Is it normal to not be able to touch-to-focus video? It seems to focus when I open the camera, then I switch to video and can't focus. This normal?
I have SGH-I997 and this ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2232538
Final Build.
The problem is in Video Recording, Camera flicks a lot and then sound flicks too when I view the video recorded.
It's seems like screen is refreshing or something.
It flicks when there is normal light. In low light it doesn't.
U can see the video here:

Is there any solution to this?
did you even try searching?
There'll never be a fix for that unfortunately becoz of Samsung's custom chip and the old kernel this phone is using as no new official source code for ICS or JB has been made for this phone
All ICS+ ROMs for infuse will have this skipping. Use standard mode 480p for video recording without skips!
You can also try to tick these in Developer settings:
Disable HW overlays
Force GPU rendering for 2d
Force 4x MSAA
These changes can sometimes enable 720p hd video recording without skips ( if you have not used your phone heavily, it may work. If not then standard video recording only)
These settings also remove skips from hd video playback on your phone. But they increase battery use however

This is because the phone cannot record HD/720p videos at 25fps with normal settings.
Either use standard/480p for recording which is fine or use
the magical 3 ticks mentioned in developer settings to remove video playback flickers, but 720p recording will continue to flicker but reduced flickers or no skips at times
See your autofocus time for blurr?idk

thanx for the tip Fullmetal...however, i changed my video record quality to SD 480p and the flicker stopped but the view is still blurry...the camera only focuses perfectly on very very close objects but becomes blurrry at a slight distance from the object.....i even used the magical 3 tricks in developer settings yet it is still blurry and equally changed the focus mode from auto>macro down to face detect...yet its still blurry in all of them.....plz what can i do to make my camera sharp....thanx alot for your help:good:.....i appreciate...
Try reducing the autofocus time in settings,put JPEG photo quality to normal or fine , but not superfine!
Try cleaning your lenses or might be that your camera unit is damaged??

Hello. I'm using Nexus 5 with CyanogenMod 12.1 Nightly, and found and installed L Camera because i wanted to try 60fps recording. In settings, every 60 and 120fps option is faded and cannot be selected, and there are some insanely high resolutions that make my phone heat to uncomfortably hot to touch when recording. I actually don't need those resolutions, but only 60fps in 1080p or 720p. What could be the problem?
Hello all,
I have a few questions concerning the quality of video recording on stock and gcam app. Kinda disappointed about the quality, and you maybe able to tell me if it's normal or if I could fix it (first of all, sorry for my english, not my mother tongue).
I found that in 1080 30 fps, outdoor videos, the details are really poor, even with sufficient light. It seems to be "grainy" (1st link below).
Inside videos with low light (my place around 10pm with 1 ceiling light on) are very blurry, especially on the corners. The autofocus is messy (not focusing, or hardly in automatic mode, I have to go through manuel focusing, and it's not always working).
When I switch to 1080p 60 fps, the video is much darker, is that normal ? (I heard it is).
I'm running the beta 6, with the latest gcam port app.
The links I provide are google photos updates.
Do you think it's normal, or the OP6 I own has an hardware issue ?
Thanks
