Title: Screenshots with ML overlay
Post by: Malcolm Debono on February 06, 2013, 04:38:07 PM
I am trying to take a couple of screenshots showing ML menus or ML overlays in live view, however so far all my screenshots do not show these GUI elements and only show the picture when converted from 422 to jpeg. Am I doing something wrong and/or is there any way to take screenshots of these?

There should be a BMP and a 422 file, both with the same name. BMP contains the menus, 422 contains the liveview image.

Strange. I only got the 422 files in my card and a file called TEST.BMP (cannot be opened though). The creation date & time match those of the last 422 file.

5D2? I've just tried and worked fine. Send me the BMP.

Go to Debug menu TAB, press Screenshot, and you have 10 sec to get whatever you want shown on the screen: 9..8..7.. click.

I tested on 5D3 and get VRAMx.422 but cannot open with 422-jpg-v2.exe  ??
