Dropping Frames - Clean install 5d mk3

[thomaz]

I just got a new 5d mk3 and have installed ML with the Daily Build 2014-02-24

Using mlv_rec 2.0  (or even raw_rec v1.0)  with any resolution I get an instant dropped frame and then recording stops (kinda locks up for a few minutes).  I then have to turn off the camera and back on and typically after the second time I can't access the CF card or even format it in camera. I have to format it first on my Mac and then back in the camera to be able to use it again.

I have a Lexar Pro 1000x 64GB CF card.

is there a setting I'm missing?  I can't seem to find a post in the forum regarding optimal ML settings for 5d mkiii Raw. (would really like to verify if it's user error or by bad luck I just got a brand new bad card).

really appreciate any help in this...  thanks!!

wondering,

do I need to have all of these turned on to use RAW?
mlv_rec.mo
mlv_play.mo
mlv_snd.mo
raw_rec.mo

or was I correct in thinking that raw_rec is the older mod (v.1.0) and mlv_rec is the new one to use.

thanks

dont turn raw_rec and mlv_rec at same time.

[thomaz]

that's what I did.
my first test was with the raw 2.0
and then I turned it off when that didn't work and tried the 1.0.

both I have an immediate red Skipped Frame at the top right of the screen in any resolution.

are you sure its recording to the cf and not sd?

what resolution you using?

[thomaz]

tried all resolutions..  nothing works...
and as far as I know it's using th CF card.  I set it as default in the settings and it shows at the top right of the screen the right size.

Thomaz, I replied to this in the other post you have already made.
Also if you search the forum you will find this issue has been opened before.
