unfortunately the rc2 is the current state of the art build of ml for our camera. I'm a bit busy with exams right now and i couldn't work on any bug fixes...

wow , you're a student? haha me too, high school :)) anyways i got that bug about video flickering, a very slow one though, i know its not about the shutter speed. this happens rarely though, but can be a problem.

Manual video exposure: Working (...)

Thanks, Nanomad! The thing is that I might get a T3 or a T1i and I wanna know which is better for video with ML, definitely no 1080p is a con for the T3, the T1i has 1080 but then max at 20FPS, I've read somewhere else in the forum that it can't be modified but at least I thought it was possible to tweak the codec to just add 4 more frames to make it 24FPS like with the 600D/60D at 35 FPS or as fast as the latter cameras. Do you think it might be possible in the future? Or nobody's working on it.

nanomad

I've got no idea, honestly.
But if you are into videos I suggest to save some money and go for the 550D or the 600D instead of the 1100D

i would recommend getting a refurbished one from canon. you save a couple hundred bucks

I would like to say thank you to nanomad and the other people who made this 1100D ML version possible !

I have a few questions :

I know that the 1100d doesn't have "spot metering" option , is it a functionnality added by Magic lantern ?

Does magic lantern add control of the Bit Rate and in fact what is the maxium reachable on the 1100D with a fast SD card like a Class 10  ?

Thanks a lot and keep up this great work !

nanomad

Bitrate control works, but the maximum depends on YOUR card.
Spot metering is missing. I'd love to enable it (I've got a 600D but I couldn't identify it in the firmware) but I'm still fighting with liveview image corruption....

Thank you nanomad  :)
Yes spot metering is a big miss  , if you can do it it will be a major add for the T3  8)

For the Bitrate ok i will test it for myself when my T3 will come .

And what is the problem with the liveview image corruption ?

I forgot to ask if there is a list of all options that work on the 1100d ?

nanomad

The beauty of the T3 is that everything, except audio controls, is working.
The "liveview corruptions" happens when you have zebras (of focus peaking) enabled and you take a shot. After that the image needs to be cleaned up (e.g. by pressing display)

Can you check the value of DLG_SIGNATURE? (print it with a NotifyBox from zebra.c where it's referenced).

Sounds good ! but so spot metering is another thing that doesn't work , right ?

Thanks for your answer and your great work  :)

Dumping it here since it may come handy later on...

Uhm even after fixing the DLG_ the screen is kinda trashed. To me it looks like it's writing in the wrong vram buffer.
It happens with peaking but not zebras btw

No need to, I've fixed it :P
Just used the 5D3 way of getting the HD buffers and it works like a charm

That method is so clean we should use it as a default IMHO

RC3 is OUT
http://nanomad.magiclantern.fm/1100D/magiclantern-v2.3.1100D.RC3.zip

What's new:
- Quite a lot of stuff that comes from bleeding edge ML code
- Fixed live view corruption
- Enabled compiler optimizations

Since this build has optimizations enabled I'd like you to test it properly and report any bugs, even the most insignificant ones.

About bit-rate: I've noticed that the 1100D buffers struggles to keep up with modest BR with audio on so I suggest you use an external source

hello,
I have canon eos1100d and i'm trying to install this RC3, but somehow when I try to update my firmware it shows me black screen and I have to remove the battery to restart. And I can't go any further. What could be the problem? Thank you

nanomad

Uhm, that's a first  :o
What firmware do you have on your camera? You need to update to canon's 1.0.5 first then use the "ML updater"

Nanomad for now is much better all about display problems

Grzld

Ok, I've found 2 bugs

When your in live view mode while in a picture taking setting, if you try to change any settings in the magic lantern menu, they won't change and the menu closes.

Set camera to manual mode > click live view button > press av button to go to magic lantern menu > press ok on a setting > menu closes and setting isn't changed.

The second I haven't been able to duplicate reliably yet, but the screen likes to tint colors.

nanomad

i can't reproduce any of them...
check that all files are not read only and make a video of the issues

Grzld

huh thats odd, I formatted my card, copied over all the ml files again from rc3, and made sure the files/folder were not read only, but I still get the glitch.

Heres a video of it.

Samueljkang

If you can mention the potential risks and current features that are working/supposed to be working I will be willing to help test.

nanomad

The only glitch is defishing not working because I forgot to disable it. Everything else should work

About the video: weird, it doesn't do that here. I'll upload a test version without the warning screen...you may have stumbled upon a bug in it
