[MOD] 2.3.6/7 Video Recording audio improvement -- WIP

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.

You can check your PMs from 1 by 2 July but my job is dead as well as the link I guess

Nice

What program can I use in order to make a video?

I want to make an video but the free software does not work properly... Some recommendation?

free make video converter

Try video blend!

If you want to take video with your device use Kinemaster.

I try to sort out the solutions according to your requirement as described, hope it works. If you want to take video with phone camera, you can open the built-in Camera app then switch to recording mode, next press record button to start recording. If you want to capture your phone screen, you can try to use some recorder apps for Android. I think you will learn some useful tips from this post which introduces some Android screen recorders.

I use Video Editor for Instagram (developper InstaShot)

If it's simple video recording through camera...there are many.
But if you talking about screen recording, then SCR PRO is the best. Please note that it will require root permissions.

Is there a way to divert -or spoof- a device's microphone input as internal audio? (e.g. Get internal audio as if it was getting picked up by the mic)

Would there be a way to either:
Have my device recognize internal audio (e.g. a YouTube video playing) as if it was audio picked up by its microphone, maybe with some kind of dev settings?
I know GPS can be spoofed in the developer settings, so would it be possible to spoof the microphone input and divert it as internal audio so that the device could for example transcribe a video's audio into text with an app that picks up the audio as if it was coming from the microphone (e.g. Google Translate / Google Recorder)?
Most of the workarounds I've seen meant using the phone speakers to output the sound to then be picked back up by the microphone, which would be both inconvenient (e.g. in public transports or any place that has too much ambiant noise for this to work) and pretty ridiculous to transform digital to analog, output it to record it back in analog and transform it back into digital.
It simply doesn't make a lot of sense to me looking at it this way.
Hence why I would be interested to know if there's a way to make this work either through something available in accessibility settings/developer mode/ or any kind of mod that requires root.

A lot of android devices have to use a PC/Laptop to capture internal audio, these devices can not capture the internal audio themselves, they weren't built with the capability, it has to be done externally. It depends on your specific device model number and your android version. Some devices can capture internal audio from within the device itself using a feature that is built-in. If it is possible to capture internal audio from within the device itself, a Google search for:
"Capture internal audio (your model number&android version)"
Should render some kind of useable results.

Playstore -
Internal Audio Recorder - Screen & Audio Recorder apk
I use it to copy youtube or any other video & songs as mp3, copies are quite as original.
In case thats what you meant.
Edit:
Pls ignore the answer, I didnt understand the question well sorry.

I know that my device can capture internal audio with the integrated Screen Recorder app at least.
Spoiler: Specs
Device: OnePlus 5T
ROM: OOS 10.0.1
Android 10
Magisk 24.3
But what I'm searching for is a way to use that internal audio capability of my device to act as if it was a microphone stream since most of the apps that I found to either transcribe or recognize audio (e.g. Google Translate / Google Recorder or Shazam) don't have a setting to choose which input stream they "listen" to.

interesting..
