With a decent camera on the Honor 6X, wanted to create some 1080p videos for YouTube. The problem that I faced was that, even with all the appropriate converters from TRRS to TRS mic and speaker splitter, I could not make the stock camera app or the reputed third party apps like open camera and Camera FV5 to start recording from the external mic . Even with the right choice selected on the third party apps, it just records from the built-in mic.
Is there any way to force the app to recognise the external mic. To note the external mic works fine with voice calling, but not with video recording.
Open camera is the app you can try.

Hi.
I need to start and stop video recording remotely. I tried to use the wired headset, I can start and stop the video with the volume buttons, but the stock camera app is using the headset's mic instead of the internal mic which is not good for me.
I installed soundabout from playstore, I tried to disable the detection of the mic of the headset, but the camera app is still using the headset mic...
I installed camera remote from playstore - I have android wear smartwatch - it's working fine, but it can't record in FullHD with 60 FPS.
Any suggestions?

I'm thinking tasker or automate it, there's a camera plug in for automate it but it only seems to take pics not video, there's bound to be a way to do it.

I'm recording squash games, the phone is on glass, and I need to start and stop after each game without taking the phone off from the glass.
I even tried with bluetooth headset, but the volume buttons on the BT headset do not control the camera application at all, it's adjusting the volume...
Maybe I need to use a 3rd party camera application, but neither I tried is able to record in 60 fps fullhd. I don't understand why, I think the capability of the camera can be queried by the application, so all is needed to let the user choose from the settings the camera is capable of. But it seems camera application developers are hard coding the formats I can choose from.

For recording your voice, yes. Use a third party app like Parrot that lets you choose a mic. Some video apps probably do the same.

the problem not just about recording my voice , i cant even receive a phone call
but ill give that app a try
thanks man
The apps I've tried do a good job recording the screen, but they record for the external mic so its recording the sounds from the speakers of the device, which just sounds horrible. Any apps that can record internally? I know there are programs on PC that record audio not from a mic?
Replay Viideo Capture
Sounds like "Replay Video capture" would work for you.
Is there any way to controller the gain of external mic in Samsung Note 10 or 10 Plus?
I am using Rode VideoMic Me USB-C Edition and Saramonic SmartMic+ UC. When I record video through Samsung's default camera app or any other camera app, a lot of hissing sound is in the video. The only way to control or reduce the gain is through the pro video mode of Samsung's default camera app. But using pro video mode to get a decent video means doing settings for white balance, focus, etc. everytime and by the time settings are done, moment is already gone.
I tried 3rd party app called Microphone Amplifier and Google Amplifier but there was not effect.
So, is there a way to control or reduce the gain of external mic while recording through Samsung's default camera app (with default mode) or any other camera? If there is any 3rd party app other than mentioned above, then also it's fine.
Thanks in advance.
Hissing, wind noise?
Try a foam sock. Or a mic with gain control.

No wind noise because both foam and cat hairs are on. But yes, huge hissing sound. Also, recording is too loud. No mic is available which is in small form factor and has gain controller.
Not many options in settings. Try the zoom in mic option. May or may not help.
Maybe there's a 3rd party mic management app on Playstore or the Samsung Galaxy store.

Zoom in mic option didn't help. I tried few 3rd party apps (mentioned in initial post) but that too didn't help. That's why I asked about it here, if somebody know about such third party app.
When I record a video from the camera application, when I listen to the video with headphones, the sound is one-sided. I can only hear sounds from right side. I tried watch youtube videos etc. but they are NOT one sided. Only the videos that i record with my phone has this issue. What should i do?
(Xiaomi 12 - miu 13 - regular camera app - regular eu rom)
edit: i also tried whatsapp camera, still has the same problem
