Thanks Walter. It works now. I had the autoexec of the previous version .

Hi,
I tried to day the August 20 build and went back to August 08. With the "August 20 build ":
- I do not see neither the MLV record nor the MLV sound menu. I re-installed twice.
- It froze my camera on "sensor cleaning" at my last attempt.

Hi,

I got from MLV to dng files thanks to MLVMystic. I used Lightroom to improve the look, temperature, colors and contrast of these files.

I am on a Macbook Air late 2010. DaVinci Resolve 11 Lite complains about GPU which I understand that my graphics card is not powerful enough. I do not have After Effects. VirtualDub is for windows.

Is there another solution to make a video back from the image files on mac? Thanks.

@ ocbarrio: at 1536x618 50fps, it did not complain about skipping frames.

This is a 1066x Lexar! I was on 50 fps. On 24 fps it starts red,  yellow and then a smiling green

Thanks Ocbarrio. It worked!!!!

I tried another card, and it worked for small size raw. Then, I reinstalled the files on the former card and it worked. At 1600x644 the "camera icon" is most of the time red, time to time it skips a frame. At  1728x694 the "camera icon" is always red and skips frames.

So, something was wrong with the files on the card when I installed ML.

Only MLV.

The problem seems to be that no file is recorded. Using the .MOV video works well.

Hi Ocbarrio,

Thanks for your message. Unfortunately, it did not help stopping recording (or trying to record? because there is no recorded file, just an empty folder created).

I went to the ML menu, put MLV off but that did not help. When I exited the Movie mode by putting the camera in viewfinder mode, the LED became red and the top lcd was blinking "err". I got a CRASH00.LOG file with the content:

ASSERT: !IS_ERROR( TryPostEvent( this->hTaskClass, this, EV_RESET_PSAVE_LV, NULL, 0 ) )
at LVState.c:608, task ?
lv:1 mode:2

I sometimes get a CRASH00.LOG created but it is empty so I can not find the issue.

If I put the Raw video "off", everything is ok. So the RAW video is not compatible with some other settings.

Have you loaded the modules? In the menu, put them on and re-boot.

Thanks N/A for caring.

My settings:
On Canon menu video PAL 24 fps at the highest resolution.
On ML menu: Beep test on, SoundMLV audio on, Global draw on, Raw video MLV on at the resolution 1728x972, create directory is on. Everything else is off in other menus.

The screen is as if it still recording: it wrote prepare, then something about  creating the MLV_REC.TMP and then it seems like recording. Only the ML menu can be toggled on/off but I can not navigate in it. No other button is responding. That is a bit scary.

I tried changing a few things in the menus. This did not improve. Letting my camera record, as some point the LCD becomes black and the camera freezes.

May be I should try an older build? May be I am doing something wrong in the Canon menu? but, I have reproduced the problem five or six times. I am afraid now this will brick my camera.

Hi,
I have a simple problem. It might sound stupid but I really would appreciate your help. I am trying to make my first MLV Raw video. I use the 2014-08-08 build.
The Start/Stop button starts the recording but I can not stop it. I press it and again and nothing happens. I quit the video mode, the CF card LED remains red forever (I have a Lexar 32Gb 1066x).

Is there another way to stop recording? I don't know where to look. I searched the forum, google, youtube ... no one seem to have this issue. There is 360.1 MB for the MLV_REC.TMP file but nothing in the video folder. 

Thank you for your kind help.

Thanks a lot. Still learning. My first attempt to use RAW MLV movie mode got my camera stalled with BUSY on LCD (it was morning not dark) until I took off the battery. I have a long way to go.

If of any use, when it stalled, I had ASSERT files such as:

ML ASSERT:
lv
at ../../src/raw.c:1769 (raw_lv_request), task ettr_task
lv:0 mode:2

Hi, I just started learning to use ML. Many thanks for all the developers who create this wonderful software.
I have put on my 7D a recent nightly build ML firmware. Trying to configure the menu, the menu display changed: instead of line menu it suddenly took the form of a table where each menu line became a cell. I had to restart ML defaults. I searched on the forum for a mention of such a thing but I did not find.
Is there a command which switches the display between lines and cells? where? Thanks.

I see in http://builds.magiclantern.fm/#/ that 5D3, 6D are now present. May be one should change the introductory message? Only the 7D remains out. I hope to see it join soon.

I suppose that two serious issues with bootflag are:
1- "bootflag on" makes the camera much slower to start which is problematic when you want the camera to be quickly available for shooting.
2- Also, you can not easily get back your camera to the initial condition.

Am I right?

Hi,

I have been following the discussion for some time but I use only the alpha2 official releases version on my 7D.

Is the build you tried a "bootflag disabled" or necessarily enabled version? Does the live view freeze?

I would like to try it on my 7D, but I do not know where to get a version to use on a mac and which does not have  these two issues. Thanks
