Title: Canon 7D Does ML remove the 24' video recording limit ?

Hi there,

This Magic Lantern looks really ... magic. Great job!
I wonder if it enables to shoot more than 24'/Gb of video, which is the limit I hit on my Canon 7D with 16GB 400x UDMA CF ?

Thanks for your insights.
Cheers

Canon rules for 7D: Stop after 29:59 or if recording hits 4 GB file size. Whatever comes first.

ML is able to restart recording. Therefore no continuous recording because some frames are lost (about half a second).

Using MLV/RAW recording you get continuous recording with data streams up to around 80 MByte/s. If card is fast enough, of course.
