LG V30 Video length longer than 11:53?? - LG V30 Questions & Answers

Hey I'm having issues with my LG V30+ From Sprint. I'm having issues with recording a video that lasts more than 11:53. I'm trying to record a full softball game but the recording cuts off at 11:53 and creates a whole new video. How can I make it just one long video without having it be a Time Lapse video? Thanks for the help!

Is it "11:53" limit -- or does it just happen to coincidentally be 11:53 due to your high resolution settings? In reality you are running up against the Android 4GB video recording limit? Like if you set it for 720p or more efficient codec you could record more than 11:53? (see post below)
I didn't even know about this 4GB limit until the other day... How do people record concerts then?
Recording with stock app limit on 4 GB

Hi! I'm getting a V30 this week and I also plan to do a lot of video recording with it so this is of interest to me. I did bump into the 4GB file size limit on Android as well when recording long videos with other Android phones such as my V10. First I thought it would have something to do with FAT32 storage format which has a 4GB file size limit but after doing some research it seems it's not related to FAT32 but a (arbitrary?) limitation of the Android OS. However, some Android phone makers seem to be able to tweak the OS in such a way that you can record beyond 4GB, for instance Sony (tested it on a Xperia XZ).
Regarding the V30, I just happened to come across this recent thread which is talking about a new OS update for the V30/V30+ bringing features of the newer V30 ThinQ to the older V30(+): https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v30/how-to/oreo-update-ai-camera-t3760379. Now the interesting thing is that one of the new features listed says "Google Drive supports downloading files larger than 4GB". It could be nothing after all but maybe, just maybe, this also means that Android on the V30 now generally copes with files larger than 4GB and that this will also affect recording video with the native app.
Other than that, a few thoughts how to tackle the problem:
- Judging from my experience with the V10, the native camera app of the V30 should have the option to change the recording bitrate. If you can live with a lower bitrate for your video, you can squeeze out a couple of more minutes recording time. On the V10 I was able to record over 1 hour in 720p resolution with the low bitrate setting.
- I don't have the V30 yet, but maybe the native app (or some 3rd party recording app) has the option to record with the newer H.265/HEVC video codec instead of the (still) common H.264. The superior compression of H.265 will allow you to have a much smaller file size while keeping the quality, ergo you will be able to record a lot longer even if the 4GB file size limit continues to exist.
- OpenCamera is only one of the 3rd party camera apps that support auto-restart: If you find the audio to be terrible you could also check out "Cinema FV-5" or "Filmic Pro".
That being said, I'm glad to hear that on the V30, the native app at least seems to automatically restart after reaching the file size limit. On the V10, you have to manually push the record button again which is annoying when you just want to place the camera somewhere and keep it running while you have other things to do.
Still, let's hope Android get rid of this limitation asap!

[Q] Snapchat video recording issue in most ROM's

On our beloved S3's, one feature in most ROM's has an issue with Snapchat.
Let me explain: With our phone, snapchat has two limitations on video recording. 10 second time limit, and a size limit of (I think) 6mb. Once it reaches one of these two limits, the video stops recording.
Normally this wouldn't be a problem... Except that on most ROM's the default camera quality is vastly increased. This means that after about 3 seconds of recording a snapchat video, it reaches its size limit and stops.
Due to the popularity of snapchat, I'm sure there must be a fix out there - and if not we could make one. But for now... Does anyone have a solution? It's the only reason I'm sticking with stock ROM.

Recording with stock app limit on 4 GB

Hi guys,
I've been using iPhone since they launched and LG V30 is my first android phone.
Here is my question,
Is there a way to record more than 4 GB?
I've been using my LG V30 to record some of my music sessions and it seems that everytime file size reaches 4GB, it stops and restarts.
Stop and restart is okay but there is about 3 second missing from it.
I've tried open camera app but for some reason, audio is terrible.
Can anyone chime in and help me out with this?
Thanks alot.

Are you using the LG camera app in order to film your work or are you using the app called HD audio recorder? On my TMO V30 the HD recorder was already installed.
Next are you recording to internal storage or SD card storage?
If you have external SD card how did you initially format the card? FAT32 or EXFAT?
Answers to those questions may point you to an answer.

Okay, here's what I would do. I'd try to do a recording with the HD recording app and test to see if it allows recordings over 4gb. If so then issue is probably due to Camera app. From there if try a different camera app to test. I'd recommend the Google camera mod app available on this forum.
If the HD recording fails after 4gb then maybe system wide limitation. Do you have a AV file over 4gb? Could you connect to computer and try to copy file over to both SD and internal storage and see if you get any errors copying?

I recently realized this limitations of 4gb and there's an interruption of several seconds at least when recording 4k slog format...this is terribly disappointing.
I don't mind the 4gb size limit but how is it possible that you miss time between files?
Infuriating.

Video recording 4Go FAT32 limit?

Hey guys,
Since yesterday I'm trying to make "long" videos (~one hour) in HD1080p quality and everytime the size of the video exceed or is near 4Go the recording stops saying limit is reached.
Of course I tried to store in both internal memory and SD card the result is obviously the same.
So my question: is it possible to start a new file (recording) automaticaly? cause if the limit is FAT32 I'm afraid there is no alternative.
May be there is?
By the way, I'm using LineageOS 15.1 2018.02.18-UNOFFICIAL-mido and the default cam recorder.
Thx for your help.
Best regards

You could use google cam to actually record better. (At 60 fps) and possibly you can record more than hour long videos.

Lag and lost frames in youtube hdr

hello to all, greetings from Spain, I open this issue because since last Friday I am the new owner of lg v30, but I have a problem that I do not like at all, and I would like to know if the same thing happens to you too
on YouTube, I've put some videos of these shows to see the screen and others, and I noticed that the videos in 1080p60 are pretty lag, and quite annoying frame losses, like stoppages, (in one of Youtube videos, a demo of LG, a red car comes out, and happens to be next to the camera and the next frame is already 2 meters, I do not know if I explain) and I'm quite fussy about this issue, what I put the same video to 1080p also in a leeco le pro 3, and it looks fluidisimo, perfect .... why can this be? Someone else happens?
I do not know if you can put links, if you can please tell me and I'll post the video so you can try it if you can see it well
Another question, does your phone heat up? is that I notice it hotter than the leeco, as soon as I put some video like this 1080p60 gets tempered by the area of ​​the camera, I do not know if that is normal or not
Thank you very much and hopefully answer
Happens to me too. I also tested this on a Galaxy S8 and it has identically bad performance. It probably also happens on the Note 8. 1080p30 HDR runs fine though. I didn't notice any heating - maybe just slightly warm but could as well be from my hands. Was the other phone you tested HDR capable?
I don't know if I can help you at all, but perhaps if you fill in some blanks, others might.
1) What model phone do you own and what firmware are you on (stock, stock rooted, custom ROM, etc)? You can check your firmware under Settings.
2) Can you link us to a video that's giving you problems?

hello, thank you very much for answering
1) my phone is lg v30 h930, stock, just removed from the box without touching anything, and the software version is V21w-EUR-XX
2) this problem happens to me in all the videos that I play on YouTube 1080p60 HDR (if I put the same video in 720p60 HDR the problem improves a lot, it becomes almost imperceptible) but the problem is that youtube does not give the option to deactivate the hdr, so if the video has that option, it activates it
I give you some examples of the videos that I have tried and they are very annoying ( It does not let me put links because I have less than 10 messages, I put the description of the youtube thumbnail, the first videos come out )
on youtube put "lg oled demo ", and play the first video, which shows a teapot in the thumbnail, and the video that shows a butterfly in the thumbnail, both are 4k Hdr 60fps
the phone I have it all activated, the HDR, I have not activated any energy savings, this all to the maximum ... I do not know what can happen, I do not know if it is the snapdragon 835 problem that can not with so much demand .... Do you think that could be why?
I have a pocophone f1 my brother, and the same video runs smoothly, very very fluid, but does not allow HDR, but I do not want hdr only make it look fluid
I've also noticed a bit of lag in chrome, in firefox it's better to scroll
Do you think it will be solved in any way? is that if I'm not return it and buy another phone thinking, something like pocophone because they do not have that kind of budget : llorando:
thank you very much and I hope response
I just tested that first video you suggested (the one with the teapot thumbnail) and I had absolutely no issues with playback. No stutter or lag with either the video or audio.
It's perfectly smooth, and really a lovely video.
I'm not an expert on HDR (since I don't use this device to watch movies or TV shows via Netflix or any other service), but as far as I can tell, the HDR triggered properly.
I have HDR turned on Settings, of course, and it's my understanding that you can tell when HDR turns on (when you rotate to Landscape) because the white Youtube pause/play buttons (amongst others) get very bright compared to Portrait view (which is supposed to disable HDR).
I also have never had any issues with Chrome. But I don't use FireFox, so I can't really compare the two.
I'm using an American open market US998 LG V30 on stock 20D (an old firmware from around June/July 2018), rooted.
I plan on updating my phone to the newest stock firmware one of these days, but haven't gotten around to it.
I have no idea what's going on with your phone. I understand it's new.
Maybe try checking to see if there's an OTA firmware update ready for you to install? (You might be running system software even older than mine, with a flawed HDR implementation).
Maybe there are some bloatware apps that came with your phone that are impacting performance.
Perhaps a factory reset could help?
I'm sorry I can't be of more help.
Que tengas buena suerte.
When i Am on STOCK ROM there is stutter and lag..
Install A CUSTOM ROM (tested on dot os) The colors still look vivid and plays smooth!! Absolutely no lag
I have had this issue since I first took my V30 out the box. Have the latest update for stock ROM/ VS996/Verizon. I gave up trying to troubleshoot this issue.
im using vanced as default YouTube app. it has an option to enable VP9 codec, that'll make your playback smoother even at 1440p60fps. But it kill HDR (but the color still the same tho). Shame, that V30 couldn't play HDR, because this phone is one of YouTube Signature Devices https://devicereport.youtube.com/phones/lg_v30.
Update: When I play that "lg oled demo" video, it doesn't stutter, I don't notice any of them. But when play "peru hdr" it stutter a lot. I'm using H932 latest stock. Try to activate that VP9 codec if you don't want HDR after all. Also, I don't use Chrome anymore, I disable it and using others. try Kiwi or Brave both are chromium based if you prefer chrome-like interface. If Firefox feels better so stick with it.
Just turn off hdr in display settings, every lg v30 has this problem. I think it's because hw decoder cannot keep up so this problem applies to every snapdragon 835 phone. Hw is capable of 1080p30fps HDR in vp9, 1080p60fps HDR is on the limit and can drop frames. HDR is gimmick for me, it is not well implemented. The quality is much worse than normal videos. For me bigger problem is that oled screen cannot reproduce dark colors because of low uniformity when pixels are barerly turned on and very slow response time in that matter too but that's for another topic.

Screen Recorder that Doesn't Lock FPS to 60?

I have been looking for a screen recorder that can not only record internal audio (even for some apps that don't natively support it like the built-in Samsung screen recorder) but would also not cap my frame rate at what is apparently 60 FPS but looks more like 48 FPS. I am not sure why recording with the built-in recorder is so choppy when all it should be doing is recording at 60 FPS. I understand that recording at 120 FPS is kind of unreasonable for a mobile device, even one of this caliber, and that is not what I am asking for. All I want is to be able to screen record 60 FPS videos while having the smoothness and responsiveness of the 120hz display. I could just use the built-in one, but with that FPS cap, it makes anything I attempt to record feel choppy and makes the tablet feel not as responsive.
The one app I tried that seem to fit the bill was this, but trying to record with internal audio enabled just crashes the app. This is also probably because of Android 12. A lot of other apps either try to lock internal recording behind a paywall or do not record the inernal audio at all for some apps (but it would record just fine with the built-in samsung recorder).
I am using a rooted Tab S7+ with Android 12, but I could flash Android 11 on it (for better compatibility with more apps). I sadly cannot flash Android 10 since I have a U2 bootloader, and all Android 10 firmware for the S7+ are for U1 bootloaders (as far as I know). From what I've heard, downgrading bootloaders is not possible. ;-;
Now, with all of that being said, if any of you have any recommendations for screen recorders that allow you to use the 120hz display while recording internal audio, or have any fixes or workarounds for the official Samsung screen recorder, please let me know. This is one of the very few issues I have with the Tab S7+, and for all I know, there is a solution for it, I just do not know it yet.

I tried using this one but it doesn't seem to record the internal audio for the games I wish to record audio in. Do you know of any workarounds or something I can do with root to be able to do this?

This is doesnt seem to work either. The plugin app requests root permission and asks me to reboot, but when I do, the option never enables. The internal audio option by itself also doesn't seem to work.
Have you oneplus?
Look this feature.
I sent screen recorder clip to you.
Oneplus has very good screen recorder.
You can change microphone sound and frame 60+ and definition and record from front camera and record system sound and show touches and video coding format and is an open source app.
Only oneplus phone, can download this app.
I can edit manifest and java (dex) to work on all Android phones.
