The goal is to achieve near HDMI speeds, so we can have liveview without a capture card or HDMI cable.

## Custom Liveview

- Overlays work, doesn't slow down UI

- Sends raw data to viewer, low CPU/RAM usage on camera

- Full HD (same as HDMI)

- 15fps

# Pros over HDMI

- Allows normal PTP operations to be run while running liveview, from one USB cable

- No external capture device needed or HDMI cable (which in my experience, are very bulky)
