[APPS] [REQUEST] Video editing?

i have searched and searched but i have turned up nothing. i know there is no video editing app for android. Is there anyone out there working on one. im sorry but i love my nexus very much. the one thing i wish i could do is record a 720p video add my youtube intro to it and then upload it to youtube. without having to connect to my mac convert video to mp4 then edit it in imovie then export it the upload it to youtube. i have thought about buying an itouch just so i could use it as a camcorder that have video editing. as you can see im not asking for much. im sure there is plenty of people that wish androids could do this.
Main things i would love to see
video splicing
transitions
thats all. i wish i knew how to program for android because i think this would be an amazing thing to bring to android.

I would like to know as well.

I'd also like to have this.

I already post this question but it is still unanswered :'(

I was interested in this too... even if I could just rotate the videos I rrecord by 90 degrees, that would be a huge help!

Also interested in this.
I'm curious to know if something like ffmpeg could be used? And then add a GUI afterwards?

Is there any cloud based application that can be used since we have flash and maybe let us upload your data and edit it there and redownload?
Sense as if that might be the least intensive work-wose unless someone has a native app everyone seems to have missed.

Hey all, there's a thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=830781 to port the LG Optimus' video editing app over to the Nexus One - apparently it's mostly working on the Vibrant already.

video playing completely stops working after several hours... please help

Hey all, any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated as I much enjoy watching movies on the DC's beautiful amoled display...
HERE'S THE PROBLEM: Upon booting my phone, all videos run fine (mp4, flv, youtube, facebook, etc.). However, after several hours and upon going to play a video, it either doesn't load on site or, when opened in video player, moboplayer, mplayer, vplayer, etc, i get the "sorry this video cannot be played" message. Upon rebooting, my videos work again... for a time
Is anyone else experiencing this issue or have any possible idea what's causing it/how to fix it? thanks in advance
fyi my phone is running imnuts' ed2 debloated v4 kernel, rooted of course

I have had the music player and pandora not function untill after reboot. The music player would say that MP3 is not supported, lol. Also on imnuts voodoo kernel.

I'm having the same problem...after a while nothing is recognized on the media player and you tube videos play with no video, just a black screen...reboot fixes it...

Anyone tried updating Flash to see if it makes a difference?

I'm stock ed2 and have the same issue. Only a reboot fixes it for me.

I wonder if it's some kind of memory leak. Be interesting to look at when you start having the issue.

how do you do that? I mean, I've looked up flash updates, but I think it's built into the operating system? i can't find any. *I apologize if these are noob statements but I really am at a loss. And would flash alone account for ALL my videos not working, even ones that aren't flv files?

Stock ED2....same issue...reboot is only fix...gonna post to verizon support so maybe an update will fix.

It seems my audio issues only surface when I plug the headphone jack in b4 playing music, I get a "does not support this format message". When I start the music and then plug in, no problems.

Bumping this thread to see if anyone found a solution or knows what causes this.

I did hear someone say that installing CWM, PBJ lagfix kernel, and Gummy CHARGED ROM helped with freezing videos they would get, but I don't know what aspect of that helped.

Same issue here, on both ED2 and EE4. All apps that require the media player service, like YouTube, HBOgo, DoggCatcher, etc will NOT play until you reboot. Other apps that do not use the internal playback player like Poweramp continue to work. Only remedy is a reboot. VERY annoying.

I have submitted this issue to Samsung and I am waiting to see what they have to say. If EVERYONE else who has this issue and is reading this can do the same, it would be greatly appreciated.

I made this quick video summarizing the issues we are seeing here. If you can, please distribute it to people and maybe we can gain some attention. This is driving me nuts!

Similar Problem
Mine doesn't play videos from other sources no matter what. Lame because when I went over to GummyCharged, the same videos work fine.

Infuse Video Playback Performance

After messing around with my Infuse on stock, custom Froyo and Gingerbread ROM's, I've noticed a pretty major difference between it and I9000-based phones like the Captivate: video performance.
On my Captivate, hardware-accelerated video playback up to 720p was rock solid. If it played at all, it always played smoothly, and this was regardless of running programs or RAM usage. With the Infuse, Froyo ROM's support hardware-accelerated video playback up to 1080p, but there seem to be some disadvantages.
The most major thing I noticed is that RAM usage affects video playback. If I use my phone for a while and allow the RAM to populate with background apps, I immediately run into issues trying to play video: high-bitrate 1080p video will no longer play. Instead, I just get a black screen and no sound. Additionally, several 720p videos I tested will lag heavily. Occasionally (using an app that supports both hardware and software playback like MX Video Player), playing a video will error out and force the app to switch to software decoding.
Clearing the RAM using the built-in task manager and restarting the video player immediately resolves these issues for the most part. There still are some effects that always persist though: certain 720p videos (which play perfectly on my Captivate) will still show some hints of lag using either hardware or software decoding. Additionally, I can't seek or resume playback of high-bitrate 1080p MKV's: the screen goes black and the sound stops playing. I can only play these files from the beginning for them to have video and sound.
Except for the issues specifically relating to 1080p (which don't apply to Gingerbread ROM's), all of these issues are observed and reproducible on any ROM, including stock Froyo, custom Froyo (Infused 1.6), Hellraiser + any I9000 JVQ ROM and Infused v2.2.3. This is severely disappointing, because I upgraded to the Infuse expecting a media experience equal to or improved over the Captivate with the SAMOLED+ screen. I also didn't want a Galaxy S2 because the Yamaha audio chip it uses is a dealbreaker for me.
While that was mostly a list of observations and a not-so-subtle rant, would anyone be able to offer an explanation for this? Or perhaps my case is somehow isolated? Can anyone else confirm this?
Edit: Here's a YouTube video showing the RAM usage playback issues: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qPiCPSWUTCY

Never had any trouble with video playback. I have a couple of movies on mine. Running Infused 2.2.3

I'm not sure what to think of that, considering Infused 2.2.3 doesn't even support 1080p playback. But even leaving that out, would you be willing to test sample videos? I mean I can't really explain this better without posting a video of a side-by-side comparison of my Captivate and Infuse playing the same set of videos to show that the Infuse lags on certain videos while the Captivate is smooth.

*bump*
I did some additional testing. Running Infused 1.6 Froyo, I loaded up every app on my phone and then minimized them with the home key. The phone was still running smoothly and there was no signs of lag, but the RAM was as full as I could make it. I then opened the stock video app and attempted to play my library of videos.
The result? Only 2 videos played. One was a 720p H.264 MKV encoded from a Bluray, and the other was the 1080p trailer that came preloaded on the phone. Both videos lagged heavily. The rest of the videos (lower quality 720p or higher bitrate 1080p H.264 MKV's) did not play at all: just a black screen and a seek bar that didn't move. I then performed a level 2 clear using the task manager. Result: all the videos played fine without lag.
Conclusion: video playback on the Infuse is definitely tied to RAM usage, which is NOT the case on the I9000/Captivate.

if you have a drop box or want to upload the problem videos somewhere ill test it to verify the results. I don't have much of a library. especially not anything high quality.

Thanks. I'm working on it, I'll send you a PM in a bit.
Edit: PM sent.

sorry to inform you but I had no issues with that video. I wonder if you may have something stuck in data somewhere (some apps keep data on the sd card) or If you may have bad blocks on your sdcard. I haven't rebooted my phone today and loaded up ram by playing flash videos in the phone browser getting ram all the way up to 340 mb used. 140 was the browser alone and I started that video just fine. ill keep testing but if I were you id back up the sd cards and wipe the phone through settings (does an internal sd format as well unlike the recovery wipe) after a flash with the unbrick and start over. if it persists id get a new phone and for the sake of being thorough I will test it more but so ar I couldn't reproduce the issues.

I'm going to return to stock using Unbrick and reformat the internal SD and try again. I don't see why there would be bad blocks though. I'm guessing the video plays smoothly without any sort of lag or hitches for you?

smooth as butter. sometimes weird hard to explain stuff happens. I can't explain it.
I can see how a kernel issue in gb could cause it with rogers lame firmware but I don't see the issue with infused 1.6 so it doesn't seem to be an infuse specific issue at all.

Ok, I just finished completely resetting, reflashing and reformatting my phone. On first boot, I threw that exact file I sent you back onto the memory and tried to play it. Still got a black screen with no sound or video. Opened the task manager, performed a level 2 clear and tried again. Video plays but still lags and hitches every few seconds. I mean, if I'm really the only one with this issue...???

sorry looks that way. but you should have only moved the videos back for testing. i know it shouldnt matter but computers are weird. maybe it's a deficientcy in your cpu? could only apply to the gpu inside it. you just never know. if you can reproduce the error with the trailers that come on the phone and compare it to a store model maybe they'll swap it out for you. if not call customer service and raise hell or send it to samsung.

What do you mean only move the videos back for testing? I didn't put anything on the phone except for that video file. The CPU doesn't seem to be the issue, because I tested against my Captivate using CPU Spy: both phones run at 400MHz during video playback, which is good enough for lag-free video on the Captivate (and should be the same case for the Infuse).
I can't get much to happen with the trailers that came with the phone, because only one is HD and it's a small file with black bars and a lower bitrate than most encodes. If I leave the phone running for over a day with the memory full, I can get the 1080p trailer to lag, but that's not very helpful for getting an exchange (especially since I got my phone at Costco and there are no active models in the store).
But that's not the issue anyway. The problem is that I've been enjoying 720p video on my Captivate for over a year. Now I've upgraded to the Infuse, which is supposed to have even better video performance and its having issues with all of my 720p and 1080p videos.
I'm almost positive this isn't a hardware issue though. Are you sure the entire opening sequence of that video is smooth on your phone? It doesn't seem like you've ever seen the video before watching it on your phone. If you haven't, please watch the video side-by-side on your computer and phone and look for any differences.

i meant not to restore all the files from the sd card backup when you test. just the files you want to test.
it is extremely smooth i cant seem to do anything to make it not smooth. i even bogged my phone down sequencially opening every app on the thing and returning home with the home button till it started lagging badly but when i open the video player it is butter smooth. really i cant explain your issues, im just speculating possibilities.
but ill try it on my computer as well.

I only restored one file. The video. Nothing else.
Edit: Can you tell me the build number of your Infuse (the 4-digit number under the battery, between S/N and SKU)? Mine is 1104.

oh wait there it is. the video player just stopped working.
not sure what changed but i put it on the dock and tried starting it again and no dice. i dont think this is ram related.
the issue for me is intermittent at best though. after a reboot it didnt play at first but 2 minutes later it was fine.
mine is also an 1104. april 2011 that's weird i wonder if you got a refurb. i think i picked mine up launch week.

Hmm, I wonder if that's unrelated to the issue considering how easily it happens on my phone and how much trouble you had to go through. If the video still doesn't lag on your phone at all (when you compare it to a computer), then I'll assume you're not getting the same issue. Also, are you using the kernel that came with Infused 1.6, or did you flash another one?

infused as is right now. nothing oddball here. atleast not right now. i have used some init.d scripts on it for loopy smoothness and memory managment mods but this time it is only the rom as gtg released it with the included kernel.
ok found the issue sorta. i cant tell what causes it but if you launch the video from my files or other file manager it works fine. if you open it from video player it doesn't. the video didnt show in my video player at first so i opened it from my files. after that it was in the video list in the video player and didnt work. there is something odd going on here because video player doesnt show in recent apps if you open it from the file manager. also after opening the video player it doesnt work from my files till you kill the video player. it is just weirdness. there is some messed up programming going on here. but try killing the player and opening the file with file manager. and yes i made sure it is using the samsung video player when it asked!
sorry i asked you to wipe your phone for that but if you dont do that and use the unbrick you can see all sorts of issues and no one is sure why.

Maybe that's why mine play fine. I've never loaded a vid into the player. Just opened them bygoing to the gallery.

That's an unexpected development. I've always been opening my videos from the video player, never from a file manager. How about other video players? Did you try MX Video Player? I need to use that player for my videos to see the subtitles (the video I sent you has subtitles that will display in MX Video Player and mVideoPlayer, but the former is better at displaying them).
Edit: Actually, I just tried playing the video from both the stock file manager and the Gallery app, and I still have the exact same issues as the video app :/

[Q] CM7 video playback

I've got an Infuse 4g with the "compiled CM7" ROM... I'm getting slow video playback.
The test material I'm using is a TV show, transcoded using handbrake on the iPhone 4 preset, modified for 800px screen width.
Plays smoothly on computer and on phone using MX video player on software decoding setting. Does not play smoothly in the included video player or in MX with HW decoding setting.
Is there anything I should try to fix this, or should I pick a different ROM?

I've now briefly tried both numas and zeus and have decided that I definitely want an AOSP ROM... I think. So I need to get video playback and recording working well if possible.
Maybe someone could point me towards a couple ROMs... I'll try all of them if I have to but I'd rather be able to settle down with something I like now. Here's what I want:
- Minimalism. The default android stuff is hopefully default for a reason, and that reason is that it is more stable and does what it needs with minimal consumption of resources. Basically the opposite of numas, from what I saw in the few minutes I spent on it. No offense to the dev, of course, but it's just not me. So basically, CM7 or something like it.
- No touchwiz. Me no likey. At all.
- Gingerbread, of course
- Everything should work.
These requirements are ideally fulfilled by the CM7 rom with properly working video, but for now HW playback and capture are both giving me problems.

Alright... You want gb with everything working... Lol. Go by an HTC..... YOU need to learn how to USE android. Because you can make Zeus and Numas as minimalistic or not as you want. You just have to learn. Noob.
Continuing from other thread.. Don't make battery observations of guesses til you have used it. They all take a lot of energy. A lot of it die to the screen. Never had a problem streaming any videos with default of MX

On the playback side, I'm trying to play the video on numas and it doesn't play at all. Says it can't play it. So it must be in a bad format.
So, I'm going to switch back to CM7... Still think it has video recording problems.

try dice player. its the best. if it doesn't work try a different encoding. the infuse has a better gpu than the i4 (both from imagination texhnologies) on a similar CPU (its made by Samsung) and the 4s has a better gpu and cpu but the gpu is also from imagination technologies. the i4 settings should have no trouble on the infuse unless the iPhone has better drivers or kernel design but who knows. you might have to play with the encoding.

[Q] TwitchTV App... no sound?

Anybody here on the OPO forums that use the TwitchTV app? Not getting any sound when I watch any streams but am able to see video.
Would like some input here before I contact the developers on see what the issue is.
Would appreciate it if someone could download the app and play any video of your choosing and let me know if there is any sound being output.

Yeah I have, I guess I'll re-flash my ROM and install twitch right away and see if audio would come through or not. I've done everything that I can possibly think of, time to start from scratch and yeah.
Thanks. You should try https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kwd.lakitu out. I find it better than the TwitchTV app although the TwitchTV 3.0.0 beta app is pretty good, a lot of changes.
