Choppy Video Recording With Qik

**deadwrong03** · #1 (**permalink**) 12-25-2009, 11:32 PM

Are there any settings or tweaks i can do with my touch pro 2 using the qik appllication? i recorded a video and u can tell just when u hit record on the phone that the video is choppy and sluggish its not as smooth as just using the video recorder on the phone.

when i ran this app on my touch pro 1 it recorded the videos with no problem without the choppy recording/playback

is there a setting within the phone or the qik application that i can fix?

it would probably help if you mentioned which ROM you're running on your phone

Same problem running stock everything out of box. Qik looks like shit for the most part. Totally saddens me as it has the potential to be amazing.

it ran perfect on the touch pro 1 which is why it boggles my mind as to why its so crappy on the tp2

Heres a quote from: http://getsatisfaction.com/qik/topic...tc_touch_pro_2

Hi Jason,

I absolutely agree with you saying that HTC has terrible performance and I can explain why.

1. They do not have provided public API for access video/audio codecs. Even to software based mpgeg4/amr not mention DSP-based codecs.

2. Highest possible capturing FPS is 5 on your device using standart API.
Native camera app uses private API/SDK to access camera driver and codecs.

You can compare Qik for example on Samsung Omnia any HTC device to feel the difference.

Although that doesn't explain what you claim about the original Touch Pro working fine. I didn't have one so I can't comment on that.
