[Q] Video recording in ICS - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Since upgrading to ICS, when I record @ 720p I see that the camera has difficult in focusing and sometimes the recording is stuttering like it got slow and stuck and then it gets fine again...
any recommendation on a replace app or fix for this?

[Q] 720p Recording lag - Is it normal?

Hey everyone
I am currently on Trip's IRIS rom, and even though it is quite brilliant except for the 720p recording. No matter what I do, closing down every process I can, the 720p recording lags like no tomorrow. When previewing AND playing on my PC, it pauses on multiple frames for 5 seconds and then skips onto next ones. Any suggestions?
Get a better SD card?
But it shouldn't be a problem, I have a very basic micro SD card and it doesn't lag or skips too many frames when recording at 720p, and I'm also on Trip's ROM.
Nevermind
Never mind people, the camera was by default set to Infinity focus which was beating the living soul out of the hardware. I changed it to Continuous and its working brilliantly.

Camera Recording

Hi,
I've recently noticed that sometimes when recording movies, the sound in the videos is distorted and are not sync well. This happens especially when switching from good lighting condition to lower light. Is it a process running in the background that is making the recording laggy?
Thanks.
Yes i notice that to after recorded a video i watch what i record and yes the sound is distorted but only sometimes, don't know why, what firmware do you have?
Any news??
Sent from my HTC Bliss using XDA App
i've tried it with 319 and 351 with the same problem. What firmware do u have?

[Q] Good Video recorder for ICS ROM

Hi Everyone ;
I am using bezke ICS ROM which is an AOKP ICS 4.0.4 ROM. Recently I recorded some videos and after I watched them on my PC, I found out they are quite laggy I compared them with my some older videos which were smooth with same 720p resolution. one thing that I noticed was that smooth videos which were recorded by another ROM have 3gp extension but new laggy videos are mp4. unfortunately as I am a frequent ROM changer I dont remember what ROM is used to record 3gp videos.
I hope someone can help me to resolve this issue. is it possible to change camera app to improve video quality ? is there a camera app which records in 3gp format ?
Regards

You have tons of camera apps out there, LGCamera is really liked amongst people who hate their Camera, otherwise you have ICS Camera... Camera Zoom Pro...

Yes , LGCamera didnt work. the ROM laggy camera is still better than LGCamera,ICS Camera, Camera Zoom and etc.
When I downgrade the quality to SD the lag goes away completely. isnt it possible to use GB ROM cameras on CM 9 ?
LGcamera work great with AOKP same with ICS Camera (resurrection rom)

Problem with video playback

Hi,
I am running my SII on 4.0.1 and I am very frustrated with its performance on video recording and playback (the problem existed on the 2.3 OS version too).
Bascally if I try to watch a clip on YouTube (does not matter if I am on wifi on 3G) the movie will start showing nicely but very quickly the sound will continue to run smoothly but the image will freeze and then will jump back to sync with the audio and then freeze again etc. - so you can't see a nice smooth playback. It does not matter if the video is fuly downloaded.
If I record a movie using the camera - I will get a choppy video with freezes. This is really frustrating and I wonder if other have experience the same problem and more importantly if there is a solution for this annoyng problem.
Thanks in advance,
Itay

[Q] YouTube video frame skip?

Does anybody else notice YouTube skipping frames (video only) when it changes the video resolution automatically to compensate for your internet speeds? Is there a setting change that can fix this?
It doesn't matter whether it's increasing or decreasing the resolution (144p, 240p, 360p. 480p, 720p, 1080p). The video freezes for like a second while audio continues as it normally should. Then the video catches up and is in sync with audio again..at least until it changes resolution again.
Noticed it on Sony's stock KitKat, rooted KitKat, and rooted Lollipop firmwares. This doesn't happen to my smartphone which runs on older hardware.
