Choosing between 1080p25 and 720p50 and bitrates

Hello,

I've just hacked my GH1. European time limit is off and FHD appears so it seems to be working fine (I've not tested it yet though).

My questions are: Can we choose between 1080p25 and 720p50 for slow motion effects like we do on the GH2?

If yes, how? I just can't seem to find any menu shortcut to do it.

Also, I assume that the bitrate can only be decided by the value entered on the Ptool prior to update the camera firmware, so is it impossible to change bitrates on the camera menu right?
 
I am not sure whether I got your question - but you can switch between 1080/25p and 720/50p when you switch from FHD to SH - and the 720/50p is suitable for slomo.

That's my point. But changing to SH assumes 720p50 automatically? I've checked the option PAL/NTSC switch on the firmware update. How can I rest assured that I'm filming 50p and not 60, and 25p and not 24 or 30?
