I can't get my LG G2X to zoom video while recording video. I know other phones that can. My favorite is LGCamera Pro and it won't zoom while recording video, otherwise it's an outstanding camera!
Is this a limitation of the G2X or is it dependent upon the camera chosen? Can anyone tell me if your G2X zooms while recording video and if so, which camcorder app are you using?

What the hell is htc thinking? the videos are recorded in 3gp!! is there a way to record the videos in mp4?
Also the audio quality of the recorded videos is awful, like the phone is under water, it has been said that htc uses the AMR codec when EVERYBODY else uses aac , is there a way to fix this? a 8 mp camera phone with 720p recording and lastg generatio audio quality, what a bummer! htc should be working on this as we speak!
Check out this video that includes talking and wind noise, the wind noise sounds like a tornado lol
no workaround for this?
I am also bothered by the video camera. It is supposedly HD but most of my videos are choppy and showing up as being in the area of 9, 12, or 14 or so frames per second. Is there any way to adjust some settings that I am missing?

ive heard the choppy framerate is because of the included sd card, and that class 4 cards dont have this problem
I'm pretty sure it can be cooked up in a rom. all that needs to be done is replacing HTC's camera with googles. Also the HTC camera does record in H264, but uses the 3gp file wrapper.
It can be found here:
/system/app/HTCCamera.apk

EDIT: Now that i think about it, it might be a little harder then just doing that due to framework errors. But hey ill take a look for you. *maybe even take the best out of both*

Ours included class 4 cards with the phone. Was this not the norm?
It's the HTC camera app. Using AOSP video recording on CM7 with a Class 2 32GB SD, it doesn't skip a beat. It's container is MP4.
Pretty much what the title asks: can I choose between 720p/1080p when recording video? My TV is only 720p & my monitor is 1680x1050 & no one that I'd share video with actually has something that's 1080p to view it on so I'd like to record in 720p instead.
Does anyone know if this is possible with the Sensation or any other phone right now that supports the 1080p recording? Thanks
Yes
Edit: and it looks amazing either way but 1080p really is something else, who needs a flip cam anymore after owning these devices.
Edit again... I own a G2x but it applies to the sensation too. The Sense camera is really nice

Hi all, somemadacaant over in the O2x dev forum has modified the stock LG camera app to do [email protected] I can comfirm that it works on our G2xs. Froyo only of course. Here's a link to the thread.
[MOD][DEV] LG Camera 1080p @ 30fps @ 19mb bitrate
Sample videos look great.
Thanks for the info. This works perfectly. Much smoother video performance.
Thanks erikku...i seen this in the 2x forum but was afraid to test it due to certain software separations between the 2x and g2x...want to report that it works great ...compared it to an older video I took and there is no lag or jerkiness...sound seems less distorted than before too!! Maybe soon they'll figure away to change the container from. 3GP to .MP4...

After I flashed weapon onto my phone. There have been 2 problems with my front facing camera, one that it comes out rotated 90 degrees for photo capture and when I try to use it for video it comes out completely messed up with 4 different screens, 1 with a green area, a blurred image of the camera and 2 other messed up views of the camera. Is there any fix for this? Thanks.
That happened to me while trying Skype. As for the bad screen I changed the Res, for the upside down I just rotated my phone. The finally I. Just said screw the stock cam and installed LG cam 3.0 which all works great except no Skype video

That's a known issue with LG Cam App... Try installing the stock Gingerbread Camera.

What's the difference between stock GB cam and LG Cam 3.0? Does it look different?

It looks different, has a couple features stock does not, and most importantly can record video in 1080p, something no other camera app on the G2X is capable of.
Here's a thread discussing the LG camera and what it can do if you're really curious. I personally don't find it necessary; the MIUI camera can do almost everything LG can do and Camera Advance can do everything (and more!) other than 1080p video, which I don't need.

LG CAM 3.0
Where can I find the .apk? I didn't see it on Market.
Nervermind,sorry. I found it. Also, it is a good app so far. I like knowing at what MP my pictures are as well as what size the video is recording at. Much btter than the standard GB cam app.

Only bad thing so far is that it doesnt work with Skype. I keep the stock cam zip file to flash via CWM when i need to make a skype video call.

I just seen that the nexus 7 got a mod that makes the front facing camera able to record in 720p.... My only question is. Does our nexus s 4g have the capabilities of the same thing???

on the Nexus7 it is a simple property file tweak - on the other hand I don't think that either camera on the Nexus S is capable of 720p recording
No. Neither the front facing nor the back camera can record 720p video. Hardware limitation.
