Jittery video?

Hi. I have had great success using Laptimer with wonderful video quality in the past on my iPhone 4S. But, starting perhaps a month ago, my videos are jittery. It is almost as if the image stabilization is turned off. Here is an example:

I have checked my mounting and everything else physical ten times. It is all the same as back in the summer when I seemed to get these effortlessly smooth videos. Has anyone else hit this problem? Solutions?

Thanks!

Pete

Hi,

iOS6 turns off the image stabilizer by default. There has been a lot of critics on the stabilizer as it INTRODUCED additional jitter when used in cars... For your situation, it seem it making the situation worse. I will check how to allow the user to turn it on / off and add a setting to the next version. Till then, please try stabilizing your mount by e.g. letting the mount sit directly in your dashboard.
