Why Does Live Record Take/consumed More Gig ? by sicily4u: 9:34pm On Nov 05, 2017
Experts in the house, why does live record from phone consumed more space of gig than ordinary downloaded video/movies,
For instance a 1hr live record can take up to 10gig while YouTube or ordinary downloaded movies of 5hrs can only take about 1.5 or 2gig

Depends on the phone you are recording with. A phone recording at FHD (1080P) will consume A lot of space while HD (720P) will consume lesser. Now if you download say a 1hr vid of 720P it may be 800mb considering the audio it's dubbed with cos after recording the audio files which the movie was recorded in are changed to reduce size. Most come with heavy stereo audio file like aac or 480kbps mp3 which has to be changed to maybe 128kbps mp3 or 96 to save size or compressing the aac audio. So your 720p downloaded video is already lesser compared to its real raw format that would originally be 1gb upwards.
All I am trying to say is downloaded videos have been compressed from their raw size while your recorded video is still raw hence the huge size.

Quality is different. When you play your FHD or HD recording on your pc you will see the difference. Their audio would most likely be same but video quality is totally different.

[quote author=sicily4u post=62112700][/quote]Should depend on the display resolution of your phone. Its pointless playing a FHD recording on a 720p screen as the maximum output is HD. But you'll notice the difference when you move to say a larger display with FHD resolution.

No idea but prepare for a 4k price tag. Also see if you can further reduce your video quality.
