Just want to salute Alex,Nikfreak,Nomaed and other who contributed for this great achivement. I loaded the dottune module just for the test and It stopped during the tuning operation and gives the user canceled the operation error.i knew it's not gonna work but why not give a chance when my cam is ML powered?

Confirmed this morning that the FPS (set to 24 on the canon menu) is locked at 21.576 and deviates +/- .002 FPS during recording. I'm sure there is an issue with the algorithm that regulates frame rate, @Nikfreak, I looked through Raw_Rec.c and couldn't find the part that actually controls frame rate/how data is recorded to the SD card. Is it in another place?

EDIT: I found fps.c, am looking through it now.

Any news about audio meters and headphone monitoring? These ML-features are the main thing for me to install ML.

nikfreak · « **Reply #105 on:** January 17, 2015, 05:06:45 PM »

Good news. Full Resolution Silent Pictures are almost done. Shot some test DNG's and it looks great.

@nikfreak -- Great news regarding FRSP for the 70D!

you need to reset custom functions too

Not able to install it, Dez. 2013, Ser# 043021xxx, bought in Germany.

But: Thanks nikfreak - you made my day, so I'm a happy camper and wait for following releases.

Happy to test later.

SML 123: This is an alpha so we all know the risks (see Nikfreak, and ML warnings). Why using reference 60D

SML 123: Why using reference 60D

Because 60D works like 70D here: No user accessible clock battery. And therefore all techniques involving removal of said battery won't do.

Hm, i don´t have this problems on my 70D.

Just to avoid everyone from posting a serial number, here's the trend:
Does not load 0620 ... and lower (only post if does not load and 1st four digits are higher)
Does load 1000... and higher (only post if does load and 1st four digits are lower)

So far its the 1st digit is the divider ... interesting candidate (perhaps some binary number will be the make/break point).

(and not the crew who can't follow instructions and are surprised that canon stuff is made in japan! with firmwares!....but anyway, if you don't want to take a picture when you need to reset the metering, mount the card and write/flush the buffers ie straight after the firmware-sensor clean...don't...same as if you want to burn out your camera early keep running full res raw on alpha code, that'll work)

Look, you really need to watch yourself with the talking down to others. Almost every post you've made so far has had some sort of condescending tone to it. It's not at all constructive or useful, and to be frank, you're a forum newcomer with a total of 5 posts. You haven't exactly earned the right to speak to others that way here, if there was such a thing. Good for you that you are an admin elsewhere, but you aren't one here.

Your method of installing this build worked for you personally, but that's actually not what nikfreak's original instructions specified. They simply said to have at least 1 picture on the card before running the FW update, there's nothing about snapping 1 picture right after the FW update (look again if you don't believe me). Glad to hear that worked for you, but as you can see in this thread, not all 70Ds are the same.

Yeah you wont find anything that controls fps in raw_rec.c. I've given a1ex the FPS timer values and he's already working on a fix. However, your camera is probably still recording at the FPS value set in the Canon menu despite what ML says. Are you getting the 21.576 from the ML overlay or from the actual file information? When I go to 1080p24 mode, ML EVF says 21.576 but my raw footage still comes out to 23.984fps. Haven't tested any h264 though. I am running a slightly earlier build that includes FPS control but I leave it off when not looking for timer values, so it shouldn't be any different from Alpha0.

EDIT: Maybe not? Just tested raw 60fps and got the 53.976 specified in the ML EVF. So maybe FPS is screwy even when FPS Override is disabled.

Hello Everyone I install the Alpha and my serial is 082024xxxxx I bought in Jun of 2014 and I bought in B&H so Serial and date not care now the problem maybe is te region, I'm from USA maybe some people has the japan version

nikfreak · « **Reply #118 on:** January 17, 2015, 07:46:25 PM »

@digitalveil: regarding FPS -> Alpha0 differs from the pre-alpha builds... In Alpha0 70D is completely excluded from source code. We will get it right thanks to your help with listing the needed values

DigitalVeil · « **Reply #119 on:** January 17, 2015, 07:48:48 PM »

Tested raw in 720p60 mode and did indeed get a video height of 434p, which means squashed raw will need to be stretched by ~1.66x. I was kind of hoping it would be 1.4x like my 700D, but on the bright side 1.66x does allow us to shoot 1856px wide in up to a 2.20:1 aspect at 24fps continuously.

Mine is with serial 098024xxx.... Bought it in Vietnam 2014 and it works
I have never used ML before but have seen/read about this wonderful "plugin" and this is extremely good work. Thanks alot!

Have a nice day every1

ShootMeAlready · « **Reply #122 on:** January 17, 2015, 11:11:40 PM »

Here's my best guess, on the serial number. Its using unsigned binary & its 40 bits (to support serial of 9999-9999-9999).
The problem occurs when any serial number 68719476735 or less.
Possibly not allocated enough memory to read it and it crashes when it reads junk bits. It looks like the MSB must be 0001xxxx to load currently.
Probably the serial number is being read into either too short a word or signed int type, whichever
when the leading 4 bits should be zero for serial number 68719476735 or less by some word/type/sign error they are not and its crashing the loader (i.e find invalid serial number).
That's my best guess, so it looks to me like Nik has to play with size of word (40 bits unsigned looks to be what's needed).

So lets see if anyone with a serial number higher than 6871947635 is crashing the loader.

I have also had no luck. Bought in Germany October 2014 - Serial #053022****

One strange thing I have noted is that if I try sometimes to press the shutter button just after the firmware loaded page disappears but before the sensor clean screen I can get the camera to lock up and produce an error 80. This seems to stick around until I remove the ML directory.
This is not bricking the camera - Seems to be reversable

Not sure if this is helpful or not.

Once again, thank you Nikfreak for making any of this possible! I would love to help out where ever I can!
Cheers,
Rob

I just got the same err80 and froze. Scared the crap out of me for a second but pulling battery fixed it. As I said earlier in post #47 I bought Aug2014 from B&H in US 0620xxx model 70D(W)

Good days! Before everything translator excuses for the translation since I it am translating from Spanish to English with google. Yesterday install the ML and I install myself correctly I have been looking at the menus and good. But I have seen a thing that me worries and is the warming. I begin with 23C and it has come to me to 69C in less than 5 minutes and puts in red. Is this normal? Thank you for answering. Regards from Spain.
