I have the a3100 1.00b firmware and would like to test the 1.00b version.  Thanks!

Current CHDK 1.1 build attached (use the bootable SD card method).
If possible, please test stability (try all possible "extra photo overrides", video overrides, zebra, histogram, ...), and report it. See also http://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/Testing

edit: buggy build removed

The zebra, histogram, osd, edge overlay, scripts seem to work fine so far. the fast ev switching seems to work okay.

However, I can't get most of the overrides such as shutter speed, nd filter, iso  to work.  It's been a couple years since I used chdk so it could be user error but I don't think so.  The TV value displays the normal value upon half press of the shutter instead of the override.  I don't know if that's normal behavior.  Raw enabled also didn't output any files.

Will keep testing tomorrow.

Not user error, there was a bug which made CHDK lose control over RAW and the photo overrides (for devs: loc <-> sub issue in capt_seq.c). New build attached.

edit:
There's one more thing to test: do the overrides work if you shoot by quickly fully pressing the shutter button (i.e. you shoot before the AF scan completes)?

No, that doesn't work, but it seems like it still gets some AF action in there even if I press as fast as possible.

Actually I'm not sure if you posted another build and meant for me to try it on that one (I tried it on the first one).  I only just saw your post.

Yes, there was a newer build attached to that post. I've reuploaded it to http://www.sendspace.com/file/gh2l9j .

The overrides work if I wait for the AF to finish but they don't work if I shoot quickly.

The attached build should take care of this issue. Please report if you find a problem with it.

If you're interested in a somewhat faster motion detection, and willing to test, let me know.

It seems like the overrides still do not work on quick shutter release.

I would try it, but outside of testing your build I have never used it.

Also, is it normal for the camera to report iso values other than what I specify?  ie iso 100 displays iso 160 in the info, 200 shows 320.
