Title:
  480p and 1080p video appear to use the same bitrate

Status in Canonical System Image:
  In Progress
Status in camera-app package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  I just recorded two 10 second videos of the the same object using my
  Nexus 4, one using the 1080p setting and the other 480p.  Both videos
  came out at roughly 8MB, each with approximately a 6.3 Mb/s video bit
  rate and 96 kb/s audio bit rate.

  This seems a bit weird to me: the only reason I can think of to offer
  multiple resolutions is to let the user pick the quality / storage
  space trade off they want.  If the lower resolution videos take up
  just as much space as the high resolution ones, then this doesn't make
  sense.

  I am running build 143 on a Nexus 4, which looks to have camera-app
  3.0.0.516 installed:

      current build number: 143
      device name: mako
      channel: ubuntu-touch/devel-proposed
      alias: ubuntu-touch/vivid-proposed
      last update: 2015-03-20 07:05:06
      version version: 143
      version ubuntu: 20150320
      version device: 20150210
      version custom: 20150320
