Looks like you've got an old version of chdk I sent you yesterday.
Today's test version is tagged as test1, compiled today at 11:15 am.

Code: [Select]

0310170: hooktest start: Wed Aug 15 16:28:15 2018
0310190: buildinfo: sx420is 100a CHDK 1.5.0 5083 Aug 14 2018 20:29:12 dryos 0x32bf

Also the focus square overwrites the CHDK menu, so you have to put the lense cap on to use the menu

Switch the camera to P mode and set the AF Frame to the <Center> in the Canon menu.
AUTO shooting mode is always problematic.

Oops, my bad. Here is the hooktest.log from the correct build. Using P mode helped. Still 2 picks on motion detect ...

I do not know what the problem is with MD script, but hooktest.log looks terrible.

Can you try to run the shoot.lua script. Does this script take only one image?
Did you try to save the DNG image?

Shoot.lua does take only one pic. I cannot save in DNG format. In DNG 1.3, no .dng file is created. When I tried format 1.1, I had to run "create badpixel.bin" and it said "create badpixel.bin failed"

I couldn't see any improvement in this build. Still 26 fails on the hooktest.log, 2 pics on motion detect and no .dng.

Hey Blackhole, this build was a big improvement. Motion capture only takes one pic now and the hooktest.log has no fails. It didn't seem to produce a .dng, but I'll do more testing ...

Thanks for the report!
DNG files are not visible without the chdkptp application, you have to remove the card and use the reader card.
