When recording video on the slide I have two vertical black rectangle boxes either side of the video when uploaded to Youtube. It's roughly 1/3 video in the middle with 1/3 either side as a black rectangle.
I've tried all the different screen resolutions with no luck.
Am I missing something blindingly obvious?
Do you have an example?
I have never seen mine do that.

My bad : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sclRpcXMRw0
That wasn't shot with my phone but that's the same result.
I've been through every setting I can find and can't seem to figure it out.
If someone has their video recorder working correctly and could post their settings i'd be most grateful.
Your holding the phone wrong. It is designed to be held horizontally not vertical. If you hold it that way you cant get the aspect ratio correct when it is processed for YouTube causing those black spaces your talking about.
Here is one I did holding it correctly.

Thanks for the reply, but when I do as you suggest I get the black boxes top and bottom instead of left and right.
Are you uploading the video directly to YouTube? Are you using a program or something to process it before you upload? If your using something to edit the video first just make sure to set the Aspect ratio correctly. I use Cyber Link Power Director and it automatically selects the correct aspect ratio. It uses 16:9. As far as uploading directly I am not sure I have ever done that actually but you would think YouTube would get it right when the video is processed. I will have to try and see for myself.
I had this issue with the regular camera, not just the camcorder, but not as extreme..
Here's a pic I took for a Wikia I'm on..
http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/_...hbox/images/6/6e/62VWBeetlemetallicorange.jpg
As you can see, there's a black bar on the right side. It only happened once so who knows..?
p.s., I've taken hundreds of photos with the camera so it's not a "holding it wrong" issue

Taking photos with the TD2 sucks a**.
options like brightness oder ISO dont change anything. all the pictures look the same.
but especially when its dark id like to increase exposure time. or how about taking quickshots with focus to infinity instead of waiting to infinity for the autofocus to adjust?
is there any application able to do that?
edit: just saw this thread. missed it on first search. sry.
but still nothing new?
Hi laureus,
I don't know the settings about ISO or changing other things but i have extra camera capture modes, and i attached the cab for you.
The limitations are more down to the hardware in my opinion, no app is going to make much better pictures. In good light, with low ISO, the TD2 actually takes decent pictures (in my opinion again), as good as you have a right to expect from a phone/PPC.

This isn't going to happen. You can't preset such a cheap lens/focussing mech to infinity, it just hasn't got the accuracy to go back to the same place every time. Autofocus every time is unfortunately essential for sharp pictures.
I know its not exactly what he asked about . BUT
qik freeeking rox on the htc pure .. ive used it since my blackjack and i love it . if ya need a video streaming to web app .
thanks for your answers.

yeah, im quite happy with pictures taken in normal light situations. it is just when you get to the evening hours some more exposure time would be nice.
even my old nokia n70 could do that. why not the much newer td2?
well, you cant have it all.
What I'd like to see in a camera app is something that lets me flip it over and use the volume buttons as a camera switch. Perhaps, using the left button (volume down) to autofocus, and the right button to actually shoot the picture.

this can be done with key remapper.
i mapped the "back button" to shoot a picture when the camera is active. if camera is not active it still works as a back button.
Can you tell me how did you do this???I did not understand how it works.
dark photos
I too have the same problem of dark photos,
are also the owner of a diamon and photos in dim light is much better than the diamon2,
where you could change the registry for this problem?

Hello,
Is there a tweak or possibilty or tool to let the camera app record video without the camera app visible onscreen. The app must be visible onscreen or it stops recording :/
Let's say you want to do other things on your phone and record video in the meantime. Now every time I leave the camera application (without closing it) and let's say phone someone then the camera stops recording .
Thx in advance.
Anyone has an idea?
iteresting thing.. i dont found any else app.
Sorry i cant help..
I do have another question I've been meaning to ask tho...
Has any one else noticed this..
When you have camera app open ready to take a picture, if you press the black between buttons on the right hand side it makes a Grey dotted box flash around the picture, noticed it helps with the picture taking time, almost like a "hold button half way to prime a digital camera"
Am I tripping or am I right??
Just not heard of any one else ever mentioning this...
Can't help either

I think you mean the frame showing what is actually being captured on your picture (instead of the whole 'wide' view you have before taking the picture).

Sorry you've confused me..
When I open the camera app, it opens full screen with 3 icons,
Flash, shutter(take picture) and settings..
I presume every one else is the same (exept possibly cooked roms)..
When you press settings tab and all the settings are around the screen pop up..
Press the gap between the shutter button and the settings button(a dotted box will show clearly around the middle flashing for a couple of seconds)
Now take a picture, measure the time it takes from you pressing and the picture capture..
Now do the same as you normally would.. Press the shutter..
Just seems way faster with the flashy box going than without.
Can you tell me why?
friendly bump.
I am wondering what it does as well.
I'm sorry, it took me some time to figure it out.
I think this is described in the manual on page 240.
Particulary at the footnote:
'Note If you tap outside the effective focus area, a white box appears to indicate the area where you can use Touch Focus.'
Is this what you mean?
Is anyone having display issues with the bottom 3 pixel rows?
It's not entirely annoying.
The whole display is shifted up 3 pixels. (not the physical display)
The 3 rows of pixels on the bottom stretch out the image.
You can see what I mean if you use the ChargerBar application.
By sending the bar to the bottom 1px in height, the bar is stretched out by 3px.
Then send the bar up to the top and it disappears.
You would have to increase the height of the bar by 3px.
I want to show a video. But I don't have a camera...
Here's a video of the issue.

I see it too... running cm7. Something needs to be done to the display, just change the number a little. If linuxbozo was here he could easily but i have no idea how sorry. Just try to ignore it, thats what i do. It is hardly noticible.
I see it on mine running emancipation....
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA
Its normal, noticed it as well.
I think its two pixels, not 3
What's strange is that when I reboot the device it's normal, the way it should look on the bottom. Once I turn off the screen for the first time and then turn it back on, this issue happens, and it stays until the device is rebooted again.
I got the Nougat update on my Verizon Galaxy S6 a couple days ago. I noticed in gallery when I crop horizontal pictures on top & bottom it put a black bar on the right side. How much I crop depends how big it is, cropping left & right is fine.
Any type of cropping on vertical pictures are fine also.
Is anyone else having this issue ?

Yea, it's weird
Actually, when playing around with it more, whenever I would add just horizontal cropping, it would create a black bar on the bottom of the picture (this is in vertical orientation). This would not happen if I cropped it vertically.
I think it may have to do with the ratio of cropping or just the size. If its ratio become very long rectangular, that's when the black bar gets added in.
I noticed that too.
When I uploaded it to Facebook to ask people Facebook posts it as a 360 picture.
Black bar on photo
Having the same problem and find it irritating is there a way to correct?
Yep, same thing on my Note 5. Definitely a new bug. Never had this problem before. Seems like the only way around it is to use the ratio tool, which is NOT what I want
Same issue
Good lord it's 2018. Same issue. Any answer here?

Hello guys,
I am fairly new with Huawei phones and phones with a notch.
Especially when using Instagram (browisng stories), the sides of the app are being cut, like the image is just smaller than on a normal/different phone. So if there is a text just on the edge, it would be cut and you would not be able to read it.
I was wondering if there is anyway to fix it.
I heared there is something like "fullscreen mode" for apps, but when I go to Settings and click it, Instagram is not on the list. Could I disable it (cause maybe it is enabled), just for this specific app?
No root etc.
Kind regards!

Im experiencing the exact same issue. What you can do is hiding the noth in system settings. Then you`ll get Insta (including stories) in fullscreen. BUT: Then the buttons for Text, Pen, image dont react to your touches. Its a complete mess. Can you confirm the problems with touch in hide notch mode?
I will check my IG app in a sec, but I think fullscreen mode is only available for apps that don't support the display.
I think apps like IG that natively 'support' these displays just don't display in the fullscreen mode settings.

The problem still occurs with hide notch mode ON, it is a bit better, but still edges on the sides are being cropped.
@Ephixi4 yeah I reinstalled the app, but fullscreen is not an option for IG. So it seems like it is either problem with a ROM or IG problem with not displaying their content properly for different res/notches.

Yes, I checked that, too. It doesnt show the entire screen. Did you check if the buttons work properly, when hiding notch is enabled?

I use the finger print scanner instead of navigation bar, that seems to work just fine.
I really wonder if it's OS issue for cropping app like that or IG.
Hoping for workaround soon.
@Larlen so I have notch visible but I have my soft keys hidden and I use the fingerprint scanner as navigation button.
Had no issues with IG app, maybe because of that?
But it seems more that the app is not very well designed to fit these screens and notch. When you want to edit a picture the brightness toggle is cropped because of the notch.
Sent from my EML-L29 using XDA Labs
It doesn't seem to be an issue with the notch, rather an issue with the screen ratio, with the notch not hidden it's 18.7/9, and with it hidden its 18/9, and it looks like alot of the apps are not optimized for 2/1 screen ratios yet

Well, I wasnt talking about the system navigation. I use the fingerprint sensor, too. I was talking about the Instagram Buttons in Story Mode, when hiding the notch. The Buttons for editing a story pic, before you actually post it.
These Buttons (for inserting a text, or a gif etc) dont really work...
Can yoo confirm? or dont you guys just dont use instagram storys?

I can confirm this. The story buttons are not responsive. I can get them to work sometimes after tapping on them continuously but it's super annoying. However, I found out that swiping up opens the sticker menu so that's a workaround at least.

Well, yes, but when I swipe up and see the emojis, they dont react neither...
Have the same issue. The buttons are not responsive because they are in the notch area. I've found they do work when you tap below the buttons as if they were below the notch area. The phone thinks the are still in the same spot as usually but it shows them in the top corner.
My insta stories also cuts of edges from pictures I made vertically. It's because of the screen ratio. I can't get them right even if I cut it the right ratio with an other app.
Why instagram still did not updated the app. The problem annoys too much. Anyone knows a workaround?
I use the fingerprint sensor to navigate and not the classic Android bottom bar.
I just tried right now on a story: if I use instead the classic bottom bar, I can see the whole story. If I hide the bottom bar, then the story takes the full screen and it crops the edges, right and left...
As someone said, it has to do with developers and not the phone I guess.
I hope IG will fix it soon
hey guys i am using the nova3i and have the same problem. What sux more that my friend told me that even my stories are being cropped once seen by them on their devices .
