I will post a build when i finished that for 101c. 😉

So, here is the new build for 101c. Please try if its boot and if everything is working. 😉

hy err99,

thanks for all your work, but i'm sad to report that 101c isn't really working.
using the new build the cam dosen't take any pictures anymore (it hangs with the orange led next to the s-button blinking). using the optical zoom while taking videos works only randomly and if it leads to a fixed zoom value till rebooting the cam.

Hi,

here is a new 101c (V2) build, please check if taking photos is now working properly.

The jog dial and control pad buttons are now seemingly unresponsive most of the time, in particular when switching between manual modes.

Yes, true. Looks like my last try to block the encoder have some side effects. 🙁
Okay, for now i switched back to the old implementation for the jogdial task. I can see any
unresponsive sideeffects with this, but after leaving the ALT mode, all jogdials events in ALT mode are also passed to the canon firmware. So dont wonder about changed AV/TV values...

So here is a new version for 101a (lets call ist also "V2" like the 101c build 😉 )

ERR99

An here the same "V2" build for 100c:

I really appreciate all your hard work on the S90, ERR99!

I'll look later when I get home and see what I had. In the meantime maybe try

do
a = get_usb_power
until a>0

don't know if that will work.

Michael L
If there are additional lines I need, can you please post the entire script?

Thanks!

If I get this working, I'll be trying the S90 for some kite aerial photos later this afternoon. If I can't get the USB remote working, I'll probably just use an intervalometer script that is working well.

I just want to the ERR99 and everyone else who put together the S90 port. I have FW 1.00c and just installed the 1.00C build. At first blush it's looking great! I really missed using CHDK when I upgraded to the S90 and now it's back!

I just can't thank you guys enough!

quick question...from a relatively non-technical...but --highly-- appreciative observer of the way cool ongoing s90 chdk work. will the s90 chdk offer a timelapse/intervalometer function? that would be nirvana...a genuine timelapse capability on my s90. thanks for any info.

jblc

ERR99, you're awesome😉 Thank you for the continued work, this is pretty exciting to have. It looks like it works well.
--> Question: is "set_backlight(0)" supposed to disable the LCD? It turns it off UNTIL a photo is taken...then the LCD turns on after each photo. Is this a bug or the way it's supposed to work?
--> When a script receives the USB remote input, as soon as the remote is activated a photo is taken even though in the script there's a long delay before the camera should shoot. The camera shoots again later at the right time, but there's that extra photo at the start. "Remote" is disabled in the chdk menu. This might be normal operation or a bug; I'm not sure.

hi,

thanks a lot for the new build. taking pics works now, overrides in picture mode also work.
optical zooming in video mode works (only sometimes randomly) only for a few seconds and locks the zoom (optical and digital, the cam seems not to accept any commands from the lever anymore).
scripting works.
the rest also seems to be working.

Override iso on the 1.00C build on my carmera doesn't work. Iso override values seem to be in hex values. For example if you put 32 in override camera shows 50 in exif info but the picture isn't any different than iso 80 picture.

Please read the CHDk Manual and/or Wiki. e.g. http://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/CHDK_firmware_usage/AllBest#Override_ISO_value
"This functionality needs wider testing. There appear to be inconsistencies in how the ISO Override is behaving on various camera models. Sometimes it acts as expected, sometimes it does not. One possibility is that the ISO override may, at times, be added onto a manually selected ISO value, or the camera's AutoISO value. Until ISO-Override has been debugged, and has some reproducible effects, this functionality should be considered experimental."

Yes, this problem is known and also with the other fw-builds.
But i think i found a solution for that. So here comes "V3" beta version, please check if zooming during video recording is know working properly and also test if the keyboard/usb stuff is working as expected (i made slight change in the kbd-task). The Jogdial problem is still there, so dont expect any change on this topic.

Beta V3 for 101a:

Beta V3 for 101c:

Beta V3 for 100c:

ERR99....is one of those recent 101c versions that were uploaded less than 1 minute apart supposed to be for 101a?

There is only one V3 build posted for 101c.
For 101a, use the first V3 post with the name "Beta V3 for 101a:"

thanks a lot err99, optical zooming in viedo mode on 101c now works without any problems.

sorry another noob question.
where does one get a remote for the s90.
i am looking to use my s90 for a KAP rig (kite aerial photography) so the usb option might not work
thanks.
