Wow ! thanks for making a new version, it is really great to use these scripts with new
updates and for our feedback to be acted upon so quickly - I will try out the new version out this morning.

I would suggest a quick test in a dark environment just to see if it fixes the problem
Don't forget what the H stands for.

Hi, thanks for a great script. Been started to play around with it with some of my point and shoot-canons. However can't seem to get any for the "Display blanking modes" to work -- screen stays on all the time. Has anyone else encountered this problem?

Old script - the display blanking mode options do not include the recently added CHDK set_lcd_display( ) function.

Recently being 2013-10-2   :haha

Of the three available functions, only the first  ( BKlite ) is going to work with recent cameras.  The other two use functionality that Canon dropped maybe 10 years ago.

Sorry. 

BKlite should work for you but IIRC it takes a little time before it kicks in.

Old script still going strong  :D

Thank you for the fast replay. BKlite worked fine, just me needed to be a pit more patient.

I suppose the script could be updated to use set_LCD_display( ) as well - the battery savings are better (think 15% or so - not hours into days).   Which would take me down a slippery slope of other things of course. 

If you just want to hack the display modes,  replace line 105 

Code: [Select]
set_backlight(1)
with

Code: [Select]
set_lcd_display(1)
and  line 293

Code: [Select]
set_backlight(m)
with

Code: [Select]
set_lcd_display(m)
