Has anyone experienced/experiencing the same problem of choppy video recording on HTC Touch Diamond? When I move phone from side to side during a video recording, the image gets blurry and choppy. How do i fix that? Thanks in advance.
What did you expect from a mini cam like that... But yeah, I get the same kinda videos. Recording in bright daylight seems to improve the recording but since winter there hasn't been very much sunlight around.
Is there a way of getting good performance from the video on the TyTN II, when there is "low light"?
For example, if I am outdoors during the day, video records brilliantly... very smooth. If I record in the house at night with the lights on, video recording is very very jittery (but sound is perfect).
I have found that if I gradually aim the camera towards the lights the video recording gets gradually better the more light that gets in to the camera.
Thats a pretty funny question.
shutter speed ?
I would imagine the camera is combining frames due to the lack of data from the low light, effectively reducing the frames per second but providing at least a viewable picture. This is probably by design and the alternative would be a great frames per second in low light but entirely useless dark video.
Adjusting the contrast in image properties allowed me to see more in a dark room, but the motion is still awful compared to daylight video. I don't believe there is any way around it, other than turn on a light. Maybe someone does know a way to just slightly tweak it to accomplish a better a compromise, though. Anyone?
daaaayyyuuumm dude...search!!!

Hello everyone, on my XZ2 I can't record 4K videos. Well, I can, but they stutter while recording, or even freeze up. Sometimes the phone then freezes up too. Some reviewer mentioned stuttering viewfinder while recording videos, but when playing back it stutters too. Only if I disable shake reduction and HDR I have a chance of recording relatively smooth video. Otherwise I experience massive frame drops. h264 or h265 don't seem to make a difference. I've also recorded to the internal memory to make sure it's not a slow SD card causing issues.
It's the first phone this has ever happened to me. LG G5? Smooth 4K. LG V20? Smooth too. Xiaomi Mi 6? Yep. Even with a Snapdragon 810 (!) did smooth videos (I think my Snapdragon 800 based Mi 3 was smoother using Open Camera...).
Basically: WTH?
Also the XZ2 keeps overheating when taking photos. As a result certain features are deactivated, or it even quits the camera.
Any tricks? Anyone else having issues? My phone is a marketing sample, so probably early in the production run, so that may cause the issues?
Same here on 4K recording. No overheat on camera yet. Just went on holiday and took 900+ pics with no issues. Decent quality too. Disappointed with 4K recording capability though.
For some reason I get some kind of severe lag when recording video, especially noticable during camera movements but it's there all the time. You also hear the chops in the sound. The problem is worst in 1080p, it's a bit better in 4k. 1080 gets the choppy lags in all 3rd party apps I've tried as well as in the stock app, very frustrating. Changing the bitrate doesn't seem to affect this issue much, it's doesn't get less choppy at lower or higher bitrates (in Open Camera).
Video stabilization and noise reduction and stuff like that is turned off across the board as far as it's possible since I use a gimbal and do all processing in post. And yes the video is choppy with or without the gimbal, it makes no difference for that.
At first I thought it had to to with bad support for the 3rd party apps I use but then I realized the problem is just as bad or worse in the Huawei photo app, which of course produces bad video quality in the first place but that's another issue.
Recording in slow motion on the other hand works fine, cranking up the bitrate to the max and recording in 120fps in open camera with manual focus produces the best slo-mo quality 1080 footage I've seen a phone do so far. So I know for a fact that the phone can produce good quality 1080p footage, I just can't make it work with normal frame rates for some reason.
Anyone else had this problem? Is my phone simply malfunctioning or did I do something wrong? I'm on the 131 firmware version, firmware finder also lists the 131a as compatible, could that solve the issue?
Any help appreciated.

I have this issue in 60fps
When I revert back to full stock it's fluid and works as expected.
Once I've rooted and installed twrp etc plus a few apps it starts to get laggy, I don't use 4K so don't care..30fps 1080p is what I use most and it's perfect..just annoying that 60fps doesn't work as it should..really annoying.
At total stock it should be fine.
I also use a magisk module called swap torpedo which eliminates the use of a swap file, not sure if that matters or not.
Also I've seen this issue present on all firmwares
In which app do u have this issue?

All apps including Huaweis own.
I've contacted support and they say they'll try to find out what the problem is with my choppy 1080 video.
Obviously that doesn't adress the absurdly low bitrate limits and lack of support for advanced functions in 3rd party apps, which are simply limitations of the p20 pro for now, they said they are aware of those issues as well and looking to fix them.

Ok so may have a fix for this.
I'd previously changed device resolution to HD from FHD changing this back fixes 60fps video, it makes sense that it would offer the same for the other issues you've been having.
Check it out its under Display.
About the laggy video, I just looked into this issue and found something really interesting. When choosing full HD resolution and shooting a video, I find it laggy. But when choosing FHD+ 2160 x 1080 p, the video is amazingly smooth. I suspect that when you choose FHD, the phone is doing some downsampling which causes a huge load on the CPU and makes it laggy while FHD+ does not cause such a big downsampling, because of the 2160 width, which is the native 4k height. Maybe someone who knows more can confirm if what I'm saying is actually true. The kirin 970 does not seem capable of proper processing power like it is advertised.
I have te same issue. FHD 30fps is horribly stuttering, while FHD 60fps or 4K are ok. Do someone found a solution to this? It's incredible that the most powerful and advanced camera phone at the moment have this flaw!

Hey, did anyone find another fix for this? I changed my screen resolution and it makes no difference, still getting laggy and choppy video.
Hi guys,
I have just recorded wedding speeches and the video is choppy as hell at 60fps. The audio is fine but video isn't. Any way I can salvage the clips?
Thanks in advance
Hello everyone. I really like slowmotion feature and read somewhere that this hardware is capable of recording longer super slowmo and 240f of constant slow motion...
Any chance achieving this on our compacts?
