Stuck with 50fps on GH2
  • Hi guys,

    i am using drifwoods drewnet patch and no matter if i change to PAL or NTSC it always records 720p @ 50FPS, i have repatched and patched, and still its stuck on 50FPS (NTSC version framerate?) My camera was originaly bought in NTSC country, Macau, any ideas what i should do?

    Thanks guys

  • yes, when you set it to pal or ntsc.
    next step is switch your gh2 of.
    and on again, and then format your sdcard in the gh2

  • i have tried that, and still no luck. Looks like i am really stuck on NTSC. Probably going to flash the original firmware and do it all over again.

    any ideas?

  • Create a stock patch with default values, but high version #

  • @sage how do i do that?

  • Create a stock patch with default values, but high version #

    Nope.

    Just load original firmware in PTool, do not touch anything and save it to other file and flash.

  • VK is saying the high version # is not needed. A default patch will fix this (but not the official panny firmware itself)

  • done it, but still the same problem. @vitaliy_Kiselev any other options?

  • now i am formating my ccards with SDformatter v3.1 . Loosing my mind over this

  • @MovieArmada

    My comment was only about going back to original firmware, period.

    It was not related with your mysterious "stuck".

  • 50FPS (NTSC version framerate?)

    Maybe it's a typo but there is a confusion here : 50p is PAL. For 60p you have to choose NTSC...

  • Ok, now do what VK described, but set version increment to 1 before saving the firmware

  • @Sage

    IN BIG LETTERS. PTool SETS PROPER INCREMENT BY ITSELF. PERIOD.

  • FIXED, works perfect now. Just repatched the original version and patched again with Drewnet and it works PERFECT. Thank you so much.

  • @VK

    This bit: PTool SETS PROPER INCREMENT BY ITSELF.

    Needs to have been included after this bit: Just load original firmware in PTool, do not touch anything and save it to other file and flash. *Ptool sets proper increment by itself.

  • If I remember correctly you can just RENAME the original GH2__V11.bin to GH2__V12.bin and flash the camera.
