Is there any camera app that can take pics & record videos in JB (4.1) just like Videocam Illusion pro can record videos in GB (2.3)?
Please post about such apps so that we can use JB as many of the cheaper phones nowadays are using newer OS than us, and we can show them that we are still in the race.

lgcamera - Android app that can be installed from Market. It offers the possibility to take video recordings with customized options. This app works on Wildfire (tested on nightly CM7) and if messing around with the app settings a bit, it can take videos of a higher quality then the default camera app.
This thread has the aim to inform you about this wonderful app and to encourage you to test and post here your settings/configurations.
Thank you.
Ok downloaded it now installing...Testing later reply tomorrow
EDIT: Ok well first impressions: yay no border .
For recording...what settings its best? it's record but not playing after...
I use Vignette, it works great, it does photos and video all from a full screen with no borders. I love it. Give it a try lads!

lgcamera surely can take better video recordings than default CM7 Camera app. (i specified it has been tested on CM7 nightly)
I'm aware that you were talking about cm7. Maybe the quality is better, but its still bad enough that I won't use it anyway (my fifth gen ipod nano comes handy here )
So I merely said that its of no use to me. (I find vignette far superior, although it lacks video recording)
this app is great for photo shooting but the zoom don't work on my phone
Hi, Could anyone advise me on the set of alternative application for recording videos? Until now I used the stock LG Camera, which had a lot of settings and I was very satisfied with her. However, it has little support and does not work on CM9. It is mainly about me adjusting resolution, bitrate and focus (auto, manual, fixed, etc.).
This application is mainly used for filming know since I have the unfortunate mobile module from Fujitsu Siemens and do the problem in recording HD or Full HD video over stock applications about every 3 seconds when focusing hangs video.
Thank you very much for you help!
why not download third party apps from the market buddy?
cheers

Thanks to Th3Bill's thread I'm now using Video Illusion app for video recording on JB.
1) Do you have other apps that do video recording? I tried flashing a JB 4.2 camcorder someone recommended but I get white screen like the others who've tried it.
2) How do 3rd party apps get good video recording quality when they don't have the official drivers for Atrix 4g? This is just for my noob knowledge... and why do we need drivers to get a stock video app?
Thanks in advance..
Camera ICS works pretty good. Free @ play store.

is camcorder working with app in cm10?
We need to keep waiting Because we don't have drivers of camera in JB for Motorola Atrix!!!
Hi all,
I'm a user of mobile hidden camera however I'm experiencing some problems.I'm currently using the latest free market version (3.3.1-9) and would like very much to buy the premium version of the app if not for the issues. I have a Samsung Galaxy SII (GT-I9100) and running an 4.0.4 AOKP based ROM (Resurrection Remix v2.6.1 by Westcrip).
The problems I have are:
-firstly I cannot record on higher quality than 480p, If I try 720p or 1080p and HIGH_QUALITY the app will not start recording at all production a 0MB file.This problem is rather minor as I don't mind the 480p recording and actually that recording has a wider view-angle even in the stock camera application.
-secondly and the most annoying thing is that the videos which can record come out scrambled and I'm unable to view any of them. I've tried playing with recording quality and encoder override (resolution override has only a default option) and I've even tried the various firmware fixes like 1,2 and 3 producing no end result.
Would you it be possible to assist me with some kind of best settings to be applied or which working older version can I sideload.
I would be very grateful
THIS THREAD IS NOW OBSOLETE.
Thanks to Tof37 we now have native camcorder support in CM10 and CM10.1 (JB 4.1 and 4.2.2 respectively). If you're on a ROM who's developer hasn't yet included the native support from CMx10 sources, you can still use this app.
Recording 640x480 res videos on ICS/JB with a 3rd party app
The application is called Videocam Illusion.
How to ajdust the app's settings:
Set the audio quality to 44.1KHz
Set the video resolution to 640x480
Set the video quality to 100 (other values work fine too, but I prefer this one)
What does this app actually do to make recording possible?
It uses mJPEG encoding (each frame is treated seperately as a JPEG picture) and outputs the video files in .mov format rather than using h264/MPEG encoding
Where's the catch?
Recorded videos can only be played back within the app because the Gallery app does not read .mov formats. You can also find the recorded video files on your SD card in the videocamillusion folder and play them anywhere else (PC) though.
Low framerate
Poor compression ratio
The app was tested and reported successfully working on:
FeraVolt's JB v2 ROM w/ FK v4
walker.cz's walkerlab JB 4.2.2
scritch's CMx10 JB 4.1 (CM10) w/ CMx10 kernel
scritch's CMx10 JB 4.2.2 (CM10.1)
Slimbean v4 w/ AminKernel P7005
However, it shouldn't have any reasons not to work on any other ICS/JB ROMs and/or kernels.
Many thanks to walker.cz who found the app. He's also working on a JB 4.2.2 ROM with many customizable features avaliable with the AROMA installer so make sure you check it out here in the x10 developement area.
It's not HD, but it's something.
Happy recording!
Man is this awesome....
Just tested and working fine Fera's JB V2.
Thanks
Sent from my Dell Streak 7 using xda app-developers app
