[Q] Nexus S Video recording FPS really low - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I find the nexus s video recording really disappointing.. out door is good but indoor even if it's not dark it has low framerate and looks like you're high or something..... I compared it to the nexus one and nexus one doesn't have this problem...
Does anyone know if this is a software or hardware problem? I hope it's software...

Any tips? Will CM fix this?

[Q] All Htc Phones!!!??

I have a simple question.. is there a simple answer?
It seems that all HTC phone, 720p or less have bad audio quality on videos recorded with the phone, as if the bitrate is 1600 or below. I am positive that the hardware on these phones are able to do MUCH better, downloading a stand alone audio recording program called "HERTZ" proves this. Can someone shed more light on this issue? Thanks

Interesting fact about camera

Has anyone noticed that camcorder on Desire S records videos at only ~22 FPS? No matter how good light conditions are and regardless of recording resolution/bitrate - video always comes out at ~22 FPS (or less in low light conditions).
This is not because of hardware limitations, but because of camera module itself. It has noticable lag when looking through viewfinder and, of course, camera can not record what the camera can not see (more frames per sec).
On the other hand, front camera can record video at ~29 FPS VGA! Bad quality, but yeah, more FPS.
Why, in Gods name, would HTC put such bad camera module on back and (in terms of video recording fps) and better camera on front?
What method are you using to determine the FPS?
If it is just a software issue than a custom ROM should resolve it.
I have used "GSpot" app, and I don't believe this is a software issue, as I'm on my 5th custom rom.
Also, I don't think that my unit is faulty or something, all desire s cameras are like this (compared). Its a shame, because video quality is quite nice, but fps...

yeah i noticed that the other day i thought it was because i had an 8gb class 2 mem car but i recently got a 16gb class 6 and it still looks choppy and if as u say its and hard wear defect or they did it on purpose then their is no easy fix
this sucks. it kindof defeats the point of having 720p when the fps is less than 30...
Yh this is the one thing which is annoying but not a major disadvantage. Hope there is some software which can rectify this.

Did 4.4.2 solve low FPS video recording in low light?

I sold my Nexus 5 bought at launch because of this issue. The video camera simply records awful videos in low light, more specifically, at 20 fps.

Recently, I've heard that 4.4.2 update solved this issue, even though no website wrote about this, I was quite amazed.
One friend sent me a couple of videos. It is easy to say that they are smooth, like all video recordings should be.

Let's see. Is your thread title a question? Is there a q&a forum here Besides the general forum? Would a search have answered your question?
But yeah, the answer us that on 4.4.1/4.4.2, video mode on nexus 5 puts framerate on a high priority. It tries to maintain 30fps during record in
However, in low light conditions, each frame is short(33ms) and does not capture a lot of light. The video may be darker than before. You could so some post processing to turn up the brightness

I am looking to sell my gs4 and get the n5 because of the updates, smoothness etc. The video recording is a deal breaker for me because of the low framerate. It is a shame to watch and share videos at such a low fps.
I'm not sure if they will ever solve the hissing audio ...

Is there a fix for the video camera banding?

Just got this phone and I've noticed that there's pretty severe banding when using the video camera under artificial light. Anyone know if Huawei is planning on employing a fix for this?
