Hi all,

Thanks again so much for all the work on ML! It's really great! I'm planning on doing some work with hdmi out on my EOS-M, and since I'm doing some overlays live, it would be really useful if there was an option to select where the black bars go (I would like them only on one side). I'm thinking an option where for hdmi out you could select the image to be 1) center, 2) left, 3) right. Thanks for your consideration!

Thanks so much for the reply! I saw how to turn off displays, which got me excited! Thanks for the tips!!

This is a bit random, but would it be difficult to put all the black bars on the left or right? Maybe an option for image a) center, b) left, c) right? Normally I could just do it in post, but I'm trying to do some things live with the stream and don't think I can easily move the image.

Thanks!

Hi all!

Thanks for all the work on ML, I love it so far! I've been reading on HDMI out. I don't have a way to record HDMI and am considering buying ablackmagic  decklink mini recorder to do so. So, how does the quality of HDMI out stack up to regular avchd at 1080p30? I know it has black bars on sides, but that could be livable for me if quality otherwise is good. Also, my TV says the HDMI is 1080i, but I don't know if that means 1080i60 or 1080i30 or something else? Thanks so much, and sorry if I somehow missed that info!

Another question, this time about using a DSLR controller over USB such as the one at dslrcontroller.com. It lists a bunch of newer cameras as compatible, but the EOS M as not compatible. Does anyone know if this is a firmware issue? Would there be any chance that ML would fix this? Thanks!

That makes sense and I'm glad to hear you can get clean hdmi out with this camera. I don't need to record too long, only 60 minutes. Maybe they left in the 30 min limit due to overheating concerns? In any case, getting rid of the limit would be super nice for me, so if anyone has more info and there is a possibility of the limit being removed again, that would be great.

I use ML to record long periods but via the HDMI output.. ML gives me a clean output and stay on forever, then I use a HDMI recorder with a Hard Drive.. (currently Atomos Ninja) to record 7-8 hour events..  It effective but more parts and cost than a single device.

Its a little weird that ML took off the ability to record longer than 30 minutes direct to card. There has to be an untold reason.. (Although this still wouldn't work for me as SD card sizes would be far too limiting for multi hour events)

Hello all,

I'm completely new to ML and was thinking of getting a EOS M camera. The main thing I want it for is to shoot 1080p video with an external mic. The only feature I need that is different than the stock firmware is to get rid of the 29 minute recording limit (I need to record around 1 hr). Would ML get rid of this? Is it pretty stable for the EOS M? Thanks so much!
