I love this little phone. It continues to surprise me at every turn.
I discovered slow motion video today.

With the camera app open, push the A in the top right, first option - slow motion video.
The panoramic shots come out nice too

Sure is, except there is limitations on the res. i.e. no HD slow mo. Still cool
Going out to get some landscape shots in the mountains today. Panaorama inc!
I tried this feature inside my house. For some reason when I click record the screen goes a little darker and that's the way the video comes out as well.
Very cool never the less. Maybe ill try it tomorrow outside.

That's the way photography works... Slow motion is more frames per second, which translates to faster shutter speeds which allow less light into the sensor. Hence darker video unless the iso is boosted, then it gets too grainy... Good light will make a big difference...
It makes NO SENSE (no pun) for the phone to not have slow motion HD recording. None. Buddy of mine at work has the Resound, and we record 720p slow motion all the time. Checked the file's resolution, and it is full 720p. Why would a NEWER phone from the same manufacturer with better hardware and newer software... backpedal?
Pop Player (Speed-Control Video Player)
I highly recommend the free Pop Player app. I recently made a couple of reviews on it on YouTube.
This new video player allows the user to utilize speed-control. The slow-motion
and speeded-motion are extremely smooth too and audio syncs perfectly with
the video at any speed. It can definitely be useful for athletes and students.
Some people I know even use it to replay their golf swings in slow-motion
in order to improve their form.
This player plays MP4 files that contain H264 and AC codecs.

Do you have the .apk, because this player is no longer in the Google play store. Disregard, I found it in the play store, I should've looked thoroughly the first time.

Why does a video player need all those permissions? Read phone state and identity, retrieve running apps, kill background processes, discover accounts, market billing service. It may all be legit, but I wasn't taking any chances. Deleted the app without even running it as soon as I saw the permissions. Should have noticed it before installing the app.
Hello to all. I am facing video problem in my s3. Every recorded video in s3 does not play smooth on windows 7, win 8. I recorded all video at default settings & it plays at slow motion & hangs. I don't understand why all s3 videos does not play correctly or smooth.
What video player do you use to play the videos? Also, do you use any codec pack?
It might not be a problem with the recording itself, but with the Windows' video player settings.
I suggest you try using VLC media player (http://www.videolan.org/vlc/index.html) or KMPlayer (http://www.kmpmedia.net/), they contain their own video codecs, so that my cure your problem...

Is it possible for you to test the videos taken with your S3 on a completely different computer, ie on your friend's machine or something like that?
We need to rule out the computer as a culprit...

I tried many video player like vlc,km player,wmp so on. Still same. I think the video recorded by galaxy s3 was unable to play smoothly on pc due to its custom firmware. May be its the reason. I'm using MIUI RAYGLOBE firmware.

Not sure if it's just me, but when I'm watching video streams, anything from ESPN, YouTube, browser embedded videos, or HTC Media Streamer based content, Audio stream noticeably lags behind. About half a second actually.
Has anyone noticed this behavior, and what's the solution?
Thanks.
i've noticed it lags on the videos that you record. the audio is a little quicker than the video.
Yup that's exactly the case. Audio lags behind video in pretty much anything that's using HTC's native "Streaming Media Player". Massive and consistent lag.
Netfilx, WatchESPN, and similar third party apps don't lag as much though.

I'm talking anything, not only your camera content. If you get TubeMate and download any YouTube video onto your phone, and then play it with the default player, you'll notice a massive lag. Doesn't matter if HD or SD content. The phone is definitely NOT struggling to keep up.
The issue has to be within the actual OS settings.

interesting. wouldn't surprise me. do me a favor, go try MX Player. I've been using that on my Nexus 7 and love how it works. maybe that'll fix it? what does the stock app have that that doesn't, besides the ability to take a still shot picture?

Actually all the third party players seem to have the same issue. Used MX, VPlayer, Dice, BSPlayer, VLC.
This is clearly OS wide issue (at least on my unit). Has anyone experienced similar behavior on your DNA?
i dont see this on my DNA. i tried youtube and TWit live and voice and video is spot on.

In YouTube app lag isn't as drastic, but if you download the video and then watch, we're talking over 250ms. I also restored recently, same issue.
Am I the only one having this issue?!
i haven't downloaded any videos on to this thing so i really can't say lol
so wow, I was just watching a youtube video and yeah... the audio was slower than the video. I bet it has to do with the full HD screen.. what else could it be? ugh pretty damn annoying. this sucks because I'm anal as hell when it comes to audio and video lag...

I haven't experienced any of these issues. Sounds like an issue with TubeMate. I mean, you said streaming from YouTube was ok, but downloaded videos had lag. That, to me, sounds like a problem with your download program.

The nexus 10 has the same lag due to the screen resolution.

Even when streaming within YouTube app, the lag is present, it's just not as evident. However, when playing any content loaded onto the device, the lag is north of 250ms which is major!
Another example is my subscription to Futubox which has two ways of delivering HD content, browser flash based, and m3u8 where HTC MEdia Streamer handles the content natively. Flash plays perfectly in sync (although drains more battery), but m3u8, or rtmp/rtsp lags terribly.
I've tried the same exact m3u8 stream on an iPad 3 and a PC, no lag whatsoever, even when AirPlayed.
I simply mentioned TubeMate because it's the easiest way to grab video content onto the storage. Besides that, TubeMate downloads whatever the digital source is, could never be the cause if the issue.
This is OS level issue, and it's real.
so it seems screen resolution is the culprit. btw guys I've reported this to htc, and sent the link for this thread. They're in contact with me. I suggest you report it too

Ok, so as we android fans know, no android app can possibly beat Imovie for Ios, and i can confirm that because i even bought the pro versions of the 5 "best" editors on the playstore and tried many free ones.
I'm not saying they su*k but they are not at full potential,they can't even put a video inside a video.
And of course i'm not saying these thing randomly, i've worked with Imovie for half an year and then i switched to android.
Ok, so if you know an android app better than Vivavideo, kinemaster,video show, movie FX and others present in the playstore i would really apreciate it.
Even paid, it's really not a problem.
Thanks for your time and have a great day!

No there is nothing better. Android and IOS focus on different things. That is not a major focus for a mobile phone.

Hi I have a different question but very related with the one of S1luX and it is ...
Is there a Android video editor which can simply double the original frame rate of the video, i.e. if you have 720p shot [email protected], this app to simply be able to convert the video into buttery smooth [email protected] video ? There is such option with MediaConverter apk, but simply it is not working ... And as of now ALL the apps from Play Store (and even the iMovie can't do this) are not able to double the frame rate of the video ... Such 30 FPS to 60 FPS(or even more) is only possible in a PC ... It is not even possible in Adobe Clip ...
Why???
Snapdragon 820 is having powerful enough CPU and GPU ?

Hi all,
So far I am liking the phone, I am having an issue and I dont know if it's me or what. When I was regular shows/movies on Netflix (HD) it looks great, no issues what so ever. But when I view HDR shows the whole thing has a really bad brownish tint to it.
I tried to take a screen shot of it but it would not let me do that. I dont know if I did something wrong in the settings which in the display part it is set to Movies and the Enhanced Video Color is turned on as well.
If you need more information to help me fix this issue please me know.
Thanks in advance
Is anyone else having similar issues or is it just me?
I'm not signed up for Netflix 4k (which is the plan to get HDR), so there's no way I can test it.

Yes I have. It looks great. Only problem I am having is HDR in the Netflix app. I talked to Netflix and they said they never head of the problem before. But videos everywhere else works and looks amazing
Oh man, forgot this phone played hdr videos. They are amazing! Don't have Netflix, but they are great on YouTube.

Just a standard and a high option and mine is set to high. I know, every other app like youtube and so on plays it perfect. May jusy be the Netflix app itself
Mine do not appear to play in HDR either and the video information shows HDR on the description. I wish it would show an HDR logo like my TV when it is playing in HDR. As far as youtube, what HDR resolution do you guys use? Mine is a bit choppy in 720p and skips frames badly at anything above.
I set my Youtube to 4K ... it was flawless over wifi ..
TMobile limits you to 480p to keep unlimited usage.
All, my Sony Xperia xz premium does indeed show HDR when I look up the Daredevil series. BTW it's a good to test the screen with. Anyway the V30 only shows HD so my feeling is that we are not watching HDR. I could be that Netflix hasn't authorized the V30 for HDR viewing as of yet. As I recall it took a bit for the XZP to get added to the white list.
Just got my V30 US998 and I noticed the same thing with HDR Netflix playback. It's similar to what I've seen with some early "HDR Compatible" TVs that are technically capable of receiving the signal, but not applying the appropriate processing or color mapping to make it look right. It could just be that Netflix needs to update the app to support the V30, or maybe it will be fixed with a future system update. Youtube does look great, but I'm not 100% sure that's playing in HDR properly either because there's no indication one way or another.
Question on the HDR youtube videos... I saw a screenshot somewhere (not v30) showing that you could actually choose HDR as a separate "quality setting". i.e. you'd have "480p, 720p, 1080p, 720pHDR, 1080pHDR" so on and so forth. My youtube doesn't show that. Is there any way to confirm that it's actually playing in HDR?
It looks out of this world, so it probably already is playing HDR, but just figured I'd check for sanity.
Same for me. HDR videos on Netflix are washed out. As if Netflix is rendering the video in a different colorspace. HD videos are fine.
