Canon EOS M

[tupp]

Hi!

Great work being done with the EOSM (and other models) in regards to raw with SD card overclock!

However, I am one of those strange outcasts who is still interested in shooting h264 with ALL-I frames.  Has any progress been made in getting GOP controls into the main build?

One big advantage of h264 ALL-I is that it utilizes the entire area of the sensor, so that the character of lenses designed for APS-C/S35 doesn't get obliterated by using a crop mode.

If it is not in the main build, instructions on where to get the code and how to compile it would be greatly appreciated.  I have installed the gcc-arm-none-eabi package on my Debian-derived distro, but I am a little rusty on compiling procedures.

As I understand, there is a 3x3 binned raw mode that allows the use of the full width of the sensor.  Is that correct?  If so, that might work, as long as there is no excessive aliasing/moire nor a pink dot problem.  From my scans of the threads, I gather that @dfort has made EOSM pink dot masks, but I am not sure how to apply them.

Thanks!

Hi @tupp

Setting up a development environment on Debian should be very similar to Ubuntu which can be used in the Windows 10 Linux subsystem and there's an entire topic devoted to that.

A few of us played around with the H.264 settings though I'm not sure if it will give you the ALL-I feature you're looking for.

Seems like there's more interest in raw which is a challenge on the EOSM because it defaults to mv720 mode which samples 3x5. The 3x3 raw mode you're referring to is by using the crop_rec module. Yes, you can use up to the full width of the sensor with that module but the vertical resolution is currently limited.

As far as the "pink dot" a.k.a. "focus pixels" most of the newer MLV apps can process them out automatically so that's no longer a big problem.

@dfort:

Thank you for the prompt reply!

I found where I previously inquired about the All-I/GOP controls in this thread here:
https://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=9741.msg156491#msg156491

You directed me to another thread in which some of the steps were outlined on compiling the GOP control:
https://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=15685.msg152612#msg152612

I am unsure on a few things.  Is the code mentioned in the thread above included in the source, so all I have to do is uncomment the lines before compiling?  If not, where do I paste the lines into the source?

Also, I have read that it is suggested to reset the camera before installing ML.  Is this always necessary?  Doing so is problematic for me as I run Linux and have picture styles installed -- I would have to get access to a Windows/Mac machine to reinstall those picture styles.

Thanks!

dpjpandone worked on that code and he has moved on to other interests but his build with the All-I/GOP controls is still in his Dropbox and his Bitbucket account is still online though I couldn't find anything related to what you're looking for in there.

The topic you referred to seems pretty clear. Just uncomment this line:

platform/EOSM.202/features.h

Code: [Select]

//~ #define FEATURE_VIDEO_HACKS // unclean patching

and add these lines:

platform/EOSM.202/Makefile.setup.default

Code: [Select]

ML_SRC_EXTRA_OBJS = \
 video_hacksU.o \
I haven't tried it recently but I do remember playing around with it a while back and some of those video hacks did work on the EOSM.

Also, I have read that it is suggested to reset the camera before installing ML.  Is this always necessary?  Doing so is problematic for me as I run Linux and have picture styles installed -- I would have to get access to a Windows/Mac machine to reinstall those picture styles.

Does clearing the settings remove the picture styles? I'm not sure, I'd have to try it out and see.

Resetting the Canon settings usually isn't necessary. For me I found it sometimes helps after doing a Canon firmware update but otherwise I rarely clear the settings.

Thanks for the links!

I have already installed dpjpandone's build and enabled ALL-I and boosted the bitrate to 1.5x.  Will test soon, and, if there are no glitches, I will gradually increase the bitrate until the video breaks.

Thank you!  So I can uncomment and add said lines to any recent version of ML source code?

I think it does... it's mentioned in the ML install instructions.

Thanks!!!  That was very helpful to know!  Saved me a lot of hassle!

I've been trying to push through some firmware updates and running the lua_fix branch Script API Tests on various cameras. The EOSM has always had problems going through these tests so I thought I'd take a closer look at it. Here are the tests that are failing and the specific assert failures within each test.

Code: [Select]

    -- test_camera_gui()
        assert(camera.gui.idle == true
       
    -- test_menu()
        assert(menu.select("Play mode actions", "Trigger key(s)")); sleep(1)
       
    -- test_camera_take_pics()
        assert(camera.gui.play_photo == true)
       
    -- test_lv()
        assert(lv.vidmode == "PH-NOLV")

The EOSM will complete the tests if those assert commands are commented out. Now the puzzle to solve is how to get them working properly on the EOSM?

Finally got a perfect score on the selftest module, Stubs API test:

=========================================================

What I did was to check the EOSM stubs against the 700D. The check-stubs.py was useful in finding a few that were different but then I remembered something that happened when I was stub hunting the EOSM2 and found the 700D PlayMain_handler stub looked out of place. Well, that wasn't a mistake. So just now I thought about going the other way and find the 700D stub on the EOSM and it got past this last stubborn failure:

Code: [Select]

[FAIL] is_pure_play_photo_mode() => 0x0
Looking for confirmation that this makes sense:

platform/EOSM.202/stubs.S

Code: [Select]

-NSTUB(0xFF3BC078,  PlayMain_handler)
+NSTUB(0xFF715BA4,  PlayMain_handler)

[EDIT] BTW--This was run on the lua_fix branch. Just found out that the selftest API test from the unified branch will not complete on the EOSM. With or without the PlayMain_handler stub change.

Looks like the EOSM is getting some favorable press thanks to Magic Lantern.

Damn it!

That just means the secondhand market adds on a few extra pound.

Yeah, I've got like 50 times more traffic on my YT videos with SD UHS hack ).

[loknar]

I've been curious, what maximum framerate did you achieve with EOS M?
I didn't managed to get past 45 fps, and I'd like to shoot some DualISO 2x24fps video, any tips?

Also can anyone recommend anamorfic lens that are suitable (and not too expensive) for EOS M?

I saw that article, can't seem to make sense of the sd uhs install on the EOSM.

I have managed to find it, install, and it completes a few memory patches. From here, I am lost.

Any help ? Is there a step by step for running the hack?

[Walter Schulz]

Copy SD_UHS.mo into modules folder of 4k_crop experimental build.
Load sd_uhs.mo in photo mode.
Go to Debug tab and run SD overclock.
Switch to movie mode and record.

Be aware this is risky and is able to do permanent damage to card and camera!

[keel]

Thank you Walter, I have been running the module incorrectly by the sounds of it.
-
After this process, my card appears to remain limited at 40mb write speed.
In other words, no reaction is happening with different cards (in a form of improvement).

I have seen things listed such as blacks 1/5, malloc errors, but I am not sure if I am hitting problems.

If it records, it crashes at 5 seconds or less, but the bottleneck doesn't pass 40mb.

[Walter Schulz]

Are you running magiclantern-crop_rec_4k.2018Mar10.EOSM202 as advised?

[keel]

I am yes, although my initial tests were from a different month. I think the issue was this movie crop vs crop mode.
 
You'll have to humor me, I have not touched my eos m in years.

[Walter Schulz]

What is your status now?
If problem persists post screens of
- sd_uhs after running
- modules tab
- Help tab, highlight on Press Info

[pbates]

Where does one get this module?

Copy SD_UHS.mo into modules folder of 4k_crop experimental build.
Load sd_uhs.mo in photo mode.
Go to Debug tab and run SD overclock.
Switch to movie mode and record.

@keel - for the SD hack I used files from @Danne's bitbucket page: https://bitbucket.org/Dannephoto/magic-lantern/downloads/  (I hope it's ok to share this, if not I'll delete the link)

I downloaded the "magiclantern-Nightly.2018Apr17.EOSM202_sd_uhs.zip" file from 17th April 2018 and put that in my card (not the 27th April file which wouldn't do anything when I tried to run the overclock test). Then I downloaded his sd_uhs module file from 19th April and put that into the modules folder in ML (replacing the sd_uhs module that was already there).

After that I followed @IDA_ML 's instructions on how to run the SD overclock test and the card benchmark test, ensuring it's all done in photo mode. His instructions are here: https://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=16040.msg200229#msg200229

And it worked. I used a Sandisk extreme pro 95mb/s 64gb card. I'm only shooting 24fps.

Do let me know if there's a better way to do this!

[Danne]

(not the 27th April file which wouldn't do anything when I tried to run the overclock test).

You are aware that this build skips the tests and goes right into patching(160mhz) when selected? Card needs to be about 95mb. Works on 100D at least.

Good to know - I wasn't aware! I was using a 95mb/s card so should have been ok. Might give it another try when I get a chance.

[alpicat]

@Danne  I've now tested your 27th April build and it works fine on my eos m with a fast card, same good results as the previous build. Thanks for this!

[Danne]

Cool. Also check this:

Is it possible to get Image Stabilization working when shooting RAW videos? I bought a EF-M 18-55MM IS for shooting videos, hoping it would fix all the shaky problems but when reviewing all the footages I still get very shaky results. When shooting H.264 the IS is apparently working well. Also when previewing from camera there is a line stating that there is no IS in the videos. I did some searching in the forum but can't find anything helpful to this issue.

[a1ex]

This works out of the box on most other models, where IS is active by default during standby. The only exception I'm aware of is 50D, where one needs to keep the shutter pressed halfway while recording in order to activate IS.

If the EOS M is different, you may want to document its behavior (when IS gets activated by Canon firmware, when it's stopped, whether the same happens in movie vs photo mode and so on). On most other models, in LiveView, IS is enabled by half-shutter in photo mode and stays active for a few seconds after releasing half-shutter, but it's always enabled in movie mode, including standby.

To understand how it works, you need to know the IS is handled by a secondary CPU -- the MPU, which also controls the buttons. If the IS is triggered by half-shutter, then it's very likely the MPU deciding to activate the IS. If it's triggered by actions performed on the main CPU (such as starting H.264), you can find what the main CPU tells to the MPU when that happens, using the startup-log-mpu build.
