I just recently installed FXP217 to my Xperia active , so far its great experience, but just today, I just notice that it doesn't support 720p HD recording, and also the autofocus on camera doesn't work. Can anyone else tell me what other else they have removed from the ROM? aside from what is written on the working/not working list
And also, can somebody give an alternate to the camera , so that I can use 720pHD recording again? appreciate all help, Thanks :laugh: :good:
They disabled it in low level, in framework and kernel. Even if u use third party camera app its still limited to 480p only.

Some of you have noticed that videocam illusion does work on a modded X10 with 2.2 but the sound is just like the chipmunks.
Does everybody have this problem or do only some of us have this?
I like the new roms, I don't mind that I need to use different programs to take pictures and video. But I do mind that we all sound like this.
Is there a solution or do we have to learn to live with it?
I use it and got used to it (all the sound etc.)
I can't even understand what's being said
I use the app and I got used to the annoying sound.
If you buy the full version there are settings, you can change the recording speed (i believe thats the one you change) to very slow, and that fixes the voices. You only have the option to change these settings in full version though
I use the full version and with very slow recording speed (0.5), I can record very well and with good audio.
I believe that it is important to mention that this software saves the video file in .mov (quicktime) format ... with the advantages and the disadvantages of that....
I look forward to see a new version of videocam illusion able to use different video format
Too bad there's no "perfect" alternative to SE's 2.1 Camera..
Hopefully the devs can put something together when Arc is out and use its firmware

Devs will make something eventually
Hi,
I'm the developer of Videocam illusion app. I have just checked the problem ( SE X10 supports only 44.100 Hz recording). I will release a fix ASAP.

Great news.
herez the cut....am on froyobread and i actually don't like the stock camera app of Froyobread....i want 2 use the stock 2.1 update 1 SECamera app, but the camera or the camcorder is not working.
i miss the "continuous auto-focus" video recording of the stock SEcamcorder.
am presently using camera 360 ultimate as my camera app and the picture quality is pretty good. therez TONS of options to fiddle with & also a fancy (and fake) "tap to focus" . . pretty decent indeed.
but as of the camcorder, am not getting a good app....LGcamera keeps Force closing & so does the MIUI camera while recording video.
please gimme some suggestions for camcorder app. i hv searched the market fr ti, but didn't find a good susbtitute....reply guys
For me the stock camcorder app has the continous autofocus, I'm using CyaNoComb (x10MiniPro)

can u suggest which 1 i can use in froyocomb (for mini and not the mini pro)
I dunno, stock apps have never given me problems before, and the MIUI never crashed for me while fliming video (except while using its zoom function, it crashes

solved the problem man ....LG cam pro 5.95 has the continuous auto focus during video (aka, semi-continuous). it can also record videos in improved codec and bitrate
If you watch videos encoded in high quality resolutions above 854x480, H.264 or MPEG4 and a pretty high bitrate, you might notice that video playback is laggy and not fluid with custom ROMs. This flashable zip package is supposed to fix that.
Tested
Stable - Any ROM based on stock 2.3.3 (Wolfs TW Gingerbread, Blue Sparks, Ultima GB etc.)
Stable - Most xRecovery-based CM7 ROMs (ZMOD, SpaarcMOD, FreeXperia Sony UI Achotjan etc.)
Stuck on boot - MIUI ROMs
Untested
FXP CM7 (won't work anyways since it uses CWM)
Special thanks to
zdzihu
EDIT: I've uploaded a test video to check whether video decoder lag is present or not.
http://puu.sh/5j8h/SmoothnessTest.mp4 (854x480, H.264, 5 mbit/s)
If it stutters during playback, that's an indication that the video is lagging.
This fix will not eliminate the problem but will reduce the lag by a huge margin.
I noticed this while watching videos with camera panning, they looked very juddery.
Anyone tried this? Just wondering what the original problem was.

So, this should enable me (us) to play 720p Youtube vids?
never notist a problem and if there whas a problem, Z would have notist and came with the solution.
I think i would not flash this before making a back up.

You already play hd youtube.
Guys, please play the video in the OP on your phone and see whether it lags or not.

Why do you feel like discouraging people who try to offer something to the community?
On the one hand, there are tons of threads in General section
whining about people moving on from the X10 and development stalling,
and then there are post like yours... It's just not right.
Anyway, @OP, I played the test video and noticed no lags.
Could you explain what is it that you changed in the .so libraries please?
And why some people have the issue and others don't?
Thank you very much!
Okay. Downloaded the files. Tested the video. It does stutter a little.
Tested with scary gov. Running video twice... 22sec at 128mhz. And none over 500mhz! So its not decoding over cpu
P.s. Yes, also did with performance. Same problem.
Now gonna make backup. And then flash file.
Noticed the lag myself. So maybe it's missing a video codec, so it's not using hardware rendering.
I'll flash the fix and see if it works.

It depends.
On modded stock ROMs, if the dev included z's audio lag fix, this problem will surface.
On custom ROMs (CM7 for example), the issue is already there.
This zip simply replaces the libs with those from stock ROM.
PS: It was one of the reasons why I didn't use Froyo custom ROMs.

So, it will give us back the audio lag while listening to music then?

You could have also said this in first Post, right?
flashed it and saw no big difference. I'm on WB4.0.4
Maybe he already included it.
P.s. Your test video is not realy high res ^^ does 1080p work on our phone? Depens on bitrate i guess.

Technically, yes. Personally, I rarely get any audio lags while listening to music except when there's CPU heavy stuff going on like installing a large app from the Market.

It may be because I'm running a custom kernel. Barely any audio lag.
Is it possible to play the pps.tv with h.264?
robertberma said:

Not really. We play HQ YT vids aka 480p
Try DL-ing a 720p or even a 1080p vid and play it... see what happens. Not to mention HD divx/xvid content
P.S. regarding audio lag. I still experience it while underclocking to 128MHz. It's doesn't happen while the sleep FQ is at 245, though
hi there - just upgraded to acronium ICS v4 and wonderd if there is a call recording software that records the other side internaly (rather than through the mic)
also - on 2.3.4 i used LGcamera app that gave me superior quality photos and HD videos to the one built in. however it doesn't seem to work on this rom and if i try to use the video recording it not only crash but crash camera use even with the built in app... any ideas of an alternative camera app that compress photos less and code videos in h264?
cheers
michel
Can't answer your camera issue, but call recording depends on the kernel. Doomlords kernels support it but not sure if stock ics does.

Sorry dude but answer is NO!
No one can't help you and if you wanna understand why then check my post on miniCM treat about SONY CAMERA mystery. You will see no one dare answer my post coz I'm right on it.
There no dev who can deal with the experia and SONY camera.
The whole thing is alien tech and humans can't handle it.
Don't laught ! Jus go and read

Hi
At the moment i'm using the custom rom "MiniCM7-2.2.0" for my X10 Mini.
Well, unfortunately i'm having some issues with the implemented camcorder...
1. The recorded videos are stuttering. I've checked the framerate with the tool GSpot and it says 56 fps. Actually the video should be smooth with that framerate, but for some reason it's still stuttering.
Any solution for that? Would it help to overclock the cpu a bit? If yes, what is the maximum MHz i can choose without destroying my phone?
2. There is another problem with the camcorder:
When i'm recording outside in daylight, the video is much too bright - sometimes the whole screen goes white!
But when i'm recording inside where it's darker then outside, the video is much too dark - i can't barely see anyting on the display...
That also happens when i'm recording outside and then get inside in a darker place (still recording) - suddenly the whole video becomes totally dark - nearly black.
Am i the only person with this problem?
Well, then i tried lgcamera (latest version).
But that camcorder app also doesn't work properly.
As soon as i press the record button, the video freezes (not the app, just the video). All i can see then is a freezed picture. But that only happens on custom roms. I've tried several custom roms (gingerbread and froyo-roms) and several versions of lgcamera, but videorecording always freezes as soon as i press the record button...
Then i tried lgcamera on the 2.1 stock rom.
On the stock rom it doesn't freeze during video recording, but instead the same issues occur like with the implemented video camera in the custom roms: outside the video gets too bright and inside the video gets too dark! Well, at least the videos aren't stuttering on the custom rom using lgcamera...
I've read many times on this forum that people are using lgcamera without any problems on the X10 Mini - even on a custom rom! So how come it isn't working for me?
The only camera that does work properly is the stock camera in the 2.1 stock rom.
But i would like to stay on gingerbread or at least froyo...
Please, can anybody help me with this?

Well buddy.. I've got issues with the camera also.. Tried every app.. and unfortunately every app and setting failed.

Well, that really sucks
I've just read your post in the CM7-thread (btw. very funny explanation of the camera ).
In that case i'll switch back to the 2.1-stock rom, because i really need/want a good camcorder. And the stock one in the original rom ist just amazing for such a small mobile phone. Continuous auto focus ftw!
Well, thanks anyway for your reply.

Yes you right in 2.1 camera its amazing coz its maked and compiled by aliens.
Yeah my post is funny coz when I wrote it I was 100000% pissed of by the ugly android camera.
Yeah I'm using minicm for cost of my camera but this is coz I have ST15i the x mini next brother of our mini and use its camera for my needs.
I'm much in with cameras I'm amateur photographer ,displays colours , saturation , optics , HD, pixels and so on , all this things its like my seccond nature. That's why I wrote this post there on miniCM treat and like you see no one answer on it.
And in the end its soo strange how devs can port hack make and etc whole OS but when job come to camera its go to dead end.
Only reasonable explanation is Aliens coz only Sony can make this happen.
Wish I had some pall from Sony to ask him to make camera work but I haven't ....
