Re: 640x480 recording resolution for H.264

The h264 thing was interesting, but I wanted to also give a big old thanks to puff for his camera tweak. I guess it's old news by now, but the phone is still new to me and I had no idea how much it was overdoing the compression on these jpgs. The quality difference is really obvious when you make the registry edit. Like the difference between quality 5 JPEG and quality 9 JPEG.

I made a lil sample pic to show it, this is a photo of some fine print. I cropped and resized to make it not take up the entire forum width. You might think I just botched the zoom in the first pic but I did several pics to be sure. The default value just sucks and it's a crime they don't have it set correctly right out of the box. It actually hurts their ability to market the phone when people see photos coming from it that aren't half as sharp as they should be.
