How to change stock camera fps? - HTC U11 Questions & Answers

Hello. Do anyone know how to change the stock camera frame rate from 30 fps to 25 fps. I need to do this because I live in 50 Hz country. So sometimes the video flickering when taking indoor with FL light.
I can use other camera apps for 25 fps, but I can't have high resolution audio. The high res audio only at stock camera.
Thx

The settings are contained within here. Not sure changing them works.

Fantastic video capture software found 1080p50 !! incl. GPS tracking

Hi all. I installed VideoRegPro and its fantastic. Gps track info on video or not. Fullhd up to 50 frames per second! Great resultat! Example on my youtube channel: youtube ..... user .... CREANOA
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g1kXLZWY8bY&feature=youtube_gdata_player
thanks I try it
Dear Friends,
Just tried demo version... Designed specially for in car video recording but seems really great for daily video recording... Higher frame rate and bitrate compared to stock camera... 10 seconds of 1080p video recording @50 mbs @60 fps takes ~20 mb... I am outside right now and couldnt transfer video to my pc to check the real results for bitrate and framerate of the recorded video... Thanks emu28 for the info...
EDIT:
Copied the recorded mp4 file to my pc... eEven the app settings are @50mbs and @60 fps, the result is really like stock camera but mono also... The recorded video has 24 fps and around 18 mbs... Better to go with stock camera but videoreg has different features for in-car recording; so not uninstalled...
Kind Regards,
Kind regards.

They can't increase the FPS just like that without doing something to the firmware of the camera.

You do realise that that isn't mathematically possible, no?
10 seconds * 50 megabits per second = 500 megabits, which is around 62 megabytes.

Help with recording constant frame rate video on the HTC Desire S

I have been trying to get the most out of the camera of my HTC Desire S in terms of video quality, and now I am able to record 720p [email protected] Mbps. The vanilla camera app(rooted stock 2.3.5 ROM) records [email protected], so it is nice improvement.
I am using an app called IgCamera, it has lots of options for customization(bitrate, frame rate, codec, etc.), and I have modified the /system/etc/media_profiles.xml to increase the H264 encoder bitrate cap. It was set to 8Mbps in vanilla, I bumped it up to 24Mbps, but I have found out, that the maximum bitrate the phone can handle is 12 Mbps, any higher and the camera app freezes, and the camera cannot be used until reboot.
Now, I am looking for a way to force a constant 30 FPS. Currently, the videos are recorded with variable frame rate, and VFR is nasty for any kind of video editing. I have tried setting both the minimum and maximum frame rates in media_profiles.xml, in the encoder caps section(it seems to be the only one that affects IgCamera in any manner), but I am still getting a variable frame rate video.
Has anyone done something similar? I would appreciate any information on making a phone record CFR.

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
I had this problem too

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.

Custom Slow Motion FPS

Does anyone know how to change the FPS for slow motion in the camera app, or has found a camera app that will allow the FPS to change for slow motion? I understand that 1040p will shoot at 30, 60, & 240 and 720p will shoot at 30 and 480 fps. The issue is these super high frame rates take up a ton of memory. I am trying to get 120 or 240 fps at 720p, but none of the camera app I have tried work. It's a petty issue, but any advice would be greatly appreciated!

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?
[email protected], [email protected]/60/120fps, [email protected], [email protected] (gyro-EIS)

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.

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.
Can't find it myself! help
Was wondering the same thing. Selecting info on a recorded video doesn't show framerate either.

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
