[Q] Video making app

Hi, is there any similar application as Nokia Movie Director that can make a video file using pictures and music?
Guess there isn’t any app like that
I would request some app for making movies on the phone too..
Tbh I'm disappointed that Android still lacks such an important function.. You can take pictures.. edit them.. record sound/voice.. cut them.. but what about videos?
It's time now, come on!

Hi! Thank you.I tried greenify root and hybernated maximum google apps but there is still no improvement.Android system seems out of control,grabbing all the internet data when i launch youtube app or viewing videos with the browser...maybe you can show me how to really make it. Thank you for your help.
Hi! I found a solution for youtube streaming. I don't use any youtube app. I just use the default browser. I enable desktop view and enable flash player too. And when I click on a video I set the quality on 144p or more.depending on my network strength. And that is all!! Now I watch easily and smoothly videos on youtube! Android system takes almost nothing from internet data while streaming videos. I can even vew them fullscreen mode. My brother's X peria Z had the same youtube issue.When I enabled desktop view and installed flash player on his device,everything goes smooth!!
I guess it could help others in the same situation. Thanks.

How to edit 360 video

Is there a program that I can use that's easy to cut up the 360 video and delete bits I don't want?
m in need of such a program myself. Everything I use messes up the video when I upload to youtube.
Hi, you need to use a tool that maintains all the backend stuff that lets YouTube know it's 360 video. This basically means you need to spend *some* money on a decent video editing package. Freeware type stuff is likely not to work (as well as open up your editing computer to malware). Lots of people use Adobe Premiere or Final Cut Pro (essentially industry standard software for video editing) which are expensive to buy - but there are trials you can use to check 'em out. Cheaper options from companies like Magix are available - their MAGIX Movie Edit Pro 2016 Plus product allows for 360 editing and costs £70 (again there is a trial you can use).
Probably be helpful to hear what camera you're using, what you've used to edit and how it didn't work?
If it's any help, I'm just about to dip my toes into 360 video editing at work and I'm planning on using Adobe Premiere Pro for the main editing.
I don't have my cam yet but watched this video explaining how to do it. Installed one of the apps and seems simple enough to use going by what the video says.

I have to mute an audio portion of my video due to an copyrighted song. I have have yet to find a program that will let me edit the video without the uploaded video being no-360 and distorted.

Probably be helpful to list the software that hasn't worked...
As I said above, to edit 360 video you need to use a package that keeps all the additional data (that flags it as 360 content) intact. Most freeware software will not do it properly (or at all) which is why it's distorted or not rendering as 360 video when you upload it. This means spending some cash, or using trial software or *cough* your preferred method of circumnavigating such restrictions. :angel:
Hey guys, I've been using Premiere to edit my 360 videos so I dont know about any free software that would allow you to edit your videos. What I do know is that any other program you use to edit will remove the metadata needed for Youtube or Facebook to know its a 360 video. There is a small piece of software, which is free, that you'll have to use to "inject" the metadata necessary to make it a 360 video again. Its super fast and easy to use. If you do a quick search in google for "360 metadata injector" you should be able to find a ton of results on where to download it and how to use it. Hope this helps.

Yes of course! Since this is an LG thread I assume we're talking about the LG 360 Cam and not the Ricoh Theta. The Ricoh Theta has PC software which the LG Cam doesn't. The LG 360 Cam is designed to work with a phone, this means that to get videos that you can later edit you'll need to download them through the phone app and then move them to your computer. In the process of downloading to the device, the app will also stitch your 360 video, this might be the reason why it takes so long for the video to download.
Once you have downloaded all the videos you want, move them to your computer. Use your favorite video editing software. Make sure that the aspect ratio does not change or gets cropped. The video resolution size should be 2560x1280. When you're happy with your editing, export/render your video. Now look for and download the software called "Spatial Media Metadata Injector" its free. This will allow you to re-add the metadata info that lets YouTube, Facebook or any other site that this is a 360 video. This info is lost when the video was edited. Open the program and choose the video you edited and select the "Spherical" check box. Now use the "Save As" and save the new "injected" video. That will be the video you'll want to post anywhere and it will be recognized as a 360 video.
Let me know if you have any questions!
Happy 360 shooting!

I have used Power Director 12 and Nero to attempt to edit them. I "inject" the metadata after editing them and it seems to be a normal 360 video prior to uploading them. Once uploaded they become distorted.

So, they're obviously mangling it in some other way (welcome to the world of video editing - the amount of times a codec behaving badly has made me want to cry...).
What format is the unedited footage saved as and what format have you outputted edited footage as prior to injecting the metadata?

Give Adobe Premiere a go editing to see if it maintains the 360 gubbins when you upload the edited footage, follow what @asainz320 said on the previous page for exporting.
That way you'll know it *will* work. Then it's a case of finding software that will edit within your price bracket.

Adobe ain't gonna maintain it since it's already not there. When you copy a video over to a computer its already 2 fish eyes.
I found some app for the computer from another 360 cams website that you can watch them on computer but the stitching isnt great.

Yeah - you're right with the LG Cam. I've been messing around with a Theta S at work which produces similar duel fish eye footage. Can confirm that when you stitch that together and edit in Adobe Premiere, then inject the metadata the footage uploads perfectly to YouTube. So you need to find something to stitch the footage.
http://chrissniderdesign.com/blog/2015/11/23/how-to-edit-360-video-in-premiere/ is the workflow I'm using, doubt the free tool would work with LG Cam footage but it's free so worth a crack - if you want to pm me a short bit of footage from the LG Cam I'd be happy to run it through to confirm one way or the other.
I'm also going to try above workflow using the more modestly priced Sony Movie Studio so will confirm whether that works.
Once again. The LG 360 CAM was not meant to be used stand alone. You will need to download the videos to your phone before you can get something you can work with. There is no software yet to convert the raw videos from your LG camera.

So the LG Software on the LG Support Site doesn't allow you to convert footage externally to a camera? Cos this video seems to beg to differ.
well I'm using Ricoh Theta + video editor on iPhone for on the go video editing
