Hi to All Devs/Everyone,
I found this camera app, this enable 720 recording but it is too laggy, may be you can help how to remove lag during recording. attach is the file. this is working with Android Gingerbread 2.3.4 but with lag. you may visit this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1094424 for more details.
Update: Install BitrateMod(720P only), this will enable 1080P video recording, but still laggy. 1fps only.
Well, definitely something i was looking for, but can you tell where you got this file and what are the minimum requirements (like android version etc). i cant push it to my phone right now as im making auto installer thing for toolkit and my phone doesnt have a rom on Good luck devs!
Who try, working or not?
I have one camera that was ported to desre and is reported there to be capable of 720p recording in 2.3.3 builds....will test if it wirks also on HD2 and release then...
Good news Daekin!
maybe if we use chainfire + the nvidia plugin would adjust this,because i saw that this camera file is for tegra...
i attached the plugin
I used chianfire3d plugin but still laggy.
GO! 720p recording on HD2.

On android because we already can use 720p on windows phone 7
Could the lag be related to the speed of your micro sd? . . . just a thought
The problem comes from the graphics drivers.

might be? because i have only class 2 micro sd, if anyone can try using high speed micro sd, please post your result.
thanks.

if that would be the problem, may be our devs here could help us to eliminate lag during video recording?
i tried editing the media_profiles.xml on the attached but no luck to get the lag off.

Alright.. it doesn't work with MIUI 1.6.3
People to make this working you need to develop kernel support. Things like this will never work 100%. And you wont be able to fix 720p by messing with some libs.

Well I agree unless the codes are properly included in kernel it won't be perfect..!!!
But this info is very useful, guess a step forward if chransingh can do somethin we'll have it workin pretty soon
Well even standard recording is terrible on CM7 based ROM with sound out of sync and camera not responding if you record two videos in a row.
Unfortunately, the disappearance of many devs and chefs and the less and less interesting roms (a lot of updates but no real fixes) lead me to think that development for the HD2 is dying...
Hi guys, I know that some have port the functionality from the Z2, but my question is, will there be any official release for such function in the future for the Z1C? I know it is capable, but the question is, will we get it or not officially? thanx in advance.

Snapdragon postet the difference between 800 and 801:
QTI’s 3rd Generation LTE modem, with support for RF360 and popular requirements such as LTE-Broadcast and LTE/3G Multi-SIM
HEVC 1080p support
Support for larger, faster camera sensors and improved image post processing
Maybe you don't get a liquid 4k experience and you don`t get the full 120fps in timeshift.
So it is possible, that Sony don't want difference in their App Specification.
But i would be happy, using Timeshift video, even if it has only 116 FPS or less.

First you have to look at the Android API for the camera:
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/media/camera.html#intent-video
and
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/media/camera.html#camera-features
For example Timelaps would be no problem to realize with an APP. Because its an API Feature.
For SlowMotion you need a workaround, because Android (in this case the API) do not allow this kind of command on the camera.
A Possible solution is to manipulate the System, for example with root to push our own library into the System.
Slow Motion Apps in the appstore are nothing more than recording with normal speed and slow it down afterwards. (Maybe there are Apps with root, for real slow motion)

I only know the Sony app, as real slow motion.
Because you need root for slow motion, i would try the Sony App. There is a thread in XDA with all Sony camera apps.
Yesterday my friends and I decided to remove a tree from his property with 40lbs of tannerite. We set up a box of the binary explosive at the base of a tree, and I went back to about 100 yards and touched it off with a round fired from my AR15.
I had my friend record it with my OP3 running the latest community build and I thought it would be cool to capture it in slow motion video, because you can actually see the shockwave of the blast... The problem that I found, after the fact, is that unlike the iPhone, this phone(or camera app) doesn't capture audio in SlowMo mode?
Is there a way to change this, or a better camera app to use? I obviously cannot add audio to the existing video, which is a shame... But in the future it would be nice.
I would say that the one area where the new iPhones beat most Android phones is the camera. Not so much the camera itself(to the untrained eye), but in the software and capabilities... When I had an iPhone 6s+ it would do slowmo at 240fps(versus 120fps) and it captured audio. Then you could edit the video on the phone, crop it down, change what part of the video you wanted to be in slowmo, what parts to play at normal speed, and save it. Really neat to crop it all down and have it play normally with audio and then only slow down the cool part that you want...
I was able to crop it and play with the speeds on my video, but I had to import it into Windows Movie Maker and do it there, and of course, there is no audio... If I could take the iPhones camara and editing capability and put it on this phone, that would be ideal...
Any ideas?

It's not a problem of oxygen os; for some reason the Android doesn't capture sound in slow motion.

Darn, that's a shame. His iPhone records audio even at 240fps... Would be nice if we could do that in Android... there is no reason why it can't do it, someone just didn't bother to put the feature in there...
Sometimes you want audio in there, especially if you plan to speed it up, then it would sound normal...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iz9jcI9E-UY&feature=youtu.be
The professional cameras as I know doesn't record sound too, so maybe they blocked the sound because they think is useless. :/

Android is capable of capturing sound in slow motion. Oneplus 3 doesn't do it. You can search videos on youtube with 'pixel xl slow motion' 'galaxy note 7 slow motion' etc and you will see that they all record video (on most of them the sound is mono in slow motion - usually left side).

Ok, so it isn't an Android limitation, it is more up to the maker of the particular phone to decide if they want to enable it or not...
As much as I hate to say it, the way Apple does it is tremendous... Not only can they do 240fps, but their video editing software is really slick... I don't know that I can even crop a video on this thing... Oh well.
Hey guys, have you seen this thread?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/how-to/op3-3t-unlock-720p-slowmotion-video-t3566276
I have an OP3T running OOS 4.1.1 rooted, and can assure it works.
Sure, it would need some tweaks to get the best out of it, but still.. you get SlowMo with sound
The mod works with OB13 as well. I'm using it
Ok, so people have found that standard USB cameras don't work on these units. The only known working camera is actually a fully self-contained recording device, that really only uses the USB wire for power and a few pointless controls.
https://www.carjoying.com/car-acces...-for-joying-new-android-system-head-unit.html
Really, if you're going to make the camera self contained, then what the heck is the point of bothering with the hookup with the head unit to begin with? Makes no sense.
Now the reason they did this is quite obvious... in their OLDER head units, they used the complete piece of trash ROCKCHIP 3188 SoC. I'm referring, of course, to MTC units. Those units would be *completely crippled* if you tried to record video on them, since they had neither video encoder nor even video decoder hardware blocks, which means that the video processing would be done entirely on the CPU! So they sold a camera that would mask this problem by recording the video itself!
The Intel SoC's have a video CODEC, so obviously the right way to do this now is to actually record the video on the head unit, using standard file formats.
I initially theorized that they had crippled either the kernel or the camera HAL.
So last night I watched the kernel log while plugging a PROPER USB camera in, and found something very interesting;
1) The kernel detected the camera, and properly associated it with the UVC video driver!
2) It was assigned a devfs entry of /dev/video5 --- 5? FIVE?
That's interesting. Why 5? Because there are already entries of /dev/video0 through /dev/video4.
Wonder what those extra inputs correspond to? Typically, when you plug in a device like a camera, the devfs entry is created dynamically. Yes, in this case, it was! But it was created at 5 (the 6th video device). Very likely, the HAL is hardcoded to use specific inputs from 0-4. I'm not aware of any Android mechanism for manually selecting the device. So blank screen on "DVR"? Because its trying to pull video from a video device that has no video INPUT.
It is certainly worth some investigation. I wonder what those inputs correspond to. Don't suppose that they could actually have video feeds from things like BACKUP camera and VIDEO IN, that feed Android, could they? Note that some video devices can create multiple devfs entries that correspond to different modes of operation, which could explain why there are so many.
It is also possible that the FYT5009 SoM has video input option that may not even be hooked up. Depends on how the MCU board is wired up.
I also note that in the configuration options for backup camera, there is an option for it to use a USB camera.
EDIT:
Checked into the camera HAL, it has hardcoded values for /dev/video0 through /dev/video3. What this means, is that there is currently no way in hell that Android can access /dev/video5, which is where an external USB camera is attached.
THIS IS SOMETHING WE CAN WORK WITH!!!!
AOSP USB Camera HAL:
https://android.googlesource.com/platform/hardware/libhardware/+/master/modules/usbcamera
Found something more...
There is an executable at /sbin/camcap
What it is, is a butchered build of ffmpeg
Which, of course, is licensed as GPL/LGPL.
So... intentionally and knowingly violating GPL, else why would they be hiding the identity of the program!
Great findings!
I have a USB camera I'd like to use as a DVR on one of the intel headunits. I really hope this can be done/
Good news, everyone!
I have successfully captured a video from a generic uvcvideo USB camera! And even better, over a test with a duration of about 2 minutes of HD MJPEG at whatever maximum frame rate it was able to deliver, the CPU utilization never exceeded 2% of *one* core.
Now truth is that I completely bypassed Android for this test, and ran ffmpeg directly with /dev/video5. Now this actually is a great option for running dashcam, since it is low overhead, greater running stability (no worry about Android coming around and killing the process!), and very effective.
I will begin working on a utility for managing it.
I would like to be able to capture the camera's audio stream as well, mux multiple cameras into a single video file, time based auto splitting, and a subtitle track containing a coordinate / speed readout from GPS. Ffmpeg should be able to handle all of it, except interfacing with the GPS, I will need something else to come up with the data stream for that.

One of the great strengths of Android is that you don't need to mess around with the "manufacturer's only authorized software source" -- as in apple. Reality is that play store is only there for people who don't have the faintest idea about how powerful their devices actually are. Apple's store is there to restrict their users' freedom.
So I've been playing with ffmpeg, and have figured out how to use it to capture any number of v4l2 video streams into a single mkv file, with unequal video configurations, and automatic time-based file splitting.
Its pretty cool what you can do.
For instance, BETTER camera does mjpeg at high resolution (say 800x600, or even higher), 30 fps. Crappy camera only does raw 320x240 at 5 fps. I can simultaneously shove BOTH of their streams into a single mkv file **WITHOUT TRANSCODING THE STREAMS***.
This makes sense because (1) you might have a bunch of leftover cameras that you want to use, (2) you probably want to go with a higher quality on the front than the back -- backwards cameras are a lot less interesting (though still useful enough to make sense to record).
In any case, this is going to be pretty nice.
I wonder if our head units have one USB port with a hub chip? Or if they have two genuine USB ports? Easy enough to find out, I just haven't bothered to look yet.
One "issue" I'm having with the CHEAP USB cameras I'm playing around with, is that I can't select framerate or quality. It would be nice to be able to tell the camera to increase the compression ratio and drop the framerate down to, say 5 fps.... since it would make the storage requirements significantly lower. Of course, I could turn on transcoding, but couldn't use the hardware codec with ffmpeg, which means it would be on the CPU. I wonder if the cameras support it? Or if its a limitation of uvcvideo (the driver)?
Great job!
What USB camera are you currently using?
This is the one I bought, thinking it was a rear view camera! Oh well....

Claims resolution to be 728 * 582 , not sure if it's true. It would be great if I could use it for basic DVR functionality on the Intel 2GB units.
Now that @doitright is banned, is there anyone capable of continuing his work with this issue?
I'd love to use my USB camera for DVR.
I contacted Joying with this regard, and they weren't helpful at all. They keep claiming on their USB camera is supported. True nonsense.
