Not sure which settings or boxes I should be check marking. But to achieve the 50 Mbps GOP 3 setting, do I just need to alter settings in the "end users" section of PTools, or do I have to alter any settings as well in the "Patches for Testers" section???

And if so which ones?

Thanks very much in advance.

What inspired me to do the 50 Mbps GOP 3 test was the amazing quality of this hacked GH2 footage here on Vimeo:

Why don't you download the set_.ini file that has all the hack settings?
 
You need to figure out how to do this in a Mac. There must be a way for you to be able to run the Ptool program with .ini files in the folder. I don't know how, but many have done this and I hope someone will help you here... Al

Thanks, but I'm on a Mac. And my Winebottler application can't open that file or any ".ini" file. What should I do?

Not sure what you are trying to do here, but don't use Winebottler to open the .ini file directly. Start Ptool, load the original firmware, then load the .ini file, save it, then copy to your SD card to install on the camera

Thanks everyone.

I noticed that LPowell's patch doesn't have any 1080p24 GOP Size checked and it's set to 13. Shouldn't it be set to "3" if I want 3 GOP at 1080p24???

Is it possible to combine both patches? By that I mean create a third patch that uses the settings of both LPowell and Kae?

I didn't realize I had to be a member of personal-view.com to download. Just joined and succeeded in downloading both patches. Will be posting tests shortly with both patches.

Thanks for everyone's help.
