hi guys,
i would like to make a short "stop motion" video for my girlfriend on our 4th anniversary.. i cant do that as of the moment using x10 mini coz the video doesn't have the pause function... do you by any chance know what apk can i use for that certain function.. wish to make that by thursday..
thanks!
maybe it's not the answer you are looking for but the most easy way for making a stop motion video is by using a digital camera with a tripod. It gives you the most constant image because you can set the iso-sensivity/aperature/shutterspeed manually. and besides that, when using a tripod your camera frame doesn't move.

It's not exactly what you are looking for, but try timelapse.apk (search market). It makes time lapse videos, you can set time interval, so it will shoot a frame after desired time.
Another method is taking digital pics instead of continuous video, and import them as frames in any video editing software or Flash.
ok i got your point.. make gif instead..
is there any substitute for video capturing which has pause function? thanks again..
Hi all, I have a mod for the Potatoman/hyperX hack, which solves the 'camcorder zoomed-in at 1080p' problem, and also allows zooming at 1080p...
Because it's my first post here, I can't add a link to a new apk on the dev thread...admins, is it possible to get permission to do so?
Why don't you just paste the text for the link but with a few spaces then? It's not like people don't recognise links here just because there's a space.
Also, can't you just attach it to your post?
Sure
Download/install.
Choose 1280x720 for resolution...shoot/zoom/record etc.
Now check the properties of your recorded file...
The only catch at this stage is you lose the original 720p functionality, which wouldn't be hard to add back in with more work. Also note I'm currently using the 'super high-bitrate' settings for both the original 1080p(zoomed) mode, and this new one. I haven't had a chance to test those bitrates myself under difficult rendering conditions (daylight, detailed moving foliage/city scene etc) for stability, so can't make any guarantees in that respect.
A few commenters have mentioned being willing to donate to have this functionality, and I happen to be exceedingly broke atm Not sure if my paypal link appears yet, but any contributions would be much appreciated!
Neato burrito, but I'd like to keep my 720p functionality too. Hmm not paying for small functions like this.
Uncrippling the sgs2's fixed 2.0x zoom ratio at 1080p is a small function?

You not just taking the 720p version and resizing are you?
+ the sensor in not capable of zooming in 1080p (sensor crop) as there are no more devisions for pixel binning. So this is a digital zoom?
Post any video links as examples?
I'm sorry to say that this mod is upscaling from 720p (that you have to use to use the 1080p mod) to 1080p when you use this mod.
So the videos looks way worser than my true 1080p movies that i have recorded with my Galaxy S II.
So yeah, the mod doesn't work.
EDIT: Hold on, i'm gonna upload a short video clip to show you the difference.
EDIT 2: Here is the true 1080p recording i did on my Galaxy S II one and a half month ago. This video clip is taking 145 MB and lasts for 1 minute. Just right-click on the link and choose 'Save as'.
And here is the "fake 1080p" recording with the mod from this topic. This video clip is taking 36.5 MB and lasts for 15 seconds. Just right-click on the link and choose 'Save as' here to.

Thanks for that!
I do think the OP should mention the simple resize of 720 as not to mislead people. Especially if donations are being asked for!
Yes, you're right, deanwray and Tom-Helge.
Did some testing of my own earlier...
Ah well, was excited there for a bit.
Interesting the encoder can do different res to file on the fly, which might be useful for something or another...but that's about it.
DO NOT DONATE!

....for the ViewPad!
bootanimation for viewpad7
Since there is nothing listed here so far, ill just post my stuff here.
I've created a custom bootanimation.zip based on the dr who title sequence and tweaked it so i would run well on my viewpad.
Images are ripped from youtube video, so i can only take credit for converting and resizing them. to reduce size and speed up loading time i've reduced the images to 400x240 and stretched them out using desc.txt in the zip.
Install the bootanimation.zip using adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local/
I've also included a replacement boot sound to go with the animation. My viewpad 7 runs DearDeer.ogg from /system/media/audio/notifications/DearDeer.ogg as it's bootup sound. The only way I've found to change that is replace the file with something else of the same title.
Wow loove the boot animation!
Whats the procedure for creating it etc, I tried to edit the standard one off mine, I edit a few frames with ''stolen from ''+my address and re-saved the frames, rezipped, copied back into the phone, and it just skips my edited frames...
Whats the specific file format and what did you save the frames with/as ?
Not exactly sure what you mean, but when rezipping, have you set the compression to store ? if you compress the images in the zip they wont load.
My procedure:
1. downloaded youtube video from dr who title sequence in mp4 format.
2. Used Quicktime Pro to cut and export the video to a BMP image sequence.
3. Used Irfanview to resize the pictures to 400x240 and 256 colours to reduce size.
4. used Irfanview to convert the BMP to PNG
5. used pngout to further compress the PNG files for smallest file size
6. Downloaded a custom bootanimation.zip and replaced the png files inside.
7. Edited desc.txt in the bootanimation.zip for correct screensize

+1 nice & good start, going to try it out once DW get home as it's hers now to use.
Anyone got customized & business-like ringtones (Mp3 format?) to share - non.copyrighted ones, please - the stock ones included sounded subdued and not distinctive - not that we've planning to use it as an oversized smartphone.
TIA.

Netflix works perfectly on the Viewpad 7e.

Can you explain better the desc.txt ?
Hi all,
I'm testing what video conversion settings might be good for our Mini. So far, if I use 640-320, it either doesn't fill the screen, or if it does, the people in the video look squashed...
Anyone been testing?
i actually never convert any video since most of the video format simply plays on the phone. what player do you use? i use mxvideo player, the problem when you're converting is, its squeeze the whole frame to fit into inappropriate ratio that's why everything looked squashed.
mxvideo player gives you the zoom option, and you can choose the one that fit you best(might crop the video a bit)
WOW
I just found the BEST settings! I've tried this with my ipod classic so many times and never got it perfect...but for the Mini! Try this!!
I use Format Factory. Handbrake is also good. In format factory, I found the iphone (no idea which version, doesn't say) has the same resolution) though I searched for many devices. I selected that then edited it a tiny bit:
MPEG4(DivX)
480x320
bitrate 576 (or similar)
FPS Default
Aspect Ratio Fully Expand
Sample Rate 44100
Bitrate Default
I've been testing conversion of a 2 minute trailer, you don't want to test on a full film etc. because if it doesn't work out you will waste 1-2 hours every time it's a bad conversion... I've done about 6 tests on a film trailer and this format is absolutely perfect...the entire video is on screen, nothing is squashed, the audio is so crisp and clear...wow! Time to convert en-masse!!
p.s. I have disabled auto-brightness. I highly recommend anyone wishing to convert films etc. to do that...the screen is WAY to dark without disabling auto-brightness.
Try a trailer or other short video on the above settings and see for yourself...
have yu try a full movie & whats tha outcome?
i used xilisoft video coverter 6 ..
the setting i set to Android MP4 profile ..
change the size to 720x480 with high quality
also used a little pan and scan to zoom it a little
and at 30fps..
play it to my mini with stock video player is like watching an HD movie

I have tried this with one of my favourite films and I'm delighted with the progress!
To the other guy...how's the aspect ratio? Nobody is squashed? I'd like to try that too!

If you're asking me ..the aspect ratio is 16:9 ..but when i use pan and scan effect ..it will make it fit to screen without nobody squashed as in because its zoom
Hi guys, i'm making a bootanimation of god of war(love that saga) from a video but the zip weight is so high 42MB. The thing i wanted to ask is that if there's anyone who knows how can i reduce the weight and also if there's a problem with the weight or if it doesn't matter
Thanks in advance, regards.

I think the size is not interest , but you should make it 320 X 480
and all done

42mb for a bootanimation is HUGE
How many frames is it & what res/dimensions are the frames?
What size in kb are the frames?
How long does the bootanimation run for?
I'm curious because an average boot animation frame at 320x480 is around 25kb
42mb = 430008kb, which based on average bootanimation frame size = 17200 frames
At 30fps that would be a 10 minute animation

It has almost 200 frames with res of 320x480, the frames weight between 30kb and 200 i think that's probably cuz i save each frame from the video (with camtasia) when i make the frames with ps weight like 10kb
Do u know if the zip weight affects something?
Thanks both of u

I'm no expert but with a 42mb bootanimation zip it's going to make your rom about 30-35% larger and use up 42mb more of your internal storage.
Maybe you can compress the file size of the larger frames down
For example, if the frames are .png format use something like http://tinypng.org/ to compress the image
It can compress file size by about 60-70%
Firstly try if the bootanimation works...if everything u've done is good and also if u hav some free space for bootanime then try to use it. Also if size matters do as the above post says..optimize ur pngs...
