    No, Vitaliy just created a new Ptool so we can't alter the settings at all. ( ' _ ' )

  • hai vitality u mean i can update my camera to v1.1 and work with the hacks????

  • @Vitaliy_Kiselev, just found a small bug in all PTools versions: they cannot open the firmware file if it's set to read-only (I just did this after I accidentally saved over the stock firmware).

    "Error opening file, or wrong format!"

  • but I'm not seeing any 25p specific patches. Are 25p settings shared with 24p?

    Look closely and read hints. 25p is shared with 1080i settings. This is how firmware is designed, it can't be done other way.

  • Thanks @mozes, I'm about to try balazer's Cake 1.1 (which sounds exciting).

  • So, you can use settings designed for the v1.0 firmware on the v1.1 firmware? I suppose they will not be optimized for the 25p/30p framerates though?

  • @_gl i think so.

    • Well done.
  • Sweet - just trying it with 1.1, but I'm not seeing any 25p specific patches. Are 25p settings shared with 24p? ie. will old 24p patches work for 25p too?

  • Just loaded "Driftwood GOP1 AQ2 'AQUAMOTION' Experimental patch" in ptool v3.64d.
    And saved as firmware GH2__V12.bin
    The gh2 is updating to firmware v1.1 without problems...

    And that auto iso bug is Gone, nice job and well done! thank you.
