Hi everyone, been lurking here for a while and decided to finally register but I'm having a weird problem with 4.2 camera. Everything works perfect except the video recording. It'll record the sound but when I try to play it it looks like this (I been searching for a few hours now and can't find a soulution other than dead links)
and if I lower the resolution to 720 or sd it says Cannot play video. Any idea of what I'm doing wrong or what I can do to fix this? I had the slimbean and had it working but now on cm10 its not. :crying: does anyone have 4.2 camera working on cm10? Thanks in advance.

hey guys,
I rooted my friends sgs2 and couldn't get two things to work. the portable WiFi hotspot keeps getting an error when i try to click on the check-mark. the second one is the video camera doesn't work. he's running the cm7 (not nightly) is there a ROM that has a working video cam?
thanks
I'm also running CM7 (not nightly). I believe the exact rom I flashed was from this thread (update-cm-7.1.0-RC1-Galaxys2ATT) and the video camera works fine. I just tested to confirm, I was able to record video with both front AND back cameras.
That said, I've heard that CM7 doesn't support 1080p video recording even when the camera IS working.
File this under Stupid Questions. But i've been using the 4.2 camera (with photosphere) since it was released and only just wanted to shoot video with it. I go about shooting a 9 minute clip and can't for the life of me find out where the video was stored. Is there a bug with this cam and videos? Or am i just missing the storage location completely? No clues in the settings of the camera. I'm at a loss as to where my video went. Could someone enlighten me?
/sdcard/dcim/camera but i dont think video is working. at least it doesnt for me. only get a file when shooting 1080 but it is messed up. 720 and 480 wont even save a file for me.
Guys, this is a known bug. 4.2 video cam does not work. A quick search would have gave you this answer.

video not working is a known bug but he was asking where the files are stored. i just added that extra info.
Hello everyone,
I'm currently on the stock rooted rom and there is something that's bothering me. When I record a video(I'm using full hd 1080p version), the camera isalways trying to make the focus even when it's already in focus.
I've tried to find a setting like auto-focus but I can't see it. Does anybody else is having the same issue?
thanks
hi guys, this may have been better in the development forum, but because I don't post on xda, I cannot post a reply there.
I'm having an issue with the camera on my Evo 3D GSM, specifically with recording videos. Taking stills is perfect.
Whenever I try to shoot video, the camera app crashes and the phone restarts. In 720p, this is almost instant, whereas in 480p it will record for around a minute normally. Now and then, it will record, but normally the video is glitchy, and often displays "this video cannot be played" before the end, even when it does record fine, which is rarely.
My first thought was that it may be an issue with the SD card. I tried with a class 10 16GB and still had the same problem. I also tried flashing various ROMs (JB, ICS) and all of them have the same issue. I also tried clearing the data and cache for the gallery app, and trying a 3rd party camera app which acted in the same way.
I thought maybe it was an issue with my device, but the camera works fine on sense based ROMs. AOSP 4.2 by helicopter88 will record in 480p just fine. CM10/10.1 record 480p for normally up to a minute, AOKP crashes both on 480 and 720. I also thought that it want an isne with the ROMs, but no one else using the ROMs (Disarmed Toaster, Gangnam Style and helicopter88's stuff) has reported the same issue.
any advice or suggestions from more experienced Android users is appreciated. ask if you need more information. thanks
Some evo's have more problems with the camera then others. I for one was somehow lucky enough to get a phone that has zero recording issues. Some people have scanline problems. You mentioned that Sense based roms work. The Buttered Toast kernel has a fix for the camera on AOSP/AOKP, so flashing that kernel might help. I don't know if it will also fix CM roms or not, but its worth a try?
Hello, i have some strange bug with stock Samsung camera app. Video is recorded with inverted audio channels. I have stock firmware. I had this problem on every firmware since 4.0.4. Also i looked a some "SGS3 Camera video testing" videos on youtube - they have this problem too, but nobody notices! Yes, my PC audio has a right orientation and yes - during recording video i hold the phone with "Home" button on the right side.
I found thread that is SGS2 users had this too, but there is no info... I cant find nothing more, sorry if it was already asked. Is anyone else experiencing this problem?
(Sorry for my bad english)
