4K record on MX4 and Pro 5

If Flyme can do it, we should be able to do so too.

I think this might be because the video resolution is hardcoded at a maximum of 1920x1080 in http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~phablet-team/camera-app/trunk/view/head:/ViewFinderOverlay.qml#L101 .

So you think that solution would be only to change that line(s)? Can someone test that? How can I do it myself?

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Just a reminder how Ubuntu was advertising...

shame how marketing doesn't check with engineering first (:

well, some work will be involved to make this happen. it's not as simple as changing the string of supported resolutions. We need to check if
a) hw actually supports 4k resolution for video recording
b) expose that correctly to upper layers of stack
c) test performance of both recording and playback on this hardware to make sure it's acceptable
d) test stability

Marketing? One year ago end-users were able to buy a phone with our (mostly mine) Polish translations which I wasn't able to check first. I had to wait over a month after official release to be able to buy a phone to test translations and another two to correct the bugs. Marketing is the very last thing Canonical seems to care about. Until today as for me this system is in the alpha version and should be available only on self-flashed unlocked devices. I bought a phone one year ago and I can't use it as a phone because of some ridiculous bugs noone seems to care about.
Sorry for off topic hateing ;-)

Any progress? Is there anything that I can do to help with that case (testing, providing logs) ?

Affects the new Pro 5 similarly.

isn't there some risk of being culpable of "deceptive marketing" or other such legal issues with things like this? Would think that in such cases the priority should be "critical"...
