[Q] How do you record Slow Motion video? - Sprint LG G3

I see the guys in the International LG G3 forum talking about recording slow mo, but I don't see any options for the video recording on the Sprint version
I'm sure it's super-obvious, but does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks!!
[EDIT]
I found it! You go to the little gear icon in the top left of the camera application. Click the little "##M" icon that chooses megapixels... it drops down and let's you choose 120HD for slow mo.

Took me a couple of minutes to find also.
I'm glad they gave us the ability to record @ 120 but when it comes to editing how the video looks there are no options.
So even though we can play the video at 1/8 speeds (slowmo) we can't upload or share the video at the speeds. It then just becomes a 720p 120FPS video instead of slomo....
The question that I have is: Where is the ability to edit the video so that certain parts of the video can be slowed down?
Unless I'm missing something on the phone the software is a little lacking in this area.

Thanks for posting this i had no idea we had this capability

I haven't tried slow motion myself, but have you tried this?

Slow Motion Video

I love this little phone. It continues to surprise me at every turn.
I discovered slow motion video today.

With the camera app open, push the A in the top right, first option - slow motion video.
The panoramic shots come out nice too

Sure is, except there is limitations on the res. i.e. no HD slow mo. Still cool
Going out to get some landscape shots in the mountains today. Panaorama inc!
I tried this feature inside my house. For some reason when I click record the screen goes a little darker and that's the way the video comes out as well.
Very cool never the less. Maybe ill try it tomorrow outside.

That's the way photography works... Slow motion is more frames per second, which translates to faster shutter speeds which allow less light into the sensor. Hence darker video unless the iso is boosted, then it gets too grainy... Good light will make a big difference...
It makes NO SENSE (no pun) for the phone to not have slow motion HD recording. None. Buddy of mine at work has the Resound, and we record 720p slow motion all the time. Checked the file's resolution, and it is full 720p. Why would a NEWER phone from the same manufacturer with better hardware and newer software... backpedal?
Pop Player (Speed-Control Video Player)
I highly recommend the free Pop Player app. I recently made a couple of reviews on it on YouTube.
This new video player allows the user to utilize speed-control. The slow-motion
and speeded-motion are extremely smooth too and audio syncs perfectly with
the video at any speed. It can definitely be useful for athletes and students.
Some people I know even use it to replay their golf swings in slow-motion
in order to improve their form.
This player plays MP4 files that contain H264 and AC codecs.

Do you have the .apk, because this player is no longer in the Google play store. Disregard, I found it in the play store, I should've looked thoroughly the first time.

Why does a video player need all those permissions? Read phone state and identity, retrieve running apps, kill background processes, discover accounts, market billing service. It may all be legit, but I wasn't taking any chances. Deleted the app without even running it as soon as I saw the permissions. Should have noticed it before installing the app.

Best video editing app

I'm looking for a video editor with one specific function.
I have an LG G2 so can record in slow motion at 120 fps.
I want an app that will allow me to set the video speed at different times.
So the start of the video is at 'normal' speed and some is at 1/8 of normal speed.
You get the idea...normal speed leading to the bit I want in slo-mo, followed by normal speed.
I've spent hours hunting and cannot find one!
Suggestions?
No one? Really?

Any ideas people?

LG v10 How do you change the camer or video resolutions?

I've been searching the internet and this forum for a couple days now, as well as messing around with my v10. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to lower the resolution. I want to lower the res so that I can send videos via text. Does anyone know how to do this? Seems like it should be easier than this. Am I missing something???

From my experience and I ran a quick test just now, if you use the native camera app, go into manual video mode and choose settings, then lower your bitrate to L, resolution to the lowest, and fps to 24. When on those setting a 23 second video came out at 18.52 megs. When I had bitrate set to medium, resolution at the same (lowest), and fps at 30, a similar 23 sec video was 34.20 megs. Almost double. Now I realize that both sizes are still going to be compressed to hell sending through a text/messaging app so you could also try recording and sending a video through included functions of whatever app you use.

Anyone have issues with lag? When I select 1440p 60fps HDR, the video will start to slow down and begins to skip. I have even turned on performance mode and it still does it. I've rebooted my phone, made sure nothing intensive is running but no luck. It's not my internet connection either as I have 200Mbps download
Anyone tried this, should look nice:

Same the phone heats up and I seem to have fps drop.
Not sure I understand this YouTube HDR video thing...
HDR, in photos, is a high dynamic range from multiple exposures. So shadows are boosted, etc.
How can a video be HDR? So say it's a high dynamic range and colours and shadows are boosted. Okay. But what feature does YouTube "HDR" then apply together with our Note 8 screens that's so special as opposed to viewing it on any other device? Not quite sure I fully understand.

Is the video buffering when it skips? If so, are you on WiFi or LTE? If it's LTE, some carriers throttle you whenever you're streaming video.
Mine does the same thing. Doesn't matter if it's on Wi-Fi or LTE. 1080p HDR and 1440p HDR both lag. 1440p is a fast slideshow. Unwatchable atm. Until either YouTube or there is a patch it fittest work right. So far have confirmed outs on everyone phone I have tested from people at work. 4 including mine. Netflix hdr seems like outta working fine tho.

Edit 2: https://www.xda-developers.com/hdr-youtube-app-android-1080p-only/
Edit: It appears since then 1080p is the highest resolution for HDR videos. So they removed 1440p and 4K playback for HDR for now. Which is a good sign, it means they realised the problem, and removed it until they fix it. Hopefully it will be soon.
Original:
I have the same issue on my Xperia XZ Premium. I only now noticed youtube has HDR support, but playing it at 2160p the videos are very laggy, and slowed down and skip around to keep up with audio. Playing it at 1440p, still a problem but not as bad. At 1080p it's okay, but then again you lose 3 quarters of the resolution by going down to 1080p. What's the point of 4K HDR if it doesn't work? This is a YouTube app problem though. I made a bug report, hopefully they notice it and fix it.
These stats don't really show anything, they look normal, but it's 100% not normal, as it slows down significantly for no reason, it's not buffering or anything. It's like the app can't handle all the data.
Which is wierd as 2160p 60fps videos work fine. The problem is with HDR

Netflix HDR Playback issue

Hi all,
So far I am liking the phone, I am having an issue and I dont know if it's me or what. When I was regular shows/movies on Netflix (HD) it looks great, no issues what so ever. But when I view HDR shows the whole thing has a really bad brownish tint to it.
I tried to take a screen shot of it but it would not let me do that. I dont know if I did something wrong in the settings which in the display part it is set to Movies and the Enhanced Video Color is turned on as well.
If you need more information to help me fix this issue please me know.
Thanks in advance
Is anyone else having similar issues or is it just me?
I'm not signed up for Netflix 4k (which is the plan to get HDR), so there's no way I can test it.

Yes I have. It looks great. Only problem I am having is HDR in the Netflix app. I talked to Netflix and they said they never head of the problem before. But videos everywhere else works and looks amazing
Oh man, forgot this phone played hdr videos. They are amazing! Don't have Netflix, but they are great on YouTube.

Just a standard and a high option and mine is set to high. I know, every other app like youtube and so on plays it perfect. May jusy be the Netflix app itself
Mine do not appear to play in HDR either and the video information shows HDR on the description. I wish it would show an HDR logo like my TV when it is playing in HDR. As far as youtube, what HDR resolution do you guys use? Mine is a bit choppy in 720p and skips frames badly at anything above.
I set my Youtube to 4K ... it was flawless over wifi ..
TMobile limits you to 480p to keep unlimited usage.
All, my Sony Xperia xz premium does indeed show HDR when I look up the Daredevil series. BTW it's a good to test the screen with. Anyway the V30 only shows HD so my feeling is that we are not watching HDR. I could be that Netflix hasn't authorized the V30 for HDR viewing as of yet. As I recall it took a bit for the XZP to get added to the white list.
Just got my V30 US998 and I noticed the same thing with HDR Netflix playback. It's similar to what I've seen with some early "HDR Compatible" TVs that are technically capable of receiving the signal, but not applying the appropriate processing or color mapping to make it look right. It could just be that Netflix needs to update the app to support the V30, or maybe it will be fixed with a future system update. Youtube does look great, but I'm not 100% sure that's playing in HDR properly either because there's no indication one way or another.
Question on the HDR youtube videos... I saw a screenshot somewhere (not v30) showing that you could actually choose HDR as a separate "quality setting". i.e. you'd have "480p, 720p, 1080p, 720pHDR, 1080pHDR" so on and so forth. My youtube doesn't show that. Is there any way to confirm that it's actually playing in HDR?
It looks out of this world, so it probably already is playing HDR, but just figured I'd check for sanity.
Same for me. HDR videos on Netflix are washed out. As if Netflix is rendering the video in a different colorspace. HD videos are fine.

Look on your phone, the LG help app. They mentioned the V30 does not have a certain codec or something for HDR playback ... ?
