I've not heard of this issue before but perhaps a software update will help?
Has it been updated to the latest Lollipop ROM available for the device and region?
Considering that photos appear to be free of the glitch I'd assume it's a software issue.
Try an OTA software update and if not then flash a stock ROM via ODIN?
Should fix it.
Hope this helps.

Tried a software update but didn't fix the issue

[Q] Galaxy tab Camera help

I just got my tab and when ever i try to use the camera i cant see what i'm shooting.... it only displays the last picture i shot but when press the shutter button it shots fine and the display change to the thing i shot...
Video mode is the same.
I tried clear data for the Camera app and force close it but its the same...
can any one help?
btw i searched the forums but i didn't find anything sorry if there is a thread about this already
i also hv this problem also... please help us..
~i thought it is bcoz of the spare part apps. then i try to set it default. but it still same..
BUMP. Help us please
I have the same problem.
As a workaround, if you slide the camera/video slider, the Tab switches back to the camera setting, and the viewfinder is displayed.
I have had some other problems with my tab, like crashing apps all the time, I made a hardreset and now everything is fine. You may test it and report here.
i had the same problem with the camera app. sliding the camera/video slider doesn't help.
so i reboot the tab & its working fine now.
regards,
mike
Yup, i know, after reboot, the problem gone.So, if like that, everytime i face the problem, i hv to reboot. How can like that..
I am facing this issue too, any fix?
Damn now I'm in the boat, but I think I know why this happens, my camera doesnt show black screen or something, it shows the last viewed youtube video and if I switch to video cam, two youtube vids are shown.
So may its caused by the new youtube app?
So, all hv this problem by using the new youtube app?
How to revert back to previous version of youtube? Where can get the installer?
I also have the problem its not cuz of youtube app, it happens with videos that you watch any video from any app.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
i have the exact same problem..viewfinder gets stuck on the last frame of the last viewed video, and only a restart can fix it. Any news on a proper solution for this? I hate restarting the phone...
cam problem
Hello devs plz helps all with tis fix of viewfinder we are waiting for it, every time we use video call, u tube, play game, this freezes the view finder, looking forward to fix from you ppl, no hopes from samsung as usual
thankx in advance
I had the problem on the camera of SGT as well 3 months back. However, I sent in my SGT for an upgrade of firmware due to other reasons (not because of the camera issue). And the problem has gone forever.
When I encountered this problem back then, I tried rebooting, clearing of memory (RAM), it goes off for a while, but it came right back, especially when you view YouTube. It is quite annoying.
So, my advice to you guys is to send it to Samsung for a firmware upgrade, it just takes less than an hour. By the way, my SGT is stock ROM.

[Q] I need serious help!!!! fuzzy and pixelated images

I just got my galaxy s 4 from Sprint a couple days before Christmas, everything was fine until a couple of days ago when I noticed on my web browser and in youTube most of the time that videos and images on Web pages and videos were pixelated and kind of rainbow colored, not quite sure on the whole rainbow color thing that might just be me, but I know for a fact the images and video are pixelated, like little to medium sized squares all over the picture. I tried factory resetting my phone and clearing The cache for just about damn near every app I had and still nothing works. I also tried using my wifi instead of my 4G LTE, and still nothing works. This is a very annoying problem and I would greatly appreciate it if anyone could help me fix this.

Is your phone still stock or have you already rooted it. If you did, what ROM did you flash? There are some really helpful folks on this site but you to give a little more info.

Recording video - horizontal bars

Bought my note 3 in December and was generally very impressed, well, until I started to record video. One of the main reasons I bought the 3, was I was ahppy owner of the original note, and have always liked Samsung phones, and had read it was a great flagship phone.
I hve notice these horizontal bars that flicker across recordings, its very frustrating, as I use the camera and video a lot. Its more evident in video, but does sometime show up on stills.

I originally thought maybe a software update would fix it, but ive now gone from 4.3, to 4.4 and now 4.4.2.. and the problem still happens.
Not impressed! Samsung have asked me to send phone in to be fixed, but Ive asked them to review the vids and assure me it can be fixed, before I send the phone in!
Wifi is the main cause of this problem turning it off solves the problem, and turn off auto network switch aswell in advance wifi settings.
It a software problem as it doesn't do it with other camera apps only Samsung own.

Video Artifacts

Hi, I've searched and there doesn't seem to be any thread about my topic for the S5.
I've just got mine yesterday. After playing around with it and watching some videos on Instagram, I've notices some artifacts in my videos.
I've tested it with everything including my own recorded videos that I've taken with the S5. Every single video I tried viewing showed artifacts. Now I'm seeing if anyone else has this problem?
I've taken a screenshot of a youtube video for example.
It's fpsrussia if anyone's wondering.
(I couldn't post outside links since I don't have 10 post yet)

Ok, I just went to the store. Turns out mine's defective. So I should be able to exchange it as long as I got the box and receipt and everything.

Facebook App is only playing videos in SD mode even after clicking the HD button

Hi there, I'm currently using a OnePlus2 with Android version 5.1.1 and OxygenOS version 2.2.1.
The problem I'm facing is that my facebook app is not displaying videos in HD mode even after I click on the HD button provided in the player. I remember correctly that this was not the case around 2 months back and whenever I hit the HD button the video would pause, change its resolution and then continue playing. I also cannot recall if I've made any changes or upgrades to my ROM as my phone is rooted and the last update I received was OTA around a month and a half back.
Just to to be clear, I like my multimedia in HD as I'm quite a fanatic of picture quality and sound
This problem was annoying me for quite sometime now but I kept on ignoring it as videos being played on other apps like twitter, youtube or even from my phone memory were working just fine and displayed in full HD quality. I thought maybe the videos I'm playing on Facebook were uploaded low res until yesterday when I saw the same video on my wife's phone which played in HD.
I've been searching for a solution for 5 days now and seems like google doesn't even have an answer to it or may be I'm the first with such a problem. Anyways, desperately looking forward to a response.
Thanks!

Facing Same problem in my Le 1s
I am also facing same problem in my LeECO le 1s mobile, tried multiple fixes but didn't work. Also, Its not easily available on online forums as a known issue. I tried cleaning everything related to the fb app from the storage which seemed to work temporarily but it started again. let me know if you come across any permanent working solution.
The offical facebook app is sh*t.
It uses alot of battery, ram and cpu.
Use an alternative app like: Folio, Swipe for Facebook or Facebook Lite.
