confirmed at 720 only, it could possibly be fixed in a software update.
If not, that's what custom roms and kernels are for.......
Cnet has a kinder review than some of the other sites... They state 1080p is there.

If you're familiar with the custom ROMs--fundamental things like the camera are very difficult to work with... they STILL don't have stable 720p video recording on non-Sense ROMs on the Evo. At least, not in the latest CM7 ROM I've installed.
I'd imagine that the software layer of the camera is even more complicated than before, so don't get your hopes up.
so is it 1080p or 720p cause i've been seeing both?

no hope for 1080p?

hi guys
since I see the videos uploaded on youtube, unfortunately the quality of video in 720p is very poor, it is the fault of youtube?, I see more in this sensation, we have no hope in the future for video on this device to 1080 p?
For me to have a good quality video is very important.
I do not know what to say. Depends on the video, although it is 720p, there are many factors that matter in sharpness.
I say it's youtube, I have some videos and I can say the video looks far superior on my device..

My camera hand isn't exactly good unless I'm using 2 hands, but It was meant to be a test for the average user so I did
The difference between 1080p and 720p is irrelevant on anything under 50"
The video either sucks because you are not good at recording and correcting your settings appropriately or YouTube compressed your video,
Ima say YouTube compressed your video...
P.s. or the phones camera could suck..

HTC is just not known for video or a very good camera.. I mean check out the guys video that he posted that he thought was good and look at this video for the samsung galaxy s II.. If video is something that you need the latest and greatest its time for a nokia or get the samsung.. Check out the low light video from the galaxy S II..

1080p recording?

So I am not sure what exactly happened to this discussion but I was wondering if there was any one trying to figure out how to get 1080p video recording possible on our phones? I believe our hardware is capable of shooting in 1080p but for some reason was left out last minute. Would this be able to happen via a custom kernel? I apologize if this was resolved a while ago but I just haven't seen any recent threads about this.
this phone can barely pull off 720p video capture very smooth..If 1080p recording is to come to our Evo3D's it will be something from HTC..

Why do you say that? HTC was not able to get the original EVO past 30fps, the developers figured it out before them. HTC was also not able to get full HDMI mirroring on the original EVO before the developers figured it out. For a long time the EVO 3D was listed as being able to capture in 1080p, then suddenly days before released it was changed. Our processors ARE capable of shooting in 1080p.
Since the camera is controlled by software, you would need a 3rd party app that was written to do 1080, and that app would have to integrate with other phone systems, such as video and processor... So..i guess we wait untill someone gets the motivation to write it...
I hope 1080p can be made possible on this phone. I feel the hardware should be able to handle it, especially the CPU. Though the quality of the camera sensor and optics seems to be a bit lacking at least at first glance. I bet with some improved software, it should be possible to squeeze out more from our rear cameras.
Htc did this for a reason...therefore im 99% sure it is not possible.
Hopefully the reason was simply that they didn't have time to finalize any loose ends...

1080p recording

Hi ,I was wondering if its possible to still somehow modify the soft to make it run on ics or jb,cause im pretty sure its hardware would allow it. Btw i remember that there was an amaze camera gingerbread thread with some alpha mod.
Our phone is not designed, nor fully capable for 1080p goodness. Sorry. Previous programs, and some old ROMs had the option, but was found to be unstable and pointless.

What about this? http://darkroms.com/darksense-3d/
BTW, I dont know whether it works or not.
What about it?
Everything I've read says that the maximum video resolution on the Evo 3D is 720P even though the Sensation and One S C2 with similar processor and memory specs record at 1080P. There must have been some trade-off required for deploying 3D cameras.
OTOH, this is a very interesting comparison. Although the videos on the other phones are higher resolution, the colors in the Evo 3D sample are much closer to the original, especially the blue on the ferris wheel gondola.
Edit: Judging by the red gondola at the bottom of both 1080p stills versus the green gondola at the bottom of the 720p still it looks like they weren't too careful about positioning things the same way for all phones, but the blue background color still looks more true on the Evo 3D.

waaaaay back when this phone was announced they made a mistake and said it had 1080p recording, but then change it to 720p. and yeah i agree that the 3D probably has something to do with it, so I don't think there's any way to get 1080p recording on it
