Ted,

I'm not advanced enough to say yes or no to the swap. I'd wait until one of the more knowledgable users posts in that regard.  However, in reference to the file size... I won't know for sure how well it performed until I get RAW2dng to work on my mac but I didn't have to use FPS override on it.  I monitored the fps during capture without a drop in frame rate.  I've found that turning off the camera and turning it back on right before recording helps clear the memory and allows for longer record times.  Disclaimer: I'm not an expert on the topic but theoretically the restart should clear the memory.

Ted,

In regard to your other question, try the May 14 build. If it doesn't work with the provided Autoexec.bin swap for the autoexec.bin in the link Coutts provided earlier.

Ted Ramasola,

Resolution:  1880x1080 at 23.976fps at 81.2 MB/s resulting in a 4.21GB file.

Squig,

I successfully captured a >4GB using a SanDisk Extreme Pro 90MB/s CF card in my ML Canon 5D Mark II.  Largest RAW Video File size as of now (that I've captured) is 4.21GB.

I'm converting it to DNG for edit/upload.

This should work for 5d2, double buffering enabled:

extract the MODULES directory into /ML/ on your card

Thank you Coutts! Confirmation that it worked!  I'm going to list a few keywords below to help any other ML users locate this post via search.

Noisyboy and EatsTooMuchJam,

Thank you for the reply!  The far right tab in my menu shows an "i" at the top... not an M :/

The menu choices are the same as are shown here: http://www.eoshd.com/content/10324/big-news-hands-on-with-continuous-raw-recording-on-canon-5d-mark-iii  but without the option for "RAW Video" of course.


Thanks again!

I know this is going to ruffle some feathers but I promise I'm not posting out of ignorance.  I've been using ML for over a year on my 5D2 and swear by it.  I've been keeping up with reading the forums and decided to try the nightly build to use RAW Video on my 5D2 but don't see the option after replacing the autoexec.bin and ML folder on the root of the card with the nightly build...  I'm using a Sandisk Extreme Pro 16GB CF 90MB/s... not the 1000x.  Is the card speed the reason or am I missing a step?


Thank you.

Phil
