    All I can say is that GOP patches are unchanged from your previous tests.
    It is not possible to understand that caused your fluctuations.

    Can you provide small (5s) clips for all video resolutions and all framerates (plus all settings of compression)?
    Including ALL resolutions of MJPEG.

          But interesting news. (same settings)

          After 1 h. recording on SHD (720p mode, but very hi bitrate 20,1Mbps) last record on FHD (1080p mode) stoping after 10 sec. (video file is empty)
          Maybe my camera slightly mad..

          Testing more..

            Read my previous posts. I traced it back to main camera state structure and know hardware error number.
            But it is almost impossible to find where it sets error state and code.

            As for 1.21 (actual) firmware with battery support it is of little help, as it is wastly different from 1.22 (1.12 is much much closer to 1.22).
            Batter support should be a very low priority.
            The Chinese are already making batteries with chips inside that defeat the "origin" tests. I bough mine from BestBatt for $23.00, have the price of the genuine.
            They also sell a battery for $16.00 that will only work with the early firmware.
            So for $7 in savings it is not worth to waste Tester's time.
            Let him tackle the mud issue solving which will elevate the GH1 to a totally new level.
            He already solved two nuisance issues - the 30 minutes recording level for European markets and Japanese only restriction for the Japanese region.

            Great job so far.

              I disagree. It's likely all these batteries will stop working when Panasonic release 1.3 - and I assume tester13 will be patching this firmware when it arrives.

                  Would be nice to see a clip with these settings in order to check the IQ.

                    Im realy interested too, please post some clips with these settings...some scenes with fast movin' and some with complex scenes (detailed...like grass, or forrest)

                        MJPEG @ 24fps is working?
                        Or there are still "jumps" when panning and so?

                          I might suggest that the 3rd party battery issue also might wait until later, since we all can just spend 20 bucks more and get a first party version.

                          It is possible, that with such an addition to the firmware patch, that it could make a certain company unhappy with these efforts... so best to stick to things that don't impact their accessory sales until a little bit later? Just a suggestion.

                              +1. In addition to available alternatives, there is an unknown liabilility concern. Can everyone applying patches sign a disclaimer promising not to go after tester13 (not likely it will have much effect anyway ;) the first time something "stupid" happens? Ultimately, T13 makes his own decisions, but my suggestion is not to touch this one.

                                The progress on new firmware is definitely encouraging.
                                I would like to see everyone involved be as professional as possible about this, similar to the magic lantern stuff on the camera side.
                                Also, maybe if you could upload the video to VIMEO or something, that would be helpful.
                                Though the compression might defeat the purpose of the test footage.
