Extract still from a video - Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers

Considering a P20 Pro, coming from iPhone
In the P20 Pro camera app, set to taking a video, is it possible to extract a still from the recorded video after it's taken?

take a screenshot hahwhwh

Can't see anyway to do it using the Huawei video app so you'd need to install something from the Play Store.

Thanks both - that's what I suspected

[Root] Camera mod for Moto X4.

This is a mod i have been using by quite some time, thought i should share it with other users of Moto x4. it's mostly made by @defcomg and i have only done xml and module part. you can see this has 4032x 2268 video support, it's very useful as you can record 2268p video and use google photos app's video stabilization on it to get stabilized 4k video.this produces much better 4k stabilized videos because you have 5% more resolution to work on compared to using it on normal 2160p video.
Features:
1: 2268p video mode for back camera.
2. 4k video mode for front camera.
3. 16mp mode front cam support for other camera apps.
4. Increased audio and video bitrate.
5. 1080p30/60fps hevc video support.
Requirements:
1: Magisk v16 or later.(so obviously it needs bootloader unlocked)
2: FreeDCam camera app play-store link
How to : -
1: Just install Enhance_MOTO_X4_camera.zip as a module in MagiskManager and reboot.
2: Open FreeDCam take a picture (so that it can create a freedcam folder otherwise you will get crashes in video mode) and follow attached screenshots to setup 2268p profile.

Download : -
1. Enhance_MOTO_X4_camera.zip
2. Camera_ MX (incase someone wants fully working gcam)
13-14 downloads but not a single comment on how bad/good/working/not working it is ? this community is really dead lol.

magisk module doesn't work with supersu, so no.
This is great! Trying to find a way to get less compression in photos, just installed and poking around!
How does this compare to the various Gcam mods out there? Does this lose any features from the stock camera? Does it improve shutter speed?

this mod doesn't remove anything, only adds the features stated in op.
So does this improve the moto camera or just provide a better alternative? Also is this mod just for video improvement or photos as well. The Moto X4 camera is very disappointing to say the least. I have been using a modded version of the GCam and it is much faster and better quality than the moto camera but features like the wide angle are sacrificed.
Works Excellent...thanks...

Would it be possible to port it to Pie?
By the way, if anyone is wondering, this mod works fine on Oreo 8.1 as well as 8.0.

I think it would be good if it would be ported for pie. But I'm not a developer and unfortunately I can not. I hope somebody does it.

P30 Pro "Red Tint" Mystery. Solve it here.

The "red tint" in video shot on the P30 Pro is well documented on here and YouTube. Someone who knows about this type of tech needs to help us solve a mystery! After hours of testing here is my observation:
The "red tint" is clearly present when I view video shot on the P30 Pro on my Windows laptop, Windows desktop PC and my wife's NATIVE video app on her iPhone! Just as described by many reviewers.
BUT
The SAME video on the SAME device (wife's iPhone) when viewed using the YouTube app looks perfect. ALSO, the same video on my P30 Pro, 4K TV and Galaxy S10+ looks great in BOTH the native video app AND the YouTube apps. What the heck is going on?

I think it's a codec issue. I'm also getting different results per device. If you run video through VLC Player on a PC, then on Adobe premiere pro, then da vinci resolve and Windows Media player, it shows different results

It looks outstanding on my 75 Inch 4K TV which should really put it through the paces as far as quality. So is it the phone then? Or the device? I wonder why I've never experienced such dramatic difference on other phones?

You are right I believe. Here is a screen shot off YouTube playing on my laptop. The first was a file moved from the phone and simply saved using Adobe Premiere and the second is uploaded to YouTube directly from the phone. No editing of either video.

Yeah I'm not 100% sure but I believe it is. I've no issue with it because anything that's precious video for me I'll go and edit anyway

Videos with stripped metadata looked fine on all devices/apps I tested whereas there were differences with intact metadata. Following command got rid of at least "Color Representation" (exiftool) tag without re-encoding.
ffmpeg -i in.mp4 -map_metadata -1 -c:v copy -c:a copy out.mp4
I have NO RED TINT on video recorded in H.265 while there is red tint in some video recorded in H.264!

i tried it, and it did work, but it just seems stupid that i have to use google camera instead of the default one. i'm not sure what i can do. i already tried resetting the huawei camera app but still nothing.
does anyone else have this problem or is it just me? it works just fine with google camera.

Hi!
Unfortunately final quality is bad - the video floats and very much visible convex jelly-effect.
Tried so many app for video-shot and all of them hoot video almost the same as a stock camera.
Relatively good filming video(with EIS) the Open Camera app, but only at daylight and at FHD 30 fps only.
Looking for some other camera app...

Question Video record 4k 60fps

Can any camera app, without disgusting cinema pro record video 4k60fps, or just buy Xperia 1IV?

cinema pro is bulls***it. I can`t change zoom\lenses when record in 4k60fps.....oh sorry i can`t change zoom\lenses permanently when record video in cinema pro. Why Sony add 4k60fps in basic mode only for xperia 1IV?
any phone which costs 300$+ can record video 4k60fps in stock
