just wondering, is there any type of app that can record in slow motion?
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.krovex.slowerVideoPro&feature=search_result
My Moto G can record videos at 60 fps and then play them back at 15 fps for a slow motion effect. It’s a nice feature to have, but the results are very jerky, since its only 15 fps and there isn’t any option to record videos at 60 fps, it always convert the videos to 15 fps after recording. Anyways, I just want to know if I can record my videos at 60 fps? Is there any app that can do that or any other method? Thank you.

What makes you think that its 15fps?
The slow motion effect is caused exactly by the fact that the video is captured at 60 fps and then played back at 30fps.
If you use the video with some more advanced video player like mpchc, you can set the playback ratio to 2x and it will result in normal 30fps playback.
I think you missed his point.
Supposedly when capturing slowmotion video, the moto G captures at 60fps. To achieve slowmotion (half speed) video from 60fps, you'd simply halve the framerate and end up with 30fps slowmo. However, the Moto G only saves slowmo at 15fps.
This means the camera or phone is throwing away half of the frames.

I got the point very well...
I guess they are trying to get better slowmo by dividing the 60 fps captured to 4x15, which gives the result similar to shooting the video in 120fps.
That's a guess tho and best thing would be to ask moto themselves.

I understand that, but my Moto G converts those 60 fps to 15 fps to make the video 4 times slower. What I want is, if my Moto G can record at 60 fps, there must be a way to save that footage at 60 fps and not at 15 fps. As you said, I can play my video at 2x speed, but then I'm only playing it faster to get some smoothness, the video is still saved at 15 fps. And why I want my videos to be saved at 60 fps? Because then I can edit my video in After Effects to really get some smooth slow motion.
For easier explanation the Moto is only capable to record 60 fps. These frames are all saved, but played back at 15 fps, so the video appears in slow motion. If you wanted to have 60 fps in a slow motion effect, you'd have to record at an even higher framerate (e.g. 120/240 fps).
However, if you intend to work on the video in After Effects anyways, theres no point in saving it to 60 fps, which would only mean return the playback to 60 fps / normal time.
You can archive this easily by setting footage interpretation as 60 fps in After Effects.
After that you can slow it down again with AE's internal frame interpolation to get a smoother result :good:
I hate to dig this old thread up, but I also am wondering this same question. The Moto G seems to record at 60fps in slow motion mode before slowing it down to 25% speed, outputting 15fps video. I'm wondering if there's a way to get the phone to record in 720p/60fps straight out of camera.
hi guys can anyone tell me is it possible to record a normal video in 120 fps in my mi4 mobile.
Because i need that to use it in my editing program to slow the video.
My camera is able to record only at 30 fps and its not enough for the editing software to render smooth slow motion video, that i intend to create.
so as per the research i did, i came to know that i need to have a normal speed (real-time) video recording in 120 Fps.
so what should i need to do to increase my mobile's 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!
Is there any way to record slow motion videos in 960fps just like we are able to do in 120 and 240fps? Not just short few seconds clips.
