Has anyone experienced static when playing back videos? (camera video)

It's happens on every video. How do I fix?

Thanks

Yeah, I've noticed the same thing. I call it hiccups. I think it's just the camera. A software update might fix it

I've noticed it somewhat but really don't record to many vids on the camera... the music vids I've downloaded look nice though... no issues with them...

Anyone else having this problem. Should I exchange the phone?

I also experienced this, at first I thought maybe something was wrong with my SD card. When I transfer the video clip to my laptop, I saw what was happening. The laptop (crappy Intel video) could not keep up decoding the video and was dropping frames, thus the skipping effect when viewing. When I played the video on my desktop, the video was smooth because no frames were dropped. I think the current hardware decoder in the S3 can not play 1080p video smoothly because of the high bit rate that the S3 records in (17mbit/s). Downloaded videos will usually be encoded in lower bit rate and will play smoothly. I also have BSPlayer installed, and using it's non-system HW decoder, the recorded video does play a bit better, but still have some frame drop issue. Turn off power saver mode will also give you more processing power, it will make things better.
Hopefully it's not a hardware limitation of the S4 chipset and we can get a driver update from Samsung.

I am simply recording from the SG3 and playing it right back through the phone.

My Nexus never had static

Thx

Try this, as it has worked for me. Upload to your YouTube account (you can make it private or unlisted if desired).... The YouTube video encoder will convert (usually) a to compressed H264 codec, and then view from your YouTube account, or reload into phone. Less static, buffering, storage space etc..... Works for me

I'm saying the SG3 is recording at a quality that it can't play back smoothly. The Nexus use a different chipset and I don't know what bit rate it's recording at. If you only playback on your phone, you might consider recording at 720p since the SG3 screen is only 720p.

Turns out my phone was defective and Verizon exchanged it today

Got my exchange just in time.

Took many videos at the Boston concert last night. Sound was great and photos videos are impressive!

So...I've had this issue on my Razor. I switched from stereo to wind reduction and it worked the first time...but now every setting gives me the static...REALLY annoying.

Is it my phone? Seems more like interference.

Also, I just upgraded to Ice Cream Sandwich...not real impressed so far.
