[If your buffer fills up you'll get pink frames. To avoid it, set the resoltuion in the Canon menu to 640p @ 30 fps]

Alright I found where I got the 720p thing.

If your buffer fills up you'll get pink frames. To avoid it, set the resoltuion in the Canon menu to 640p @ 30 fps (Lower YUV buffer = more space for other stuff) and use 'FPS Override' to lower the framerate. Also, make sure you have a fast SD-Card that reaches the 600D's 21 Megabyte/s write speed limit and set the 'Pic Quality' to 'SRAW' (And reboot your camera!) to increase the shoot_malloc buffer size. That should help to get rid of any pink frames. If they still appear you can try to use an older build.

By following these steps I haven't got any pink frames since weeks.

I probably read this post or something similar to this but the idea was the same probably. To empty the buffer of the camera.

But this post is from 2013, so I guess this new crop_rec build don't require 720p/640p  in Canon menu anymore.

However,

I just realized I do get pink frames every once in a while in my footage. Yesterday they weren't there, I must have broken something.

After 8 years, again I find myself in the ML rabbit hole.

Edit: I had a good footage without any problems (no pinks, no frame skips) with 640/30-canon settings and 1080p 30/46/38 @ 38fps ML setting. However, I disabled the fps override setting when I was recording this. Maybe It was ruining my earlier footage.

Is your fps set to 24, 25 or 30 fps in canon menu?

In canon menu? As far as I see there are only 4 choices there, 1920/25, 1920/24, 1280/50 and 640/25. I don't see 30fps there.

I read somewhere that I should be using 720p mode when I shoot raw with ML, so I left it at 1280/50.

Am I doing it wrong?

Edit: I see that Video Setting is set to "PAL". Maybe this is the reason?
Edit2: I set it to NTSC and now I can see 1280/60fps setting and 1920/30fps setting. Which one should I choose? 1280/60?
Edit3: I went ahead and tried 1280/60, didn't work. Tried 1920/30 and now LV works with the base 1080p raw mode. Thanks for the help! I wouldn't have done it without your help. I mean I couldn't even remember what the hell PAL & NTSC was...
Edit4: Big question now is, should I be using 1920/30 in canon menu? Where did I read that I should be using 720p... Maybe that was the setting for the vanilla ML, not for this crop_rec build.

I also see that using a speedbooster on EOS-M makes 5D MarkII almost... unnecessary? Maybe I buy both 5DMkII as a backup and a speedbooster because why not. Haha. I always wanted to shoot with a FF camera but back in the day MkII and MkIII was so damn expensive. I can finally have one but now EOS-M already delivers what MkII does. Daym.

I am speechless.

Hello everybody,

I am back after a very long break (my last post was in 2014 lol) with the cameras. I just wanted be a camera man once again and found my EOS-M in the junkyard side of my room.

I am really amazed that so many great stuff happened to the EOS-M/Magic Lantern since I left. Holy damn this cheap thing used to be considered junk now records 2.5k raw and rivals 5D MII/MIII, Black Magic etc...

I immediately wanted to try everything ML offers nowadays but then I realized that my 32gb Sandisk Extreme Pro from 2014 isn't that great anymore as It was impossible to overclock it above 160MHz (I got 66mb/s or 64mb/s in photo mode 160MHz If I remember right but 20mb/s on higher settings.) so I bought this card (samsung 256gb micro sd w:130mb/s) recently and I just benchmarked it on my EOS M in photo/playmode (240MHz) and It gave me 94mb/s. (77mb/s in192MHz)



How amazing is this now?



//

I am kind of confused with the 1080 raw mode though because no matter which card I use, I get crap pink stuff in my LCD view. Is this normal? Because this makes it impossible to focus.



Live View works fine with the 2.5k 1:1 centered (frtp too) preset btw. Is this normal?

Even If I can't make 1080p work, I am still going to be happy with the 2.5k raw I guess as it seems to me it is the most useful mode of this camera. (It is Zeek's favorite mode too)

Edit: 1080p 30/46/38 fps preset works with LV without a problem too. (and appears to have less crop than the 2.5k mode, maybe this preset is going to fit me better)

You are fast! Thanks!

and i can't believe nobody has  talked about this until now.

is there another way to go in ML menu without activating my touch shutter?

it is so annoying i can't use my touch shutter with ML. when i try to tap with my 2 fingers %95 it thinks that i used the touch shutter.

there is no difference. they are same camera.

buy the cheaper one. either of them is capable of recording 720p raw videos.

i got 650d and i can record 1600x600 raw videos without any problems.

Awesome.

Very nice.

For me The main difference is;

i can record 720p clips continiously using Raw with my 650d,

but i can not do that using Mlv.

Thanks you !

The videos have been shot in RAW 1536*654 @24fps, which let me about 16 sec max per clips with my SanDisk Extreme 45MB/s.
I haven't changed the frame-rate at editing, so the motion speed is the real one.

Which lens do you use? And do you use Polarizer? (probably yes)

the audio function will be available soon?

Soon.™

...

thank you guys i fiind the solution must turn off dual ISO

turning Dual iso "off" is a solution for "error ISOless PH err(2)"  indeed.

now, i have one (1) question:

how can i use dual iso while it is turned off?

Restarting the camera 10 times isn't a solution. (Despite the fact that I restarted my camera for like 20 times but the error was still there... ). And everything is the same when you boot up the camera, restart 10 times or 100 times. It must be something else that has fixed the issue for you..

nope. sometimes i got clean boot after 10restart, sometimes 20. but in the end i always find errorless start. but i dont know why it is happening. i also deleted the files inside settings folder of ML and cleared my cameras ML settings, that didnt work too.

it goes away only if i got a lucky start.

I just cleared all my camera settings and it got fixed. However I haven't identified the main cause of the problem so far.

i found a temporary solution for that problem. i just reboot my camera like 10times and 1/10 i got a clean boot with no errors while dual iso is active. but it is annoying as hell. i beg for a permanent solution. please.

ISOless PH err(2)

i got this error after i turn dual iso "on"

what does it mean? cant make dual iso work...

anyone having / had same issue?

edit: found it, using raw + jpeg mode solves it... i ve been using only raw mode.

edit2: it came again. damnit

ISOless PH err(2)

i got this error after i turn dual iso "on"

what does it mean? cant make dual iso work...

Hello dual iso!

can someone please explain "dual iso"? sounds like something superior to which those dont own it.

In T4i to record video in 720p (1280x720), what do you need? What SD card should I use?

this ---->>> http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/824140-REG/SanDisk_SDSDXPA_032G_A75_Extreme_Pro_32_GB.html

650D is the best one among those you suggested. (for now)

But there is no visible quality loss.
Also I would never upload uncompressed Video too.

well, i thought if  i upload the bigger and the better video, youtube would give me the better streaming video. that's why i upped non-compressed. i guess it is wrong.

i shot another raw video. dealing with raw files is a pain i'm sayin you. this 73second non-compressed avi file's size was 13.7gb. uploading this to youtube took more than 24hours (shitty 1mb uploadspeed)

i still use ML build of 20.07.13 and haven't upgraded the camera's firmware. and probably i won't bother to do it unless some big change come up.

what i did:

1) i used raw2dng first to get dng files.
2) used pink remover tool to clear em.
3) opened dng's with PS6 and did some adjustment
4) extracted jpg files (which is downed to 8bit)
5) renamed the jpgs' with "bulk rename utility" (google it)
6) files are joined and mp3 added to auido with virtualdub. now i got a 1600x600 non-comp avi. sized almost 5gb.
7) avi file impoted  into after effects.
file interpolated to 1920x1080 (1920x720 actually)
9) extracted again non-comp avi. 13.7gb - ~195mb/s bitrate

even this 70second small footage took enormous time and computing power. so i think most of the time i ll stick with 1080p h264.

this is almost the same scene with h264 canon mode:

footage itself is a bit shaky thx to 50mm non-is lens. and youtube downgraded the quality of 15gb video to a 46mb one. (that's right)  enjoi.

I still have older version of 650d firmware and I haven't installed ML yet. So is there any chance to rip the firmware and upload it to the forum? If the answer is yes, I'm ready to help you guys.

it's up already. >>>page number: 1
edit: my bad, i thought you re asking for ML to download.

It says to simply format the card on that link.  I did, and now the camera says update file cannot be found.

Run EOScard.exe. Uncheck ML, CHDKraw, eos_develop, bootdisk then click save. Search the forums to find the exe.

Guys, can we use 650d's hdmi port to record better videos directly into the computer? Anyone working on this? Tried it?

I just read this: http://www.hireacamera.com/blog/index.asp?post=canon-eos-650d--hdmi-explained

And i think ML devs can do something about it. (i don't know if it is possible to record raw via hdmi already)
