By chance in google now in settings----voice-----"OK google " detection do you have launch from any screen checked? If so uncheck it. You don't need that anyway. It causes problem with video on these phones

Video stops recording at 7 seconds every time

Anyone else having this ? My last phone was fine recording video in 720p but this one, I am not sure if this happened before or after the update, stops recording every time at 7 seconds in 720p even tho I have the limiter turned off for video size. I have 8GB left if internal storage as well. The camara app seems to crash and takes 2 seconds to exit when I hit the home button. Also the video it saves "cannot be played"

I have not had any issue with video recording at all on stock 2.1, leaked 2.2 or cognition 2.2. I can only suggest performing a factory reset. Have you flashed the leaked 2.2 yet? If not you really should. It's way better than stock 2.1.

Camera Autofocus

Does anyone else have issues with the camera consistently auto focusing when recording video? It makes this constant clicking noise when recording. It's really bad on Snapchat. It doesn't even record for the full ten seconds or whatever... This seems to happen on every CM ROM that I have ever used...Is it just me, or does it happen to others?
I'm on Temasek 5.9

I have exact issue, in snap and in stock camera. I am on stock room.

This happened to me when I went to my daughters Christmas Play and recorded it at the time I didn't know but when I got home and watched the video I seen that the video was ruined from it auto focusing so much
So I started digging around in the settings of both the camera and video recorder to see if I could fix it I only had to change 2 settings to get it to work right
1st I went into camera settings and changed Focus Mode mine was set to Continuous by default so I changed it to Auto
2nd I went into video settings and in there is a setting for Video stabilization it was unchecked so I checked it and that's it
Now all my videos are great try these settings out and see if they work for you I hope they do because they worked for me

[Q] Htc One E8 dual sim camera issue

Hi,
I have a HTC One E8 dual sim. The current firmware is 4.4.2.
I am facing issues with the video camera. Whenever i try to take a video, and click on the video camera button, there is just a blip on the screen but the video capture doesn't start. Even if i press the button again and again, the same thing happens. If i restart my phone, and then try to capture a video, it captures the video fine. But some time after the restart if i again go to the camera and switch to video camera and try to record, nothing happens.
Can anyone help me out with this issue?

Check in the video settings to see where they are being stored. In case its storing on the SD Card, it might be an issue with the card itself
Hi,
It is getting saved in the SD card, but i have recently installed a new SD card and the issue remains the same.
I tried changing the default save location to phone memory, but the issue remains.

Same happened with me after I installed Google now launcher and kept Google now voice detection 'ON' from any screen,I don't know how it affects ,but surprisingly it does, just uninstall latest Google search and see if the video recording works.

Camera auto-zooms when recording video.

I've had this phone for 9 months now (sony xperia Z3) and it's possible that it's always done this and I haven't noticed it but today when I started recording a video, I noticed that it zoomed in a bit before it started recording.
It only seems to do this when in "Superior Auto" mode. If I switch to 4k recording, it doesn't zoom.
I'm wondering if this started with an android update (perhaps to Lollipop or something) because I'm sure I would've seen it before. Or perhaps it's a setting that I've inadvertently changed. In any case, I'd like for it to not zoom when I start recording. Anyone else seen this? Anyone know a way to change it?
That's probably SteadyShot doing it's thing.
can I disable that?

Thanks
This version of Netflix works netflix-4.16-200147-release.apk
Just uninstall the stock one.and there's already moded Google camera that works too.https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/....20_7.0H_C2API_v.4.0_AllinOne_Full_Manual.apk
I somehow cannot see any improvement in image quality with that Google camera app.

The Netflix app version mentioned above is working fine for me on Oreo.
You can find it on APK Mirror, last 4.xx release.
There's an on going issue I have when running the app at 60 90 or 120hz with WiFi on / off and one 4g where the app launches but then the content starts to play and will crash and reboot the phone without errors. If the video plays back more than 10seconds of content then it's fine. I've stummped razer on this as they thought it was buffering but I've had other phones on the same sim card and wireless networks and they don't crash

Are you on the O preview?
Can you provide more detailed information and example steps so that I can try to reproduce it?
Also if possible attach a bugreport zip generated after the crash (in dev settings).

its too random to really replicate i just use the phone normally and then maybe at lunchtime try to open Netflix - The app always opens and lets you navigate and select a video however about 85% of the time when the video is up on screen it will play 1-2 seconds freeze and then restart the phone.
If the video plays longer than 10 seconds then generally it wouldn be a problem.
It happens more often on the 120hz setting but did occur when using 90 and 60 settings but just not as much.
I put so much of my time into troubleshooting the issue however Razer have now told me they are aware of the cause and believe they have fixed the issue in the next system update so assuming its fixed in MR4 and not a Netflix/Network issue.

If you are on N, the issue would be fixed in the O update.
I'll wait for Oreo ? just an one considering the partnership between razer and netflix
