download BlessN900 from the repos, this is the best in my opinion there is also FCam and Knips, i believe.

These only cover photos though

I agree with Raif. BlessN900 is awesome.

Also, overclocking makes a great difference to frame rate with video recording.

But OC'ing increases the risk of unrecoverable damaged to the hardware, don't forget that

That's why I only ever use it when I need it.

I run at stock 99% of the time and only increase to a maximum of 850MHz for:

> Video recording
> Games
> Wep Cracking

I remember this was marked as WONTFIX. Maybe fixed in Harmattan.

You know, people keep saying this, but there's yet to be a single failure from it... What people don't get is that the device scales the processor, so unlike PC overclocking, it's not running at the faster rate constantly. It's only using it when you're giving it more work than it can handle.

Even with that there are people that are playing PS emulators for hours on a regular basis that aren't burning out their devices. I think for something a simple as video compression (which is almost being handled at 600Mhz), this is a pretty save bet, unless you're trying to make a 24/7 streaming internet camera out of it.

@woody14619 never knew that...i thought it operated just like the PC when you overclock. not saying i'm goin to be overclocking like crazy but this is nice to know! =)

Even "newer" PC processors don't operate @ maximum frequency all the time: do you remember Intel Centrino processors? Nowadays almost every processor supports frequency scaling (some (all?) quad-core processors can also switch off unactive cores).

Plus its already under clocked anyway as far as I was aware.
