OlRivrRat,

You need a fast SD card to get these record times.  Please use the Benchmark function of ML to test the write speed on your card.  Mine is a Sandisk Extreme /90 MB/s and the benchmark test shows 41,6 MB/s write speed.  My settings are:

1) Canon Mode: Movie, Manual
2) ML - Movie -> RAW Video (MLV): ON
3) Resolution: 1728x972; Aspect ratio: 16:9
4) Bit depth: 10 bpp
5) Global Draw: OFF
6) Extra Hacks: ON
7) FPS override: 23,991

The above settings are the same also for Movie crop mode set to the same 1728x972 resolution.

I am still testing MLV and RAW video recording (also 5x mode) for bugs and will report on that later.  I am very happy though that record times are fairly consistent and I now I can see what I am recording, i.e. screen no longer freezes when I start recording. Of course, I miss MLV sound which does not work at all in the latest build, but I hope, it will be fixed in the future since it used to work (kind of) with previous builds.

Happy testing!

you need to know that the 100D has a max internal speed of 40MB/S so it's perfectly normal that your benchmark is stuck at such a speed so don't worry your camera just brick the speed of your SD

So i come back to you to tell you that it's actually my sd that is the prblem here and so i'll change it for :

and it will be all good so thanks all and i wish you some good shoot ! ;=)

Use a decent cardreader (Kingston FCR-HS3/FCR-HS4 are working just fine. See http://www.cameramemoryspeed.com/reviews/card-readers/ ) and run a benchmark program on your computer. Recommended for Windows: CrystalDiskMark
OS X/macOS: Blackmagic Disk Speed Test
If the numbers for sequential read/write do match the numbers shown in ML you own a faked card. Contact your dealer and ask for replacement.
If the numbers are within card specs try running ML benchmark without other modules loaded, Global Draw OFF and cam switched to photo mode.

gotta watch out some cards are rated for 80MB per second READ. you need WRITE. I bought a card that said 100MB on it and had the same problem. it was the READ spec on the box. After I read it more carefully i realized i made a mistake and took it back.

Go for sandisk extreme pro if u want to record raw. I have few cards form sony and Sandisk. Sony card rated 80Mbs write speed and it performs well  in my computer and can write 60 Mbs/s in my PC but my camera can write only 36 Mbs/s.  Thinking  that my camera  can write only 40 Mbs/s, bought myself some Sandisk 45Mb/s. It performs little better than than Sony card but I wanted to try Sandisk extreme pro so bought one 64Gb and all I can say is "wow" it performance so well. I can even record higher than 720p for so many minutes with this card if not continuous.

thanks all i'll do that and so you know the camera is a second hand on which i jut changed the sensor because the low pass filter was damaged and the Sd card was included with the camera but you're right i'll check up for a benchmark on the pc i'll let you know what i find thanks again !

I completely understand your point so no problem I just can't wait to have a hand on this features so far and with some other features that's the only think that bother me

about the other features would be 10/12bit RAW recording that could be directly implemented into the experimental of the LUA so we can use both no only one each time we want to use either of these version I guess anyway at least hope it will be soon implemented so everyone can enjoy your wonderful work that's really astonishing that inde team can do that when big company such as canon and so on just either don't care or just don't want for whatever reason that why I can't wait for these version to come up so we can test them all and be finally a part of the official nightly build because in my sight our 100D and the version of ML associated will be perfectly fine after some test ^^

bastien42, the whole overlay (inlcuding waveform, histo, scope etc..) will be visible in playback mode like on all other cameras which have "BTN_ZEBRAS_FOR_PLAYBACK" defined. Guess it will be included into the experimentals once a1ex finds it worth to include. I could update ofc the 1st post with a "nightly" but that wouldn't be the same "experimental" build that a1ex provides you. I personally find we are already overdue with becoming part of the nightlies and i decided to not merge the "experimental" stuff myself as it would just interfere.

So I'm passing by to just ask when and if a1ex saw the new update that nikfreak did if no I shall just ask for it can't wait to have a hand on it and when do you find you could implement it into the experimental cheers

so you know the link to the conversation for background ^^ : http://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=16040.600

once a new build is out you will be able to use the MENU button to call zebras in playback mode. Just pushed it to bitbucket.

you said Zebras but the question is is it going to be only the zebras or the whole config of our overlay that's going to be showed ? because if so is there any reason for that and would it be possible to just show the whole overlay setting anyway thanks for your fast reaction nikfreak

and another question is it going to be released in the nightly or in the experimental build ? if so the LUA ?

I just saw a bug recently that motion detection when activated with Frame difference just indicate 0 no matter what happening on stage so did anyone noticed it also if not maybe could check so you know I'm using ( magiclantern-lua_fix.2017Jul01.100D101.zi ) with a 100D ^^ and if you want to see my settings just follow the last picture here -->

so hope we can figure it out also no matter what kind of box I took would be stuck on 0 no matter small medium large

hello everyone I hope to find some help here I've tried recently to record RAW MLV shot with my 100D and so you know I use an SD card from SanDisk 16GB 80MB/s class 10 and my camera supposedly could write at 40Mb/s as this website said it "http://rawcalculator.bitballoon.com/calculator_desktop" when you select 100D it would give you such spec so to perform continuous recording in 16:9

and in cinemascope so 2.35:1

and when I either try to record or benchmark the SD card it tells me that I write on a max of 13Mb/s is that any normal (sincerely I hope no) and if no how to counter it

Has been discussed here http://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=16040.msg182467#msg182467. For the moment not available on 100D.

There is a newer build on experiments page from today. No console anymore when booting with modules (i.e. all problems causing assert messages and initiating debug mode have been solved).

Are you really using all modules you have activated (thinking in terms of resource consumption)?

Since I haven't seen a major decrease of battery life from my camera no but in any case I always travel with 2 pack of battery so even thought I would have such issue I wouldn't be so screwed

in any case thanks for all of your answer I sincerely hope that the issue with the q/set button is going to find its way out (at least in the play mode) so that this wonderful soft can be 100% used on the 100D

thanks all and if you have any advice (tips and tricks) for this camera feel free to share it with us so you know I've been reading the whole thread already so normally the use of this soft is already quite good

bastien.A

So i've dowload the following build "magiclantern-lua_fix.2017Jun24.100D101.zip", unninstalled the last build i had and installed this build now i've the console that boot every time i lauch the camera and some time randomly "E.g when i try to record raw video and review them in the module" now my question is not much of how to disable this console but much more like how to not let it boot on the start up and randomly like that because when i see it i go directly into the debug menu and sitch on and off the console and it turn off the console thnaks for your time

ps : another wonder is in the user guide it is written "PLAY mode shortcuts

Q (550D), UNLOCK (60D), DISP (600D), LV (500D), FUNC (50D) or Picture Style (5D Mark II): show exposure tools (zebra, false color, histogram, waveform, spotmeter) and cropmarks (as configured from Overlay menu)." my question is how to do it on the 100D and if it is possible what kind of button i shoule press i almost tried every button long press short and coulnd't find out so it migfht be because the set and q button are linked so Oo i wonder how to see this pratical graph and focus point and so on ? i uploaded a ton of pics showing my actual settings

hope that will be relevant 

hello everyone I have some question first of all thank you for this wonderful soft ML :

- i have a 100d flashed with the latest version of ML i have a SD from Sandisk ULTRA 16GB class 10 80Mb/s my question is why when i try to record on raw with normal working settings such as

 it basicallly block at 13MB/s when i record  and when i try to benchmark it it says the same stuff so quite constant but my question is why so normally neither of my sd or camera should be stuck or block at such speed so ?! Oo

- is there any way that we could change the bpp from 14 to 10 for raw because if so then it could be useful to record with better resolution and still don't override 40Mb/s

thanks everyone already hope to hear from you soon
