Recorded videos are not fluid

Help on issues you run into with LapTimer; in case you have a question on how to use LapTimer, use the forum "Using LapTimer" instead

Recorded videos are not fluid

Post by Ferrarista »

I was at Hockenheimring last Friday and this is the result

The recorded video is not fluid at all (and it was the same before exporting with overlay). In addition I had a lot of issues (for example the exported video with overlay cannot be watched from Laptimer (but first copied to a computer).

This looks like the hardware has been overloaded... Video recording is done using an Android background process. In case resources like GPU, CPU, memory run short, a video like this can be the result. What's your hardware spec and do you have any resource intensive apps running in background.

I have a Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro with Snapdragon 855 and Android 10 (including the latest GPU hardware acceleration). Honestly I'm quite surprised because I took some videos during the previous days who were much better than this...

If you watch this other video (taken some hours before at Hockenheimring) it's even worse.

and recorded ones with HLT without overlay are ok or bad?

It´s strange. I´m using HLT several years on different phones and everytime it was ok (except autofocus problems - solved with GoPro)
