Re: Video capture on EOS 650d only with 4 to 8 fps?

I think the problem is in the settings in the camera, not the gphoto 
code. Not that I'm any savy coder but it seems to me that as the 
settings can cause this (film selected on the dial), it seems reasonable 
to believe this is the case. I'll see if I can borrow the 650D I used 
before and test it with the laptop I used earlier this year.
