Hey guys,

for some reason I get these kind of images when I try to record with my canon eos m.



Today I updated to zeeks july2020 build. This happens in the normal HD 1080 Mode. Does anybody know what might be the issue?
I already tried to go back to the old version, but it still keeps happening...
I would really appreciate your help. :)

Try to restore ML to default settings (key icon -> Config option -> Restore ML defaults), then uninstall (install and wait 60 seconds) and reinstall. Then check the correct resolution and aspect ratio settings.

Why?

My point was to uninstall and reinstall. At first I had the same fear and Zeek told me to do the same.

But why? For what purpose? Uninstall/reinstall will just disable/re-enable cam's bootflag and toggle card's boot ability. Don't see how this will affect stripping. Please explain!

I smell snake oil ...

As far as I know, you can only get these sort of messed up liveview when crop_rec module is enabled and in use. You probably have a build where a crop_rec preset is enabled by default.
In magic-lantern menu goto the raw video menu tab and look if there is an option crop_rec and see if you can change it to "Off".
If this doesn't work, go to the module tab, disable the crop_rec.mo module and restart the camera. Everything should be normal then.

To be clear, this liveview is a side effect for getting higher resolution modes (cropped).
When you look into raw video submenu, you could also set Preview option to "ml preview" instead of liveview. I expect you get a low resolution liveview preview and can record in >HD resolution.

Set canon movie menu to 24 or 25 fps. You´re in 50 or 60p mode, It´s what´s giving you those stripes.

Thank you very much! It worked this way. :)
