Phil, I recently bought 2GB class 2 SanDisk card just for CHDK, I record short 10-30" HD 1280 clips, no problem. Qt report ~18Mbit (CHDK report ~2.2Mb)
Nothing is flashing.
Using my 8Gb class10 Transcend, Qt report 19.2Mbit

What is the new "live view" feature in plain words? How can I use it?
just my G12

"Live view' is changes to the PTP code in CHDK to allow a program on your PC to download the LCD image data from the camera.
Once suitable client programs are developed it will make it possible to have remote control of the camera and be able to see the LCD image over the USB cable at the same time.

I just purcased a G12 after upgrading from an A590 where I had succes with CHDK.

I had the camera format my Sandisk 16gb SDHC card, loaded the proper build version, for 1.0e but i am not seeing the Firmware Update option at all, anywhere.

Any ideas ?

FYI I've formatted the card about 3 times, low level and normal, on different occasions and have copied the CHDK files to the card including the one necessary for the Firmware Update option to appear, the psi.f2 or whatever it's called.

I've tried pressing various buttons, tried pressing the Play button twice or more in succession, flipping back and forth between play and record, nothing.

I don't get it. The Firmware Update option that's supposed to appear in the menu in Play mode is just not there.

Firmware version GM1.00e

I figured it out:

When the camera if off, do NOT push the ON/OFF button. Simply push the Play button only.

Voila! It works.

You have to start the camera in playback mode using the rear 'review' button. Don't start the camera in record mode with the top on/off button then switch to playback mode. Once started immediately open the Canon menus and select 'Firm Update' from the bottom of the first menu.

If you are using a Mac then you may need to do additional steps when copying the files to the card (http://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/FAQ/Mac#You_may_have_issues_with_permissions.).
