Video quality after ICS OTA - Motorola Droid RAZR

I've noticed after the ICS OTA update that my video quality isn't nearly as crisp and clear on both youtube and netflix as it was on gingerbread. I'm streaming videos over a 4g connection and I have the HQ option checked on my youtube app. Has anyone else noticed this issue yet? Is there a fix?

It streams clearer on wifi than on LTE.

That may be the case, but that's not what I'm referring to. Before, when I was on gingerbread, if I was in an LTE area videos from both netflix and youtube would stream at a very crystal clear quality. Now that I'm on ICS I'm noticing a lower quality in the videos from both of those applications while in the same LTE scenario. Has anyone else noticed this? Or am I the only one?

I have no idea if potatoman's custom camera mod has any flaws,
but I do know for a fact that the stock camera in our SGS2 phones
do achieve the full 30fps in all video recording modes except in the
very highest HD video mode where it only achieves approx 25fps
which is really excellent too.
Check it out yourselves using a windows app called MediaInfo, it's a
free download: http://www.videohelp.com/tools/MediaInfo
It adds an option in explorer so when you right click on a video file it will
add an option called "mediainfo" and all you do is click that and a box will
popup with useful information about the video including exact frame rates.
Okay did a evening video on windows 7 just looking at properties was 26fps maybe the lighting did it will do a day video put it to my PC and see what the fps are thanks for the reply

When you do make these new fps tests, be sure to make two of them.
One at the highest video settings which is HD 1080p it's at the top of the
list which normally is the default setting.
Then go down one step to the second choice in the list which is HD 720p.
You will find that the HD 720p setting will achieve the full 30fps while
the the highest settings HD 1080p in the list achieves at least 25fps.
(which is very good too)
Okay I am aware of this the mod I spoke of guess you 30fps on highest setting 1080p which is what I was wondering if anyone has tested it seems I might be the first also will back up current files

Camera on that particular rom seems snappier and higher clarity.
Haven't tried any videos yet I know pic quality is awesome but need to do a video for it I did read audio is better

Did anyone ever try this out for the I777? I noticed on Potatoman's old thread that he now recommends the lgcamera app from the market. Is this hack baked into any of the roms here, or was that just something that the OGS2 devs added?
I use to use that camera in my rom but it had issue with 1080p focusing and also had audio/video sync issues. I believe that was due to the fps hack.
So I modded mine to up the audio only for both 720p/1080p.

Moblynx has taken the ICS camera app, tweaked it with some added features, and added support for 2.2/2.3 phones. There is a free version with ads or $.99 for the non-ad version. IThere's a short review over on Android Central, and it's called "Camera ICS" on the market. I'd post links but I can't do that yet.

Video Chat

Who knows how to do it. I have yet to find it. Having came from a Mytouch 4G that had a couple of specific video chat apps for it. Thanks in advance !!

You can try Qik, Skype, Tango or Oovoo. I've heard good things about all 4 of them.

G+ Messenger has Hangouts built in now. You don't have to join one you can create one.
Just within the last week or so, Skype updated their Android app. Video chat now works on my Rezound. Before the recent update, the video would cause an almost instant Force Close on this device. I tested with someone and it works. Both LQ and HQ video modes. Although when I had it in portrait mode, the display was a bit squished. Sized improperly. Hopefully Skype fixes this soon. The audio quality I had in Skype was outstanding. Sure beats crappy compressed 8khz phone call audio...
Skype all the way, not sure what others case is, but my experience is excellent. Screen looks right, doesn't crash, audio is great.

Video player bug

Hi!
Yesterday I started to notice that when I try to play videos even on YouTube app the video is like pushed too far up and I can only see the bottom part of the video. I have to rotate it sideways to see the whole video. It is very annoying has anybody else experienced this?

...YouTube yt3D playback doesn't work after update.

Is anyone else experiencing this after the recent software update? I mean, it used to work before the update, but now, all the yt3D videos are in split-screen rather than in true HTC EVO 3D.
I've checked the settings and I'm still baffled.
My 3D pictures in gallery still work...
