Tragic Lantern / Re: Tragic Lantern for EOS M

Wow Gary, thank you very much for this!

Extremly helpful to me. After spending hours this afternoon (from looking for files to unsuccessfully dealing with make-bootable-scripts and other stuff) I just did what you wrote (GParted@fat32, format in camera, copying the current TL, ...) and 2 min later the firmware was found immediately and I am able to use TL now. Great!

There's only one thing I'm not sure whether I get it:
Quote from: gary2013 on March 27, 2014, 04:06:10 PMI now always just run a Canon format BUT make sure you KEEP the ML files on the card by not tapping that screen. Run the Format and reboot and the shutterbug is gone.
I think the ML files (in the ML folder) will be deleted like all things on the sd card by formatting in camera !? How to keep them anyway? Or do you mean the ML files of the flashed firmware and that I just have to stay calm by never tapping the screen while formating?

Thx again, I hope I can contribute to the community myself in the future!

Hi and thx for ML/TL! =)

I'm new to ML/TL and I'm just lost in the jungle. As a newbie I've not been able to find the latest and complete guide with all options to use ML/TL on an EOS M Mark I with 2.02 firmware. All the information seems to be splitted, distributed and sometimes outdated. I was expecting a first post in a sticky thread like this one clearifying all my questions as I'm used to on XDA-forums for smartphones.

So please let me ask some basic questions here:


  • There seem to be different options to install/use ML/TL, e.g. EOScard yes or no. Will I have to flash ML/TL over the Canon firmware or is it possible to use ML/TL only by booting from sd card?
  • I read about TL having more features and being developed far by 1% without backporting all of its features to ML. But am I correct with downloading the newest TL from https://bitbucket.org/OtherOnePercent/tragic-lantern? These files seem to be outdated while ML nightly for EOS M202 is from today!? Do they even work with latest 2.02 firmware?
  • Will I have to install/boot ML first and copy TL on top of it? My research says there is no stable, RC or beta of ML, right? So will I have to download and install ML nightly first and copy the (outdated?) TL files to my sd card?

In a nutshell I'm looking for the latest and most secure way to use ML/TL, preferably as boot option and especially for using raw crop video. It already would be a great help to know which files I will have to download at a minimum (EOScard, *.fir?).

Thank you so much!
