I just got a remote control for the M. It's the RC-6 model from a third party. It works good at even 16 feet away for taking pics, BUT, I can't get it to start and atop the movie mode for videos. I have read in forums that it does also work for video,even the third party models, but I cannot see how. It always takes a pic in movie mode and a message pops up saying "switch to movie mode, something went wrong". But, it then starts recording video. Odd. BUT, I then cannot get the remote to stop the movie recording. It just keeps taking pics with each push of the button on the remote.
Is this something Magic Lantern can do to make it work for video start and stop without taking pics? Or, is there something I am doing wrong? I am setting the Self-Timer: 1o secs/remote to get the remote to work. I see no other way to do this for video start/stop.

If you read the manual, you will see if you set the remote to "2", and set the self-timer on the camera to remote (as you did), and set the camera to video, the remote will start and stop video instantly when you press the remote button. This has absolutely nothing to do with ML.
