Procedure to record 1920x1080 (for about 20 seconds, anyway.)
Switch the camera on, loading Magic Lantern. I'm using "Nightly.2017Aug01.50D109"
Enter Live View
Hit the "zoom in" button. The picture will go low-res, black and white, and low frame rate.
Hit the trashcan button to enter the ML menu.
Navigate to "Movie" and "RAW Video (MLV)."
Hit "Func" button to enter the menu.
Open the "Resolution" item and select 1920x1080.
Hit the trashcan button to return to live view.
Hit "Set" to start recording.
Be aware, this isn't very usable. It drops frames after about 18-20 seconds, which is understandable.
What isn't understandable is that the viewfinding goes very wrong - the low res, jerky preview image is replaced by a smoother, still black and white one, but it doesn't now show the entire frame that will be recorded. It's thus basically impossible to use.
You're also shooting using a very small area of the sensor - about 9x5mm, or roughly the size of a 2/3" broadcast camera.
