I'm seeing conflicting information regarding the 2D video recording, some info states that the Evo records at 30fps, but I've also seen 24fps mentioned. Also seen mention that it records at 720p, then also 1080p. I'm confused!
Can anyome confirm either as being correct?
Anyone?

Here is a great review about out HTC EVO 3D... Look at the Camera paragraph...
http://www.techtree.com/India/Reviews/Review_HTC_Evo_3D/551-116000-614.html
Thanks for the lnk to the info.
The phone can record 720p video at 30 fps. The clips are saved in the MP4 format, which is a big improvement over the Sensation's 3GP. The resulting clips are pretty smooth and contain a reasonable level of detail. Additionally, stereo sound recording is a nice feature. Strangely, despite having a dual-core CPU under the hood, the phone cannot record video in 1080p. As before, recording videos in 3D produces fun results

Just got back from my local Carphone Warehouse, they have the Evo and the info show on the display say's '1080p video recording'.
Hi, I've been trying to stream from ice stream app to my evo/tv via mhl adapter the video quality on the phone is great but on my 40" HDTV its really pixelated.
I've tried different Alps like mx and mono player but all seem to compress the video. Is there any way to not loose the stream quality from phone to TVs
Thanks

Maybe stream quality is not good?
not sure if it works for all tvs but on samsung tvs there is an info button that will tell you about the resolution and hz. the resolutioiin you probably know about but the hz is also important. hz indicates the maximum framerate of the input. it should be 1080p @ 60hz.
You don't need two threads for this

Chances are its the source and not the connection or player. The evo's screen resolution is less than hd, so it would look better on the evo than big tv if the resolution is smaller. Try a local file to compare and make sure it's not really a connection issues.

Have had the best luck with serviio (free) and videos etc streaming from PC on 51" panasonic (not the best TV) are as good as anything else out there IMO. Just easier to transfer to PC and run from there...quality is MUCH better

I think its the 3d or maybe the mhl adapter/cable coz when i try to mirror a HD video (1080p) on my tv it lags and looks pixelated too....it lags on evo 3d as well.
Same video looks great when played through a pendrive on TV.
I think when using MHL the refresh rate is 24hz hence less fps.
But dont know what is the video quality issue here.
I play netflix, 1080p & 720p locally stored files, YouTube and various other sources. Locally stored content plays perfect. Netflix is watchable but not same as hd from computer to tv. This is bc some sources stream lower res/lower bit rate to ur phone bc its a phone. Not an hdmi mhl issue

Anyway to load and play digital copies onto our android phones? I have the htc evo 3D.
They purposely put them in wmv to screw with us. Plus, the digital so FUC*ING COPY ISN'T EVEN IN 3D! which pisses me off! you have to convert it to MP4 also I think it needs to be side by side and not top and bottom.
BUT IF ANYONE KNOWS IF TOP/BOTTOM WORKS... LET ME KNOW!
but you may use "handbrake" to convert it. it is free. 9.6 is the most recent copy I do believe as of today.
Use Handbrake to convert to an h.264 codec in an mp4 container. You should use the original resolution of the file to keep the aspect ratio intact. However, digital copies are usually very low resolution. You will get MUCH better quality, even on this small of a screen, if you rip the dvd/blu-ray and convert that.
DARN IT! I don't have a blueray player in my computer! lol. only in my ps3! errrrrrr haha. don't even try converting the DVD. DVD's suck and aren't even 720 or 1080i/p

Correct. But they are 480p, which is way better of a resolution than the digital copies most movies come with.
Hello!
I'm asking the same question in all forums for tegra 3 devices cause I can't find any information using google.
Has anyone when connecting the prime via hdmi gotten 1080 with 24hz on your tv/display/projector/whatnot, not only 60 or 50hz?
I want to know if the Tegra 3 chip can output that kind of signal so you can get true 24p when watching movies.
I have not tested it myself, but my understanding is that the Prime will output 1080P video via the HDMI connection, as long as the video is on the Prime or SD card. I would assume that you'd be able to get higher frame rates if your video file and player supported it, but I would also have to think that a 240hz, (I assume you mean 240hz, as 24hz is way low) 1080P video file would be absolutely massive once it's stretched out to a full movie length. I remember the early demo videos for the Tegra 3 showed it playing (I believe) a 4K video loop via HDMI.

Thanks for answering! I mean 24hz not 240. 24hz is the standard for movies (24fps) and modern tv's and projectors must be able to receive a 24hz (or anything dividable with 24) signal for perfect playback. I guess you're not that familiar with video standards, but anyhow, if you watch a movie with 24fps (actually movies mostly are 23.976) with 60hz you get whats called judder as it has to do a pulldown and skip a frame every 48 seconds (I'm not sure it is 48) and then you get judder. Most people don't notice it but I have an eye for details and always see when video doesn't play smooth.

Hz are not FPS. not by a long shot.
Just don't get those two mixed up.
I'm not going to argue with your statements... but your must be running crappy software if you have issues like this.

I am right, there's really nothing to argue about here, read this if you want to understand how it works http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/24p
i know what I'm talking about. Sure some tv's have a good pulldown system, but you always want to prefer 24hz when watching movies (or as said before anything dividable with 24)
i don't have any issues at all, I think you completely misunderstand everything. I run xbmc and vlc for video playback, it works awesome on my pc connected to my projector with [email protected]
and WHY I want to know if the tegra 3 can do this is because I might want to book an Ouya and it's the last week for pre-orders and I can't find any info anywhere about wether it will support 24p. XBMC will soon be released for android and if I can't use the Ouya as both a gaming console and a media player I can't motivate getting one.
why do you keep saying 24 hz?
its 60 hz, 120 hz and 240hz these are the hz frequency that modern displays use interchangeably and out of those 3, they all display 24 FPS natively unless the file source that's being broadcast (or played from disc) is streamed in a higher FPS such as 30 or 60. most shows and DVDs are in 24 FPS simply because it provides a more cinematic experience but that's it.
there is no 24 hz... you are using some terms incorrectly from reading too much online and not understanding everything.
that link you referenced us using the term 24p in reference to 24 FPS which has to do with how many frames per second display on your tv which is NOT the same as HZ.
really stinks seeing people argue like they know what they are talking about when they don't because they read on wikipedia and misinterpreted the information.

I must say your approach is really rude and arrogant, you should learn how to reason. Would you be so kind and don't "contribute" with anything more to this thread?

Unless you live somewhere not in North America, or anywhere that uses NTSC guidelines, no electronic equipment runs at 24Hz.
The stutter you claim to be able to notice just happens, and that's about all there is to it.
For someone that claims to know what they're talking about, your lack of knowledge of very basic power terms is saddening.
However... one thing that may work is 240Hz. It is both a multiple of 24 and 60, therefore A couple TVs can run at it, I don't know if the tegra3 can output it.
However, since very few TVs can run at 240Hz, I'm doubting yours can, and then since your TV can't decode 240Hz, there is no point in this discussion.

Edit - your profile says your in Sweden. You're boned. Sorry but 50Hz has pretty much no way to align with 24 in any way

120 is also a multiple of 24 . Just about all so-called 100Hz TVs sold in Europe are also 120Hz sets and will therefore handle material fed at 24fps with no issues - at least none that are related to frame rate/refresh rate issues.

Lol and to think, I'm in second year engineering. Guess that's what happens when you don't have a calculator. Lol.
The idea though is that at 60Hz, TVs display frames for 2-3-2-3....4 cycles, and this is what he's referring to. He wants to get rid of the extra frames and such.
Since its all dependent on the power fed into the TV, at 100Hz there is no way to eliminate the 3:2 cadence.

John Carmack uses Hz and fps interchangeably.

Fundamentally, you can get one frame per cycle. However, if the frame rate is low, the display will show the same frame for multiple cycles.

Edit - sorry. Displays show one frame per cycle. If the frame rate of the driving thing, movie or game or whatever is lower, the display will show the same frame for multiple cycles.
Edit 2 - the op mentions his PC driving his projector at 24Hz, but does not mention if its over HDMI, VGA or any derivative there of (DVI)
Afaik, HDMI does not allow one to modify the frequency.
Thread ressurection "rise from the dead".
of course 24hz IS 24fps ON the screen you are viewing. but that doesnt mean that the video was filmed in 24fps (almost all movies are though...although Hobitt is 48fps).
To be clear. If I take my Blu-ray and play it through my PC output at 24hz to my Vizio TV which can indeed display 24Hz, then bingo! I get a 24fps movie playing at a matched 24hz TV image (which flashes 24 times second). This synchonisity creates a very "movie like" experience.
Now, can a Nexus output at 24hz and do you have a cut that runs from a player at 24fps? I'm not sure. But Blu-rays will tell you is they work at 24hz (like Blad Runner does) and if you blu ray player outputs 24hz and your tv accepts 24hz, then your 24fps movie will look like it does in the theatre.
My samsung galaxt note 2 has a power saving move which cuts down the screen hz from 60 to 30 (or something like that) to save battery...so I know hz adjust,ent is possible ON the phones screen...but I imagine that its the video player itself and the hdmi out that handles sending a signal out at a specific hz.
I'm gonna dig arouund and look for a hack.
