MJPEG playable on camera?

[rawfa]

Ok, so I've started messing around with the ptool3 with my GF1 and so far I THINK I've managed to follow all the instructions right. But all the mjpeg settings that are available tell me "high bitrate movies not playable on camera". I would like to change one of the available settings to the higher bitrate possible that DOES allow for movies to be played on camera. What do I do? For instance, when I click on E1 Quality I can see that I can change the Quality Value field where it says 128. From E1 Quality to E4 Quality is there any of these that I can change to a value that WILL allow me to view the shot images on camera? What setting? What value?

Thanks, Lpowell. Your setting is ALMOST what I´m looking for. Yours is 720p @ 30fps in 4:2:2 color and I´m looking for 720p @ 25fps (PAL) in 4:2:2 color. I´ve already added the NTSC/PAL patch and set the output for PAL, but when I check out the video details on my pc it still says 30fps.

MJPEG is only 30P, the 25/24 framerate hack doesn't work it just skips frames. Hopefully that changes soon.

So the NTSC to PAL hack doesn´t work with MJPEG? I HAVE to use AVCHD if I want this?

 

[Isaac_Brody]

Nope. MJPEG is always 30P. The NTSC only changes AVCHD.

Thanks, I guess I´ll be stuck with AVCHD then...

Yep. Fingers crossed that MJPEG 24P pops up soon. Even at 30P it looks really good.
