[Q] NeatRom 4.7 Lite problems with camera video mode - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've currently installed NeatRom 4.7 Lite. Everything is fine except for the video mode of the standard camera app.
Camera mode is ok as well, but when switching to video mode, the zoom factor seems to change, everything is bigger and I'm unable to record a good video without moving backwards.
Please have a look at the attached screenshots.
Anyone else with this problem?
Anyone with a solution to this?
Thank you.

It's not a problem it happens because of the changes in resolution, in photo mode 8 megapixel capture is at resolution 3264x2448, and max resolution for video recording is 1920x1080.
Edit :If you don't want to step back you can reduce video recording resolution to like 640x480, but the recorded videos will not be good for watching in a big screen.

I was using CheckRom v6 before (Android 2.3.6) and never mentioned anything like this, screen detail was the same in camera and video mode.
Has this something to do with Jelly Bean or only with NeatRom?
Do you know any alternative video recording app?

Well in max resolution(full HD recording) any kind of zooming is not allowed but in lower resolution zooming is there, and I don't remember about gb, but this is common in all my Jellybean device's.
Edit ;So what I mean is since zooming is fixed it's kinda at max zoom, and I am using NeatRom with this device and other jb versions on other devices.

That was my point.
Zoom factor seems to be at max level, whereas it was at min level on GB.
But good to know, that this not a NeatRom failure.

This is a trick used by samsung because we can record on 30fps it crops the image for achiving target fps u cant do anything ..... hardware limitation

I don't know any good ones that record video at full HD, I myself use Camera Zoom FX for multiple camera features, and for video recording they use the stock recorder, and as far as I know the stock video recorder app is referred to as the best, for your problem if you are willing to sacrifice full HD, reducing the resolution to the one just below(1280x720) is also pretty neat since we can play with zooming levels to our desire, I myself find it more comfortable to use.

:good:
Thank you for your answers. Maybe the resolution was set to 1280x720 on CheckROM v6 / Android 2.3.6, so I didn't notice such a difference.
Switched to 1280x720 and now it is ok.
I use Camera Zoom FX for a long time and agree, that it is the best photo solution.

Do you use Lg Camera app?

Hey have you tried this app?
https://market.android.com/details?id=rubberbigpepper.lgCameraPro&feature=search_result
They say is a better camera app than the stock camera app, I have tried on void#forever but I think I couldnt set it correctly because forced closes..and other issues
So any of you use it? What do u think, is better than the default app..? Why
Thanks!
i use the free version and it works fine, i dont know any other cam apps that allows remap of the search button as shutter so this is what i use, currently using it on void #forever with no major issues, tho i think something may have broken zoom (might be CMSettings), but i think its just digital zoom anyway?
Using camera 360 full version... Love the app and its effects.
any other opinion?
well thanks you. holymolys how have u set the app settings?
I prefer stock app

+1 it's one of the best camera apps
I prefer stock app, too.
vignette is also a very nice choice as well. imo the paid version is well worth the money.
the lgcamera app is the best for recording videos. you can change the sound to acc and you get crispy clear sound on your video. and you can change the format of the video too. for photos i use the stock one
camera 360 is the best ... and its HDR effect is awesome..... it removes the dullness of the stock camera..... just try it....

LGCamera is THE best . Have alots of settings . And work video recording at 20fps , not 18 stock .
The default app included in Void #Forever allows you to change the shutter to a key. I prefer it over the apps here =D

It does the trick
Guys i have some question in Camera 360:
1. Whats the Diff between Manual focus and pre focus?
2. And there are an array of settings, under the icon (P in a camera) like stabilizer,2grid,4grid,dizziness etc
Anyone knows abt it
camera 360 has better performance than stock camera but i don't need all it effects.
Has anyone edited the stock camera app to record videos at high fps.??
like 720p with 30fps will be nice Is it possible .??

I think thats impossible xD
I have the three apps for camera: default from void, LgCamera and 360Camera.
The first is good for photos, but usually they are very "black" and I have to increase exposure.
The second one made me a lot of boots and issues... I cant set it correctly
About 360camera...I dont like thoose effects, I only want normal photos xD. And each time I want to use it..I have to click two or three times on some buttons for set the camera working. On the others, you click on camera app and its done, you can make photos since that moment.

No way !!!!!
even though the processor can encode upto 720x480 @ 30fps but the camera hardware outputs max 640x480 @18fps so 640x480 @18fps is maximum ....

(Q) 1080P Recording with 2.3.4?

Has anybody seen or found anything to enable 1080P recording on 2.3.4? I liked having the option in previous builds.

What option in previous builds? Stock Atrix doesn't have a 1080p option.
If you are referring to the olympuscamera.apk which was posted, this was proven to be 24fps with a smaller file size than 30fps on the stock 720p. This means what you were getting may have appeared to be 1080p, but there was definitely data not being captured, as the file sizes were too small.
What puzzles me is why people want record at 15fps with stretched out 720p to 1080p?
Seriosly...
Guess i didn't do my homework on that one. Thanks for the help and information.
I've done some testing on cm7 with lgcamera and the stock cm7 camera at 720p and 1080p. 1080p recording always results in 22fps no matter what you set the fps to. 720p runs nice and smooth at 30fps. I monitor and analyzed the framerate and bitrate using kmplayer. So my question is. How do we get a nice smooth 720p image on 1080p recording while maintaining at least 24fps? Also on cm7 beta how do we edit the stock camera parameters? since they don't exist in the build.prop?

[Q] Camera slow motion

There is any app or hack or mod that allow the s2 to record at higher framerate and reduced resolution?
Like 240fps and 320x240.
Or maybe 120fps @ 640x480
It would be very nice and funny
I think a dev can modify a rom to make it works.
Never heard of this
sorry
hope it helped

[MOD] Camera for J-Team AOSP 4.4.2

Hello everyone, I've found this mod for our camera, it's a modificate camera with Ultrapixel and autofocus on video, so i want it to share with you guys.
Here you have the original thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746611
P.S. : I'm using the last version, that for Jelly Bean 4.2
It's looking good but it's like Camera JB+ nothing too much.
And media_profiles.xml is including 1080P video definition but our device supports 720P max.These values can conflict or not I don't know anyway.
Isn't UltraPixel a hardware feature?

Yes i forgot to mention that has 1080p, but has no problem if you set it to 720p.

Yes it is hardware, but this is like PhisX on nonPhisX videocards, so is has a little boost of image
P.S. And by the way this is for who wanna try or use it. So now depends on you if you like it or no ...
