this phone is starting to get frustrating!!!
so how come i can not upload a video straight to facebook directly using the built-in camcorder software. There is the option for youtube, but not facebook!
If you are suggesting third party software...this is so much more inconvenient! This means after taking say 5 videos, I have to open another program and search for each one, one by one...and then upload it?
Don't think this has anything to do with the phone itself. It's the facebook app that doesn't support it.
iPhone 4
everyone says the iPhone 4 is easier to use than android...i wonder if the iphone 4 allows users to send videos directly to facebook using the built-in camcorder software.
GPS issues and battery life with the Vibrant...now this, is making me think about switching to the iphone 4.

Hey, someone over in the EVO forum posted the new yahoo messenger app that includes video chat from the leaked mytouch HD ROM. It appears to function using the rear camera on the vibrant.
Haven't been able to test it out fully yet cause I don't know anyone who actually uses yahoo messenger.
Hopefully someone can get this working with the FFC Mod as it should allow phone to computer video chat.

Likely the build.prop will needed edited like it does for fring & tango to work correctly with the FFC mod.
ill try it out i still use yahoo messenger
tested on vibrant.....quality sucks but it works for sure but both parties should have camera
So its only two way.
it works its a step forward thats for sure it looks like you have a option to switch cameras aswell on it
Combine this with the TV Out option and should even allow you to see the screen while you faced the rear camera toward you in a dock or something. An obvious advantage would be no computer / PC webcam needed at least.
I have tried to sign in with my screen name and my wives. The app always says that there have been too many sign in attempts and that the login from the device has been temporarily disabled.
me and my friend tried it (both with vibrant FFC Mod) after changing the build.prop and it works but doesn't seem to detect FFC. It uses the rear camera and not able to switch between front and rear cam even though I see the option to. Tango works however
Tried this yesterday between a PC and my Vibrant on 3G. Works great, but only with rear camera. Haven't done the FFC mod. Video quality is so-so, but I'm glad to have something that I can talk to my PC buddies with (still mourning the loss of Skype in Fring). The video is a plus. Can't wait for this to become a public app.
So I was just on the tmobile site looking at the Streak 7 and while reading the description it said
Talk Live with T-Mobile® Video chat powered by Qik™ with front and rear-facing cameras

I tried looking on the android market, but the version on there doesn't have a video calling feature. Is there an .apk for it floating around?
I really want to try this as it has much more features (and better quality possibly) than Fring.
floating around right here....
just hit thanks button!
Thanks!
But this doesn't have the video call option?
probably not for us streakers... sorry.
email the Qik team and tell em to get going with an update damnit.
We should send them a bunch. Video calling in the states is lagging SO far behind the UK.
I hope someone develops an IM program that supports the streaks FFC too. The yahoo apps webcam support is a joke. I was getting like 1 frame/5 seconds and at really low res

Fring? have you tried that?
Sorry I should have specified, an IM program that supports video calling to other IM services on the computer (AIM, YAHOO, MSN, etc.) I have fring for video calling already
I've tried Movicha and for whatever reason the PC only receives the audio from the gTablet, not the video.
I've also tried vTok. I'm able to get A/V on both devices but the picture is rotated on its side (and, no, turning the camera doesn't work).
I just now tried Yahoo Messenger as well and it has the same issues as Movicha (though I realize it's in beta and only officially supports the MyTouch 4G and EVO)
Is there any other way to do video chat with a PC on the gTablet?
I don't know what to use either. Been messin with video chat between gtab and PC all week.
What I've discovered:
Yahoo --> PC works kinda
I could never get the video addon to mesh with the yahoo msngr app quite right, had to reinstall for every use on tnt lite and with vegan 5 won't work at all
when it did work audio was unreliable and video eventually got unusable
vTOK --> best audio but video was atrocious
movicha --> seems like it would be best but I have same problem you do and can't receive audio from pc to droid either (dont have web cam to test right now).
I guess fring worked with skype last year until skype pulled support so verizon could have exclusive access or some BS like that.
In other words bad news all around
Try tango
Edit: Sorry looks like its cross mobile platform but not on pc

Here is a version of yahoo messenger that works.
PS - If at first it doesn't work, change to back cam and then back. Or shake the device. Or do something. If you just give up after 2 seconds of trying, I highly recommend you get the ipad.

Yes.................
I read that Skype finally updated their Android app to allow video calls. We use skype on the netbook, and I look forward to being able to use it on the gtablet soon for video.
Has anyone tried the new release of Skype yet?
At this point in time its only for gingerbread and is available for only four devices.

Couldn't it be tricked to work by some build.prop edits like netflix app ?
I'm taking a week of classes for work and would like to record the lectures (it is allowed) on video. While recording, I want to supplement the video with handwritten notes where appropriate. Has anyone seen an app that allows you to take notes that synchs with the video?
Thanks -
I too am in search of the perfect solution for taking lecture notes/audio/video. I've spent the last two days reading, searching, and testing apps. So far the best solution I have found is an app that will let me record audio while typing text notes (although my ATP's mic is terrible). The only solution I could come up with is to record video from my Razr and stitch the notes and video together after the class in Evernote or something similar.
I read at some point in the past two days about ICS not allowing the camera to operate in the background while using another app or when the screen turns off (tablet sleeps). I got burned on an app purchase because of this. The dev said it would still record while I did other things because the app ran as a "service". It didn't... cam stream would shut down if app wasn't active on the screen and it never would record to SD. I'm not going to name-and-shame the app here, but it seems we're both SOL for the moment. I'd sell a kidney to have an app that would allow video, external mic audio, and typed notes at the same time.
I have no idea if this will work or not, but it's worth a shot for you guys wanting this.
This is my idea:
Install "OverSkreen Browser", it's basicly an internet browser that works like a browser does on a PC, it adds a layer on top of the screen where the browser is in. So you can launch (for example) Youtube app, and have the OverSkreen browser sit on top of the YouTube app, being able to interact with both of the apps.
I do not know if this also works with the camera, but try it out
Just install the browser, set it up, launch the browser, click on home, launch the camera, press recent apps (or click the notification that comes up with overskreen browser) and click on it.
That would possibly allow you to record while also being able to take note in for example Google Docs.

Well... the good news is that the Overskreen browser actually worked. I could successfully record 720p HD video in the background while running Evernote in the Overskreen browser.
The bad news is that the web version of Evernote sucks equally well in both the stock browser and Overskreen. I will have to find another web-based note taking solution if I'm going to solve my video recording problem while taking notes. Perhaps I might try Google Docs or SpringPad. SpringPad's new interface for taking lecture notes just doesn't look like it will work though.... since it's been Pinterest-ified.
On a side note, I was able to use Gmail successfully while recording 720p video in the background using Overskreen with minimal input lag... so there is hope.
Any other suggestions on quality web-based note taking apps?
I just got my new galaxy note (i717) on friday (immediately flashing it with OnlyOne beta 2 (ics)) and I would like to use it for a bit of podcasting using the front camera to record myself while I read text from some teleprompter software.
I can record video from the front camera just fine, and it actually comes out a bit higher quality than I expected even, but for the life of me, when i hit the record button and then switch away from the camera app to the prompter app, it gives me an audio notification that the camera has stopped recording.
is there prompter software that has an integrated video recorder? (that'd be pretty sweet imho) or better, some way to record video while another app (that's not particularly resource intensive) is in use? - I don't mind trimming and cutting the video together (there are actually some pretty decent editing tools for android i've found) but I can't figure out a way to record and prompt at the same time...
does anybody have any ideas?
I'm rather surprised that nobody seems to have any ideas on this... could someone at least please relay to me why this isn't possible (if it's not possible)?
I would think that this would be a reasonably popular thing to do (recording video whilst looking at a prompter or even a web page or something to do podcasting stuff...
Is this something I'm going to have to write? (I have no idea how to dev android apps).
well i'm glad to see that google does a good job at finding appropriate threads - here it is, a couple of months later, and I'm revisiting the same problem that I had before - I still can't record and prompt at the same time on my i717 (now running cm9 / cm10, not that it should matter)... I still don't get it.
i don't know what to say , u searched a program on google?i believe that is here at least 1 program for your note
Video app with built in teleprompter
There is a great teleprompter/video recording app. It's called VRT2. Unfortunately you would have to downgrade to an iPad to get it. When I saw it, I was tempted o make the switch, but I don't want to give up the advanced features of my Samsung Note 10.
I'm hoping that a great Android app developer will create something like the VRT2 soon.
When it's ready, I'm ready to buy it.
I still can't seem to find anything that does this and it would be *great* for quick video podcasting... I just want to be able to record myself on the front camera while either reading my notes or looking at a teleprompter with the outline i've created for the segment.
Video recorder teleprompter
Have you found any other software to video you with front facing camera with teleprompter on screen?
I know Ipad have one on itunes costing somewhere 24 dollars or £18 which is a professional one, not tried it but I now it does record you and at the same time has all the words you want to talk about in front of you.
Keep up to date, I don't know which tablet to buy because of this problem.
