Hi,

I compiled ML for 500D from unified branch revision 7985950eaeaa [1]. The autoexec.bin boots in my 500D, buttons and menus are operational, but the fonts are garbled. See [2] or picture below.



I am using Windows 7 64bit, Cygwin, and Yagarto GCC 4.6.0. I didn't change anything except binary paths in Makefile. My firmware is version 1.1.1.

Any help?

you need all of the files on the card - download the latest unified release and use the autoexec.bin file you compile. make sure to include the fonts file, the docs directory and everything else in the unified tree. should look like this:

Canon 5d
Canon 50mm f/1.8
Sigma 24mm f/1.8

@ Coutts

looking every hour for the release :) as i want to give intervalometer a go and also see how other ML functions work ;) hope to see it today unless you are working on some more additional features or simply don't have time to do that ;)

Anyone want to share there autoexec.bin they might have compiled to tests Coutts current setup for 500d??? And the exact link to the ML firmware i would need to get to use his autoexec.bin, or do i still use the old firmware for now?

This is autoexec.bin compiled in my computer. Sources taken from https://bitbucket.org/hudson/magic-lantern/changeset/7985950eaeaa. Camera won't boot with this autoexec.bin if the firmware version is 1.1.0. Don't forget to copy FONTS.DAT.

Use this autoexec.bin at your own risk.  :)

Thankyou for that autoexec.bin, but was wondering am I suppose to do something else? or just format my sim card copy ml and the autoexec to it and thats it? cause when i goto the firmware thing it says Update file cannot be found and i already updated to canon 1.1.1, I went to http://magiclantern.wikia.com/wiki/Unified#Downloads and clicked on the little camera to get the unified 0.2.1 file and unzipped that whole thing to my sd card and just replace that autoexc.bin with the one you compiled, is that right at all or am i totally wrong 8/???

Alex has sent me an installer FIR to test - and it works! So, I guess this is the first alpha release for the 500d on the unified tree now :)

Unified Magic Lantern for Rebel T1i / 500d - Alpha Release







couple things:
- audio_thresholds moved somewhere.. i can't find it, so no working audio meter yet.
- expect bugs: this is the first alpha release where you tell me what's wrong and I fix it :)
- use at own risk as always.
- docs aren't updated yet for 500D - if anyone is up for the task, it would help everybody a lot!
- ***UPGRADE TO v1.1.1 FIRST***


Install Procedure:
- Upgrade to v1.1.1 firmware first.
- Download the .zip file and unzip it to your sd card.
- Run the firmware update on your camera
That's it :)

If all went well, your card is now bootable, and when you turn your camera off/on, it will boot the autoexec.bin that's already on the card, and you're ready to start using magic lantern.

Report any bugs to the official repo:
https://bitbucket.org/hudson/magic-lantern/issues

The sourcecode to this build can be found in my fork here (until Alex pulls it into the main repository at least):
https://bitbucket.org/coutts/magic-lantern/overview

Enjoy!!!
