This mod is like the G2 camera mods. Same concept. The 4k video on the G3 is great, however when recording water or the sky you do notice that the birate could be better. 30mbps is ok, but not on a UHD or 4k monitor or TV. Its set by LG to keep the file size down of course and maybe due to micro sdcard IO speeds. But a quick media_profile.xml edit and this can remedy the pixelation due to low bit rate. Going past 40mbs might cause stutter. I'm testing higher birates.
The experienced user can do this themselves of course, simple media_profile edits. But this is aimed at people that don't want to risk editing the media_profile.xml or new to this and what the easy path.
How to apply:
Unzip and replace the attached media_profile.xml with the included one to system/etc overwrite it and reboot. (Use root explorer or any good root file manager) Tested and working on my G3. I have also set JPEG quality to 100% on all modes. This gives a very slight improvement to photos and a minor file size increase (~5%)
Changes:
Version 1
Bitrate on 4K videos increased from 30mbps to 40mbps
Photo jpeg quality compression set to 100
Version 2:
Replaces the default 1080p 30fps to 1080p 60fps @ 30mbps

Not at all, I hope you can mod the apk and make the photo quality much better. Too much over sharpening on lg's part.
Thanks My friend. I will do what is best possible for this phone as well. I hope i can do something to help everyone. Can u upload a few files for me please?!

you can count on me, except I don't have G3 yet.
I'll be available on July 12, hopefully my G3 will be in my hands by that time.
I have Panasonic x920, so I'll be able to compare.

Very easy. Overwrite the default 1080p profile to 60 fps increase bitrate to 30mbps or higher. I tested it and it works.
I'll update the media profile xml soon for those that dont like to edit

The media_profile.xml v2 edit is up. Adds 30mbps 1080p at 60fps over the default 1080p FHD profile
Replace the file and reboot
I saw the samples from the slow motion feature ([email protected]) and they're not so good. If it possible to make it better that would be awesome!
:good:
Has anyone done a comparison [email protected] vs [email protected]?
is it a massive difference (visually)??
Not sure if this is possible or not. I have been using this mod and pictures do look great and the bit rate is noticeably better.
One thing I would love is to be able to record 1080p videos at 24fps. I loved the look and feel it gave my videos on my lumia 1020.

Before you do anything, DO A NANDROID BACKUP!!!!! I am not responsible for any mistakes that you make or if anything happens to your phone.
I have seen many people on here complaining about the camera/video recording and audio. So I decided to do a little research and well this is what I got. Many thanks go to mohit1234 as he actually compiled this for the Nexus 4 and I reached out and asked him if it would work for our device since they are so similar and I gave him our copy of media_profiles and this is what he suggested. I will continue to test out more values and try to make the camera the best it can be!
FLASHABLE INSTALL!
INSTRUCTIONS:
Download file and put it on the root of your memory

Small tweaks, nothing really to list, just getting it polished up!
5/1/2013
1) Camera Focus tweaks, should help with blurry pictures
2) Now works with all Stock LG ROM's and all CM/AOKP/AOSP ROM's!
3) Also, added a manual install for some people to plug it in themselves below!
WARNING: Make sure you make a backup (TWRP is the only recovery that it will work on) because I messed with a few other values and got bootloops and had to restore a backup!
DEVELOPERS: You can use this to incorporate in your ROM, just please make sure you give credit. That is all I ask for.
THANKS TO: AdriVelazquez/Beezy420 for creating this ZIP to easier install the mod!

Thanks man, means a lot! :highfive:
Very noticeable improvement.
Thank you for making our cameras a little better than mediocre!
this mod works great I will be looking around for more mods to see what we can use. I did find a 4.0 to 4.2 mod but the camera force closes even after clearing caches and fix permissions. But will keep looking.
Excellent, working great! Thanks!
Can see improvement thanks

From your phone on a root file system explorer you will need to mount it as read write compared to the default read only so that you can go into it and delete the old media profiles.xml and paste and change the permissions of the new one.

Because amazon doesnt have the extreme pro micro simcard
The Extreme Pro sandisk card is a whole different kind of flash. It's ludicrous speed in area of your fingernail.

Why not mention that you're rooted and using a modified camera app from either xdabbeb or Jishnu Sur? The stock KK app doesn't shoot 120fps. Follow on Twitter and G+ for what updates? Are you currently modifying the camera app also?

it's not raw and note it's shot @120fps meaning ultra smooth not slow motion.It's the software u use to playback that can make it slowmo like the iphone 5s' video player.Or else it's just ultra smooth video.I processed this from a screen capture while slowing down the video using mpc.The processing rendered 1080p.

Hey Guys,
is it possible to take a slow motion video like with the iphone 6?
for example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gmo_xItm_tI
The video starts in normal speed, then changed in slow motion speed and goes back to normal speed...
So you can make a video and anytime you change for a short time into the slow motion mode.
Is this possible with tha Alpha or ss there a solution for it?
Thank you,
kind regards!

Hi Tom,
its not what i mean...
I know that slow-motion video´s are possible.
With the Iphone its possible to take the movie with the normal 1x speed.
A few seconds later you can activate the slow-motion speed.
look at this video

This exact video was sped up after it was filmed on iphone, in video editor app. Sadly alpha doesn't capture sound in slow-mo, and i cant find any apps that would record proper slow-motion or apps, that would allow to speed up parts of the video.

You could do smooth motion at 1080p. Might not be as good but 60 fps can be slowed down a lot.

as the title says, is there any app/method which I can use to achieve 1080p @60fps?? And 4K @30fps video recording?? The SoC supports it btw.

I really doubt the SoC supports 60fps video recording. I looked a lot into it a while ago, went so many ways, but I kept failing.
I read on russian forum, you must change the media_profiles.xml too and using the moto camera.

Actual fps depends on lighting conditions. Lower lights = lower fps
