Hello, I am using a Canon EOS 1100D with Magic Lantern as a webcam for my stream however, the 1100D's LCD screen goes idle after 30 minutes and I am wondering if there is a way to prevent this by using Magic Lantern as it is not really ideal to have to press a button on my camera every 30 minutes to make sure that my camera doesn't shut off.
I know you can use the camera with the EOS webcam utility and this gets rid of the cameras idle feature however, the webcam utility software is pretty poor quality so my current set up is the 1100D that connects to my capture card using a mini HDMI cable which then connects to my PC.
If anyone knows a solution please let me know :)
