Choppy video recording on FHD & 4K - Faulty device? - LG G5 Questions & Answers

Hi there, since for about 6 Weeks i have a problem with video recording.
Video recording is choppy and I have framedrops (see the 3 links at the end) when i use FHD and 4K.
On 4k it is even worse. Could anyone please compare my vids with the own recording from another G5? Are there framedrops and choppy video on your G5?
I am am an Stock 10C, rooted, Xposed Framework v86 (Lucky Patcher, Play Store Changelog, Xprivacy, Youtube Adaway, Youtube Background Playback).
What i tried to resolve the issue:
- Cleared camera app's data & cache
- Record only on internal memory
- Switch off HDR
- Change OIS to Steady
- Clean installed 10C withoud Root, Xposes etc.
But the issue still remains. Do you have any hints for me? Could this might be faulty hardware?
Thank you in advance

Could anyone please provide some videos recorderd with a LG G5? I will compare them to my videos to exclude my device is faulty. I've found some videos online, but most of them are edited.
Thank you in advance

sorry for the darkness and the short length but I hope it is enough to determine whether it is choppy or not. I currently haven't installed the 60 fps mod so it is more or less stock what you can see.

No 4K recording for 3rd party apps on the G5 non-rooted???? Anyone?

I tried 5 different 3rd party 4K recording apps on MM and Nougat........and non of them worked..................all just do 1080p.
Cinema4k
ProShot
Freedcam (2 different versions
Lumio Camera Pro
Open Camera
All just do 1080p on the G5 stock unrooted MM and Nougat (Sprint LS992)
The stupid thing is the G4, which uses the same main camera module can do great 4K video with all of these apps above listed...... non-root too.
The only way to do 4K is the stock app which is low bitrate. I am seeking to do high bitrate which the LG G4 does wonderfully even unrooted stock
Anyone know of a way to enable 4K for the G5 non-root? Thanks

Hey!
Did you maybe find the solution to this. I discovered the possibilities with Open Camera (completely manual video mode), but only thing that's missing is 4k. Did you come up with something?

Video recording improvements in build prop?

I wounder if it is possible to tweak in the build prop to get more fps in the 4K video recording?
I use the two 7.1 roms on the two links below on my LG G Pro 2 D838 and everything works great except the 4K recording, if I acitvate the 4K mode the live screen in video mode lags alot and the recorded videos have about only 15 fps.
On the stock Kitkat 4.4 and Lollipop 5.0 the fps is on 30 stable.
I have tried alot of different camera apps and they all give the same result.
So anyone here who can give me som advice where to begin?

Lag and lost frames in youtube hdr

hello to all, greetings from Spain, I open this issue because since last Friday I am the new owner of lg v30, but I have a problem that I do not like at all, and I would like to know if the same thing happens to you too
on YouTube, I've put some videos of these shows to see the screen and others, and I noticed that the videos in 1080p60 are pretty lag, and quite annoying frame losses, like stoppages, (in one of Youtube videos, a demo of LG, a red car comes out, and happens to be next to the camera and the next frame is already 2 meters, I do not know if I explain) and I'm quite fussy about this issue, what I put the same video to 1080p also in a leeco le pro 3, and it looks fluidisimo, perfect .... why can this be? Someone else happens?
I do not know if you can put links, if you can please tell me and I'll post the video so you can try it if you can see it well
Another question, does your phone heat up? is that I notice it hotter than the leeco, as soon as I put some video like this 1080p60 gets tempered by the area of ​​the camera, I do not know if that is normal or not
Thank you very much and hopefully answer
Happens to me too. I also tested this on a Galaxy S8 and it has identically bad performance. It probably also happens on the Note 8. 1080p30 HDR runs fine though. I didn't notice any heating - maybe just slightly warm but could as well be from my hands. Was the other phone you tested HDR capable?
I don't know if I can help you at all, but perhaps if you fill in some blanks, others might.
1) What model phone do you own and what firmware are you on (stock, stock rooted, custom ROM, etc)? You can check your firmware under Settings.
2) Can you link us to a video that's giving you problems?

hello, thank you very much for answering
1) my phone is lg v30 h930, stock, just removed from the box without touching anything, and the software version is V21w-EUR-XX
2) this problem happens to me in all the videos that I play on YouTube 1080p60 HDR (if I put the same video in 720p60 HDR the problem improves a lot, it becomes almost imperceptible) but the problem is that youtube does not give the option to deactivate the hdr, so if the video has that option, it activates it
I give you some examples of the videos that I have tried and they are very annoying ( It does not let me put links because I have less than 10 messages, I put the description of the youtube thumbnail, the first videos come out )
on youtube put "lg oled demo ", and play the first video, which shows a teapot in the thumbnail, and the video that shows a butterfly in the thumbnail, both are 4k Hdr 60fps
the phone I have it all activated, the HDR, I have not activated any energy savings, this all to the maximum ... I do not know what can happen, I do not know if it is the snapdragon 835 problem that can not with so much demand .... Do you think that could be why?
I have a pocophone f1 my brother, and the same video runs smoothly, very very fluid, but does not allow HDR, but I do not want hdr only make it look fluid
I've also noticed a bit of lag in chrome, in firefox it's better to scroll
Do you think it will be solved in any way? is that if I'm not return it and buy another phone thinking, something like pocophone because they do not have that kind of budget : llorando:
thank you very much and I hope response
I just tested that first video you suggested (the one with the teapot thumbnail) and I had absolutely no issues with playback. No stutter or lag with either the video or audio.
It's perfectly smooth, and really a lovely video.
I'm not an expert on HDR (since I don't use this device to watch movies or TV shows via Netflix or any other service), but as far as I can tell, the HDR triggered properly.
I have HDR turned on Settings, of course, and it's my understanding that you can tell when HDR turns on (when you rotate to Landscape) because the white Youtube pause/play buttons (amongst others) get very bright compared to Portrait view (which is supposed to disable HDR).
I also have never had any issues with Chrome. But I don't use FireFox, so I can't really compare the two.
I'm using an American open market US998 LG V30 on stock 20D (an old firmware from around June/July 2018), rooted.
I plan on updating my phone to the newest stock firmware one of these days, but haven't gotten around to it.
I have no idea what's going on with your phone. I understand it's new.
Maybe try checking to see if there's an OTA firmware update ready for you to install? (You might be running system software even older than mine, with a flawed HDR implementation).
Maybe there are some bloatware apps that came with your phone that are impacting performance.
Perhaps a factory reset could help?
I'm sorry I can't be of more help.
Que tengas buena suerte.
When i Am on STOCK ROM there is stutter and lag..
Install A CUSTOM ROM (tested on dot os) The colors still look vivid and plays smooth!! Absolutely no lag
I have had this issue since I first took my V30 out the box. Have the latest update for stock ROM/ VS996/Verizon. I gave up trying to troubleshoot this issue.
im using vanced as default YouTube app. it has an option to enable VP9 codec, that'll make your playback smoother even at 1440p60fps. But it kill HDR (but the color still the same tho). Shame, that V30 couldn't play HDR, because this phone is one of YouTube Signature Devices https://devicereport.youtube.com/phones/lg_v30.
Update: When I play that "lg oled demo" video, it doesn't stutter, I don't notice any of them. But when play "peru hdr" it stutter a lot. I'm using H932 latest stock. Try to activate that VP9 codec if you don't want HDR after all. Also, I don't use Chrome anymore, I disable it and using others. try Kiwi or Brave both are chromium based if you prefer chrome-like interface. If Firefox feels better so stick with it.
Just turn off hdr in display settings, every lg v30 has this problem. I think it's because hw decoder cannot keep up so this problem applies to every snapdragon 835 phone. Hw is capable of 1080p30fps HDR in vp9, 1080p60fps HDR is on the limit and can drop frames. HDR is gimmick for me, it is not well implemented. The quality is much worse than normal videos. For me bigger problem is that oled screen cannot reproduce dark colors because of low uniformity when pixels are barerly turned on and very slow response time in that matter too but that's for another topic.

How To Guide Circumventing the current video recording bugs on custom ROMs

On Custom ROMs we all share currently the same video recording bug.
Audio is missing or off-sync, time-length of videos get messed up, and so on.
The temporary workaround was to reboot the phone and after that, for the next ~5-10 minutes video recording was working more or less as intended.
Needless to say that this is very cumbersome.
Here has someone found another workaround that seems to be the better option for now:

Concerning the video recording bug: I just tested Footej Camera App for a day and for me it works flawless so far!

Therewith it is currently the only known option we have to make video recording work on custom roms (without the workaround of rebooting the device and having a ~10min timeframe of working video recording)
I've tested Footej Camera 2 + Footej Camera 2 Premium (May 2021 version) and both seem to work for video recording.
There are some downsides, though:
- Non-Premium version has a 5min time limitation for videos, Ads, and JPEG quality limitations.
- both versions have the limitation of 30-fps video (in normal mode). There is no 60-fps video option like in gcam.
Despite that, this seems to be a better workaround until gCam fixes are out or anxcamera is working.

Question Whatsapp choppy video

Hi,
Since I bought GT 2 PRO global version (RMX3301) 2 months ago, I have an issue with sending videos (recorded from the main camera) as videos playback get choppy after being processed by whatsapp.
latest updates did not solve the issue.
However, if I record and send videos directly from whatsapp, the playback is smooth.
Anyone faces the same problem? Any fixes?
Exact same issue here, have been trying every different setting etc and nothing working.
Same here. Gdpr version
Sorry, I posted a fix I thought works but doesn't ...
If you change video options to 4k, 30-60 fps, it´s must work for you.
Is better ,but no, not working
Same problem
try turning of hevc (h265) video in setting, alternatively cut the video shorter using the editor and use the new video
same problem here. Just found out the culprit. if you download the video to computer and try to read the FPS, it always using weird number, like 28.97, 29.41, 29,33 fps. I guess that what really make whatsapp compression failed, it tried to upscale the frame rate to 30 fps but because the FPS never have constant rate, the output get choppy.
I tried using Gcam, and works perfectly, because Gcam always produce 30 fps video.
Realme should fix this bug
To solve this inconvenience (it happens in several mobiles that are not Samsung and Iphone), you must use the "VenLow" application (I suggest downloading the premium app from google) and that's it, the same application indicates how to use it and you can also watch videos on youtube. Greetings People from Chile.
Just noticed that problem was solved already
