Yes, please please please test at home first.

I've been writing my card over and over today, trying to squeeze a little more write speed out.
The issues I found so far:

Raw Rec: Card full = frame corruption at the end, it warns you. No freeze.
MLV: has disabled the corrupt frame check... it freezes on card full. You have to pull the battery. File seems to be written out all the way. Indicators roll over at ~45GB of continuous file.
Frame #2 (and only frame #2) tends to be messed up in MLV as well.

I think I need to find a way to force update the file catalog after recording is finished... it will tell you there are 8gb free but probably like 2gb free in reality, etc. I'd stop at ~13 minutes with an empty 64GB card.

I switched to write edmac 0x6, did we do this before?.. I'm getting lower total throughput (no 80s in 30P) but higher average + faster ramp up. After 1 record, fullHD LV is continuous @ 79.1 MB/s... MLV & RAW_REC.

Is needed to warm up the card?




Yesterday i have record normal h.264 and it freeze a lot the camera, need to take out the battery. Tomorrow will make more tests for see if persist.

With fir + fps override?


yes I forgot to write it, but that's with FPS override enabled

You can, I just do a record first.

H264 hasn't been touched, FPS override?

arrinkiiii

Its show me the warning for FPS override on turn on camera but this happen with regular autoexec.bat  not with firmware update version.

The crash is, everything stop working (freeze with image). Disconnect camera and image still on, needed to take battery.  Tomorrow will make more tests to see if happen again, yesterday it happen 3 or 4 times... the first time i think the camera out-disconnect, at least the mirror close and freeze, went to see in canon menu and is off for the option disconnect after chosen time.

And the rest of the times is just freeze after record a few seconds. Tomorrow will check again and more accurate report  :D 


Wend i use 5x zoom for record, it say 2560 is not possible in current video mode (max 2512) but i just got 2048 under it. The max in zoom mode is 2048? 2K and not 2.5k ?

Hey 1%, edmac 0x6 and 0x06 are the same?. I had tried in edmac 06, and tested only at 1728xwhatever 2:39 ratio... when recording the screen became ultra slow and nothing was written to the cf untill the buffer went full, then it started writing the buffer to cf, all corrupt frames. So for me only 04 and 05 have worked. I have tested Tested from 00 to 06, 10 to 16 and 20 to 21. Maybe i'm missing something because i do not have full understanding of what i'm doing, so if someone can share some link or advice would be great.

Yea, I can replicate it... the problem is from the new memory management. Prev bin didn't have this. Video hacks + other stuff on the master messes with H264. I didn't notice since I've been testing the raw. Prev bin with old memory management is free of this.

Quoteedmac_write_chan = 0x06;
I'm not seeing any corrupt frames except frame 2 on occasion with 30P.

Me neder... only yesterday triyng an steadycam from a friend i noted this. Some times (maybe the majority of the times) i must record with h264... or is because is a bad paying job or is a happybirstday of a friend. But i think for that cases i can just not load ML   

All good for the sake of raw   ...of course if this can be fix, better  :D

Previous bin was OK afaik, I tried it reproducing the bug.

Hey 1%, I tried with your latest code changes (https://bitbucket.org/OtherOnePercent/tragic-lantern-6d/) and it works great with the mlv_rec but with raw_rec the write speed decreased 15 mb/s.
Not a single pink frame, so great work! I hope you release another build with the signed fir soon so we can play with it.

Weird, yea, MLV has been out performing raw_rec on 7D today.. but not on 50D.  I didn't notice any drop from the edmac but it does seem slower over all after memory changes when MLV is not.

Signed bins are broken for H264 as you can see above.

Also I noticed things like autoexec-fir and autoexec-fir.bin files in the platform directory.  Is this where the .fir file is created?

Yea, if you make 7DFIR you get the 2 files but you can't sign/combine them.

I released a later one than popstop and it should work if you're only interested in raw. I can make another with the edmac change too.

So this is what I found:

Raw_rec, no FPS, no zoom, timers off, better performance, records full LV.
Raw_rec FPS/timers off 5x or 10x, worse performance

MLV, better all around except the occasional pink at the beginning.

@1%

When you say full LV, does that mean improved/higher horizontal resolution that the 1728 ?

1728x1156, the full image.

Raw_rec
0x5 - better in 5x/10x 1280x1200 continuous here, not on the other
0x6 - better in 1x + MLV overall, maybe fps override too?

Its pretty noticeable.

got that. I'm getting varying results at that resolution first got 700+ frames then 300+ then after awhile the LV when crazy,
I heard the mirror come down,
the LV image was frozen and the menu/screen info flashing erratically.

On the top screen of the cam an ERR message flashing . no number just ERR,

This is exactly the bug that I had.


And can someone try to compile the last 1% version ("Bump edmac on 7D up to 0x06... Now I can record fullHD LV continuously.")?
Thanks :)

Let me know!

Thanks.

i cant find a good converter for MLV none recognize the file.?

can some one tell me a good converter for MAC?

Which one is Better .RAW or .MLV?



also i get only 1472x626 force 24/fps  with a 2.35:1 aspect ratio  on my LEXAS PROFESSIONAL 400x 32gb UDMA CF card.

thats as high as i can go continuous.

Dunno if there are any issues with this yet, so far no.

You're my hero 1%! I'm willing to take a risk because I have a 550d as an h264 backup. Will test before. I have 2 32gb Komputerbays, one's behaving like a naughty child. Can you sum up for me real quick how to install on the 7D. Again, sorry, but I can't read all the posts because I have to prepare for the shoot.

Thanks also arrinkiii, love your Marley. Here's a track I recorded with my brother and some friends:

Thanks everyone else too. Will post results.
