I use the app on an LG G4 running Android 6.0. I was able to record videos in 4K, however, the files show wrong metadata and can't be opened correctly by some programs including Adobe Premiere. The files show a wrong fps of about 14-15 fps (although they had been filmed in 30fps) and the video runs slower than the audio (at 15 fps -> so I have to make the video track around 200% faster). In VLC there are shown some frame skips and the fps is also not accurate (28 but still not correct). I can provide files if needed.
P.S.: I could also help improving some of the interface as I'm an android developer if there is interest here.
Thanks for an otherwise great app!
Regards
Torsten

Thanks for the info - unfortunately I'm not sure there's much I can do, the video file including metadata is included by the camera driver. 4K doesn't seem to be well supported to 3rd party camera apps by many devices unfortunately.
I'm open to suggestions for improvements to the interface.

I have a samsung galaxy s5 and sometimes have a similar problem. I'll do a test video and everything works fine. Then when I go to do the "real" video, the file seems to be corrupted and it won't play. IDK if it's a problem with my phone, the sd card, overheating. Any suggestions? reset to default settings, reboot the phone? thanks

Sorry to hear that - unfortunately video recording seems to be one of the trickiest things to get working across thousands of Android devices/camera - so it's not like it doesn't work at all, rather things will work on most devices (including those I have access too) making it very hard to work with those where it doesn't.
How large are the resultant video files? And how much free space is on your device?
