Hi! I've just installed Magic Lantern firmware, it's pretty awesome, but:

I want to make a timelapse movie using the Intervalometer, using long intervals of 10 minutes, even though the Invervalometer menu allows me to choose "10m" as interval, the camera seems to shutdown/stand by and never takes the second photo.
How can I solve this?

Excuse me if my english writing sucks, its not my native language.
My camera is a EOS 550D
Thanks!
Camera: Canon 550D /  t2i
