4k recording - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I wanted to ask the owners. Just how large the 4k files are? For example how large 10min video shot in s6 is?
I am asking so that I can choose proper amount of memory when I buy.
Thanks!

It only lets you record 5 minutes at a time at resolutions above 1080. I shot a 56 second video at 4k and it is 326MB. Plus another one at night 30 seconds was 175MB.

[Q] Force low FPS to make time-lapse videos

Hi!
I used to be a lurker around here (only looked, never posted), but now I'm a proud noob =D
My problem is: I have a Moto Milestone, and tried to use it as a time-lapse camera for driving, but the minimum time between frames I could get was 5 seconds, and the resulting video was just bad (and any app crashed after a few frames). Ideally it should be 1-2 seconds between frames. I was wondering if there could be a way to force lower FPS on the video camera to make the low-fps video. Of course the video would be sped-up later to get the nice time-lapse effect.
Is it possible?

Fantastic video capture software found 1080p50 !! incl. GPS tracking

Hi all. I installed VideoRegPro and its fantastic. Gps track info on video or not. Fullhd up to 50 frames per second! Great resultat! Example on my youtube channel: youtube ..... user .... CREANOA

thanks I try it
Dear Friends,
Just tried demo version... Designed specially for in car video recording but seems really great for daily video recording... Higher frame rate and bitrate compared to stock camera... 10 seconds of 1080p video recording @50 mbs @60 fps takes ~20 mb... I am outside right now and couldnt transfer video to my pc to check the real results for bitrate and framerate of the recorded video... Thanks emu28 for the info...
EDIT:
Copied the recorded mp4 file to my pc... eEven the app settings are @50mbs and @60 fps, the result is really like stock camera but mono also... The recorded video has 24 fps and around 18 mbs... Better to go with stock camera but videoreg has different features for in-car recording; so not uninstalled...
Kind Regards,
Kind regards.

For me of course perfect, sensation for my youtube channel with car driving, now incl. Gps data... just waiting for next storms or so...
That's a neat app, I'll get it a try - thanks.
New test video, night, on my channel. Youtube/user/creanoa

They can't increase the FPS just like that without doing something to the firmware of the camera.

You do realise that that isn't mathematically possible, no?
10 seconds * 50 megabits per second = 500 megabits, which is around 62 megabytes.

Dear ZanjerH,
U r right... As i mentioned in my previous post, app cant provide the expected results as set in its settings...
Kind Regards.

New TRANCE MUSIC video clip www.youtube.com/user/creanoa ........speed, alt and so did record the software, after you need to render the video inside the software... recordet in 1080... but not so happy with night quality.. all my videos enjoy with sound ON, because more relaxing

[Q] Can I record videos at 60 fps on my Moto G?

My Moto G can record videos at 60 fps and then play them back at 15 fps for a slow motion effect. It’s a nice feature to have, but the results are very jerky, since its only 15 fps and there isn’t any option to record videos at 60 fps, it always convert the videos to 15 fps after recording. Anyways, I just want to know if I can record my videos at 60 fps? Is there any app that can do that or any other method? Thank you.

What makes you think that its 15fps?
The slow motion effect is caused exactly by the fact that the video is captured at 60 fps and then played back at 30fps.
If you use the video with some more advanced video player like mpchc, you can set the playback ratio to 2x and it will result in normal 30fps playback.
I think you missed his point.
Supposedly when capturing slowmotion video, the moto G captures at 60fps. To achieve slowmotion (half speed) video from 60fps, you'd simply halve the framerate and end up with 30fps slowmo. However, the Moto G only saves slowmo at 15fps.
This means the camera or phone is throwing away half of the frames.

I got the point very well...
I guess they are trying to get better slowmo by dividing the 60 fps captured to 4x15, which gives the result similar to shooting the video in 120fps.
That's a guess tho and best thing would be to ask moto themselves.

I understand that, but my Moto G converts those 60 fps to 15 fps to make the video 4 times slower. What I want is, if my Moto G can record at 60 fps, there must be a way to save that footage at 60 fps and not at 15 fps. As you said, I can play my video at 2x speed, but then I'm only playing it faster to get some smoothness, the video is still saved at 15 fps. And why I want my videos to be saved at 60 fps? Because then I can edit my video in After Effects to really get some smooth slow motion.
For easier explanation the Moto is only capable to record 60 fps. These frames are all saved, but played back at 15 fps, so the video appears in slow motion. If you wanted to have 60 fps in a slow motion effect, you'd have to record at an even higher framerate (e.g. 120/240 fps).
However, if you intend to work on the video in After Effects anyways, theres no point in saving it to 60 fps, which would only mean return the playback to 60 fps / normal time.
You can archive this easily by setting footage interpretation as 60 fps in After Effects.
After that you can slow it down again with AE's internal frame interpolation to get a smoother result :good:
I hate to dig this old thread up, but I also am wondering this same question. The Moto G seems to record at 60fps in slow motion mode before slowing it down to 25% speed, outputting 15fps video. I'm wondering if there's a way to get the phone to record in 720p/60fps straight out of camera.

Reduce video file size?

Being new to the world of shooting and compressing videos I wanted to ask you which is the best way to reduce video file size without major quality loss?
I am not an expert in videos and optics, all the info about bitrate, codecs and stuff is alien to me. As a simple IT whiz/programmer I want to shoot quality videos (let's say, on long trips, vacation, etc) with a smaller file size, in order to record more. I just don't want to bring my laptop everywhere over the world and store a huge amount of data on it.
As an example, and everyone might have heard this, but many full length movies (+90 mins) with 1080p resolution and quite a quality image have a file size of approx. 2GB. I just took a 6 min FHD about some fireworks and it came out 1,2 GB. That's way to much and I can't afford to store videos that large if I intend to shoot some more...
So any idea on how to save up space and shoot quality but lower file size videos might help me, and I'd be grateful!
Cheers!

How to record normal video in 120 fps

hi guys can anyone tell me is it possible to record a normal video in 120 fps in my mi4 mobile.
Because i need that to use it in my editing program to slow the video.
My camera is able to record only at 30 fps and its not enough for the editing software to render smooth slow motion video, that i intend to create.
so as per the research i did, i came to know that i need to have a normal speed (real-time) video recording in 120 Fps.
so what should i need to do to increase my mobile's Fps.
