What happened to SNAP MOVIE? Any recommended apps that can replace this feature? - LG G7 ThinQ Themes, Apps, and Mods

I currently use my G6+ to do all my video recording work for my YouTube channel. I fell in love with the snap movie mode in the video camera options because it let me record snippets throughout the day and save them all into a short video file so later I can edit on my computer. I have searched and searched and cannot find an app in the play store that can do this. Almost all video apps can record and pause but the moment you close the app or go to home screen or screen off, the current video is automatically saved as a video file and next time you use the app it starts a new video. I don't want 70 different video clips to edit each day, I want an app that can start and stop at the press of a button and keep those recordings in the same video timeline until I am finished to where I can then save as a final video. I really would like to upgrade to the G7 or V35 but from what I understand the snap movie feature was removed.
My reason for using LG phones is the wide angle camera and Snap Movie.
Is it possible to get this feature back with a newer device? Anyone know of an app that can do what I am asking?
Thanks again for the help!

I need an app to capture non-youtube streaming video.

There are several choices available for capturing youtube video, but I was wanting something more universal, something like the Download helper firefox add-on.
i dont believe there is one. sorry
Yeah. I'm figuring that out. Seems weird.

I was going to suggest ShootMe, because it has a screencast feature that records the activity of the screen in a video format (in which you could start the service, put the video full screen, and trim the video as necessary), but I don't think it'll capture sound.

[Q] HD 60fps

I cannot seem to make this work. I choose HD 60fps in the video camera options and yet when I play the video back it is not slow motion. Is anyone else having this issue?

Is it playing back at 60fps?
Thread moved. Please post in the correct sections of the forum in future. Questions go in Q&A.
Thanks

I wondered that too. But. When you go to the camera application, the one it shipped with, then press the video camera icon to switch it to video mode, on the bottom left a slide out toolbar is revealed. if the icon that looks like film negative is pressed, I get four options: normal video,video mms,slow motion, and time lapse. On pressing the slow motion button, "HD 60fps" is shown at the top left of the screen. When I press the record button, and play the resultant video back on the phone, It plays in real time. I copied the file to my computer and it played back on my computer; it plays in real time. Right clicking the file and then >properties>details showed 60fps. When I record in the "time lapse" mode, the resulting video plays as it should, fast, the clouds or what-have-you roll by. I called Motorola today, spent half an hour, talked to two customer service reps. Nothing. The second one went and got their "hands on Photon Q" He didn't even have a "slow motion" icon in the place I described. I then asked him if the firmware was updated on the phone. It was not. I have "77.8.10.XT897.Sprint.en.US" which is the recent update I believe. Would someone mind just trying this slow motion feature out and telling me whether is works for my piece of mind? Thanks!
Just checked this, an apparently when you record a video with 60fps mode, you then have the option to adjust the playback speed in the lower left corner (landscape orientation) from 1x to 1/2, 1/4, and 1/8. This option is missing on normal videos. Haven't tested yet how it translates off the phone on youtube or such. Maybe setting the playback speed sticks in the file?

Well done man Thank you
Wow! you are observant!
I did not notice the x factor in bottom left! I tapped it, changed the speed, exported the file to dropbox, played it back on my computer and it was in slow motion. Is this documented and i totally missed it? Even the Motorola folk were confounded...
****s awesome, I'm gonna have some sweet ass gifs for 4chan.

That made me lol
Umm, I was mistaken
The video is apparently taken in 60p. It plays back in 60p which makes it real-time. The Photon can play it back at 30 which makes it 1/2 speed, and smooth. Exported, a player (VLC etc) wants to play it back at 60fps = realtime. As far as i can tell, you need to change the playback speed with an editing program to have it play back at another speed (say 30p) in a normal player. Hope this helps ...

Android app which allows to slow-motion given timeframe, but play the rest normally

Long title, but that's what I'm looking for, but I've failed so far to find.
Basically, my G3 can record 120 FPS videos, but sometimes I don't want the whole clip to be in 120 FPS, or the other end doesn't have a slow motion video player to view the clip properly.
I want a video editor that allows me to select, say, 10 seconds of a 1 minute (120fps) clip, and play it in slow motion, but the rest at "normal speed". I've heard that the iphone default video editor already allows this, which enrages me more.
I've searched quite a lot and couldn't find anything like that, for Android. Does anyone knows?

Snapchat Fun

Good morning XDA community! I'm not sure if this post should go here, so if it doesn't... I'll take my flaming and you can move it.
If you're anything like myself, you enjoy reminding iPhone users how much better Android devices are any chance you get. I'm a huge fan of Snapchat and use it religiously. If you use this app, here's a cool way to mess with iPhone users:
First, you have to be rooted. Once rooted, you'll need the Snapshare Xposed module. This will allow you to share videos from your gallery through Snapchat. Now, for those of us that have slow motion recording, it gets even more entertaining. You can use your regular camera app to record something in slow motion (doesn't really matter what, everything looks awesome in slow- mo). Once you've recorded what you want, you need to trim it (scissors icon when you're on the thumbnail in gallery). Keep in mind that Snapchat only allows 10 seconds worth of video.
Once you have the video down to 10 seconds, you'll need an app in the Play Store called Video Compressor (yes, it's free). Since Snapchat has a 2.5MB limit on videos, it won't let you send an uncompressed video. The Video Compressor app is super easy to use. Open it, hit start, select the video in your gallery and it defaults to 10 seconds long. Start the compression and when it's done, it'll allow you to save it or share it. You can click share, then Snapshare, and send the slow-motion videos to your friends or upload them as your story.
I've done videos of me breaking ice, playing pool and my cat leaping into the air. Again... Everything looks awesome in slow-mo. The response from the iPhone users is great.
Just passing it along...
Have a great day!

Can you stop the gallery from auto-playing videos and motion picture?

The gallery's auto-playing of the motion picture is driving me nuts as I flip through pictures after a shoot. I'm trying to hone into the details of the final shot to determine which one's I want to post process and publish but I have to wait for the motion to stop. The only work around I've found is to go out of the picture back to the gallery, and dive back into the next picture, and it doesn't auto-play on the first selection. I've looked in the play store for alternative galleries and gave up after testing a few.
I came from the Note 10+ and motion picture didn't play automatically in the gallery. I've started only turning on motion picture for times where I think I need extra frames, but I've already found myself missing some opportunities when I didn't think to turn it on.
Thanks in advance!

There's no option to disable that unfortunately.. It's a feature built directly into the app..

I was also wondering this. It wasn't like this on previous devices, you had to press the Motion Photo button for it to move, not just move by default. So now when I want to show someone a photo it first plays a short video clip instead, makes no sense.
We can disable the auto play.. Check this :

There is way. You need to enable Gallery Labs.
