Hi,

Ok, I re-installed.
I switch on the camera in photo mode, all is well,
I switch to video mode and the preview freezes,
I press record and the preview becomes interference including the information along the bottom of the screen though there is a red dot in the top corner. 
When I press record again the red dot disappears but the screen remains covered with the diagonal pink and white lines
When I switch back to stills mode the preview appears again but it is frozen and needs a restart to recover.

None of this happens in the lua_lux experimental build but I can't find a setting for RAW recording in that build and it was RAW recording that which got me interested in ML in the first place.

Thank you Walter, I appreciate your time. 

Hi,

Would you mind guiding me through how to proceed to a version of ML that I can use please?  Now that I have tried the lua_fix experimental build and that allows a preview, is there something I could try on the 'EOS-M Zeek Settings [Danne Build FEB04]' or another build that might be happy on my EOS-M?

Also, my comment still says 'Awaiting Approval' but 13 people have read it?  Is there something that I need to do?

Many thanks!

Hi,

Ok, that was fairly straightforward.  I installed the build and my camera immediately produced a preview in Movie mode (thought the zebras confused me for a few seconds!) and I was able to record in whatever standard mode it was using.  I couldn't find any options in that experemental build for changing resolution or selecting RAW so I thought I would rush back here and report my findings!

Many thanks!

Thank you again!

The issue seems slightly different this morning possibly due to some tinkering (reset ML defaults and formatted the card in the camera leaving ML installed)

Stills mode is fine.  As soon as I switch to video mode the preview freezes on whatever was on the screen at the time.  When I press the record button, then is when the familiar pink diagonal 'interference' lines appear. 

Just thought I would post that update in case some of it sounded familiar.

I will try the lua_fix build as you described and report back, thank you again!

Thank you for your reply!

Funnily enough I discovered ML through Zeek's YT channel and have watched all of his videos, inspiring stuff!
I should probably have mentioned that the issue occurs on a fresh ML install with RAW switched off and (as far as I am aware!) no modules loaded.  I completely understand about the EOS-M not having been designed for it, to me that's what makes ML so amazing!  I am sure it is something I am doing wrong, I presume that my EOS-M is the same as everyone else's EOS-M but as far as I have seen nobody else seems to have had this issue.

Hi all, thanks for making and maintaining the coolest bit of software I have seen in a long long time!

I had a good look around on the web, I read through the sticky to end all stickies (but may have missed it) and I had a bit of a scan through the topics on this forum before finally deciding to sign up and ask.. 

I have an EOS-M, I have downloaded the 2018-07-02 build and onto firmware 2.0.2 I have installed ML and can access all the menus and settings.  The issue appears as soon as I switch to video mode.  The camera appears to be trying to render a preview but it comes out as a mess of diagonal coloured lines (currently fluorescent pink and white and like a horizontal hold fault on an old TV if that helps...) with the details along the bottom.  If I record video it does save it to the card and I can play it back but the live view is nothing short of psychodelic.

I have tried two different SD cards of different brands and sizes
I have tinkered with some settings but am not familiar enough with ML to do it in an educated way
I have removed and re-installed ML

I am sorry if this is posted somewhere else, I don't want to waste anyone's time but I am very keen to get to know ML!

Thank you.
