I'm experiencing an issue where Open Camera won’t allow me to set shutter speeds faster than the frame duration at frame rates other than 30fps.
For example, when shooting at 24fps, I want to use a 180° shutter angle (1/48s), but the app only allows 1/24s or slower. At 30fps, faster shutter speeds like 1/60s or 1/120s are selectable as expected.
This behavior occurs on both:
Nokia HMD Vibe (Android 14)
Moto G Stylus 5G (2021) (Android 12)
It seems like Open Camera is enforcing a 360° shutter cap (1/frame rate) at non-30fps settings, possibly due to limitations in how these devices handle camera exposure settings via the API.
I've seen older posts referencing similar issues, so I'm posting this in case there's a known workaround or if it’s something that could be improved in a future release.
Thanks!
