S95 Porting Thread

I have just tested this with SDM and it works fine.
I can upload a build for your firmware if you wish.

It would be very nice of you. I have cameras with both firmware versions so I can test both 😀

I do not have a CA-1 so maybe someone that has a S95 and a CA-1 and can debug the source could help.
Warning: the CA-1 code is not very easy to understand. I tried once and gave up.

I spent some time reading the sources. For debugging it would help to show the sequence of values in nSW in kbd.c, but I have no idea how to do it.
Also, I don't have set up the build environment yet.

Microfunguy

OK, I will do that in the next five minutes.

For debugging it would help to show the sequence of values in nSW in kbd.c, but I have no idea how to do it.

At the top of \core\kbd.c, declare :-

int gDebug;

In the keyboard code, wherever there is a nSW value, set gDebug to same number.

In gui.c, declare :-

extern int gDebug;

In gui.c\gui_draw_osd() :-

sprintf(osd_buf,"nSW = %d",gDebug);
draw_string(100,20,osd_buf,MAKE_COLOR(COLOR_BLUE,COLOR_WHITE),1);

SDM with CA-1 works fine, thanks!

CHDK can be fixed with this change copied from SDM sources, at least for me:

Great thanks to CHDK developers! I tryed it on s95 and was delited with it capabilities. I'm newbie with CHDK and it is interest to me to explore it. My ver. 1.00H. On preview mode I see white narrow stripe at the left lower corner of camera display. It begins to blink when ALT button pressed. Could you please tell me is it normal behaviour?

Microfunguy

hello and welcome.

I don't use CHDK but I think that is the amount of memory-card space remaining.

You can probably turn it off via a menu option.

Hi, Andrew, welcome to the forum !

On preview mode I see white narrow stripe at the left lower corner of camera display

That would be the 'available filespace' indicator, go to OSD parameters -> Filespace to set what you
want / don't want shown, e.g. set 'Show Space Bar' to 'Don't' to remove it.

The blinking most likely is caused by Canon & CHDK competing to write to the screen. It is usually
better to make adjustments to your CHDK settings in Review/Play mode.

hope that helps,

there is progress in full video controll via script (ISO etc.) for DigicIV cams, but I don't know how to get this to work with the S95. I thought you guy might be interessted as well AND do know how to do it right!
-> https://chdk.setepontos.com/d/5295/3

The Following script requires that you find your camera's specific "ExpCtrlTool_StopContiAE" and ExpCtrlTool_StartContiAE" memory locations.

btw@Microfunguy - streak photography thing? progress? I WANT 😛

AndrewS

Thanks! The white stripe indicates SD-card space. I found very interesting item of distance measurement in menu. What is accuracy of this method? I always see all distance parameters with half-pressed shutter with no subject to DOF menu options to choose items.

I'm using v11 on my S95.

Everytime I start the camera it saves the pictures to a new folder. I can't find a setting to turn it off..

I'm using a script that works just peachy on my S90. Can anyone provide $.02 as to what the cause may be for erratic lens retraction and inconsistency on the S95?

Not erratic, but consistent. You have to turn on / enable / check "Enable Remote" feature:

ALT + FUNC. SET -> Remote parameters -> Enable Remote (make sure it's ticked/checked)

My similar (and incomplete) script looks like:

@title AutoKAP2 Remote

while 1
   do
      a = get_usb_power
   until a>0
   select a
	 case  1 to  4; gosub "ch1up"
	 case  5 to  7; gosub "ch1mid"
	 case  8 to 10; gosub "ch1down"
	 case 11 to 13; gosub "ch2up"
	 case 14 to 16; gosub "ch2mid"
	 case 17 to 19; gosub "ch2down"
	 case_else print "Error: USB Power=", a
   end_select
wend
end

:ch1up
   print a, "-ch1 up"
   return

:ch1mid
   print a, "-ch1 middle"
   return

:ch1down
   print a, "-ch1 down"
   return

:ch2up
   print a, "-ch2 up"
   return

Here is a great FAST and ACCURATE script for the S95. My scripting capabilities are a bit weak but can someone who knows how to write scripts add a photo counter to this one so I know how many pictures were taken...that would be great thanks.

btw - why is S95 beta not included in the autobuild server? I guess it's time 😉

Delima

Is there a way to adjust the brightness in video mode?

emutier

yes, no need for chdk - just press up and move the wheel BEFORE recording video

Delima

Thanks!

Hi I'm new to the forum, and new to CHDK, I have a S95 camera and I want to make a script to when a turn on my camera on the Tv mode, i want to to open the lens, set focus to manual and set it to infinite. I make this script below, but it seens to not work properly. The lens open, but the focus is not set.

Can anyone help me ?? Am I making some mistake ??

@title Config
@param f Manual_Focus_Distance(Meters)
@default f 11061

sleep 1000
press "shoot_half"
print "shot set"
sleep 2000
release "shoot_half"
print "manual focus"

click "mf"
sleep 500
set_focus f
release "mf"

print "manual focus set"

end
