General Help Q&A / 5x record not working on 50D
January 01, 2021, 09:12:13 PM
Good afternoon

ML works fine for RAW recordings on my 50D in 1x mode.  When I switch to 5x the view switches to B&W (annoying but not a huge deal).
When in 5x and I hit record the recording starts - the little movie camera symbol is red though - it records only 8 seconds of video and then stops with the error 'Frame skipped. Stopping"
The 5x view is now color - but I still cannot record other than the first 8 seconds.
I have looked at the 8 second videos - they do seem to record in color.

FYI - my memory card is a 128Gb Lexar Professional (rated for 160 Mb/sec 1066x  UDMA 7)
Anybody else have this error or know how to fix it?

Also - any suggestions on free software to convert from the MLV Raw videos to SER format?

Thanks in advance

General Help Q&A / How do I record 5x view on a 50D
December 18, 2020, 08:53:27 PM
Good afternoon
Newbie with ML - installed on my 50D and I can record video successfully.
In M mode I can hit the zoom button to get the Live View at 5x (or 10x) but when I start the recording it switches back to 1x.
Before I tried ML I would hook the camera up to a laptop which would allow recording of zoomed in Live View - - but I can't seem to do it in ML.

FYI - I am trying to video Jupiter through a telescope using the 50D while zoomed to 5x

Any help appreciated
