@Danne Can you tell me what is the sticky shutter setting? Is it on Canon Menu or ML (If it's on the canon, as I don't have an english version, I don't really see what is it about and I'm very interesting by the ability to run longer than 29:59 minutes in one peace).
Many thanks !

I forgot:
— MLV recording + HDMI Monitor + with Global Draw Off: no dropped frame for the moment.

I still have the 1.1.3 on my 5DMKIII and I hope it can help.
I did some tests with
— Lexar 64GB x1000 and SD 95MB/s card with ML firmware Nightly Builds 2014june26.5D113
— a Zacuto EVF HDMI monitor
— 25 fps 1920x1080
Result :
— MLV recording: no particular issues with Global Draw On (Focus peaking, Zebras, Cropmarks)
— MLV recording + HDMI Monitor + with Global Draw On: dropped frame (the more you put options on Global Draw, the more I have dropped frame).
No Raw test for the moment also because the Raw_rec module has disappeared in that builds.

And with that nightly builds I still have the same issue that I never had before when I fill the CF card. I have the same error message: "Recording stopped: Card/camera really exFat?" and on the CF card, the last MLV file is different from the others: example
M30-2048.MLV
M30-2049.MLV
And the last: M30-2050.MLV with a series of M30-2050.M00, .M01,....... M30-2050.M08 (52 bytes each).

@ budafilms: you mean check if 4GB ExFat is set on the ML menu (Raw menu) not Canon menu, don't you? In ML menu, if 4GB ExFat is OFF it doesn't work for me even without HDMI monitor. So I always use this option with my ExFat CF card. Does it ùake sense?

@ Midphase: You said: "About 2 weeks ago, we recorded with two external HDMI monitors connected (well...chained) and shot about 700Gb of footage without a single dropped frame or corrupted frame. The camera was incredibly stable, then again it's on 1.1.3 and not 1.2.3."
What nightly builds did you use or do you think there are special set up options that can help?

I have the same problem with my 5D mark III 1.1.3 with the latest nightly 2014 June 26 5D113. No skipping frame when I don't use the HDMI monitor but sometimes (hard to say when exactly) I have skipped frames when the HDMI Monitor is plugged. Is there any special set up to avoid this? (And I thought it could be worth with the 5D123 firmware that's why I didn't change the Canon firmware for the moment).

And I have another new issue: when I fill up the card (Lexar 64 Go x1000 exFat), I have a message saying: Recording stopped: Card/camera really exFat? On the older nightly builds I never had this message. Someone have an idea?

To g3gg0
I tested your last build, thank you for the new icon options in the LV (icon is great, just like the Raw_Rec option)!

And as I said in another thread:
I tested this :
1— MLVBrowseSharp / DNG+Wav
2— MLVBrowseSharp / RAW+Wav / + RAWMagic / DNG (=CDNG)

There is a small difference between both (at 200%!):
1— DNG are a bit more grainy but more regular in the low-mid-high value. (It works with ACR. Unusable with Resolve 9, maybe it is on 10, I have to try and I also have to test on Premiere CC with DrasticPreview as it seems to work)
2— DNG (=CDNG) are less clean in the low area (more weird colors in the black). The grain is less visible in the mid-high area. (Usable on both ACR and Resolve 9)

It would be more simple if the RAWMagic App could include the MLV files and not only Raw (for a CDNG option) because, even if MLVBroweSharp is a great App, I noticed the RAWMagic is really faster.
Do you think it's possible ?

One more thing:
It could be great if the GB (CF card) information on the top right of the LV would be update each time the record is off or even better in real time. It only updates when one switch off then turn on the camera.
Thanks for all.
#10
I got it: in Raw MLV_rec, the option Files>4GiB (exFat) needs to be turned ON if one wants to use the HDMI output with higher than 4.29 GB recording otherwise it doesn't work.
#11
I just noticed it only happens when I use the HDMI output (to an EVF Zacuto)
To resume: with MLV_Rec (+MLV_Snd) it automatically stops at about 4.29  (a little bit more, just the time to create a new MLV_01) when I use HDMI Output.
#12
Hi there,

I'm using the last build (05feb) with 5D MKIII Lexar x1000 64GB. With raw_rec I can have a file higher than 4.29 GB but I can't do the same with the MLV_Rec (1980x1200, 25 fps, GD allow, extra hack on). It stops automatically after about 1200 frame. Can someone tell me what's wrong?
#13
To Budafilms:
I'm using the g3gg0 build (mlv_rec) from the Jan 10th 2014 (my birthday... nice gift g3gg0 and thanks again!!!)
I tried to put the mlv_snd.mo in the "classical" module folder (with raw_rec.mo, Arkanoid....) but it crashed (as Danne said)
So, my module folder has exactly (no raw_rec included):
5D3_113.sym
autoexpo.mo
dot_tune.mo
file_man.mo
mlv_play.mo
mlv_rec.mo
mlv_snd.mo
pic_view.mo
silent.mo
smpte.mo
trace.mo

To (amazing) developers:
I hope you won't stop the sound module. I'have being waiting this for such a long long time! Pleaaaaase!!! Don't go back. And tell me there are a lot of people that are able to use the sound.

To MRozier
As I'm able to have a continuous recording with 25fps at 1920x1080 on the 5d mkIII, the settings that works for me are:
In MLV-Rec -press(Q)- Aspect ratio 16:9 / Disable G. Draw ON / Frame skipping OFF/ Preview Auto/ Start delay.... to Memory hack OFF / Extra Hacks ON / debug trace OFF (if this debug is ON, sometimes I can't have continuous recording) / the others OFF / Buffer  3 / CF buffers 3 or 4
For the sound, don't forget to turn off Beep, test tones
In Canon menu, sound is on manuel (I have no issue with sound for the moment even with 10 GB file)
As Danne already said, use only the g3gg0 builds (don't try to mix it with other module)
I use a CF card Lexar x1000 64GB (for mlv files) and SD SanDisk 95MB/s 32GB (for ML Firmware)
I don't know if it could help or not as I have no special settings indeed.

I just tried to use the whole MLV (shoot and dev) this week end. I have to say that everything works quite well! Hudge thanks to the whole team!!!!
I have a 5D MKIII with MLV_rec, 25 fps, 1920x1080, continuous recoding ok, CF card lexar 64Gb x1000 (+SD card), sound sync without any issue.
The MLVBrowseSharp.app works well too (except the preview), specially when the file is 10 Gb (split in .mlv (4.29Gb), .m00(4.29Gb), m01(1.8Gb) in the CF Card but seen as one file in MLVBrowseSharp.app) and the wav file is created as one file that is sync to the dng folder once put together in AE (with ACR)! Really great job.
The MLVViewer in the 5D is fantastic, too. My only asking (and I know it has been asked already) is: it woud be nice to have a smaller information area in the LV when recording as it was for the Raw_rec module...
Many many thanks again!!!! Your an amazing team!
#16
I found an answer that resolve my problem:
As Ted Ramasola said:
"if I would dare guess that the mkIII is the same in MLV menu as the mkII then you go to MLV menu  and turn DISABLE G.DRAW to ON. I know, its mislabeled and I was wracking my brains as I thought turning it on would do as it say, but it actually does the opposite and DOES NOT turn Gdraw off when it is ON."
Now it seems to work fine. Thanks again!
#17
Here I'm again on this topic g3gg0. I installed your build and removed the other nighly build.
Now I can see the mlv_snd module but when I record (the global draw is ON), the global draw turn to off on the LV and when I stop recording I have a "error -1" on the top left. Did I miss something?
#18
I just saw there is another topic about the MLV install:
http://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=7122.1175
I think I'd rather keep on ask my question on this topic...
Thanks!

I tried the MLVBrowseSharp.app and I can have Raw or dng files but I don't have any audio file. I've a (stupid?) question: how am I sure that the sound is recorded (like it is on a H624 .mov) when I record with the MLV_rec module? Many thanks again.
#21
Thanks a1ex and g3gg0 for your quick answer! I understand now. It was so obvious that I didn't get it...
As I didn't know it was the date, I put "a kind of" example and the only reason it's weird is because I thought I could have that kind of number and I didn't check the exact number... Just a little bit slow to understand simple things! Sorry but let me thank you again and again for your great job!

@RenatoPhoto
Can you explain me the logic of the Raw file value number while recording?
Sometimes it goes like this in a very logical order:
M20-1240.raw then M20-1241.raw, M20-1242.raw
and sometimes it goes like this :
M20-1250.raw and the shot after can be M21-1263.raw and not M20-1251.raw as expected. Did I miss something?
I use MovieSlate to synchronized the soundtrack and this could be helpful to understand the way it works to organize my shooting.
Thanks again to ML team for your amazing work!!!

Example: M20-1250.raw (first shot) and the shot after can be M20-1263.raw and not M20-1251.raw as expected. Did I miss something? I have to use MovieSlate and this could be helpful to understand the way it works to organize my shooting. Many thanks!

Yes, Lourenco, you're right, my CF card (Lexar 1000x 64 GB) had something wrong (I think I have to reformat it), I tried with another one and the browser works perfectly well (just like before). Thanks again for your great job, ML team!
