Yes I am on EOS M facebook group as well.

Bilal,

I will try the CropMood on M2 when you release it, but am certain it will not work as no other non-M2 build works (I have tried).

I will update you with the results.

Oh and I donated 50 pounds to your effort last night!

Thanks!

"I just need to finish working on 650D / 700D / EOS M/M2 / 100D family"

Bilal if you were to update the M2 build with this I would travel to wherever in the world you are and kiss your feet.

ANY updates or improvements to the M2 build are enormously appreciated.... but frankly it has many problems greater than this... but I would LOVE to have this in my M2.

Please and Thank you regardless.

Come on, 5D3 users are not forgotten . . at least not yet
I stopped working for now on 5D3, last update was here, surely I am getting closer, but unfortunately nothing . . yet.

I just need to finish working on 650D / 700D / EOS M/M2 / 100D family (might finish in two months), then after that my ML time would be dedicated to 5D3 to the rest of the year.
I hope I won't give up, even if I did, other devs will have the info which will be documented in future.

The research was started on 700D back in august 2020, and only this year (after ~2.4 years?) I was able to get an interesting results.
I again, really hope to get something this year on 5D3, but hope isn't enough really . . at least I can say my skills are improving overtime which translate to figuring out stuff faster (if it was not very complex) compared to me in the past years, like 2018 :

I was "New to the forum" member back then, didn't know anything about coding/reverse engineering, ML project was exciting/amazing enough to get me involved.
So: patience please , BTW do you still have your EOS M? if yes, you might get some exciting news for it next month

Danne,

Thank you for all you have done for the M, I am running your latest build on both of my M bodies.

I have an ask regarding the M2: If I could have ML for the M2 that gives me what your current M build does WITHOUT any RAW or higher bitrate capability I would be thrilled.

In essence I want the live view tools like histogram, zebras, and focus peaking... and the customized buttons so that I can set everything to work without touch (I use a loupe). Also The stereo recording level meters... I would be set.

I have no idea how big an ask this is and I am looking into compiling so I could do this myself, but think this may take me a while. It seems some of the things I want like the time counter and custom buttons are not just modules that I can drag onto the card (that I understand how to do!). In fact it seems none of what I want are modules and most of what I don't want ARE modules (RAW).

So would an M2 build that focused on offering some of the ML overlays be stable/possible. It seems from my reading on these forums that most/all of the funky instabilities come from pushing the BIT/RAW envelope...

The M2 with cinestyle is pretty great with just h264 1080P, but the cannon firmware lacks a lot that ML offers.

Thank you again, and feel free to tell me to go fish... you have done a great deal for all of us already.

Walter and Danne,

What if all I wanted was the extended feature set of ML (focus peaking, histogram, zebras, audio meters better live view info at bottom of screen etc) and didn't even TRY for the RAW modes?

Any idea if there is a stable M2 build for that.

BTW would be great if someone could link the 2 builds in a reply....

Thanks!

Thank you Walter,

Stability for me is the ability to record 1080P RAW (10 bit or more) without dropped frames, pink frames, lock ups etc while having focus peaking and histogram on. Autofocus on is a plus as is audio recording. I will be using cards of sufficient speed (90+ mbs on my EOS M+ML Danne's build overclocked).

Stable HDMI out a plus in order to use a 5" monitor to help with framing/focus.

I have all of this on my EOS M (without stable HDMI out), but I am interested in the better low light performance and better AF of the M2 and I don't care at all about modes over 1080P.

I would love to try both builds as I have 2 EOS m2's on the way...

Thank you so very much for your help!

Hi New member here. A few questions regarding dev on the M2:

1. Is development of ML on the M2 dead at this point?

2. Is the build in the quote below (Nov21) the recommended/most stable build?

If not could someone please point me to it?

Zeek if you see this I also have the build from your M2 videos, but it is more than a year older than this build...

It seems I may have jumped the gun on getting an M2 if this is dead and there is no long term stable build.

A couple of things to note:

I only care about 1080P

Stable/working HDMI out to monitor would be a big plus

Focus peaking is nice

Thanks in advance for any help or even a reply ;-)

I remade the ML for the EOS M2:
