New 240 MHz preset for 5D3 / EOS M / 100D (Download available)

[Danne]

I tested on Extreme PRO 170MB/s V30 256gb card and working(eosm).
EDIT:
Also tested now and working on an Extreme PRO 95MB/s V30 32gb card.

[vastunghia]

Just for the record, tested 5D3 113 and all is well apparently (check detailed results here).

Could you test this version?
https://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=25781.msg240247;topicseen#msg240247

Same code more or less. Test it with 2.8k preset and turn bitdepth to OFF to enable 14bit.

tried, same.

[lightspeed]

Could formatting the card do something. I use it on Mac and erase it with exfat

[Danne]

I erase with dos fat on mac:
Tested 4 cards, all works! around 89Mb/s when doing benchmark and in practice around 77-80Mb/s when recording 2.8k 14bit(eos m).

These cards.

Cool results, thanks Danne for testing. Lucky Sandisk Extreme PRO SD cards

I have added all new reports to this reply.
Also I put a link to reports in first post.

I tried formatting the Sandisk Extreme Pro 170, 128GB card which doesn't work @240  with the Mac,but sadly, it still doesn't work.

The card which doesn't work is more recent than the one that does. Maybe it is a firmware revision thing?

Is there a tool I could use to display the SD Card's info.? This would help us find compatible cards.

Working Card serial begins with 213
Non-Working Card serial begins with 221

[Danne]

Formatted dos fat?

[anto]

My 512 170MB/s serial is 212

btw found that formatting in exfat it reaches 62 MB/s with 192 Hz 

[Walter Schulz]

Sounds like LV mode, not play mode.

[Danne]

Cards not working maybe needs to be tested not being fakes. Benchmark in some fast card reader.

[theBilalFakhouri]

More likely Sandisk Extreme PRO SD cards which work at 192 MHz they aren't fake. And the problem could be that just the new 240 MHz on EOS M / 100D isn't perfect for every Sandisk Extreme PRO 170 MB/s SD card (for some reason).
The fake cards can't write faster than ~25-30 MB/s (from my own experience), I bought before one 95 MB/s and two 170 MB/s fake Sandisk Extreme PRO SD cards.

Other similar example, the new 240 MHz preset still doesn't work on EOS M using Sandisk Extreme PRO 256 GB 200MB/s R, 140MB/s W SD card. While the same card work on 650D at 240 MHz (Walter report).
More likely there are some unknown variations among 170 MB/s SD card (just guessing). And the issue should be fixable somehow in first place by changing some SD configurations which we are not aware of on EOS M / 100D.

[Walter Schulz]

Offtopic: Just another benchmark. Extreme Plus but no 5D3, M, 100D and not @240 MHz.

Hard to tell for sure but if testers keeps reporting we'll get a better perception.
Funny when I tested an extreme 90Mb/s card both 240 and 192Mhz patch would perform about 65Mb/s.

[gabriielangel]

Formatted dos fat?

Yes.
I tried Dos fat, then I tried ExFat, then I tried formatting with the Camera.
It doesn't work! My card that works has been formatted ExFat with the Mac.

[lightspeed]

my serial number starts 213 and doesn't seem to work.

[Danne]

Would be better with screenrecordings of benchmarks before and after patch applied. Recording should show the exact card clearly. No way of validating otherwise.

I can't get the camera to "See" the writing (Too small, I need a magnifier to see clearly) , but could you look behind your cards?

Sandisk Extreme Pro 170 MB/s 128GB
Right below the serial number on the back of the card,

Working card says "Made in Malaysia"
Non-Working says "Made in China"

[Danne]

So try to benchmark your card to see maximum speed. Here´s few programs that might work. I have no experience in using them but feel free to have a look.

Published results are always better with screencaptures or recordings.
My sandisk 256Mb/s is made in china.

[Danne]

Thanks a lot for a very good test 👍.
Should test the shit out of that china card .

[theBilalFakhouri]

My two Sandisk Extreme PRO 170 MB/s SD cards are made in china, and they work on 100D with new 240 MHz.
Edit: more likely gabriielangels' Cards are not fake SD cards.

[wyup]

No performance gain with 64GB Sandisk Pro Extreme 200MB/s Made in China. Just as another 170MB/s user https://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=25781.msg240289#msg240289 posted, 240MHz gives 20 MB/s and 190MHz gives 60.5 Mb/s actual recording speed, same as previous build.

[Danne]

Cards not working might work with trial and error modifying small increments in 240Mhz patch. "Unfortunately" I don´t have one of these cards myself to play with.

[vstrglv]

I tested on Extreme PRO 170MB/s V30 256gb card and working(eosm).

The same on Sandisk Extreme PRO 170MB/s V30 64gb card  working (eosm). Made in China.
@240MHz  Write - 92.1 MB/s
@192MHz  Write - 77.5 MB/s
@160MHz  Write - 68.9 MB/s
