Edit: question answered by GregoryOfManhattan. Thanks
I must be using the wrong build, since Small Hacks don't show in the raw video menu. Which build shall I download from the Tragic Lantern directory?
hi EOSHD -
1% has been producing builds and developments to
https://bitbucket.org/OtherOnePercent/tragic-lantern-6d/downloadsand its critical that a significant group of users try those builds under his direction and report back issues.
based on the code which a1ex has integrated into unified, i put together builds for 50D at:
https://bitbucket.org/GregoryOfManhattan/magic-lantern/downloadsthese make it easier for me to use the exact same code on a 50D as well as a 5D3 and hopefully helps the community to ensure that unified works well on the 50D.
the big speed ups the past month have happened with variable buffering and much experimentation by a1ex and the "Small Hacks" that 1% discovered to slow down Canon dialog refresh and disable Canon AE and AutoWB.
hopefully its not too confusing that there are different code bases for this alpha stage software.
a1ex and 1% may use different terminology.
with either code base, at the moment and for weeks now, one can record at 1920x1080p24 for 1000s of frames.
the instructions for the unified builds apply to all cameras - so what helps you achieve 1920x1080p24 on 50D gets you 2.2k on 5D3 and increases the number of frames at 3.5k.
several users have posted 50D 1920x1080p24 videos over the past 2 weeks with 80MB/s and more.
basically, as several users have asked - you don't get because you don't need 80MB/s for regular 1584x896p24 RAW video on the 50D - you only need 58MB/s
for 25p anamorphic shooters you could use 70MB/s for 1584x1058p25
with any of the recent builds "Small Hacks" enabled on unified - you should be able to shoot at
1584x1058p25.
i just did a test and have continuous recording at 1584x1058p25
please confirm that you can get that data rate and perhaps you could update your 11 July article as to the 65 MB/s limit.
