Oh no doubt. I'm sure the improved 5 megapixel camera had ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO with the quality. I see by your sig that you didn't get an iphone 4
Ive used Pixelpipe on my Nokia handsets, and did some digging.

The above is a place holder, so Im guessing will be available soon. JB App? As in Jail Broken? No JB yet is there for the iPhone 4?

more thoughts on getting 720p off your iphone 4
Read this thread and have some responses to the things posted here:
- Pixelpipe was removed from the app store for not following the rules of API road. Check this: http://blog.pixelpipe.com/tag/iphone/
- I posted my attempts to get the 720p to YouTube and other services (Vimeo) here. -- http://www.donmartelli.com/blog/2010/6/25/dear-apple-i-want-my-iphone-4-720p.html
Basically, I've tried loading via MMS and email. I've tried to send to Vimeo and Posterous, with no luck. It always gets compressed. The only way that I can get my hands on the footage is if I download it with iPhoto, Lightroom or Aperture.
Other than that, I guess we have to wait for a third party to hook us up with an app. I might even email steve jobs to see what the deal is.

The only Answer I know of...
Hey gang.
I spent the better part of the last 2 days, trying to find an answer here. I even went to Apple Store and asked the guys there- they couldnt figure out why....Here's what you do...if you have a Mac...and the same programs....
You need to plug in iPhone 4 to your computer, then dowload into iPhoto first- as a movie...
THEN you need to export to iMovie
Then make a project and put that event into project
THEN you need to upload it to you YouTube. It will (finally) give you an option to upload in HD- any other way simply doesn't work, and I've tried ALL of the following options as well- without success..
Hope this helps...
Things that DIDNT work...(Apple if you are listening, your iMovie App does NOT convert it into 720)....

Tried emailing the HD video to myself then uploading it to YouTube manually- it didn't show up in HD
Tried uploading the HD video directly to Youtube via the iPhone4- didn't work
Downloaded video into iMovie, optimized, but it wouldn't let me upload HD into Youtube.
Even tried the iMovie app for the iPhone4, exporting it as an HD (720p) movie, putting in camera roll, THEN uploading to YouTube. Didn't work.
Waited a day to see if it was just a processing delay for YouTube- no luck
Tried doing all of these things in the Apple Store WITH two Apple guys r

I agree, it is utter crap that Apple advertises the ability to shoot HD video but the only way to actually get it to post as 720p online is through a method that is not explained at all.
They should at the very least allow an HD transfer to Youtube through WiFi, takes just as long on the computer

Are you sure? I didn't have to export it into my desktop iMovie. All I did was plugged my iPhone into my Mac, opened iPhoto exported the movie to my desktop, then uploaded the video from the YouTube website. No need for iMovie.
Yeah, you don't have to export it to iMovie or any other application. You just have to copy the file to your PC and then upload to YouTube, Facebook, or wherever else you want to put your HD content.
Anyone have any luck finding a way to upload 720p directly from iPhone 4 yet?
I don't know if you done it on purpose, but on your blog, you put your phone number.
IPHone to Computer without iphoto/image capture/itunes
Hi, all the forums I am seeing say to use Iphoto to transfer my videos. Maybe my version is to old (6.0.6). But when I am in Iphoto I still can't select the items I want to import. I only have the choice to update all from my phone and either delete after or not (I don't want to delete them all off my phone - and definitely not during import in case something doesn't go right).
But more importantly, It is only importing the videos that are 10 secs of less. Same with Image capture. And when I used Itunes to sync photos last night it deleted all of my apps from my phone (really did not make me happy).
Is there anyway I can view the contents of my phone in something like a finder window so that I can click and drag/drop my files to transfer them to folders of my choice.
