Hi there!
I did this video last year, when i found the Video Live Wallpaper-application. And i decided to do a quick VideoTutorial, showing how to apply an video and use it as a live wallpaper.
I havent seen any thread here with the same function as mine. But i do hope that if i misplaced this thread in wrong section or if it already exists, mod be nice with me .
Its filmed last year as i said, running Android 2.2 on my HTC Desire. The video i think is 480p, about 2mb large, this was required to have the video to float flawlessly on my phone.
Edit: How do i use the YOUTUBE-tag :S Sorry.

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 ...
Hey, so I've been using this nice app called Snap Camera. While it does everything I want it to and I like it better than stock or the other ones available in the play store, I have a strange bug with it. Of course this is not your problem , and I have reported it to the dev...but
He says he hasn't found anyone else using my device to try and track down the issue. So if anyone is so inclined with a p62xx and running stock JB I'd be grateful if you would you please give this app a try and record a 720p video and see if the preview screen freezes when you stop recording? (To get it to record in the proper mode for 720p on our tab you have to go in the settings, under Video, and set Video Preview Size to "Video (1280x720)".

Thanks for your help if you so choose
I got the latest firmware 14.3.A.0.757, but I can't seem to post an Instagram Video. I can't select any video from my stock gallery, can't record using the Instagram App itself, can't long press the camera button to record a video. Does anyone here got the same problem? Or instavid isn't really available for Xperia Z1?
Please do not open multiple threads in various sections with the same issue.
Since this was the second one opened I have asked the mods to lock to it so that the QUESTION you asked can be ANSWERED in the Q&A section.
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!
