Hi,
is there pls a way on how to improve the sound quality in recorded video and improve the still image quality/compression ?
The video in 2D and 3D is quite OK but the sound is recorded at 24kHz (while CD quality is 44kHz). Is there a way to get this improved? The sampling rate is quite low and decreases the overall quality of the video.
Also, i'd like to know if there's a way to change/setup jpeg compression for stills. The jpeg files and quite low and missing lots of details, i believe this could be much better if i could adjust the jpeg compression ratio. Is there some way to do it? some xml configuration file that can be modified or other way?
My phone is rooted, stock rom 10D.
Thanx,
Josef
Hi there,
here's my patched media_profiles.xml which improves your LG 3D video&audio recording quality.
The sound is significant improvement, i was sick of that "crispy" noise. After trying this patch you'd hear the sound is more natural.
You only need to apply these settings (replace the file in your system).
No need for additional patches or extra camera apps!
For recording on SD I recomend to use Class 6 or better, but i've made some tests on Class 4 with pretty good results as well.
That this improves:
2D and 3D video bitrate to 15Mbps
Video sound to 48kHz at 256kbps
What do I need
Your rooted LG Optimus 3D
Any file manager (eg. Root Explorer)
Download my file mediaprofiles.zip (see link below)
How do I install it
Root your phone (if not already done)
Download the file mediaprofiles.zip
Extract the media_profiles.xml from the Zip to the SD card of your phone
In your phone file manager:
go to system/etc and make a backup of your media_profiles.xml (eg rename it)
copy or move the new media_profiles.xml (the downloaded) to system/etc
Reboot your phone
Enjoy improved video & sound quality
Note that some players may still report the sound is only LQ at 24KHz 64kbps but just try it, you'll hear the difference very well
BUGS
Front camera is not recording
Camera app may crash when saving video - however video should be saved correctly.
... will try to get this fixed asap ...

File attached
Thank you so much,great job
15mb are for 720p or 1080p in 2d?
thanks so much
great mod =))
Seems to be working fine. Video is crisper in high detail areas and the bitrate in my sample video increased from 8 Mbit/s to about 12 or 13 Mbit/s.
Some weird behavior though: After I've shot a video (when I tap the Stop button) I get booted to the home screen instead of remaining in the Camera application. The video itself is fine though, no corruption or anything, but it's a bit of an annoyance to get booted.
Hi,
the bug with front camera seems to be fixed,
also the crashing camera app when saving the video seems to be fixed.
I'll make some tests and if this will work fine I will post the updated MOD asap....
I m using root explorer and i can't replace the mod file, i have read only message

Had the same Problem. Had to deinstall Root explorer and update to the latest Version it worked then.
Ok it works, i had to set r/w
P. S. But 3D recording dont work for me
P.p. S after recorded 2 1080p video, the camera stop working
New MOD attached.
This is 2D/3D video still at 13-15Mbps
Bugs fixed:
Front camera working (with its default LQ settings)
Original Camera app is no longer crashing after saving the video
New bug:
Sound quality is normal - default, no improvement.
Will try to fix this asap.....
3d recording is working now?
its working on the two phones i got. feel free to test on yours. thanx.
it works now
waiting for audio improved,and higher bitrate for 1080p,like 20Mb/s
how can i/we support your work?have u got any paypal account?
everything stable ?
Yep Thanks to the dev
nice il try it
wont install
Great work, actually the audio quality was the most thing annnoying me with this phone.
Waiting for it ti install.

OMg.... stupid.
EDIT: ( dont be kid, you just downloaded my mod and edited media profiles.... i checked it right now... and is my custom media profiles... )
Check the original media profiles, then check my media profiles and you see the diference, and then check my media profiles with the media profiles of this mod.. the same, just edited the bitrate...
And 1 more thing about the "audio" tweak... Be carefull with that, because some phones cant handle it for any reason, and the recording will crash soon as the phone "exceed" the limit.
may sound strange, but can we have a "compromise" version?
I would love this as the macroblocking on 3D is obvious on my big TV, but my SD card isn't that fast, any chance of an 8mbps version? (for 3D, double the bitrate of stock but not so high it needs an expensive SD card)

I think you should buy a class 6 sd card, or save the camera files into internal memory.. These mods are made for the best results as we can
Hi everyone
when you record a video on your original SGS 4G camera, your audio sampling is :
66 kbps bit rate.
16 KHz sample rate.
which is pretty lame...
If you ever tried to record live shows or concerts, you probably noticed audio is awful on recorded video...
Introducing Video Recording audio improvement MOD
found and very well explained by rafalense (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10980448&postcount=268).
Performed on SGS 4G camera by me. So, now recorded audio sampling is :
118 kbps bit rate.
32 KHz sample rate.
file size change is barely noticed.
Still camera is not modified.
I took, as a basis, the Team Acid modified camera - done by DSexton702.
So it is capable of taking pictures when battery is low and also by using the power button.
This is still in beta as :
1. Currently Audio-Video is out of sync. I need to check if this can be fixed by changing Video sampling rate....
In the meanwhile, you can fix this on PC very easily.
2. This mod does not use the media profile xml for greater video frame rate.
I actually put the original file back. I found the result to be not supported by all players and having some side effects like visual waves (and much larger file size).
3. Actually I examined DSexton702 media profile and it defines some various audio sample rates but always create 16KHz at the end.
If someone here has the knowledge in A/V synchronization or a good setup that works - please let me know so i will fix it.
Thanks.

Awesome work! Thanks.
Glad to have u aboard thanks for this man this is well needed!!!!!
Now having AntonX kernel supporting Vodoo Sound - I will test audio HiFi record option enabled on video recording and update.
Would love to see this become final. You certainly are right about the audio during concert recording. All we hear is pure bass... Thank you for working on a much needed video recording mod.

Yeah.. would be awesome.
Thanks for the work, itzik2sh.
Edit : guys working with Voodoo sound (with supporting kernel)
need to run the Voodoo sound app and choose 'Recording Preset' - then change default to 'Loud environment - with DRC'
This should improve the recording level of loud shows.
Hi
Did anyone here test this MOD with live concert recording ?
If it doesn't help than I'll drop all further work.
I thought this problem is SGS 4G unique, but it turns out it exists on all Sammy phones,
even Nexus and SGS 2. See this bounty thread for SGS 2 :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1172048
and this :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=896826
I'll try to ask AntonX to take a look or maybe ask supercurio on kernel implementation...
I also tried installing LGCamera from the market, which supposingly has an audio gain control, but it fails to launch and I had to uninstall it.
Nice improvement

After voodoo digital recording, video and audio are repacked and converted to the device analog sampling rates, that this tweak changes (but also unsyncs)...
So if you have the time and effort, I'd appreciate if you share your experience with us all.

Sounds promising. Have a couple of queries:
1. How does it effect battery life?
2. What is "Liquify the UI"?
3. Is it compatible with the 4.3 leak? I know you've said that it is compatible with 2.3 and above but yet wanted to confirm.
Try yourself!

it goes with the battery... so dont worry of battery!!
liquify the UI means .... it will make it much more smooth!!
i dont know of 4.3 leak! try yourself,,, and report!
What about other sound improvers,for example "Boeffla Sound"......we are need to uninstall it
