So 720p is working. i found that it lags every so often. the video will stop then start again randomly. it seems 480p doesnt have this problem but 480p is saving as a blank video for me.

cm508t5 using whatever kernel you have in the update.zip clocked to 245-998 with cpu gov set as on demand.
[Nexus One Android Development] delcamahueto:
floyo pleaseeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!

PLEASE release a froyo version!!!!
[Nexus One Android Development] charnsingh_online:
It's working fine for me. Try changing build.prop mprof encoder to m4v
[Nexus One Android Development] charnsingh_online:
I have told thousand times now no froyo until source. Please stop repeating
[Nexus One Android Development] :
What about Gingerbread?
[Nexus One Android Development] codesplice:
or maybe iOS5?
[Nexus One Android Development] hktony:
good job man, google don't do it but u are our star to work it out !!!!

Re: [mod] NeXuS HaZ 720p @20fps and 480p @ 30fps

Great, great, great job :-)

Flashed last 13update, love it.
[Nexus One Android Development] ermacwins:
stop derailing the tread. good job op
[Nexus One Android Development] bradsh1:
great job op, although i would personally much rather see better sound recording than better video recording. sound on n1 videos is pure garbage!

Hey man, don't be hatin', very few people know about the micro RED ONE secreted within the flashlight. Or the Core i9 in the headphone jack.
[Nexus One Android Development] *rizzo:
nice now all we need is the flash enabled so can video record in dark areas or at night. or is there something already?...
[Nexus One Android Development] RogerPodacter:
We already have flash while recording video in froyo. And in 2.1 just use torch app.
[Nexus One Android Development] charnsingh_online:
CAN you all post your samples with the latest mod and if u can with the earlier mod, i need to see some reports to carry on improving it

Thanks
[Nexus One Android Development] codesplice:
I hate to be a bother, but would there be any chance of you uploading the latest mod to a host other than MegaUpload? I've been trying for the past 15ish hours to download it and it always fails.
[Nexus One Android Development] charnsingh_online:
I am not having my noteboot with me currently, i would love to do it but cant. Lemme see what i can do
[Nexus One Android Development] Smokeaire:
I can't download directly to my N1 from that site either, I have to tether my laptop to my phone and download the file that way. A mirror site would be nice.
[Nexus One Android Development] Smokeaire:
I'm not sure how to do that, but I've installed your latest and I got 40mbps with 11 fps@720p, with low light. I hope that helps.
[Nexus One Android Development] rheza02:

[Nexus One Android Development] codesplice:
Cheers, I'll give that a go when I get a moment.
[Nexus One Android Development] charnsingh_online:
Almost done with froyo guys, lets see if it works
[Nexus One Android Development] rheza02:
thanks man, you're awesome!
[Nexus One Android Development] charnsingh_online:
Didnt work on Froyo, it uses new API, no time to implement new API, have to search and do more, better waiting for source
[Nexus One Android Development] charnsingh_online:
I have been working day/night for u guys and i have been asking samples since yesterday for the latest mod. Not a single sample yet, this is seriously ridiculous guys. I am having fever due to lack of sleep working for u guys and seriously i expect something in return from u. I am just asking greater than 15seconds sample of video done in any light prefereably day with the ROM u r using, kernel, etc. I want to see which files need to be targetted for better video. We already passed EVO in terms of video bitate quality. I am not stopping here as i want better and better video quality. If u just want to see a sample of work i am doing just see this photo ( http://tweetphoto.com/img/Rounded.png) which lists the files i am searching and editing for providing u better quality. Doing all this stuff is not easy but when u help it makes it easy for me to find the files which are severly affecting the mod providing better stuff. I dont want to be searching 1000's of files for those specific 10-20 files which have major affect. SO PLEASE POST SOME SAMPLES SO I CAN CONTINUE WITH THE MOD. If i dont see a good user response say goodbye to it. I am going to stop giving public updates on it. I dont use the video recording a lot. Its like once a year i might have to record a video. Its not for me but for u guys. Please support my momentum by posting video samples

Thank You

Here's my 720p sample: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6541012/720.3gp

The 480p video recorded as blank and is only 52.5 KB in size but here it is anyway: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6541012/480.3gp

Hope this can help in some way.. appreciate the work you put into this :D

EDIT: Using CM-5.0.8-test5 with whatever kernel you included in the update.zip
[Nexus One Android Development] charnsingh_online:
Can u get the logcat of the 480p video u recorded :), i want to see what the problem is
[Nexus One Android Development] shivers316:
here's mine: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=EATVYNTU

I'm running cm 5.0.8 test 5 and using Intersect Raven's 800mv BFS kernel.

This one is at 720p

Edit: Just did a 480p video, also blank, but has audio. How do I get a logcat of the video itself?
[Nexus One Android Development] wind0zer:
Sure will do Charan bhai. Drink nesquik and get well soon. Don't presume to have personal targets or deadline to get this done. : )

ps: I have noticed many users literally demanding froyo versions with inverted smilies and all. It's really not nice people - ur asking for a beta mod to be made available on froyo which is technically beta or pre-release itself. Take it easy on the requests guys .
[Nexus One Android Development] eug89:
For the camera apk for froyo you could ask for help to Brut.all. I think he knows well how to modify apps without having the source since he did so many mods to the Maps.apk... really hope he could help you out
[Nexus One Android Development] chowlala:
It's a major pain here when people who don't contribute only demand stuff.

To be honest, the least we can do as end users is give FEEDBACK to the devs here so that they can keep up their excellent work. It's really the least we can do for them if we aren't planning on buying them a beer.

Or in Charan's case, a thosai. Lol.

So let's stop demanding so much from the devs, and let's give em feedback and be contributors.
[Nexus One Android Development] charnsingh_online:
Hell no THOSAI, i dont even know what the hell is that, i am from PUNJAB, Just googled it thosai is something of RICE. I hate rice. I love non-veg and spicy food. No south INDIAn. JUST SEARCH PUNJABI food before telling me i need something like thosai lol
[Nexus One Android Development] chowlala:

[Nexus One Android Development] LaurensBER:
Amazing work! Just wanted to say thanks, I would love to test some stuff for you but I have a HTC Desire :(

Man, those samples almost look beter than the still picture my first phone took! Amazing to see how much progress has been made.
[Nexus One Android Development] shaggy-h:
Here's a 720p sample. It's 24 seconds, 43MB:

http://redyeti.net/sample720p.3gp

Here's one at 480p. 30 seconds long, 37MB:

http://redyeti.net/sample480p.3gp

I'm running CM-5.0.8-test5 and your latest (480p fix) build. 16GB class 6 micro SD with about 4.3GB free space on it.

Note that I tried to take 5-6 clips at 720p, and every time the video would stop recording all by itself after a few seconds as though I'd pressed the stop button (which of course I hadn't!). The 720p clip above was the longest I managed to record, most were only a few seconds long. The "Video Duration" setting was set to 10 minutes. 480p seemed to be fine though.
[Nexus One Android Development] :
Do you want raw files, or can they be uploaded to youtube?
[Nexus One Android Development] chowlala:
He wants raw files, don't youtube em cuz they get compressed actually.
[Nexus One Android Development] victorinoxs:
wow..the bitrate is over 10mpbs!!

I'm having the same issue....same rom, same 480p fix, only 8GB class6 w/ 2.8GB free space.

I've never passed 10mbps bitrate...it's always around 9mbps...every time when the scene gets brighter, it stops recording. It seems that my sdcard cannot handle the higher bitrate....

Attached is a video sample, starting with lower light condition, when moving to the bright scene, the recording stopped without me pressing the stop button.

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=YAAFCOS7
[Nexus One Android Development] :
720p video, using the 720p_480p13.zip update.

This is 14 fps, about 5Kbps bit rate.

Rename to .3gp
[Nexus One Android Development] charnsingh_online:
Maximum bitrate i have seen is 14.5 mbps, thats i guess too much for sdcards, most probably the reason for stopping videos, where should i cap it at. It has to be capped to provide stable recording
[Nexus One Android Development] dalingrin:
I suggest something much lower. I can't imagine needing a high bitrate at all with the Nexus One optics. I would try a few videos at lower bitrates and try to find a sweet spot. I would think you could cap it somewhere between 5-7mbps without much if any loss in quality.
[Nexus One Android Development] charnsingh_online:
I have a video @19fps and bitrate is constant at 5mbps, i think ill cap it at 10mbps and test framrates and then at 5mbps n test again. DO some more tests and push out a stable one
[Nexus One Android Development] Blindfutur3:
I agree, around 6-7 should be more than sufficient. You've done an astounding job increasing the bitrate. Now I look forward to seeing what can be done with audio and image quality.

Keep up the great work charnsingh
[Nexus One Android Development] charnsingh_online:
Thanks for all the samples guys. Thank You for cooperating ;) . U all made me happy finally. Ill be releasing some more test mods in the coming days for finding sweet spot. Hope for ur co operation
[Nexus One Android Development] prodigiez:
how to get 14mb bitrate ? even under bright light still i wont get that bitrate..

I don't know if it has been covered else where in the post as I have been busy with my kid's 3rd b-day party but how can I find my bit rate and fps? I have a few videos from the party - they are outside (overcast) with a lot of motion and some bright colors. I last updated on Friday so I didn't have the latest update.
[Nexus One Android Development] charnsingh_online:
u can check using mediainfo, its program

for faster sd benchmark using j benchmark from market. If its over 10mbps u have faster, if less then that slower
[Nexus One Android Development] dlaciv12:
Is there a new update? I flashed what I had over my CM test5 like recommended in the string then saw there was an update as of 6/14. I went to download that but the file matched exactly what I already had.

Thanks for your work on this, simply amazing.

I love the whole community.
[Nexus One Android Development] fitsnugly:
The latest version of this mod has cause a weird purple banding issue in the preview window of the camera app. Either capped version causes this issue for me...

It also shows up in the picture I took, attached. Not as noticeable as in the preview window, as the bands scroll like an old CRT....
[Nexus One Android Development] xdajeroen:
Great work on the 720p mod!

Attached is the highest bitrate video I could shoot. Boring video though..

If I moved my phone to the left just a bit(covering more the outside view) the video would crash. Guess the bitrate gets too high then.

Video is 44,7MB and 18sec long :)

I'm using CM-5.0.8-test5, 480p fix build, 925mV_CFS_20100613_1333 on a 16gb sd.

(rename all .zip files to .rar if extracting doesn't work)

Over 10mbps read or write? My 8gb class 6 card is 4.87 write and 9.08 read...is this slow or fast?
[Nexus One Android Development] charnsingh_online:
slow, use10mb
[Nexus One Android Development] bcpk:
J Benchmark returns results in megabytes per second (MB/s), video bitrate is in megabits per second (Mbps), where 1 B = 8 b. This causes confusion with internet speeds and mp3 bitrates too.

Re: [mod] NeXuS HaZ 720p @20fps and 480p @ 30fps (Update BITRATE CAPS) Source is up

Hi,

Do you happen to know which buffer size is relevant for the camera? Since my sdcard performs 4x as fast with 8kb compared to 2kb chunks.

-------------------------------------

Sent from my Nexus One
[Nexus One Android Development] djmcnz:
Yes and sd card performance is measured in MB/s as well... with the slowest being 2MB/s which is 16mb/s sustained minimum write speed on an unfragmented card.

Edit: Brand name cards only
[Nexus One Android Development] charnsingh_online:
I have said slow after many tests. It's just an estimate. I tested on different SD at my place before telling slow or fast. And luckily bitrate is goin by the speed in MBPS
[Nexus One Android Development] insomnia:
any chance we gonna see 720p @ 30 fps?
[Nexus One Android Development] fitsnugly:
Reverted to a nandroid of an old version and everything is OK again... care to weigh in, OP?
[Nexus One Android Development] bcpk:
Is this possible : Zoom in 720P by sensor cropping? As far as I know, 720P only requires about 1 MPx.
[Nexus One Android Development] commodoor:
here is a example from samsung galaxy

720p at 30fps?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S47yo6RSvs4

I think we are close
[Nexus One Android Development] knightnz:
But it'd need to process the crop per-frame, way more power needed.

The HTC HD hardware is capable for 720p video recording?
[Nexus One Android Development] charnsingh_online:
Even droid hardware is capable. Droid hardware is similar to omnia HD. So yes snapdragon and omap are capable
[Nexus One Android Development] manuvaidya:
then, even the desire also has got the hardware capacity to record 720p videos... i am happy....
[Nexus One Android Development] roggrat:
Buy this guy a Milo, Nesquick and Nescafe'

Awsome dude!
[Nexus One Android Development] MicroMod777:
What about making the 720p at 30fps with 3-5 mbps bitrate. I've converted video before from my Canon HV20 HD Cam and for online viewing converted down to 720p at 30fps with 3 mbps bitrate and it still looks killer HD quality. I think the higher fps we can get would really benefit the video look.

Or is it that no matter what you try you can't push the 720p at 30fps even with lower bitrate?
[Nexus One Android Development] dalingrin:
I personally would rather have a lower bitrate regardless of whether it would increase the frame rate or not. I find it to be a lot of wasted storage space considering the image quality that the Nexus One can produce.

7mbps or even 5mbps seems more reasonable to me.
[Nexus One Android Development] phantomdroid:
when are we gonna get the froyo??????????????
[Nexus One Android Development] codesplice:
AFTER THE FROYO SOURCE GETS DROPPED.

This question has only been answered a few dozen times in this thread.
[Nexus One Android Development] charnsingh_online:
The FPS is more dependent on camera sensor. I am trying to clock it higher to increase fps
[Nexus One Android Development] MicroMod777:
What matters most to me is a nice, smooth video, which higher fps would produce. No sense in having 15fps at 20mbps bitrate if its all choppy for 720p. As it is now, the video doesn't look at bad, especially coming out of a dang cell phone.

I'm just thinking since its being tweeked to work better, try to maximize the most fps on 720p and see what results that does. I think for our Nexus, anything over 5mbps bitrate would be be overkill.
[Nexus One Android Development] liorry:
I've tried this and when I saw the movie on my PC I only had Audio...

(I can play other 3gp movies with no problem)

Any idea what's wrong?
[Nexus One Android Development] RogerPodacter:
i'd like to agree as well that lowering the bitrate in favor of a higher FPS would be the best solution (if its even possible, i dont know, just speculating!). all my nokia phones have done 30fps and that video looks smoooth as can be, even if it was at a lower resolution than 720p.

if i had to chose, i'd take higher fps over 720p. but maybe its possible to get both by lowering the bitrate a whole lot?
[Nexus One Android Development] charnsingh_online:
Bitrate is not dependent on fps acc to my testing. U get a 0.5 fps drop between 5 and 15 mbps bitrate which also might be placebo.
[Nexus One Android Development] codito:
Anyone have any idea how hard it'll be to port this to Froyo? God I can't wait for 2.2 to hit AOSP, so Cyanogen can make CM6 and I can get sweet mods like this.
[Nexus One Android Development] dsixda:
I don't mean to hijack charnsingh's thread or anything, but I feel the following is important to this discussion..

Here's a link to a Google feature request that a Nexus One owner posted way back in January:

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=6156

Please visit the page I have linked, and if you have a Google account (I am sure you all do!), click on the star at the top left (and leave comments too!) so that it increases the number of stars and thus brings it to the attention of the Google team.

If we can get Google themselves to improve the video recording quality, that would be great, and even better if charnsingh gets that source and improves on that!

Maybe we can link this to the first post for better visibility? Just an idea.
[Nexus One Android Development] dsixda:
LOL.. Charnsingh, maybe you should update your first post with this info. This question gets asked a hundred times and is diluting your thread.
[Nexus One Android Development] D200P13:
the tread does say source is out lol
[Nexus One Android Development] charnsingh_online:
It says the source of the mod. I don't have froyo source
[Nexus One Android Development] traxxus:
On playback i have artefacts on the bottom of the video. While recording everything is ok.

Is this because my microSD crad write 2.11MB/s and read 3.19MB/s :D:D:eek:

Its a Sandisk SDHC 4GB card (delivered with NExus One). Any recommendations for a good new card?
[Nexus One Android Development] tuffCookie:
i get artifacts on the bottom of the video only when i record in 480P, not 720P.
[Nexus One Android Development] traxxus:
I tested that tuffCookie, you are right. Only by 480p are artifacts.
[Nexus One Android Development] charnsingh_online:
I'll try reproducing and fix the problem by tomorrow
[Nexus One Android Development] Dany0:
Hey I have an idea how you might increase the FPS! What if you make it kill some things that are not in use, but I don't mean to add a task killer... I mean to make it kill HTC sense, or maybe some core apps! Just for testing purposes ;)
[Nexus One Android Development] lecast:
It works the same on sense-less devices. I guess this wouldn't make any difference. Since there is little difference in fps between different bitrate caps, then it is not about processing power but the ability of the sensor to offload data.
[Nexus One Android Development] borjus86:
improved audio please :(
[Nexus One Android Development] RogerPodacter:
ok so if its not a cpu limit but a camera sensor limit, what would be the maximum resolution be for keeping it at 30 FPS? is it what we currently have from this thread? basically 480 and 30fps, or 720 but at 20fps?
[Nexus One Android Development] lecast:
charnsingh_online is trying to overclock the sensor, he seems to think there is room for improvement.
[Nexus One Android Development] FireZenk:
30fps really??
[Nexus One Android Development] charnsingh_online:
Yes 30fps at 480p. Try recording in bright conditions
[Nexus One Android Development] mrsato:
Any chance someone could hack the framerate on the Evo too? I would think it would be same or very similar - same manufacturer, same cpu.......
[Nexus One Android Development] dlaciv12:
Where is the 6/15 update? OP has the same file I downloaded on 6/13.

hey charnsingh could you please please help the big droid community and develope a HD VIDEO recording hack for the moto droid / milestone too ? would be awesome :). thanks in advance.
[Nexus One Android Development] charnsingh_online:
For Droid I would need the device in hand coz there is a lot of testing n stuff
[Nexus One Android Development] ganxta:
thanks for the fast reply ! do you know someone with a droid / milestone and can you borrow the device from him for developing ? if not, maybe you could create a "HD Video for droid donate app". You can place it in the market and the people pay one euro / 1,50 dollar or something for it. and if enaugh people donated you can buy a droid. just a idea. maybe you have another :). greets.
