Video screen cap - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

As a bit of a newbie to android (last played with a Desire running a Gingerbread os 12 months+ ago)... I found the vol+power screen cap short cut, but is there a similar thing for video capture or do I need an app?

You'll need an app unless you're using developer software with your Android device plugged in to your PC. Android 4.4 KitKat comes with built-in abilities to record your display as a video, but again, you'll need desktop software to do that - free, mind you: Android SDK and in the DDMS panel in Android Studio

Use MoboPlayer to play the videos instead of stock. Some stock players can only play standard size videos, and your screen resolutions is most likely not standard.
Love this app. It's a effective tool to help solving bugs / other people with settings. It's working on the dhd arhd 6.1, but with a little lag while recording in high quality at 30 fps.
Future requests:
- option to show the screentaps while recording with a marker color?
- option to show a toast text with which hard keys is pressed
- option to enable mic while recording.
- auto hide the app when pushing the button to start recording.
- small button to stop recording always on top.
- option to set output container / encoding (3gpp/mp4)
- option to set delay before recording
- multilanguage support (i could translate a Dutch version)

This is just what I needed. Good time for releasing an app like this with ShootMe being removed from the Market.
Would be awesome if you could put it into androidpit market so I can buy the pro version, too

Android 1.6 Youtube Apk Anyone?

So I have a cheap budget 5 in tablet. It handles youtube mobile video very well, but it has a wonderful time trying to actually load videos in the youtube apk. So does anyone have a older version? Maybe like android 1.6 old since maybe it can work with that.

OK, so since I can't get it to launch, is there any workarounds?

Seriously, can this crap stop with the thread randomly dying on me?

multi-window like on the Galaxy Note 2

If you guys haven't heard or seen, the latest firmware upgrade of the NOTE 2 allows for 2 applications to be on the screen at the same time which means you can interact with them. For example you can have a youtube video playing in one window and searching the web in another window.
I was just wondering, would this feature ever be cooked into a ROM?
The SkyRocket is a powerful device and should be able to handle such a thing.
Would definitely love this I am pretty sure its loaded into the os so I don't think it should be too hard to port it over. Only downpart would be the smaller screen but who cares? I would def use it in the car for my torque app and spotify or navi

I would rate this as the #1 feature that I want to see in any rom. As this video shows, it's actually Really useful. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y-G-avtGf0A

Cyanogenmod was considering something like this on ICS with CM9 (see example here) . They were talking about adding a similar service called "Cornerstone" by Onskreen, but the idea was shot down by threats from Google of "consequences" if CM implemented it on any devices that Google supported (see comment to Steve Kondik from Dianne Hackborn here).
I hope this means Google(Android) realized that it was dumb to prevent this as it was an inevitability and CM will now be able to get back to work on implementing it.
I've downloaded the video player from the apps section that allows a floating video window over the top of everything else that came from the s3. Works good.

The multi-window feature on the Note 2 is more powerful, check out the youtube video (mentioned above) to see how it works. It's awesome, a killer must have feature, really.

Screen record with audio?

Okay so I looked all over xda, play store, xposed downloaded , Mahdi customization and pimp my ROM. I can't find anything that allows audio for screen recordings. I got this really cool megaman thing going on with my n5. Wallpapers and colors and sounds. I wanted to record it with the sound on. Any pointers?

I noticed it was recording via microphone so maybe it will capture the audio you want. Just dont sneeze cause you'll have to start again

That ^^ and I do know that ROM's have incorporated Audio Recording with Screen Recording. The original commit was made for ChameleonOS so they definitely have it. Other ROM's have it built in as well. As for which ones, you will have to do some research
I'll try the app. I'm currently running Mahdi. Good stuff. I'll read up on the Dev pages. Hope I find it baked in if the app doesn't work.

Or you can just plug a line in from phone to PC and record the audio then mix together.
That's how i usually do it.
This is an old video from my HTC one x.
I had to use a video recorder for the video because there want any way to record android video on the tegra3 soc at the time but I just used the headphone Jack to line in on pc to record and then mix together and you get something like this.

If U are using CyanogenMod U can probably try CyanogenMod Screencast.

IMO it's the perfect OS for a smartwatch. Android wear is terrible.
Yeah Android Wear is terrible.

I think it is because most of my work is related to browsing and whenever I searched about browsing on Sony SW2, I found pretty much good results for website browsing.
