Just tried the call_event_proc("PTM_SetCurrentItem",0x8021,3) (focus mode = "infinity") that simply shuts down my camera ...
Don't set IDs that are not for your camera, 0x8021 is focus mode for the a3200, yours is very likely different.

Thanks again nafraf.
This ID works fine. It sets the camera to distant subjects focus range (the mountains icon is correctly displayed), but the ixus 125 keeps focusing despite of it, and, if nothing detected, farer subjects are blurred.
I'm looking for for a "set_fous=65535" equivalent. The CHDK SD override doesn't work on ixus 125.
Sorry for misunderstanding due to my bad English.

Have you tried doing a set_aflock(1) before calling that ?

Doesn't work either.
This damn camera doesn't like any known SD override. It returns 5 with get_sd_over_modes()  :'(

Sorry for the long OT, guys. But this thing is driving me nuts.

No Canon compacts offer a real infinity setting (AFAIK). The PTM methods usually only allow settings that are available on the camera's user interface.

What about after calling it?  And don't forget you probably need to be P mode (or anything other than AUTO) when you try all this.

That's the right number based on the test results reported when we were going through all that.  In your case, the camera responds to SD overrides but IIRC will not focus out past about 2m in any mode.

Sure as hell. Just experimented by myself.

Tryed the set_aflock(1) before and after the call. My cam is stuck on P mode. CHDK fans don't like AUTO things :)
