Raw Video / Re: 5D3: 1.1.3 vs 1.2.3 Slow Mo Record Times
September 29, 2014, 06:20:51 PM
i also find that version 1.1.3 is faster... i am still using nightly from 10th august. Still the fastest for me with no bugs at all.  :o

nice video.. and about the res and frame rate you shot ? 1920x540 ? 60 fps ?  cheers
#3
on my 5d mark 3 every build i tested after 08//03 i get green footage problem... both modules raw_rec and mlv_rec. Raw_rec 1x normal but green at 3x mode... mlv_rec with black fix ON i get pink footage at 1x mode, turning it off footage comes out normal but at 3x mode with black fix on i get pink footage and black fix off green footage..... so talking about filming using RAW_REC and MLV_REC i would stick with build 08/03. ;)

Did you have memory hack on? Can you check if turning it off helps?

(this one changes video modes right before recording, so it may need a larger delay to settle)

i also had memory hack ON all time... and i was getting the green tint on both modes

| raw_rec 1x green 3x green | mlv_rec 1x normal 3x green |

i tested both 5dmark 3 firmware's same results. Turning it OFF solved the problem.

Tested again the 1.2.3 on my 5D3 and some of the MLV files had
a green tint and in addition some where very dark
(compared to other files with same EXPO.)
using rec raw it was ok.

im having same issue using mlv_rec recording at both modes 1x and 3x. Raw_rec i get the same error only in 3x mode. 1x is fine.

One thing i can say about MLV, the speed is going higherrrr....  :D i got about 108mb/s using mlv and crop mode.

nice work

Noix222 if there arent any changes in the module there Will be no changes in speed. Check the changelog or set to see if there are changes in mlv_rec before comparing nightlies.

yes your right.. i do that actually.. i've seen a few mlv cleanups and etc from g3gg0 in the changelog a day before or so and because i haven't tested for about 2 or 3 days.... i thought it could have changed something. Just posting reports after 2 or 3 builds and only if there's g3gg0 or a1ex changes..

im still testing new builds (magiclantern-Nightly.2014Mar15.5D3113) on my 5d mk 3... the speed at 3x mode is amazing it holds 103mb/s and i can continuous record 1920x1080 30fps... but again recording at 1x mode the speed drops to 97mb/s... and stops just after 25 seconds.

just did a few tests with new build magiclantern-v2.3.NEXT.2014Mar10.5D3113 on my mark3 again shooting 30fps 1920x1080.

Im trying to get continuous 30fps 1920x1080 with mlv_rec. Today was weird it got straight 90mb/s from CF for a few seconds and soon the SD kicked in it pumped to 107mb/s continuous 30fps 1920x1080 recording in 1x mode ... booom . But that lasted just for a few more seconds when the speed dropped really quick and went back to same 98mb/s average witch is 80-81mb/s out of CF and 17mb/s on the SD. So at the end i was able to get nothing more than 30 seconds recording. I did more tests, same thing, the speed can go higher sometimes, but it is constant only around 97-98mb/s (80mb/s out of CF - 17mb/s out of SD) which doesn't really holds recording more than 30 seconds... i also tested record 3x mode.. still working pretty good it doesn't show continuous but i stopped recording after 1min.. and i could go more if i wanted too.   i guess it just needs to stabilize it in 1x mode . i wish i could help.

thanks.

great app!!! really liked... its possible to export more than one file at one time to prores?

hello guys... just tested again same settings 1920x1080 30fps with a 5dmark3 using build magiclantern-v2.3.NEXT.2014Mar08.5D3113

Again at 1x mode CF buffer dropped a lot staying on a average of 78-75mb/s.. sometimes lower out of CF and a constant 17mb/s from SD. But at 3x mode i was able to continuous record 30fps on average buffer 102-103mb/s total, with around 85mb/s out of CF and 17mb/s out of SD. SD speeds its constant recording on both modes.

the workflow is pretty easy and i had no errors on my footage converting mlv files using MLVMystic http://secondsparkproductions.com/index.php/blog/8-mlv-mystic-mlv-raw-to-dng-batch-converter

i also tested and really liked MlRawViewer http://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=9560.msg91165#msg91165 it previews the file and you can easily export a ProRes422 (HQ) just pressing a rec button.

i wish i could help on anything more than just testing but i have no idea how to deal with all this codes..... ! but thanks everyone involved.....

using raw_rec the difference on buffer is lower i get constant 99mb/s  1x mode and a max of 101mb/s on 3x mode.

What settings did you use with 1080p 30fps in 3xzoom Noix222?

i wrote my tests on page 61 with builds magiclantern-v2.3.NEXT.2014Feb26.5D3113 & magiclantern-v2.3.NEXT.2014Mar02.5D3113 - got better results with the second.

5d mark 3 WITH a CF Komputerbay 64gb 1000x and SD Sandisk Extreme 45mb/s.

MLV_REC settings: status recording Debug _ memory hack ON _ extra hacks ON
                             buffer fill method 4 _ cf-only buffers 3 _ card spanning ON _ reserve card space ON

@all:
sorry for the delays, quite busy with job and family atm :)
maybe you can draw a conclusion - as far i understand some modes suffer from the last changes and some others are much more stable now.
is that correct?


Testing new builds its evident that the speed is improving... the only strange thing to me still is that the speed recording in 1x is not as stable recording in 5x... as i said befor i am able to record full hd 30fps continuous in 5x mode, but i cant do in 1x mode... the buffer goes from around 103mb/s in 5x compared to max 98mb/s in 1x mode.

thanks guys

TESTING TODAY BUILD magiclantern-v2.3.NEXT.2014Mar02.5D3113

5d mark 3 - ALL TESTS DONE in 30fps WITH a CF Komputerbay 64gb 1000x and SD Sandisk Extreme 45mb/s.

MLV_REC settings: status recording Debug _ memory hack ON _ extra hacks ON
                             buffer fill method 4 _ cf-only buffers 3 _ card spanning ON _ reserve card space ON

Good news i was able to continuous record 1920x1080 30fps in 5x mode... the weird stuff is that in 1x mode the buffer performance changes a lot.. it goes down to 98mb/s max...when in 5x mode it goes around 102-103mb/s... don't know why but i guess it's close... thanks guys

TESTING build magiclantern-v2.3.NEXT.2014Feb26.5D3113.

5d mark 3 - ALL TESTS DONE in 30fps WITH a CF Komputerbay 64gb 1000x and SD Sandisk Extreme 45mb/s.

MLV_REC settings: status recording Debug _ memory hack ON _ extra hacks ON
                             buffer fill method 4 _ cf-only buffers 3 _ card spanning ON _ reserve card space ON

             30fps    1920x1080    16:9

      1x mode_ recorded 30 sec. _ MAX rate 99.3mb/s _ CF +- 80mb/s _ SD always on 17mb/s
      5x mode_ recorded 50 sec. it always skipped a frame on 50 sec and stopped _ MAX rate 101.5mb/s _ CF +- 87mb/s _ SD always on 17mb/s

             30fps    1920x1038    1:85.1

      1x mode_ recorded 50 sec. it always skipped a frame on 50 sec and stopped _ MAX rate 98mb/s _ CF +- 80mb/s _ SD always on 17mb/s
      5x mode_ recorded continuous _ MAX rate 101mb/s _ CF +- 87mb/s _ SD always on 17mb/s

So besides CF been inconstant the only problem i can report is this 50sec stop in both resolutions.. they're kind at the same time and both stops even though little icon is green showing continuous recording... it doesn't show "its a bug report" it only skip a frame and stop...

RAW_REC settings: memory hack ON _ small hacks ON

              30fps    1920x1080     16:9

      1x mode_ recorded 40 sec. _ MAX rate 99.3mb/s
      5x mode_ recorded 1min. _ MAX rate 101mb/s

              30fps    1920x1038     1:85.1

       1x mode_ recorded continuous. _ MAX rate 99.6mb/s
       5x mode_ recorded continuous. _ MAX rate 101mb/s


So it's clearly that the buffer works a bit faster recording in 5x mode. Running with both modules raw_rec & mlv_rec...
CF buffer needs to be a bit more constant in MLV_REC to be able to record continuous 1920x1080 30fps in both modes 1x and 5x...

I also processed a lot of the images i tested today from both modes mlv and raw... could not find any error or pink frame... it's all good to me !

thanks for the work guys amazing.

-- g3gg0 any advice on buffer config? thanks

Card spanning is working :) 1920x1038 30fps is shooting continuous
Settings: status when recording NONE/Memory Hack ON/Extra hack ON/Buffer Fill 3/CF only 1
Thnx g3gg0!

Lexar 32GB 1000x and Sandisk Extreme 45MB/s. I also perform card warmup btw. the resolution is  1920x1038 not 1080p.
Try recording with both hacks and no buffer or debug status. it is faster.

I did some testing today on a 5Dmk3 using those settings. I am running on a Komputerbay 64gb 1000x and Sandisk Extreme 16gb 45mb/s but i can't get continuous 1920x1038 30fps using mlv_rec.. even though using raw_rec i get continuous 1920x1038 30fps with buffer on 99.6mb/s ... using mlv debug it shows a constant 17MB out of SD but a variable bit rate from CF, higher in the beginning, from 90mb/s to 60mb/s.... sometimes lower.... recording around 30 to 40 sec.

Can someone paste the link to download the software?
Any news about sound?

If not a can't see any advantage to work with MLV.

Noix222  I'm using a Hoodman Steel 32gb card UDMA 7 1000x card     And it recorded a full minute 4gb MLV file.. and could have kept going,..not sure how long, but I'm assuming the same as the raw.

30fps ? using MLV im far from it.. it needs 103MB/s to record continuous 30fps 1920x1080 according to ML menu... i get total rate of 53mb/s using mlv_rec with fps override off, both hacks on, buffer method 4, cf 3, spanning mode on, .. don't really know whats up with spanning here my cards (komputerbay 64gb 1000x) SD sandisk extreme pro 32gb - ML installed) using same card but raw_rec i can get 98to100mb/s with no problem almost continuous ... but gives me about a minute recording +- 1500 frames...
#20
yes i got it now... so it shows total rate and goes just around 53mb/s :(

tested out mlv_snd works pretty good.. :D
#21
could not find that debug window :( where?
#22
i just did it now.. tried also using TEST MODE and the best number of 52mb/s came out of buffer method 3 cf only 3 spanning ON... so no changes... when i go back to ml menu the total speed with mlv_rec shows 49MB/s. raw_rec goes on 100mb with no prob .

i just saw that i don't have this modules in my folder: ime_base.mo, ime_rot.mo, smpte.mo, trace.mo

that will change something?
#23
i did... tried even formatting ExFat, both types of formatting gave me same results... the strange thing is using raw_rec i get 100MB from the CF... but using mlv_rec it goes just around 60mb.... giving CF+SD 80mb. filming in 30fps... are you getting any better of MLV with todays build??  at some point i got continuous 30fps using mlv with card spanning... the thing is i cant find that build anymore i mixed up the folders where i save magic lantern builds.

but no pink frames at all !!!  :D
#24
testing today MLV magiclantern-v2.3.NEXT.2014Feb15.5D3113 shooting 30fps mlv_rec .. card spanning ON both hacks ON all rest left as it comes... i barely got 20second of footage.. i don't know why it can't hold 100MB with the CF + 20M of SD... it is giving me just 60mb - 50mb in CF and 18mb in SD. IM using a komputerbay 1000x card it holds up to 100MB with raw_rec... if mlv works we will get easily 30fps fullhd and 2k.. Also when i import DNG's converted in mlv_dump they come all green (easily fixed by adjusting white balance)... thanks guys...
#25
i did a lot of testing.... MLV is not sustaining high bit rate anymore... don't know why. I have all set properly but i cant get 30fps continuous.... :( ---- i have a komputerbay 1000x 64gb. Using RAW_REC it stays around 99MB all time nothing more... using MLV the SD gets 18.2mb all time but CF stays around 50MB 60MB nothing more.. any idea?

thanks guys!!!


BUILD magiclantern-v2.3.NEXT.2014Feb13.5D3113

also in 5x mode it gains a little bit more speed using RAW_REC goes from 98MB to 101MB...
