The Version in the attachment "sx20-100f-0.9.9-1160-full.zip" i built with the following steps:
(...)
This changes i made "blindly". I can not test it.
So please test and try out this version and give me feedback how it works.

This version works very well for me. The only problem I could after some testing is that the camera just turns off sometimes, but I can't find any pattern. This problem existed with older CHDK builds as well.

Thanks for your test report. Sounds fine to me.

I know only one sequence which produce this error you described: Try to shoot a picture while making a movie with the cam.

Well... i think you are going to test more... and maybe you find some more "pattern".

Actually this works fine for me. But I'll try to find a way to reproduce the problem if it occurs again.

This is a request to SX20 developers:
Please tell 1.00f users what kind of additional testing is needed/required in order to make the 1.00f beta release a stable one and published also in the autobuild download section.

Thanks in advance
Hello baxev2005

let's start with this test. ;-)
Now the files for 1.00f.


Thank you for your fast response. From my side I had an unexpected trip away home and only today I was able to read your answer. I already downloaded and testing

The function is found with a 100% match.

None at all right now. It's just putting some pieces in place.

No, it lets us find out how much heap the Canon firmware has free (and some other possibly useful statistics)
Don't forget what the H stands for.

I've also tested the release from here and it works (firmware 1.00f).

a) badpixels.bin generation works on camera, and I've created the other badpixels (standalone) file outside the camera. After setting info in the menu, it works.
b) grids work.
c) both histogram and the other that shows the overexposed areas work (I tested out of curiosity, since I do not use them anyway).
d) Fiddled around - all ok.
d) I've tested the ultra intervalometer script and made a short video here:

For me the most important feature is the bad pixels removal and it does the job.

PS: Not related to the firmware but to the Wiki pages. Some links to the show_bad.zip and show_bad_b.zip return a 404 - but if you type them directly - they work. This address for example:
Code: [Select]

Hello viulian
nice to hear that. :)

Nice Time Lapse: You wan't to give up smoking, and this was your last cigarette? ;)

If the final test results from jan, phaedra and baxev2005 are although fine i think we can mark the 1.00f as stable and reyalp (or other admin) can check in the patch.
