Confirmed 5X Zoom causes freeze up, pop battery to rectify. Turned 5x off in Liveview Zoom Tweaks to continue testing.

Tested in mlv_rec only as most of my work requires sound. 5D3 113, tested all 3 bit depths. Global Draw on, mlv_play, raw_twk loaded. 1920x1080 24p. Used deafeyejedi's latest build. Used MLVFS (vert stripe fix on) and Davinci Resolve 12.5 to decode. Exported at h264.

Here is what I have:

(definitely worth hitting that download button to see the original file)

As you can see, 14bit is normal, 12bit looks normal, 10bit every second(ish) frame is corrupted in top third. Plays back in mlv_play this way too.

Upon further inspection – testing 12bit whilst moving the camera I encountered this (keep an eye on the top portion of the frame):

Also it seems that it isn't decoding all the frames...  Same number of frames in the folder as 10/14 bit... Could this be a resolve issue? Or MLVFS?

Awesome progress so far, thank you to everyone working on this. I am suuuper keen to see at least 12bit working in mlv_rec! That would be a dream come true.

Here's some size comparisons:

Thanks! I went out and picked up two Samsung T3 external SSD and configured them to raid 0. Probably overkill but that solved my issue for the most part. I guess it is also just the sheer size of the folder I'm trying to mount right now.

First of all thank you for this amazing piece of software! It has allowed me to create amazing things. Just wanted to check as I'm having issues with speed too. When I mount a folder of 128GB of .MLV files I get the "(Loading...)" text after the entries in the browser. All boxes left in default (labor intensive settings unchecked). It will usually take up to 30 minutes to load all of the files. I'm on a 2015 15 inch macbook pro (all possible hardware upgrades from apple store). After the files load I import them to resolve I usually get the spinning wheel for around 10-15 minutes before the dialogue box to change the project settings pops up and I can continue processing. I've seen the video tutorials and it seems like no one else experiences this wait time even with large .MLVs. What am I doing wrong? Could my USB 3.0 HDD be the bottleneck? Rendering out of Resolve is generally running at 12-15 fps. Thanks in advance.

You catched lot of emotional shots, which is priceless. As is can see this would be an enormous amount of work in post.
Maybe YOU can tell it if it was worth it to shoot raw instead of compressed Technicolor Cinestyle

Im also courios about your charges, 10 hours of work at the wedding, and weeks in post

Thank you.

We charge around $3,500 AUD for this style of video. The couple also get a clean up edit of the ceremony and speeches.

It doesn't take a whole week for editing. Maybe 2-3 full days.

I got my Mark IV yesterday. Doing a bunch of tests and I dared try to record 4K 24p to my Sandisk 95mb/s SD card. It recorded an uninterrupted 16 minute file (63GB single file) to the card.

I guess this is good news for the SD slot speed?

Hey, just thought I'd share this with you guys. I've been experimenting with RAW at weddings but this is the first wedding where I actually had the balls to shoot EVERYTHING in raw video.

I shot this solo, but I had 3 cameras with me, all running RAW at 24, 50 and 60p throughout the day. I shot over a terabyte of MLV footage! (backing up as I go)

Was it worth it?
