dear galaxians,
I tried to read this thread finding answers to my video recording framerate woes, but this thread is 2F2F! haha

anyway, i am requesting helpful forumers here to test your video recording @ 1080p.

1) Go to a room dimly lit, like your office.
2) Flick your GS2 to video @ 1080p.
3) start recording.
4) Pan left and right, slowly and quickly
5) Playback and check if any framerate drop; like lag, stutters..
6) Report back.

In the xda forums, many has complained but no permanent fix yet. It's a bit disappointing knowing S2 being high-end device suffers from such low fps when recording.
Hope most of you can report your findings. Thanks all!

yes the FPS in a dark environment falls when you pan left and right quickly. this is because of 2 reason i suspect. 1 the darkness, as the camera fights to adjust exposure as u pan, and 2, the auto focus. the camera is actually continuously autofocusing. so i believe the darkness makes it harder to autofocus which in turn makes it lag.

thats why there is absolutely zero FPS drop in a nicely lit room even tho u pan fast.

additionally, i dont think you're supposed to "pan" so fast anyway, who pans like that when video recording. try video recording in a dimly lit area of someone walking by/running by the FPS is fine, which i believe is more important

I just tried. Captured two videos (one lasts for 8 seconds another lasts for 9 seconds). One under office lighting and another facing outside of the building with sunlight beaming over.

1. Panned left to right, vice versa: slowly and quickly.
2. Play back and...framerate is the same. Definitely no lag. Stuttering also not there.
3. However, I noticed there's a greenish blotch in the middle screen. I thought this happened when taking pictures but in video, the greenish blotch is visible (I captured on the white tiles on the floor. Maybe it's terrazzo flooring or something)

That's it for my video reporting.

I think I know.

But lets not ruin the surprise shall we... *wink*

Anyway, RPG lovers will also be happy that we can actually run ANY of the Baldurs Gate game (Planescape Torment included) as well on the SGS2.

Control without a BT mouse is... painful though.

Still waiting for someone (anyone!) to port Jagged Alliance 2 to Android. For the love of God, if my old N900 and even my N810 can do it, why not my android superduperultraphone?

u tested baldur's gate? any FPS drops, and sound and music okay? my diablo full speed but cant play music (on and off got music).sound effects got tho.

dang... looks like rm15+ is coming out of my wallet... i am guessing FF7 should work as well?!? hmmm...

but i'll bug you guys when i'm ready. was doing a quick search. found the apps. but also found another apps called psx bios. not sure what is what... hope you dun mind me bugging you when i'm ready to download. now need to check what PS1 games i have... have to go look into the storeroom.
*
bios is the...well...bios to run the game. look at the video you'll see me showing you how to set up the bios at the beginning.

FF7 AND FF8 and FF9 works 100% full speed, although some sound stuttering issues.

ive overplayed Final Fantasy, bored of it.

Diablo meanwhile, actually more resource hungry than FF. FF renders the location piece meal while diablo has to render the entire level, which is why Apple Iphone 4 can run FF7 but cant run Diablo. Diablo runs just fine on our SGS2.

anyone has problem with indoor check ins? Mine can't seem to even find the location, no matter how many times i try. Have gps test and been trying to clear/update agps but still no avail. Could it be hardware prob?

GPS not supposed to work indoor. Heck even Vcool interrupts the GPS. GPS uses sattelite, so u should have a clear view of the sky.
