The xml must be used with my lib (link below):

The text of that link is OK, but the link is to telegram
This is to v5 of your lib file

I don't know why. I copied the link from Google Disk.

I'm really satisfied with 8.4LMC15+lib. and Ofilm combi.
Colors, brightness and sharpness of pictures are good for me.

But still I have problem with video.
This time video does crash the camera only with 1/8 slowmo, which was a problem in the past with all video modes for me. Every other camera app stay black then. The only solution is a restart of the phone. (FYI: I have this problem with all 8.4 Gcam builds)

I tried 8.7MGC+lib+conf. too, but all video modes do crash the camera.

With 8.1MGC-intro555 Ofilm combi I never have this and can use all video modes.
So must conclude that this Gcam is still the most stable build for my use.

1/8 didn't work in case of hardware, my opinion

 

[joaogordo96]

quick comparison

Only 8.4 and 8.7 in that case.
8.1 works without any issue.

Ohhhh, then could you please check the settings for 1/8 in 8.1 and try to adjust in 8.4 or post?

Do u have a link for this kind of combination? Like to test it out, dont need slowmo.

Xml update for LMC R15

Cant remember changelogs from previous xml (perfect shot final xml)but fixed some issues in Cct and many other changes

Sunny Lense AWB

Do you think we can achieve the same level of detail from this config if we use Spatial Bayer instead?

 

[Elinx]

Do u have a link for this kind of combination?...

The latest lib from @antykat and LMC15 apk you find here
The config for Sunny or Ofilm lens from @Darkxstaar you find there

I can't see any different video settings in quick menu.
I can't find specific 1/8 settings, but I must say I never have searched or changed specific settings, besides the quick menu. I have always used the gcam+config versions as they are.
Can you hint what I search for?

edit:
I found 1/4 and 1/8 setting in MGC8.1 under "Video" "Stream Configs Slow-mo" "camcorderprofile", but can't find the same settings in LMC8.4

Thanks alot. I found something im very happy with meanwhile on the very first testing around, at very shady light...

https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/configs-bigkaka-01/ + Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 Pro Max Config, and its simply:

Dont want to be rude, but im new into GCam as i bought first Snapdragon CPU Phone ever, if your Config/Mods can beat this, let me know please. Im still at learning by doing.

Edit; The other Config there for that mod is decent too, if not a bit better then that "fix-v2...".

Using a lib with xml that was created separately, independently from this lib doesn't make sense. Modifying a lib with libpatcher to get specific, wanted results makes sense. Now, settings of libpatcher and the lib don't correspond to each other. They are random. So, my advice is: use xml that was created for a lib that you want to use, use xml that doesn't require a lib or create xml for a lib that you want to use. Don't connect a xml and a lib that where created independently, because the results will be hardly ever good.

I had the impression that Darkxstaar's xml config was based on that particular configuration.
If not, then this wasn't clear for me.

 

[Darkxstaar]

Most XMLs and libs are fine when it comes to most lighting conditions but most turn ugly once you try shooting in scenes with difficult lighting like having multiple bright objects in the frame or against the light situations. Is this because of the sensor of our phone?

Look at these samples I've taken. The issue I'm talking about is more apparent during daylight so I'll post more once I've got better samples.

I already tried to fix this issue but eventually it affects other conditions as well, i always try to shoot at windows from indoor and i get greeny edges, there is one config which i currently using as daily driver it almost fixed that problem but im not sure that most people here like that kind of sharpness in there pictures,will share it some time later

1/8 Slomo works for me(stock Rom) on lmc. didn't tried to fix it in bsg 8.7 , only worked on video section for stabilization,

No its not, both are totally different, if you use my xml with Lib then almost all settings will be as same as my xml, the Lib will only affect those values which are as in library in my xml and antykat tweaked those in his Lib ( maybe some exposure and light and shadow also color settings) just tweak those settings to get same results as antykat, @Laptapper already shared a xml with those tweak you can compare the results.

 

[Darkxstaar]

No results will be different and not same results as sabre merge, you need to tweak it from scratch to get same results with spatial bayer

Try my XML. I found that the combination of Lut Noise Fix (4.0), enabled camera.shasta_zsl from the Developer settings, and Spatial Bayer gets rid of the green or pink tinting and the noise that you get when shooting in scenes that are against the light or have high dynamic range. But now you have a new problem. Some parts of the scene get duplicated as if gcam used photoshop's healing brush on it.
