Is there any chance S8 be able to shoot [email protected]? - Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers

Well title says it all, Is there any chance S8 variants be able to shoot [email protected]fps or is it a chipset limitation from SD/Exynos?
It's something i really liked in iPhone so I'd love to see it if there's any work around.. I know it supports [email protected]fps but I'm not interested in that.

You are mixing Hz to FPS. They are not the same.
You can read more about the differences between them here: http://www.avadirect.com/blog/frame-rate-fps-vs-hz-refresh-rate/
But to your question, the Galaxy S8 phones can only capture 1080p with 30 and 60 FPS. But it can capture 240 FPS in 720p.

Technically it should be able to, i remember on my nexus 5 there was a hack that allowed the phone to record [email protected] and also [email protected] But the nexus 5 was an aosp phone, so the sources were easily available.

That's what I'm thinking also.. If it's not a limitation of the chipset it could probably be bypassed with an app, even if you need root access to do it.. That's why I asked..
In my iphone 7 plus that I had before I could shoot @120fps with a program and also increase dramatically the bitrate of video,that's why I asked. Curious to see why is there the limitation (is it s/w or h/w related)

I don't think so

Try open camera app

Camera app? I can't find anything relevant on the play store. You don't mean the default camera app right? Because this is what I'm talking about it's limited to 4k and 1080p/60fps or 720p/240fps

It is called "open camera" just search that on the playstore you can alter many many settings within the app for the camera but it takes a knowledge of photography to essentially know how it works I'd say...

4K Dislpay?

Hey I wanna know that Sony's doing the same thing like they did with Z5 Premium?
Like this is 1080p by default but only when you open in gallery and maybe amazon prime video app triggers the 4K?
I remember Erika Griffin mentioned that you can change the resolution but another YouTuber said it's 1080p by default.
Erica's video (Watch at 3m4s)
Mathew's video (Watch at 2m17s)
I think you can toggle it manually, pretty sure I've understood that and it only makes sense.
Not that you should want it to run in 4k all day but for vr or something and actual 4k content.

My understanding that the default to 1080P is a Android N default to save battery life, you can set it to 4K under display in system settings

You can change the resolution in the settings menu and if you choose 4K, all the contents will be shown in 4K, same thing with 1080P and 2K.

Are you sure these guys even checked? Kinda sucks if it doesn't. I mean its something that really isn't needed. I owned the z5 premium and had it emulate 4k all the time with a kernel and then in the end just went back to stock but it its also something reviewers would target as an issue
I hope there will be simple hack to enable such a feature. This will be needed for example when you want to watch VR video with cardboard using custom app, even if content will be 4k by default app will not enable it.
Yea you can enable it to 2K 4K with abd. I just wanted to see if Sony had implemented to change the display res under the settings, Guess they did NOT.
Youtube now supports 4K resolution for the XZ Premium. That's what i like most!

You can try this method when you get the phone.
Plus I saw it in a video that Sony mentioned that they may include an option to change the resolution in future update. I think they should but I would just use it in 2K once I get the device.
yes i knew this adb trick from the old sony xperia 4k Handy, i make it so bevor i sell it, but this was not a good option, the apps/players for the VR 360 movies working bad, to small on the Display........you would not happy with this Settings
then Sony make a new 4K Handy, and what? Same fuc....k
4K only works in Sony Photo App and Sony Videoplayer........but this can not play 360 or 180 Videos corretly with motion, only still.
Techradar says:
"You won’t find a sharper screen on another smartphone, and unlike its 4K-toting predecessor you actually get the full resolution all the time. The Z5 Premium would only deliver the full 4K experience when you were watching video of the same resolution, whereas on the new Xperia XZ Premium it’s 3840 x 2160 all the way – from the home screen and browser to the app store and your social media profiles."
I think it is a mistake from Techradar, but what do you think, can it be true?

You won't get higher resolution graphics in any game by changing the resolution to 4k. All you will do is zoom out really far making things really hard to see and the ui will be tiny. It would only be worth it in games that use proper scaling and there aren't many aaa games on Android that might do it. Buy a 4k phone for videos and photos. Don't expect people to quadruple their graphics production workload for such a niche gaming market.

if you check mods section of the XZ Premium forum, you will find a ''trick'' (by ADB) to change the resolution to native 4K, with this method everything will be displayed in native 4K resolution (really appreciate this mod), hope I helped !

Full hd 60 fps

Do you know a way to have 60 fps in full HD? With my ex Redmi note 4x and Redmi 4x i had a mod that work and with mi note 3 there isn't anything? Also in Google cam, I set 60 fps but video is ever in 30 fps. Please help me. Thanks

Use OpenCamera, you can't get [email protected] right, but you do have [email protected] (with 100Mbps bitrate!). You can make it slow motion as well if you want, both 2x and 4x possible. Unfortunately the system libraries are buggy (or perhaps OpenCamera uses them incorrectly?) in EU stable 9.5.8.0 , you won't be able to pass around 20 seconds without crashing the app (but your videos are still saved, fortunately), hopefully it's fixed in dev.

Wow, it works! But in this OpenCamera I think is noticeably inferior quality than in gcam mod. I try tommorow to check all settings. I also noticed that by running the slow motion mode on the stock miui camera the quality is much worse and there is also 120 fps. There is no way to activate these frames in gcam?

Indeed MIUI's slow motion implementation is ugly, first it chooses [email protected] instead of 1080p, second it looks like an upscaled 480p.

GCam's slow motion uses the same [email protected] profile, with advantage that if you have google photos installed, you can decide which frames are getting slowed down and it also records audio.

1080p @ 60FPS recording - Java app

Hello
I am a mobile software developer and I would like to enable Full HD @ 60FPS recording in my app. I am currently using old camera APIs (however I have already tried some basic steps with camera2 APIs). I have searched forums, tried hacks, used camera2 APIs, manual CamcorderProfiles settings with no success. I have also installed some 3rd party apps from Play Store and none of them was able to record anything above 30 FPS.
Does anyone know if it is possible to record Full HD @ 60 FPS video using ANY third-party app using Samsung Galaxy S7? If so, please point any Android APIs or 3rd party app, that successfully records 60 FPS.
Many thanks for any help

Im pretty sure that Samsung locked that up for their own camer app only. Tried Filmic Pro, tried Open Camera - none of them work. This is why I will move away from Samsung.

Seems that I have confirmed my expectations - FullHD @ 60 FPS is indeed blocked on Samsung Galaxy S7 and probably also on Galaxy S8. I have checked it on Oreo on Galaxy S7.
A set of camera2 APIs designed to return supported framerates for given recording formats always returned 30 FPS for FullHD resolution.
The only one way to get higher framerate is to use CameraConstrainedHighSpeedCaptureSession APIs. The result is just 1280x720 @ 120 or 240 FPS. Only that and nothing more or less.
Kind of unfair play from Samsung I guess.
Is it possible to unlock FHD @ 60 FPS for 3rd party apps without rooting the device?
You definitely need to root device to do that. And yes it's possible I already have it

Don't really like reviving an old thread but, would you mind sharing with the community HOW you got that to work?

How do you change video frame rate to 60fps.

OK, now I feel like a newb but this is my first Pixel device and the Google camera seems simple enough but I can't find how to set my video framerate to 1080p 60fps. I have it on 1080p and the only options I can find are on the top bar with color temp and flash and all it gives me is Auto and 30fps. Auto seems to go anywhere between 120 and 30 fps, I can't figure out the logic behind how it chooses. I really just want to lock it to 60fps for 1080p. Can someone help me out?
Turn off video image stabilization?

I turned off IS and am still not seeing it, I tried 720p too and nothing but auto and 30fps. Open Camera and Filmic both give me 60fps.
I'm thinking anything over 30 fps is "slow motion" only. Still looking around myself b/c I'd love the 240 fps for videoing my golf swing

The Pixel 2 camera has 240 in slow motion.
Sent from my [device_name] using XDA-Developers Legacy app
Woah. This is a near deal breaker here. I can't seem to find 60fps on my $850 phone.
Update I found the place where you set the framerate, but unlike the Pixel 2 (which shows 30 and 60), the Pixel 3 only shows Auto or 30. W. T. F. This "auto" icon is located in the lower left when in video mode.
For what it's worth, I've gotten near the proper framerate with 3rd party apps. Both Open Camera (free) and Filmic Pro (paid) hit 59.667 on 60fps mode. The proper framerate is 59.94 (60,000/1001). Filmic Pro can do an exact even 60fps too if you force the framerate. I may try to gen some answers from Google directly if I don't figure this out over the weekend.

I tried open Camera, and it looks like 30fps when I force 60fps. It just says about 30.095, Min 22.222 and max 43.103 in Media Info. This is fail.

Was wondering the same thing. Selecting info on a recorded video doesn't show framerate either.
https://www.xda-developers.com/google-pixel-3-google-pixel-3-xl-minor-features/
Automatic FPS Switching
First, a new option to automatically switch FPS during video recording has been added. According to a Product Manager that we spoke to at the event, people have trouble deciding what the best framerate is before recording a video. This new feature lets the Google Camera app decide what framerate to record at – either 30 or 60 fps – depending on what’s on screen. The feature can even switch framerates in the middle of a recording. It doesn’t work with 4K videos, though.

Hold the phone horizontal and select video mode. On the lower left corner you will see a little icon "A". Touch this icon and you will see "Auto" or "30fps".

Great, so 30fps is working as intended on an $850 phone. Thanks for finding this gem. Glad I don't have to wait 6 months to a year for this quote from Google to find out it essentially will never be fixed. Hopefully they don't regress on the Pixel 2, because this isn't a improvement in my book. How about Auto, 24, 30, 50, 60 option on an $850 phone?
This is not acceptable.
I want to be able to lock it to 60fps, not to leave Google device the frame rate for me.
Guys, we need to send feedbacks via the Camera app and try to involve the media (@madebygoogle on Twitter).
That's the only thing we can do to hope they'll release an update enabling 60fps selection.

I just confirmed on their support chat that there is no option for 60fps, like we didn't already figure that out. They suggested going to 'settings -> about phone -> send feedback about this device' and sending feedback that way. I am already posting what I can on social media as well. Wish we could get this in the front page of xda.
I just used Open Cam set to 60fps and the Google Cam on auto to record the same scene and I must admit that they look identical. I cannot see the difference with my naked eye.

This is exactly my observation. Which means, this could be a limit of the new hardware and/or part of the Visual Core stuff which might be a harder thing to fix. We shall see how Google responds.
I think it will be "working as intended" or the hardware is limited to auto, because (insert some sort of white wash excuse). I would prefer darker video of 60 fps over brighter 30fps variable frame rate hogwash.
So today at my son's baseball game I used open Cam locked in at 60fps and goggle at 1080 auto and the open Cam video looks choppy and looks like it skipped frames. The Google Cam video looks very smooth like 60fps does. So I'm gonna say that Google Cam does a dang good job of chosing the best fps.
Video recording is an afterthought on the Pixel series. Stabilization is top tier, but everything else (image quality, audio quality, etc) takes a back seat. I'm actually not upset since I rarely ever record videos, and when I do, they are short clips at home that have ZERO production value. I'd be willing to be 95% of consumers are the same way.
Heck, have you noticed how every amateur video that goes viral on the news is shot in portrait mode and not landscape?! #PetPeve

Okay. The difference between this and the default camera is insane. Night and day I tell you.
looks bad compared to open cam and 4k camera pro I use the 4k program it can do the same bitrate but looks like the quality it says use one of those instead and it maxes at semi 4k which is 1836
but like I said those programs look way better so 1080 really looks like it with this it doesn't
I cant install it on my phone
