Press REAR VIDEO SIZE
Press RESOLUTION
make your selection from the options shown in the screen shot to the right that is taken from a Samsung S9 running Android 9.0
I get it but it would be nice if they would display a warning before you start recording. I just tried to record a show and left my phone unmanned on a tripod only to find out afterward that it stopped after 10 minutes. Had I known, I would have recorded it in 1080p and upscaled it later. Stupid Samsung!
Having problems with hyperlaps videos only. Cuts off the end of the videos every time. No specific length, some are long recordings some only 30 seconds. Just always cuts the end off. I've even tried letting the camera roll for a few extra seconds to counteract this but still doesn't help.
