<p>I have been looking foe the same answer for the US version Rebel T7i. Unfortunately only the Pro versions of Canon have the true Mirroring or Clean HDMI out feature BUT by using Cannon Utilities and the USB connection rather than the HDMI mini a clean signal can be accomplished. Canon customer support agreed that this is possible but warned against an over heat issue while using this camera for streaming this way for longer than 20 minutes. They explained the over heat is in the focusing hardware. </p>

# Canon 800d/T7i clean-hdmi?

(Asked by: username_0 on 2018-05-31)

I've just bought a Canon 800d to use that as live cam recorder (using elgato game capture).

The problem is that the hdmi output has the focus box and I've managed to remove that only in manual focus mode, but I'd really like to have auto focus.

Do you know any solution?

I think that magic lantern is not yet compatible with the 800d.
