have you first enable the boot flag by using magiclantern.fir?

here's what i did: i followed the 550d installation instructions: http://magiclantern.wikia.com/wiki/550d_install
skip step 0 of course and get the magiclantern.fir from ML 500d branch: https://bitbucket.org/hudson/magic-lantern/src/3a5262bee8c9

than run trough all the steps. at the end i just pressed the recycle button and the menu showed up.

Will there be autofocus when recording when using Magic lantern?
If there would be I would get it right away

Thanks again Alins, got it working. The focus bracketing seems to be working without much problem. Is there a way to increase the DOF range that it uses? Nice work on everything Alins and Chuchin!

i sent a message on ML dev list on this thread (http://groups.google.com/group/ml-devel/browse_thread/thread/81524454f9bd27ea/f04942a9f5996039?lnk=gst&q=500d#f04942a9f5996039) with details on my latest changes. the autoexec.bin is attached here.

i don't see my post on ml dev list (which of course means that when i do see my post i'm going to see two of them), so here's a very brief summary: audio, video and brack menu's are working now. i ported the shoot menu from 60d branch and now you have access to intervalometer. i have no idea if the features are actually working or not. i'm really curious what works and what doesn't

any news on a SVN branch? I would like to take a look at the code and see if my programming ability is up to it. Do you recommend a linux dev environment or CYgwin?

a question - if this is a port, why is the need to write new code?

thanks for your work!

SVN branch?. sorry, i don't think i follow. ML uses mercurial as far as i know

i personally use ubuntu inside virtualbox (windows 7 is my host os), but my understanding is that you can very well use cygwin.

by "port" i meant code that was NOT part of the original 500d tree, so i copied it from 60d branch and change it to compile/work. i hope this makes sense
