Hi all,

I think this feature is possible to implement, but i'm not really sure:

Make Magic Lantern Firmware able to register videos and take shots directly on PC, this can allow camera operator to save videos directly on an archive and allow to register long-lenght videos without stop recording because SD is full.

I think also this can increase the quality of videos because USB port is more speed than SD (50mb/s for an SD class 10 versus 480mb/s for USB 2.0) and if this feature is implemented with USB remote control for magic lantern you can be able to control multiple cameras using a simple notebook, netbook or PC.

What about this idea?

Sorry for my english.

Magic Lantern got soem cool feature for u ..

go to Movie setings and u will find there option  what is named :      Movie Restart  :  Off / ON

with this option u can record movies ( 30 minutes depend of camera ) and when 30 minutes recording will finish this Option  will start automaticly recording new file so u dont need to cary abooute pushing REC button again :D ..

u got in ML Movie Options future what will show u in LiveView info abotue  Time Remaning  ( 30 minutes ) or files size ( in my case my camera can recording  4 GB file or 30 minute movie ) ..after this ML automaticly start recording new file ..

i'm not able to understand what you are trying to say, the way you are speaking for doesn't allow to remote control camera and don't do what i'm asking for

50mb/s its importand Minimum for digital cameras and Video shoting... try invest in 95 mb/s in both ways ...
or WiFi Memory Card ...

webmaster1

50mb/s is the top of the diamond who i found in a range of 10km from my house, it's class 10 SD and canon software doesn't control ML firmware options, nor multiple cams.

I understand your point but it's not what i'm asking, can a developer express about my idea?

SDX is working on a remote control with ptp that maybe could be related to your question: http://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=1508.0
