video recording volume level drops

Hello All,


I attended some events, shows recently where I recorded a few videos with my iPhone XS Max. Using 1080p 60fps and stereo recording settings. All on my videos I noticed some changes in the volume during playback. It is like the volume changed, adjusted automatically during video recording. Sometimes the volume is higher then sometimes it is lowered down without my manual intervention. I’m sure the microphone is not covered by my hand or fingers, also the case cannot be the problem.

What I noticed that this volume change happens usually when for example an act is ending, so the volume/sound lowered in the live event, but the recorded sound gets higher during the playback for the same, also when the event is got louder, on the playback the volume is softer. Is this something intentionally applied to iphones? It is kinda bothering that I cannot watch my video on the same volume level. Unfortunately these sound drops are very noticeable for me.


Here is a video for your reference.

Sound on same level until .27

sound gets louder .27 and stays on that level until .40

sound lowered from .40


Any help would be appreciated on this. Anyone experienced the same or similar? Many thanks

Bence

Please check: Change with buttons os in OFF position. Probable while recording the volume button is getting accidentally pressed


Microphone Volume Options


  1. Tap "Settings" and "Sounds" on your iPhone.
  2. Slide the "Change With Buttons" slider to the "OFF" position.
  3. Press the "+" button on the side of the iPhone to increase the overall system volume. Press the "-" button to lower the volume. This affects the volume of the microphone as well.
