Is there a way to take slow-motion video with the Vibrant camera? I know that the droid-X has one but i cant find a port or anything that will work on the vibrant.
so if anyone knows if there is either a port of the Droid X camera or maybe a slow-motion app I would appreciate it.

The way most consumer digital cameras do slow-motion video (and video at all) is to record many different frames on the camera's CCD chip. The Vibrant's CCD, for example, can take 2560x1920 still images. It also records 1280x720 video at 30fps. To do this, it puts 4 different frames on the CCD, one after another. (1280 times 2 is 2560, so you can fit two frames across and two frames down, so that's 4 images on the CCD at once.)
To do slow-motion video, you just need to subdivide the CCD even further to fit more frames on it. This is why cameras that support slow-motion video record it in lower resolution--you're not really speeding up capture so much as stuffing more frames on a single CCD, which has limits in how quickly it can refresh.
On the Vibrant, you could theoretically do 120fps in 640x480 resolution by subdividing the CCD into a 4x4 grid (instead of the 2x2 is uses to do 720p 30fps). This gives 4 times as many frames per CCD refresh, which means 120fps. (Or you could do 720x640 at 60fps by subdividing into a 4x2 grid--half the pixels of a 1280x720 at twice the frame rate.)
Are the camera hardware drivers open source? My knowledge of Android stops at the API--I've never done any low-level device driver programming. If you can get the camera driver source, this should be possible. But I have no idea how difficult it would be.
(I'd love to see this feature, though--I found this thread searching around to see if anyone had done it already.)
Bump. I'm assuming this is a development dead end until we get the camera driver source...but it'd still be awesome to have this feature on more Android devices.
chuckbass... what you says is no sense, forgive me, but that isn't the way slow motion works, if there is a way to get a frame from an area of the ccd and subdivide in 2x2 you will get 4 incoherent images cos each will be sepparated by half resolution
Slowmotion it's dependant on how fast you can get the whole frame from the CCD, resize, apply some compresion or not, and store
in this part the RAM memory has a vital role
the proccess is:
1) get the whole frame from ccd, it's can be done by api's, but I think may be slow, but you need to test first, but through apis is more compatible
2) resize the frame, at least you can get a resized by hardware image, I think through apis the cdd can return an jpg
3) store to ram in raw mode or the jpg
repeat at fast the cpu can until fill the reserved ram
this may works to do a burst slow motion for a few second but very fast frame rate
another ways is to apply an algorithm and store in ram just if it's necesary but better to store directly into a fast SD memory to record continuously, here you can do test to find the max memory you can store to SD and maybe not using compression but just store in raw mode (like a bmp, or rle bmp)
there is no relation with resolution/frame rate and how much slowmotion you can do
I mean, if you can record [email protected] that doesn't necessary means a [email protected]
samsung omnia i900 can get arround 120 fps in 320x240 in a low bitrate video, works fine with good light, and [email protected]
Galaxy S can record [email protected], but has a better cpu and gpu
It's depends on cpu power, and/or gpu (and not in MHz)
I don't know about android programming, and just a few useless things in winmo, but I'm glad if I can help with anything
it's seems that not much ppl is interested on slowmotion, funny, cos is a very nice feature!
if there slowmotion in galaxy S or optimus 3D I will buy, but for now I will get a Casio EX-F100 and a Nintendo 3DS soon
Recently I have discovered you CAN record 1080p video at 60fps with stock MIUI8 just needs a few simple mods and specific camera apps.
This mod is only for and tested on the Redmi Note 3 Pro Snapdragon variant (kenzo).
For this mod to work you will need a few things to get started.
--- Select a Camera App ---
1. MotoCamera (MotoCamera_V6.0.62.1_ModV4.apk)
2. In MotoCamera set the mode to 1080 60 FPS in the settings pane (swipe from the edge to access options).
-OR-
1. FreeDCam -
2. you must edit the 1080p video profile in it's settings under 'video profile editor', set/change video frame rate to 60 fps and 'record mode' -> Normal then save, back in settings make sure Camera2 API is selected.
(3.3.147 is the current stable, but has a bug switching from 'pic' to 'video' and back where camera will appear to freeze, that bug is fixed in version 4 alpha but it has another have an issue saving some settings, I suggest starting with 3.3.147 to test it out.)
----
--System Changes---
3. you need to put the modified 'media_profiles_8956.xml' (found attached to this post) to enable 60fps on the device, use a file-manager like MiXplorer or similar to replace the file it can be found in /etc/ (make backups first), you can also just rename the old file to something like '/etc/media_profiles_8956.xml-'.
OR
I have also created a Magisk script for systemless modification., if you don't want to change / modify system files and happen to have Magisk installed just install the zip file in Magisk Manger - easy.
if you are going the non Magisk route then I suggest you backup your original media_profiles_8956.xml or just rename it to something else just incase you dislike the mod and want to return to stock.
4. reboot, and try it out, [email protected], you do need to be in nicely lit area otherwise fps will drop in low light -
.
Video: MPEG4 Video (H264) 1920x1080 59fps 16931kbps [V: VideoHandle [eng] (h264 baseline L4.2, yuv420p, 1920x1080, 16931 kb/s)]
-
Pros:
60 FPS 1080p
very smooth such a noticeable difference
media_profiles_8956.xml mod ups the stock bitrate for audio to 320k , and raises video bitrate for better looking videos.
Cons:
Breaks stock camera video recording (camera app crashes)
still has the FPS lag in low light
60 FPS only works in specific camera apps, if you find others please let me know!
I have tested this on MIUI 8 Global beta 7.6.15, I am not sure the results of other OSes or MIUI versions, so as with any mod try it at own risk and make sure you have a working twrp or recovery.
good luck.
BTW there is also a 960P mod for 90fps, but it cannot coexist with the 1080p 60FPS mod .

I tried
Open Camera,
Snap Camera HDR (all CameraAPI levels),
Lumio Camera (btw this is another awasome camera, if you want a steady 30fps video with no FPS drops even in low light, just no 60 FPS though ),
Camera MX
but they all record at 30 fps
So far the only ones known to work at 60 FPS are
Moto Camera
FreeDCam
cyngn.cameranext (not tested)
CameraNX (only for android 7.x)
Have you figured out any way to make the camera record stable 30FPS even in low light without any third party camera app? Thanks man, I'll be using Lumio Cam for now. Haha.
Edit: It actually works! Seriously, how can this camera do this kind of stuff?! It actually performs better, but kinda hated the UI lol, at least the video camera can be usable now.
Will it work on Los based ROMs?

for the 60 fps mod?, I have no idea I only tested it on MIUI 8, you can see if the /etc/media_profiles_8956.xml file exists on the LOS rom and try porting the modified settings over and try motocamera out.

Afaik there is no way to make stock camera app record steady 30 fps, I edited kenzo.xml inside of miuisystem.apk and I can enable a few extra options for the stock camera like video image stabilization, 4k video ..etc but still suffers the fps lag in dark, I also dislike the zero shutter lag feature of the stock camera since images come out looking like watercolor (when zoomed in), where if you compare a image that was taken with another camera like SnapCam or Lumio the water color effect will be gone and have more detail for far away objects (but at the cost of shutter delay) ,
btw I can make a magisk script for a miuisystem.apk with the stock camera mods enabled, but you might have to be on the same version of miui 8 (7.6.15) since I am not sure how often that file changes and if it can work across different miui8 versions

What I mean is, are there any solutions like binary patches or any system stuff that doesn't fiddle with the camera app? Or have you found any other camera app that can do stable 30fps in low light?
Sadly, I'm already using NOS so I can't test stuff, but that's a good idea. I don't think MIUI doesn't change it's files that much. Good work man! :highfive:
Just tested, it works like a charm [emoji106]

Just Lumio that I found so far (that can do 30 fps without mods in low light), besides it costing money its pretty nice .
I have heard if you first set a manual shutter speed to a fixed 1/30 in snap camera hdr it might also work in that app, although I have not tried it, I might mess around with it later after it finishes charging

Yeah shame this feature is limited to one app tho, luckily Lumio is a nice all around app with lots of settings, it's a pretty new app so maybe more features will become available with future updates, I think lumio manually controls the shutter speed so it never drops under 30 perhaps that's how they defeat the fps drop, I tried contacting the developers but never heard back sadly.
but still since now we know what this camera can do, it sucks that it's being held back from its full potential by xiaomi, it should work like this out of the box, variable framerate was a bad idea.
Hey everyone!
First and Foremost, DO A NANDROID BACKUP!!!!! I am not responsible for any mistakes that you make or if anything happens to your phone.
for thoes who want to test non compression settings and are rooted :
you can flash in magisk and that allows to set jpeg 100%
It's only work with stock camera . It's has no effect in gcam or ....
Changelog:
V1-
-set JPEG quality to 100%
-Increase 1080 and 4k bit rate
-Set audio to channel 2 (stereo)
-Increase audio bit rate
-Increase photos details
V2-
-Some changes for better vibrance and saturation
V3-
-Increase video quality
-Increase audio quality
-Increase photos details
V4-
- Larger Image Buffer
- Larger colour information flow from colour sensor in blend matrix
- Better overall handling of ISO exposure settings
- Better low light performance
- Less noise in low ISO
- More aggressive handling of high ISO aliasing
- Extra frame of bracketing for HDR modes
Enjoy
What does it contain?
Yes, some explanation and info would be welcome haha.
EDIT : guys, don't flash until we have more info.
look at the README:
Changelog:
Code:
v1 - Initial Release
v2 - Fixed the earpiece not working throughout the system
v3 - Fixed Earpiece not switching from multimedia to calls
v4 - Fixed bluetooth audio issue
v5 - Fixed right channel not playing through main speaker
v6 - Fixed latency issue between earpiece and main speaker
The rest seems legit, so it doesn't seem to be a scam, however, it would be good to know exactly what it does. Also, since you used as a model the stereo speaker mod from @acervenky , it would be nice to give him some credit.

Apart from JPEG quality, which was set to 100% by you, these files have no impact on photos, processing or whitebalance.
They control video.
Also, OnePlus' stock camera and for example GCam are already using 95% JPEG quality.
There is no noticeable difference between 95 and 100%. All this does is needlessly increasing filesize.
Providing downsized samples through the forum is also not saying anything.
The "difference" which can be seen in your samples is not caused by the change you did to the files.
You just took a bad photo from what I can see (bad focus / handshake?!).
Also keep in mind that stock camera sometimes does not apply postprocessing when using it right after GCam.
Clear recents first if you compare them.
If I missed something, please provide thorough information to what you've actually changed.
No disrespect, but in terms of photo-quality this is a placebo-tweak.

Hi , This is about max pro m1 6gb version slowmotion recording and 60fps recording feature enabling discussion project :
Our device main sensor is capable of shooting video at 1080p 90fps and 720p at 120 fps
also processor SD 636 is capable the same :
But Asus didn't provided these options in our devices :
So I am collecting information about the camera functions and how can we able to modify its library to do this features :
I am not a Developer So Information collected from this can be useful for a developer to develop those features :
As far as I know Omnivision sensors used in Le eco 2 and Xiaomi Mi MIx and Max can deliver slowmotion also redmi Note 3 pro able to do it with their omni sensors :
Our chromatrix.xml
https://github.com/TheMuppets/propr...etc/camera/ov16885_holitech_16m_chromatix.xml :
No mentions about hfr
Update 2
After some tries , I got vendor blobs of lenovo z5
and took 3 lib so files from vendor lib
zsl video ibchromatix_ov16885_hlt_back_zsl_video_3a.so
default video buxxx
hfr60 buxx
i got 60 fps or 53 in front camera where ui added for back
Update 1 : compared to poco f1 media_profile xmls
Mediaprofile v1
Mediaprofile.xml are same only .
Difference noted in mediaprofile vendor. There they added slowmotion profiles
Post will Be Updated according to the information : Others can share information
There is a magisk mod called oxify, which installs opne plus camera on the phone and using that we can get slow motion. I think it's 120fps. If someone could port those drivers to asus to work on all the rest camera apps it would be awesome

We can install one plus camera and get slowmotion but it's not hardware based slowmotion and only 30fps
In 6gb cam modules are ok to record slowmotion both front and back but they limited to 30fps in mediaprofile as well some lib files ..if you look into the chromatrix.xml of each camera hardware profiles you can see they removed those hfr lines .. but present in front cam but it is limited to 30fps ..
May be this guy can help @defcomg
Go ahead
Is it really possible to do so? There is a thread for enabling 60fps for the 3/32gb variant but is is very unstable and buggy.
Any new update?

any more review about this i wanna buy it
Does it allow to record at 60fps with the wide lens 0.5x camera?
Working on s10+ (g975f)? I try on ambasadii rom and after apply magisk module, no camera app on launcher.

Hello and thanks for the app and mod! does it work with exynos s10e, cause I'm planning to buy one!
So, I've the app updated. Do we need tu use the magisk module anyway? Does it need to be updated?
Is this thread dead?
