@reddeercity: Yes I tried MLVProducer but i alway get some greent lines at the bottom of the image. Also most of the time the exposure is way down, i'm not sure why. But I will give it another try and reply in the right thread when i have further qustions, thank you !

@Danne: I uploaded the MLV File and here the outcome DNG

@Danne: I tried to set blacklevel to 2048 trough the menu but it did not help. Honestly i'm not sure wich levels are correct for the 100D in 10 Bit. I'll upload my file later.

@DeadEyeJedi: As far as i've read, the latest build from the experimantal page has problems with live view freezing due to CONFIG_EDMAC_RAW_SLURP not beeing configured right? Didn't try it yet though.

When i process 10Bit MLV files from my 100D i get wrong blacklevels on the output DNG files. If i use dark frames, the blacklevel is correct, but there are other artifacts and stripes present. Is there any way to avoid this? I tried both the provided mlv_dump and mlv_dump on steroids.

Should i upload my MLV file and/or the DNGs ?

Edit: I use the January 100D experimental build from nikfreak

Thanks for the info! 12 Bit works and looks very good! I tried mlv_batch without DF for 10Bit but get completely wrong Blacklevel. Any info on that?

Did anyone try 10 or 12 Bit ? If so, wich do you prefer and how do you process  it ? I tried 10Bit 1728x786 with 23,976 fps. It recorded fine. I also shot a dark frame and used Danne's mlv_batch for Windows, but it doesn't look to good in the end. I get some artifacts and also vertical stripes but i'll have to test it further.

Just wanted to know how you work with 10/12 Bit

About the image review settings:

Would it be possible to place the option for enabling the normal review like the quickreview inside the existing "Image Review Settings"  under "Play mode actions" ? It seems like we can trigger an event this way.

Ah thanks, i just thought i was to stupid to use it right. I think it would be nice for us entry level users, since the 5D II ( im not sure about the others) has more options for reviewing an image.

Is there any way to manually enable MLs Picture Review Mode in Playback? I see the overlays only in the quick playback after i took the picture.

Thanks Walter, now i can use mlv_dump in "C:\Program Files\MLVDump". Will try if it works the same way with mlvfs and the right click option.

EDIT: Works with mlvfs too, thanks again! 

Is it only me or does it not work when mlvdump is in C:\Program Files ? After i moved it to C: it worked fine.

Hey canneloni,

     You're welcome! Do me a favor, watch this video done by DeafEyeJedi:
     See if there's anything he's doing different than what you currently are trying. Please report back.

Hey Paul,

it seems like it is an error with MLVFS. If i copy the folders from the virtual harddrive to any other place and open them in after effects i can apply changes to all frames, not just the first. I also used MLVProducer and exported DNGs and everything worked fine too. I use MLVFS excactly like in the video you linked.

Thanks nikfreak! Still testing out the best settings for recording and post production but everything seems to work fine. 

I found a strange  minor bug though:
When selecting the Bit depth in raw_rec.mo the selection seems to work upside down, meaning, if i press the downward arrow, the selection goes up. Anyone else experiencing this?

Edit: Is the crop.rec module from a1ex integrated ?

The Video is very nice and the workflow looks interesting, i will give it a try, thanks!

Hey Paul,
thanks for your reply! I used the SmartImport Script 2 or at least i tried. Sometimes it won't open anything but doesn't crash either. But when it works and opens Camera Raw, it is still the same. I apply my changes but they are only applied to the first image of the sequence.

@Frank7D
Yes, thats exactly what i do. The Strange thing is, that it happens on my Laptop and on my pc, so im pretty sure there is some kind of mistake i'm making but i have no clue which one.

I have a strange "bug" when using After Effects and Camera Raw. When i change something with Camera Raw i.e. white balance, it only changes the first frame. What am i missing here? I've watched many tutorials but never saw anything like this. Can anyone help?

Thanks!

Is there still no build for the 100D ? I would like to test it and help as much as i can. It's really great what you guys are doing!

Okay, that sounds very interesting, i will try it. Can i use the 5D Preset you provided in the other thread for my 100D ?

Quick Question?

Why do you all use AE and don't just open the DNG Sequence in Premiere?

Hello,
For a gain of speed I try to play with registry in windows .

in
          HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\ we can create a key named "mount MLV" (clik right->new key)
then in
          HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\mount MLV we must create a key named "command" 
and then:
          we create on right side a string value like this (right click-> new string value) and tape this

cmd /c "start /D <path where mlvs.exe is located> mlvfs.exe x: --mlv_dir="%1" && "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" localhost:8000"

be Careful we must left a space between the path and mlvfs.exe!

Now with a right click on a folder with MLV files we can mount it and start the web gui in the same time.

hope this helps.

Thank you very much! This is a great way to use MLVFS on Windows. But I did have to alter your code a bit. Im not sure whether this is a windows 10 Problem, but Windows didn't want me to have a mlvfs in "C:\Program Files\MLVFS" for some reason, so i had to move my folder directly to "C:\MLVFS". I also changed it to start mlvfs_x64.exe.

This brings me to another question though, which is the newest version of mlvfs for windows and where can I find it?

Hey Guys,

i'm experiencing a strange bug latelty. I got an new (old) PC and installed Windows and stuff. I installed the latest QuickTime version and Avid Codec for DNxHR. When i load my footage in Premiere Pro i get a white image only. When i try do play it back with QuickTime, the picture won't playback at all and i can only here the sound. I created the file converting my MLV file with MLVFS and Davinci Resolve 12.5.1. The strange thing is, when i play it back with my laptop i don't get a problem at all, everything runs smothely.

Here the specs of the PC:
CPU: AMD amd phenom ii x4 960t at 3.6 GHz
GPU: MSI N560GTX-TI TWIN FROZR II
RAM: 8 GB RAM

Anyone any idea what could be the problem, or even better, the solution?

This looks fantastic

Yes, i already thought about buying this combination:

For Battery Dummy:

Im not sure about the last cable as i didn't find the correct specification for the dummy batterys DC-Plug.

The nice thing about this battery dummy is, that you could use it without having to modify you battery door.

Hey everyone,

i was thinking about the way my 100D usees its USB connection. I know that it is used for both transfering data, but also as an outbut for RGB signals. What i found to be interesting was, that when you plug in an USB cable to use something like DSLR Controller or the Canon Utility app on your pc, the Camera will send a liveview image via the connection, but also shows an image on the camera.
But if you plugin the RGB Cable, it will shut down the build in screen.  Does anyone know why it does that?

I thought maybe there is a way for ML to emulate commands that come via USB, so the camera thinks there is an USB Cable pluged in and will leave the screen on, while sending signals to the RGB cable.

Another thing i saw was, that DSLR Controller and the Canon Utility Programm will show audio meters but won't playback the actual sound. Does anybody know why ?

Unfortunately i can't code anything so i am not able to test these things myself. I just thought about it and felt like sharing my idea. Im sorry if a topic like this already exists but a quick search (really quick) didn't show anything.
