Where is the Dof Menu ?

[Pasq2004]

Improvements for setting calculator DOF. The menu is a subsidiary of the menu "OSD parameters"
"DOF Calculator"
Show DOF calculator-options - "Don't", "Separate," "In Misc." Proposed either separately display calculator (as in the previous assembly), or withdraw from the list of additional value
===========================================

Sorry but I don t see any menu for the DOF parameters
I don t understand how to make it visible
Thx

A700 AllBest's version 50

If you choose "Separate", it will appear when you half press the shutter button.
If "In Misc.", it will appear according to the Misc setting.

[Pasq2004]

I don t find any menu or place to choose between these 2 options ??

Main Menu -> OSD Parameters -> DOF Calculator

What I mean is the DOF parameters DO appear separately, but only when you half-press the shutter button.
OSD Parameters->DOF Calculator->Show DOF calculator [Separate]

And if you want DOF on screen all the time you have to choose "In Misc.":
OSD Parameters->DOF Calculator->Show DOF calculator [In Misc.]
Of course you also neead to activate "Miscelaneous Values":
(OSD Parameters->Miscelaneous Values->Show misc values [Always]

Ok I got it ! Thx

The probleme is due to the french menu language
When using french, this line doesn't appear, either the entry doesn't exist either
the translation is bad

Edit : I checked the translation but didn't find any error
The line concerning Dof Menu is completely different in french and refer to High video compression ??
Perhaps a memory overlap ?,
I coudn't understand where the problem is

Maybe the translation is for an older build?

Maybe the translation is for an older build?

I took the one on this page  : Languages - CHDK Wiki and for build 50
Is there another place to download the translation files ?

I noticed also in downloading the English file that  the french file as much more lines in it than the English one. Is that normal ?

[PhyrePhoX]

the link in the wiki is wrong. this is the right one: https://tools.assembla.com/chdk/browser/trunk/lang/english.lng
this lang file should be up to date most of the time. if it is NOT up to date, the default language strings will be taken from the binary, so this is no big deal.

gonna try to fix the link in the wiki

[Pasq2004]

And for the french file, is it up to date or not ?

[PhyrePhoX]

yes, that is up to date.

in \core\gui_lang.c:

"210 \"DOF Calculator\"\n"
"211 \"DOF Calculator->\"\n"

The codes for video settings are:

"233 \"Video Parameters\"\n"
"234 \"Video Parameters->\"\n"
"235 \"Video Mode\"\n"
"236 \"Video Bitrate\"\n"
"237 \"Video Quality\"\n"

So only edit these lines in your lang file, e.g.

233 "Video Parameter"
...

[fbalb]

I have, line 233 to 237
I've compare my french.lng to english here
https://tools.assembla.com/chdk/browser/trunk/lang/english.lng
Iv'e the same lines !!!!
but no Video Parameters appears on my Ixus680 menu

How or where can I donwload good english.lng whithout " "\n" ....
"233 \"Video Parameters\"\n"
for seeing if in english I have the video menu

Perhaps the english.lang file is not up to date - but to check the video mode you have to delete all langfiles (on your card) in your chdk\lang folder - if there's no lang file CHDK loads the english default values (they are hard coded in gui_lang.c).


*EDIT: Ohhh Sorry, the posts title was DOF, you asked for video settings & i had my SD400 in mind !!!
 
  --> The SD870 (Ixus 860is) have NO video settings yet, no such menu  (as all DryOS cameras) !
  --> the numbers i posted for the lang files are for the latest AB 51 (trunk408) !

   Sorry - sometimes it would be better to re-read the whole thread until answering...
