Tried to update the 15 jan with the 29 jan on 5d2.
Can't.
LV button doesnot react, dustbin  does not react.
Camera still seems to be working, but takes longer to start.

Should u use the very same CF card as you used to install?

QuoteDoes it help if you set ML digital ISO to 0?
No, it doesn't. Here you have another example, straight out of the camera:

Recorded without ML ISO -0.3 EV. Just Canon analog ISO 800. (but it also appears on any other ISO setting.)

Take the card you used with older ML version.
Delete ML folder and Autoexec. bin
Copy extracted nightly build contents (ML folder + Autoexec.bin + FIR) to card.
Startup cam. Report results.

Riwikidi

Report results.

did like told. Vers 29 jan is now on.
LV button still does not react.

Restore cam's factory default settings. Including C.Fn settings.
Try again.

If it's not ML ISO, I'm not sure what else it might be. Can you send me a copy of your ML/SETTINGS directory?

After that, reset both Canon and ML to default settings and see if it helps.

Riwikidi

All my customed settings were changed after updating ML. So rechanged them.

Only auto rotating of vertical images doesnot work anymore although selected in 5d2 menu . What now?

Walter Schulz

What is your status right now?
Is liveview button working?

Have you tried to reset all Canon settings (including C.Fn) and ML set to default, too?

When I use the Canon Live View, it seems it doesn't happen.
It also seems that there are less blinking frames when I disable Auto lighting optimizer. But because of the random issue, I have to test more to be sure with my assumption.
Next I will test Canon Live View with enabled Auto lighting optimizer, but I think my camera is stressed with some settings and magic lantern.

Riwikidi

Yes, LV button is working again. It was disabled by software, no hardware problem, happily  :).

"Have you tried to reset all Canon settings (including C.Fn) and ML set to default, too?"
not yet.... (hate to go through the menu again to re-custom  :))

Do you think this could solve the problem of  exposure  portrait photos vertical in the display in stead of horizontal.
Auto rotating not working is really annoying.

Morku

I tested a little more. Things I did:

1. disabled bootflag and rebooted
2. removed battery grip
3. Formated cf card (and removed ML)
4. cleared canon settings
5. cleared C.Fn funktions
6. Made these install steps: http://wiki.magiclantern.fm/install

Still get blinking frames.
I tested with disabled Auto lighting optimizer and ML Live View.
Enabled Auto lighting optimizer and ML Live View
and enabled Auto lighting optimizer and Canon Live View. First blink frame appeared after 1:05 minutes.

No blinking frame with disabled Auto lighting optimizer and Canon Live View... yet!
Seems like I got a bad camera model :(

Riwikidi

Could somebody please react on my issue?  :)

a1ex

Maybe after you read the forum rules.

Riwikidi

I have no clue what you mean by that,  which forum rule did i exactly violate?

a1ex

The one about bumping your own issues.

And you have already received the solution to your issue; you just refused to try it.

Hello guys what is the maximum fps in full hd in raw?
If 30p is set in the Canon menu , Then with "Frame Over Ride" enabled and set to "Exact" in the ML menu you should get up to 35 FPS
But will not be continuous at the Max resolution on the 5D2 . A few seconds at best.

Sane__

Thanks! Can you shoot at maximum resolution at 25fps?

I would think so , I Shoot continuous 23.976 fps @ 1872x936 1:1 and 3x crop @2048x872
Link to a post I write on the resolution Frame size  that's possible

Hi there,

I've been using ML on my 5d2 for a while now with great success.

Lately I have encountered a problem that I can't figure out myself, since I've set up my camera for filming RAW MLV, my file names when using AETTR have changed from IMG_ to _IMG_ but with the file's XMP still being named IMG_. It appears that this way, Lightroom (where I process most of my timelapses) can't connect the XMP to the file making post-deflicker useless.

Has anyone encountered/solved this problem?

Many thanks!

Need more info , installed nightly build date,  camera setting etc...
We can help more then.

Or a little knowledge about Canon menu ;)

Set color space to sRGB, not Adobe RGB.

Kharak

What do you mean about setting the color space to sRGB and not Adobe rgb?

Is there any difference in the Raw output, if so, wouldn't Adobe rgb contain more colors?
once you go raw you never go back

a1ex

No, the difference is only in the CR2 metadata and file names.
