Galaxy S6 :: Stop Video Camera Autostart?

May 6, 2015

Ive been online and on the phone with samsung sense the day I got my S6 regarding the auto start (auto record) on the Video camera. on my S3 and S4 the option was always there to hit the record button after selecting video mode, on the S6, select video mode and boom it automatically starts recording. I could list off the 100 reasons why this is not good, but a few of the key ones are.. How does samsung expect us to be aimed and ready to go as soon as we hit video mode ?

When im shooting a video I like to get aimed up, positioned right and make sure im in good lighting and so on. just a few days ago I tried to get a quick video of an Eagle swooping down for a fish, amazing to see, by the time I hit video mode and acutally got him in the view of the camera I realized I was badly out of focus and the light would have made the video horrible. thats a spur of the moment shot, I understand that, not everything is going to be perfect.

However, I was recently at a birthday party for a 90 year old friend of the family, it was evening time with fading light, I had to select the camera mode and then stop the recording process 6 times before I was arragned in such a way that the light was ok and the image was clear and I could get the video of the cake and candles. this wouldnt have happened if the video didnt auto start, even on my old S3, you selected video, it got itself in focus then you hit the record button, so simple and easy. I could move the phone around to adjust for lighting or other variables for disturbing the quality of the Video.

why make a video auto start ?

as of 10 minutes ago Samsung still said they had no plans to change the software to disable the auto record.

I suggest, for the people who dont like it, so vote on here and pass it to Samsung, There is power in numbers. I like having the ability to have a video camera in my pocket at all times. but to have it auto record as soon as I select it, it just a stupid and pointless way of having it.

do you like the auto start ?
do you hate the auto start ?

Is there any possible way to use another smartphone as a remote video monitor for my samsung galaxy s5 video camera.

Galaxy S6 :: NEVER Turn On Video Stabilization On Camera Settings

Apr 20, 2015

S6 has amazing ois built-in, but their "software" stabilization is absolute nightmare

It will make your video wobble like crazy no matter what you do.

It kills me that a lot of people don't know this and end up trashing s6's video taking capability because of that

Once it's turned off the video becomes very very smooth and undoubtedly takes best vid in the market right now...

Samsung Galaxy S II :: Video Pauses Randomly; Camera Momentarily Freezes

Aug 9, 2012

my samsung galaxy s2 is acting very weird lately.

here are the symptoms i encounter:

1. video randomly pauses - after ~20 to 30 seconds of playback, the back light turns off and immediately goes back on and resumes playback. this is regardless where the video is stored.

2. online videos (e.g. from Internet) randomly pauses - after ~20 to 30 seconds of playback, video is paused and streaming is also restarted.

3. camera momentarily freezes - video display turns off and immediately goes back on as if it has recovered from an error. same is encountered when using the front camera.

also, if you know the web browser 'dolphin', it has a feature of 'keep screen on' that will keep the back light on even if there is no activity on the phone. however, since my phone is acting weird lately, the backlight of my phone turns off after some time even if the 'keep screen on' feature is enabled.

this gave me an impression that the problem must be somewhat related to the backlight or memory. but i am not really sure. i tried to power off the phone, removed the battery, removed the sim, removed the sd, but the problem still persists.

this is annoying as hell because i cannot watch videos smoothly anymore and my video calls randomly stops.

other details of my phone:

- not rooted
- android version 2.3.3
- system storage 894mb free out of 1.97gb
- usb storage 5.66gb/ 11.5gb
- sd card 192mb / 1.9 gb
- ram ~400-550mb / 837mb

Samsung Galaxy S II :: Selecting Camera Image File And Video File Types?

Jul 18, 2011

is there any way of selecting the file type that camera image files and video files are saved as? I know that the SGS2 supports various file formats, but I can't find anywhere that actually lets you select the format type. I've checked through the manual, Googled and searched various forums without luck.

IPhone :: 4s 5.1os, Video Camera Will Not Shoot Video

Mar 19, 2012

When I open the camera app I switch over to video camera and tap the record button but nothing happens. The camera does not record. I do not see a video time counter and I cannot do anything else with the camera. I can't stop the recording because it doesn't think it is recording. Odd. BTW, this was happening before 5.1 update.

Info:
iPhone 4S, iOS 5.1

HTC One M8 :: Can Display Both Camera And Video Button For Rear Camera

Jun 18, 2014

I love my new M8. I previously had the HTC One S, and when in camera mode, you had a camera OR video button at the same time.

On the M8, I see this setup for my front facing camera, but on the rear facing, I have to keep going into the menu and selecting one or another. I frequently flip back and forth, and it's soooo annoying. I'll be ready to snap a pic and oops I left it on video mode. Then I have to stop the video and go back and change. And when you're taking pics of a 9 month old baby, they don't understand to stop and wait a few seconds.

Anyways... is there some kind of setting to display both the camera and video button on the same screen at the same time? I looked around but couldn't find anything.

Nokia :: N97 / How To Stop It Asking If To Make A Video Call?

Mar 18, 2010

Not quite sure how often most people make video calls, is it 1/1, 1/10, 1/100 - so why do I have to go through the process of selecting Voice Call every time I dial, even if it is a landline number?Good feature in 2015 but maybe a little too early for our time.Anyway enough of the rant - does anyone know how to stop this function? So that when i dial - it just dials.I just wish I had seen the 17,000 pages of questions before buying one.

BB Torch :: Phone Won't Stop Playing Video

Dec 29, 2010

My phone keeps randomly playing this video. It doesn't play the way videos normally play. There is no way to stop it or close it once it starts. (It does stop when I press the mute button, but starts back where it left off when I un-mute.) I tried clearing the internet browser history to see if that would fix the problem, but it did not.

HTC One M9 :: Why Does Phone Stutter And Stop When Recording A Video

Nov 22, 2015

I record my drive to and from work. About 20 minutes into the drive the camera will stop recording. I have done a hard reset; updated the software, and even tried it in safe mode. Verizon has sent me a replacement, and it is worst.

This started the first day I got the phone. I dismissed is as a weird setting, camera stops after so many minutes. But after awhile, it seems to be a problem with the phone.

Ever since Denim have been psyched to take my Icon to a concert and capture some 4k video. indeed, the sound is incredible. video is pretty good. but the recording seems to "hiccup" every 20-30 seconds. here's a 4k clip from last week: and then here is a "mere" HD clip from the same concert. it also skips: I can't think of anything I did to prompt this behavior.

Xperia X10 :: How To Stop A Song Or Video Or Exit Mediascape

Jun 29, 2010

I just got my Xperia X10. I was playing with the Mediascape last night. I noticed that there is no "STOP" bottom or "Exit" bottom in Mediascape. The same song just keep playing and playing. There is only "PAUSE" or "Delete", but I don't want to delete the song. So my question is, does the "PAUSE" bottom or "BACK" bottom act as "STOP" or "EXIT"? Finally, My phone was fully charged last night after I "PAUSED" and "BACK" out of Mediascape, this morning the battery is almost exhausted.

Sony Ericsson :: Hazel - Stop Recording Video After About 55 Seconds

Nov 30, 2010

I've had my Hazel since May, and it's been nothing but great so far Until recently I noticed that the video recording function has been acting a little weird. It stops recording by itself after about 55 seconds, and it's getting really annoying. Does anyone know how to fix this? Oh, and I dropped the phone twice a few weeks back but i don't think that should impact anything. Everything else is working just fine.

Galaxy S6 :: Transferring Video From Computer To Phone - Viewing Video Shrinking?

Jun 25, 2015

So I took a video of me shooting a paper ball and slightly missing a trash can from my Galaxy S6 using the slow motion feature. I took that video and transferred it to my computer to edit it and put Chariots of Fire as the background music. I saved that file, keeping the exact same file type (MP4) and transferred it back to my phone. However, now when I view it on my phone, the video is the fraction of the size even though the dimensions still say 1280 x 720. When I press the full screen button, it enlarges but only vertically. I've tried converting it to H.624 and I'm normally pretty good at figuring this stuff out but I've hit a wall.

Galaxy S6 Edge :: Video Recording - Video Codec Is Currently Being Used By Other Applications

Dec 16, 2015

I have a Galaxy S6 edge on T-Mobile and juts noticed this morning that whenever I attempt to record a video I get a warning stating "The video codec is currently being used by other applications..."

Is it possible to determine which application has it in use? I've closed all running applications which didn't resolve the problem. Restarted the phone without starting any other applications before the camera and that failed. I'm not seeing any information about this issue in the couple of searches I've done so far but wonder if it's an isolated issue or something common.

Short of a Factory Reset, which I'm not fully opposed to doing, is there a potential solution?
