How can we increase bit rate of images and video recording

I would like to improve bitrate quality at both images and videos

LG V30 Adjust Screen Resolution

Hi,
1st off I love this phone. I am extremely pleased and have zero complaints so far. Buttery smooth too....
My Question is how is it possible that the screen resolution is adjustable? Does the display turn off pixels? Does it merge pixels? Please enlighten me..
Thanks,
Joel
I'm pretty sure it must be 'rooted' first to allow those changes.

Sorry even though u r pretty sure. This info is wrong. U DON'T need root. Just like samsung graxe ui. On LG V30 u go to display - screen resolution and switch between 720,1080 or qhd+.
But the OP never asked if changing resolution was possible. He most know that we can already change res in the setting. What he is asking is HOW does lowering resolution works.
Im not sure about this but from tv or any pc monitor u can upscale to max reolution of the monitor or downscale to a lower resolution. The pixel are still on but the screen is not push very hard.
Amoled are very power effecient and this has been discuss in the S8 forum for quite sometimes. After all the testing the xda members have been doing it seems that going from QHD down to 1080(full hd +). Doesnt save that much battery (around 5% better battery)
Actually I'm wondering because on a 1080p TV, when you feed it a 720p video, the TV stays 1080p. The video is just enlarged to fit the 1080p display. On the V30 I'm under the impression that the display will actually change. Kinda like having a 3 displays in 1...

U wont see a smaller screen. The screen will stretch out edge to edge but it will look very blurry if u do 720p. Not so much in 1080p mode. So u can say that the software upcales lower resolution. Just like riptide 2 which u can lower or max res in the setting of the game.
Wait, so the software downscales? You sure? Just Android or all apps too? I don't think so. How could software down scaling effect battery life?

The screen is cap at 60 hz. Let say u are playing a game ( this goes with the ui smoothness aswell). Since the screen is cap at 60hz means that the fps is up to 60fps max/cap At 1080p is you play a game that can reach 80fps(cause is not pushing QHD pixel) the cpu/gpu doesnt have to work has hard. So instead of doing 80fps it only have to do 60fps meaning that cpu/gpu doesnt have to work 100% since is able to maintain easily the frame per second require from the 60hz screen.
This is why the new RAZER phone with 120hz screen can do 120fps.
Now if u increase the screen to qhd (1440p+). The same game with higher resolution the frame rate will be much lower. Now. The game probably is reaching 55fps instead of 80fps max (is an example). The screen is 60hz (60fps). So the cpu/gpu is gonna be working 100%. Much harder cause is trying to reach 60fps but it cant. Which equals more power comsuption, hotter device and also cpu/gpu throlling cause of the heat.

Are there any setting to improve this 720p display??? it looks worse than some TFT displays!!!

Question Screen Resolution

Hi, is there anyway in which we can change the screen resolution to 720p while we game?
Like it can be manual, before going into a gamez turned to 720p and back to 1080p when done.
Phone struggles in 1080p rendering on heavier titles. I'm hoping for a non-root method

Question Does 1v support 4k screen resolution all the time?

Hi,
I’m considering to buy this phone but want to know if one can run the screen at 4k res (or max resolution for this phone) natively/completely/all the time, like in android menus, home screen, browser etc…Not like with previous Sony phones, 4k was only supported in few stock apps like album/photos. And some claimed that even running the adb command to switch res still didn’t really enable 4k.
I am not interested in conserving/saving any battery. If I pay for high res screen, I want to utilise full res all the time.
Thanks!
Perhaps High Resolution Mod for Xperia 1 IV could be ported to the 1 V.
