This is a little script for a enhanced tv mode. It should be work for all cams (with or without tv mode).

You can select a tv value from 64s to 1/10000s.
You can use the zoom while running the script.
You can select a focus mode.
Continuous shooting is possible.

the console menu:

[<-][->] select a tv value
[UP][DOWN] zooming
[DISP.] select a focus mode
[SET][Remote] shooting
[MENU] exit

In the script parameter menu you can adjust the start value of tv, the key delay und the shoot delay.

--[[
@title Tv mode universal
@param a integer value  [Tv]
@default a 0
@param b key delay [ms]
@default b 80
@param c shoot delay [s]
@default c 0
]]

Edit: A little bit safer, using only in record mode possible. You need a new CHDK version rev. 545
