Looks like its working great and theres definitely inmprovement not only in benchmark but actual filming, i can record longer in all modes

192MHz mode. The 240 mode just gave me super slow speeds of 20-22MB/s. Forgot to snag a pick, if you need it tho Danne I'll wait around for it again haha.

If you look at your sd card you will find screenshots there called benchX.ppm. You can use infraview to open them and save them as jpeg for a cleaner sharing of your results.

Danne · « **Reply #2452 on:** July 04, 2020, 12:48:38 PM »

Thanks all. No need for more tests around 240Mhz. Simply isn't working. Seemingly, only on eosm. Go figure.

Tullen · « **Reply #2453 on:** July 04, 2020, 05:17:55 PM »

Im happy I didnt have time to do my guide yet

. Still planing on doing it though. But I guess till will move some goalposts.

Edit: Or maybe not? Danne: "The card speed depends on fps. Even if the card theoretically seems to work for this it seems with 24 fps it maxes out around 57Mb/s. This is not the case with full resolution preset which runs with a reduced framerate."

Danne · « **Reply #2454 on:** July 04, 2020, 05:54:25 PM »

Exactly. That´s why benchmarks are so fast when in play mode. Higher fps reduces the effect.

Do you think it will translate at all for 24 and more fps? To 18fps 5k ana flv?

Kgncom · « **Reply #2456 on:** July 05, 2020, 12:28:12 AM »

so, I understand benchmarks are hardly a 1:1 analogue for in the field performance, but I’m confused as to how 24fps recording would bring the write speed back down SO much

Tullen · « **Reply #2457 on:** July 05, 2020, 12:32:51 AM »

I guess the most straight forward is just to test and see if you get any better real world results recording.

New build:
https://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=9741.msg208959#msg208959

- 1736x2930 16fps mode(16:9)

Former hidden "silent film" mode in 2.39:1 18fps now becomes richer 16:9 format. To reach this feature select 5k anamorphic flv and select set 25fps from movie tab menu. Push menu button twice and it should go into 1736x2930 16fps. In 10bit continuous with last 192Mhz patch.

Kgncom · « **Reply #2459 on:** July 06, 2020, 07:45:38 AM »

I’ve never fiddled around with the anamorphic modes before but I’m wondering what exactly the difference between the rewire and not rewire is.

Danne · « **Reply #2460 on:** July 06, 2020, 08:45:21 AM »

Early preset. I erased one of them just now and renamed a few presets to reduce confusion. Redownload and see if you still have the same questions after this version.

Sandisk Extreme Pro 128GB 95MB/s

Low level format in camera (Menu button -> First tool icon -> Format card -> tick in low level format and press OK)

A few tests runs of the benchmark as well as taking a picture, so card was not totally empty when I run the below benchmarks.

Modules tab -> Bench.mo ON -> Restart -> Debug tab -> sd overclock -> 160MHz -> Restart -> Debug tab -> Benchmarks -> Card Benchmarks -> Quick R/W benchmark (1 min) -> press play

160MHz

Debug tab -> sd overclock -> 192MHz -> Restart -> Debug tab -> Benchmarks -> Card Benchmarks -> Quick R/W benchmark (1 min) -> press play

192MHz

Edit: 240MHz gave around 20 MB/s and Global Draw Off made no difference.

I can't achieve those marks that you achieve, with the same Sandisk Extreme Pro 128GB 95MB/s
These are my numbers after low level formatting:
sd overclock 192MHz:

sd overclock 160MHz:

@guerchi. Could you test this version? It goes straight into 192Mhz. I tweaked it a little. Maybe works better:
https://bitbucket.org/Dannephoto/raw2mlv/downloads/crop_rec_4k_mlv_snd_raw_only_2020Jul06.EOSM202_ver_1.zip

I run these numbers:

Code: [Select]

static uint32_t uhs_regs[]     = { 0xC0400600, 0xC0400604,/*C0400608, C040060C*/0xC040060C, 0xC0400614, 0xC0400618, 0xC0400624, 0xC0400628, 0xC040061C, 0xC0400620 };   /* register addresses */
static uint32_t sdr_192MHz[]   = {        0x8,        0x3,                             0x4, 0x1D000301,        0x0,      0x201,      0x201,      0x100,        0x4 };

@Danne, thanks! i just tested but I get almost the same results:

I will try with the 170MB/s card.

guerchi · « **Reply #2464 on:** July 07, 2020, 02:24:57 AM »

I tested the Sandisk Extreme Pro 128GB 170MB/s and give me these results in play mode on 192MHz:

In real escenario I can get stable 62MB/s that means Continuous 2320x1254 14bit (1.85:1) in 2.5K Mode!
When it seems that the EOSM has reached the abyss of the possible, you do it again, thanks Danne!

So toyed around with the 16fps silent mode but i was always getting corrupted purple frames. When I turned off the force 25 fps mode though the fps dropped to 14 and I wasn't getting any purple frames.
I decided to test record time in this 14fps silent mode. My resolution was 1736x3256. I was using the card that I benchmarked on reply #4211 in 192MHz overcloc k- Sandisk256GB 95MB/s. I went through the various bitrate settings (10-14) with two exposure scenarios, one as overexposed as possible, and one only a little overexposed. I also had global draw turned off in the video submenu, and sound was disabled. Once a clip hit a minute I called it continuous and stopped recording.
Here is an imgur album of six screen caps of different examples (3 for overexposed and 3 ETTR) https://imgur.com/a/W62ZSyx
It seems my card's in the field write speeds taps out at roughly 68-70MB/s. This new build is pretty stellar. Thanks Danne!

Danne · « **Reply #2466 on:** July 07, 2020, 08:02:37 AM »

I uploaded a new build. Could you test for corruption in 16fps in that version?

I'm not experiencing corrupted frames now, Danne.

Danne · « **Reply #2469 on:** July 07, 2020, 11:12:57 AM »

Cool. Should be fixed.

Stousen · « **Reply #2470 on:** July 08, 2020, 02:47:02 PM »

Does anyone know if it is ML that impacts my manual photo settings on my eos m?
I cannot seem to do any auto iso shots. It allways reverts back to 100.

Also, i cant choose auto iso in ml menu either, while in video mode.
Anyone have a clue?

Cheerio

Danne · « **Reply #2471 on:** July 08, 2020, 02:51:49 PM »

Turn off iso button handling from crop rec menu. It's under customized buttons.

Oh yes! Imagesaver Danne. Thank you. Out in the woods and dont want to spend too much battery on trying iso changes.

Best!

Hello, I wanted to comment that I miss the height in the anamorphic 5k the height of 1900 as before July 5 and even more the 2160 in 16.9 with the increase in speed, in 12 bits.
Thank you.

So i'm just getting back to using my EOS M after borrowing it out to someone for a month. Is there a way to get 2.5k without the crop?
