1. To get a decent frame rate at QVGA would need too much CPU.
2. It probably wouldn't be able to write the data to flash memory fast enough,
3. The files would be much bigger and soon max out your storage space.
If you want video at 320 x 240, you might as well take pictures one at a time... it will probably be faster than the frame-rate of doing video with the OMAP CPU
video
when passing it on to your pc it is full screen , don't worry. this way is much better for safing memory
Re: video
ok thanks for that, i was hoping to have fullscreen viewfinder and playback really
Hey Mates,
I am yet undone with overclocking the CPU since it drains more battery and as it is I am not at all satisfied with wildfire battery life.
These days I am engaged in watching movies of all formats nd the major problem lies when CPU is not able to handle the video format.
So does overclocking really impoves the video watching feedback? Does it improves the FPS factor?
If so, to which frequency should I overclock my wildfire.
Only tried with avi files via arc media. Playback improved a little with OC, but I got better results lowering to native resolution (320x 240) even at stock CPU speed.
Yes, i do use arcMedia, and i liked its performance too. But when it comes to multitasking, like, read Message while video is paused, it creates lot of playback problem. I use 2 media players, arcMedia, which is great, and QQPlayer, which according to me is worth using on android, better support, clean.

overclocking maybe instability。。。
Hi,
we can take photos in 3.2 megapixel, so why we can not record video in this resolution or in 1megapixel resolution?
this 3 steps maybe can work
3 easy steps
- if reason is weak processor speed? overlock it
- if reason is low ram? extend it with microSD card and apply SD-Booster
- custom recording app with modified recording resolution. or only change /data/local.prop (but not work for most phones)
True

what a breaktrough!!! xD if it were that simple we would have 720p recording by now
ya.. it s possible.. but it just damn hard.. may b it needs to rewrite the vid rec driver.. :/

i think he meant swap partition..
Ever thought about this:
- sensor not good enought to record 60 (or even 30/15) Photos with 3,2 MP in one second
Every other camera also needs to lower the resolution when recording video. Thats not a question of processor speed or RAM.

So...
what about this:
Apple Ipod Touch 4G
Camera
Photo: 0.7MP (960 x 720), It's VGA!
Video recording:720p 30fps, it's HD!

everything depends on the sensor......ours can handle higher res recording
but drivers need to be edited...
im trying to get a kernel with higher res but the drivers are tough and i have no
c++ experience...

Copied from android market:
SD-Booster speeds up your SD-Card (external memory-card) up to 40 times! Enjoy a new feeling of speed on your Android smartphone anytime and everywhere you are.
Starting apps, listing to your favorite music or just swapping data with your PC ? Whatever you do, the SD-Booster improve your phone speed!
SD-Booster needs root permission to run, otherwise SD-Booster can't do anything!

I dont know this is really working but....

So try to record your PC desktop with 30fps in resolution 1280x1024 with PATA/ATA HDD and 2GHz processor (1 core) if your HDD is low it cannot save 30 images(frames) per second to your HDD without lag.
If processor is low for rendering 30 frames frames in 1280x1024 resolution into video file and if HDD is too slow to write it, it is Fail. so if in our mobile is possible to speed up read/write speed of sd card and is possible to overlock cpu from 667MHz to 1300MHz, increase the ram using swap, so hardware side is done.
I think it is possible to change /or create custom\ driver for camera and customize recording resolution to our phone.
Sensor is one, If it can capture photo in 3.2MP it can also capture 25 photos/frames\ per second in 3.2MP and render it into video file without lags.
But I think 3.2MP is too much for our devices hardware. So 720pixel is enough to record a pretty nice video.

c++ experience..

I am only php developer so I cant help you in this :-\
you are talking about filmin a video in 3.2 megapixel?!?!? are you out of your mind? Good cameras and high end phones take video in 1080p - that is 1920x1080=2megapixels. You think our little phone can do better? Its not only about RAM, CPU, the drivers need to be reworked but there are always hardware limitations that can not be changed. I'll bet all my money that there is no possible way to get even 720p video with our phone. If we get vga (640x480) recording we can be very happy. That is really hard to do, it may even be impossible since that is 4 times the current quality and it probably takes 4 times more power from memory, CPU, GPU, RAM and 4 months of making new drivers.

not in 3.2 in 720pixel
This theory could work, but I think we need a driver re-write. Not only that, but can our GPU even display 720p +?

Someone was arguing about video in 3.2mp. Anyway, we can't even play 720p video without stutering, so recording is impossible. VGA could be possible however, lg p500 has vga recording with 600mhz CPU and better GPU, if we can get the CPU to do more job than GPU there is a chance. Unless the sensor just can't take it, then we are stuck.

we should be aiming for about 720x480 or close......
its a good res and our gpu should be able to handle it!
i can smoothly play dvd rips on mine without lag or anything at stock speed..
sensor shouldnt be a prob we just need a guy who is good with c++ knowledge
or driver writing experience....anyone?? if u need help with kernel i have successfully compiled a kernel from source and have all the necesary tools
It would be good if we were able to record in aac audio quality,and not like now - in amr.
What will give to us higher resolution if audio is horrible ?
GT-I5800 (Galaxy 3) Video Recording: increase please
Hello at all,
i use the DutchMods ROM V5.3 on my Galaxy 3. In my opinion it's a perfect firmware... but there is a thing: poor camera (Photo and Video). It don't change change from Samsung Stock one. Video has 320x240... a very poor resolution. I think there is some possibilities to increase the resolution to 640x480 (15 fps). The solution can be a post elaboration. When you save the video, the apk Interlace the photo or video. In this way you can have 640x480 video and more high megapixel in photo. The are very good routines for interlace (for example in N70 Nokia there was a program who shot 4 photos and build an high resolution photo using 4 low res photo). The same with video : 320x240 can be 640x480 video with less number of frames. It's a suggest for all custom firmwares.
Thank you at all.
Bye.
Jean-Luke
Talking is useless guys..
This is intended for Froyo
Records at 1920X1080 2mp
but video players decode it to a lower rate

ARE YOU KIDDING ?
"I can see that SDbooster or whatever, even if it converts the r/w speed to 1TBps, its not to be used as a ram
SD card is a removable media, "if it can hold apps moved from the phone memory, IT IS MOVING. same for data and everything.."
but by no means it can be used as "Random Access Memory"
RAM is directly connected to the phone and it is permanent. Thats all a person can explain"
BTW, reason is the SCREEN RESOLUTION and LENS

I don't think that is a problem cause 25 FPS is enough right!!
Since I can't write a question at the original post (Cause I'm a new member and don't have 10 posts yet), I'll write the question here.

Do the MOD works on MIUI Rom? (Is it CM based?)
Just remembering, I'm talking about the PLAYBACK, I, actually, don't care about the 720p recording... Just need the 720p playback.
Thanks,
K.
720p playback is enabled by default on miui (yes it is cm7 based). That patch isnt required.
Although playback isnt that great. Its pretty laggy
There is a way to play it without lag?
(Actually, i tried to play it before on the MIUI ROM, I thought that it don't play 720p because of the lag, hahaha )
You can reduce lag by:
1) overclocking to 1.1 or 1.2 ghz and set scaling to performance
2) get a better sdcard (higher class)

My Defy can play 720p videos encoded with MPEG4 codec very well yøµ ju$t need to keep the bit rate low below 2mbps
Now we have 4 gb ram, why dont use for load capturing video and later process it since memory ram is much faster than internal we can increase video bitrate and video fps, what do you think?

i dont know about ur idea..but for fps..the camera sensor should support,you cant increase those i think..
