[Review] 960fps Slow Motion - Xiaomi Mi 8 Guides, News, & Discussion

Hi guys, in this video i show you the new 960fps slow motion feature on the Xiaomi Mi 8.
I'm using the Global Developer 8.11.29
Officially the Xiaomi Mi 8 supports up to 240fps but with the new updates we have the possibility to record at 960fps.
With this modality we can record about 5 seconds and the first seconds of the final clip will be played at normal speed and the final seconds will be played in slow motion.
The video quality is 1080p. So i was very excited...at the beginning.
But as i suspected... the video aren't in 960fps, but everything is slowed down by software.
So probably it's a 240fps fps slowmotion and then we have a digital editing that applies a kind of plugin, as the famous Twixtor and Optical Flow for computers.
So at the end the result is ugly too see and you need perfect conditions to achieve a good effect.

I think that if Xiaomi realease the 4k60fps feature we can make some good video!

try using ''MX Player Pro'' ?
@DUHAlgerianSkills Yes, but same... I think you have t800: as hardware is same, do you have freezes?
You need a 13 megapixel or higher camera to record in 4k resolution. All versions of the Tab S only have an 8 megapixel camera so it is not possible.

Ummmm..... the resolution of the screen is 1600x2560 for both tablets. Neither tablet supports video out (through an adaptor) at anywhere close to 4k resolution. So what is the point? You do not gain anything for getting a 4k video to run and you end up withna file that takes up extra space or bandwidth.
I kinda understand wanting to record 4k video, but my issue with doing thst is that if you want to record a file that is going to contain that much visual clarity you probably should pick a better camera lens then what you get on the average tablet/smartphone.
I love the screen that Samsung has put on the galaxy tab S. I love the fact my 8.4" is retina (impossible or at least very hard to notice individual pixels) at a distance of 10" (12" for the 10.5" model).

idk
I managed to record video in 4K 24fps using the open camera or LG camera app has the playstore
I know the files are huge, especially using superfine pixel resolution and other picture enhancing features. I have a Samsung NX1 camera which records 4K video, and UHD 4K, and it uses approx 100MB a minute. That's not as bad as a Red Dragon Video Camera, which records video at 250MB a second.

Video improvement

Do you think that the 4k record on mate 10 will be improved by software updates (like what op did with op5's camera)? Actually the stabilization is terrible and it also seems to have problem with focus...
I think OIS is bad in Mates, compared to other phone I have seen on YouTube.

That's why I'm still not sure if i get mate 10 or pixel 2,the video is bad on mate series compared to other phones.
Right now I'm also not sure if i get mate 10 ,the video is bad on mate series compared to other phones. If anyone have any information please share us.
I don't think the video is bad. I think the OIS is not that good but hopefully that can be fixed in a software update. Who knows.

You said "not that good".. do you mean not that good when recording 4k videos ? As far as I undertand Mate 10 has digital video stablization only @1080P/30fps and not in 4K.

Slow camera shutter / slight lag while taking photos

Hi guys,
I tried two A3 phones with September update on it and what I've noticed was the slow camera, when you click to capture the photo there is +/- 1 sec delay.
I've also switched off HDR and AI but was still the same.
My Redmi Note 4 and Samsung S8 takes photos immediately.
Did you experience it or is it fixed already?
yes there is lag in official camera app, use gcam 7, zero lag and better quality

Recording in 30 fps, shaky footage , how ?

Hi my name is Jan and i'm new on the forum, and this is my first forum thread.
So i've purchased an Oppo 10x zoom.
What i noticed is when i record a video on 30fps (doesn't matter if it's 4k or 1080p) i get very shaky footage, it's unusable.
Are there more owners who are experiencing this problem??
Thanks in advance..
If you have the chance upgrade your phone to ColorOS 7, it has a new "Super Steady Video" mode which will improve quite a lot.

Question Recording 4K 60fps in 16:9?

According to TechNick's review video, Xperia 1 III has no option to record 60fps in full 4K resolution of 3840×2160 (16:9), but only cropped 3840×1644 (21:9), even in Cinema Pro. Is this true? If so, would there be any workaround to record 3840×2160 @ 60fps? I pray someone makes a mod to unlock this functionality.

mcpro24fps this one might help, i saw ssomeone mentioned about it on youtu.be
I am waiting om my shipment, so can not verify that is a solution. Sorry
There's a free and open-source solution if the camera hardware supports 4k60 - OpenCamera. Works great with recent Sony phones because there isn't too much proprietary stuff in camera hardware.

mcpro24fps indeed is a solution.

the problem is, on my device it didn't have access to other sensors than main 24mm and the front-facing one.
I use filmic pro and mcpro24fps
