On my G1X (1.00f):
    FTO = 0
    FMN = 10
    FMX = 290 (worst case seen after a number of tests)

So PAUSE_FOR_FILE_COUNTER should probably be set to 300 for the G1X.

Agreed, I've checked this in. Assuming FTO was usually 0, it should only wait when it actually needs to.

Sorry for the delay…..
I made two runs with my G1x 101a (20 pictures each).
Both runs show:

FTO = 0
FMN = 10
FMX = 350

No RAW File is missing.


Two runs with my S110 103a  (20 pictures each).
Both runs show:

FTO = 0
FMN = 20 on the first run, 10 on the second
FMX = 320

No RAW File is missing

Thanks. According to these, the pause should be even longer, maybe 400ms. I'm reluctant to set this too large in case the filecounter is sometimes already incremented, but the fact FTO is 0 suggests this is rare if it happens.

It's possible the time depends on some setting (SD card speed, shutter speed? ISO? capture mode?) but I wasn't able to see any pattern on the cameras I have.

Thanks.

This camera has PAUSE_FOR_FILE_COUNTER 320 already, so according your log it should be fine, but FWIW, this port has unresolved issues with the file counter and CHDK raw in continuous mode
previous discussion (unfortunately scattered over several threads)

http://chdk.setepontos.com/index.php?topic=11506.msg112937#msg112937
http://chdk.setepontos.com/index.php?topic=11527.0

Here's a build for sx230hs 101a with the same test code I posted for g1x and s110
https://app.box.com/s/wzbhggzjyih0b9ltx7yb1gl3bxb6v33a
If you can do the same test, maybe it will shed more light on the problem.

edit:
I posted a build for another outstanding patch for this camera in the porting thread http://chdk.setepontos.com/index.php?topic=6397.msg123888#msg123888

RAW + Continues mode does not work with SX230 (As you wrote above). Even not with the normal trunk.

The camera makes on picture and saves one raw without JPG. The RAW looks OK. The LED is blinking all the time, and the camera no longer reacts . I cannot turn it off even. After more than a minute then goes out by itself

Both runs show:

FTO = 0
FMN = 10
FMX = 350

No RAW File is missing.

When you have a chance please test the attached version for the G1X.

This removes the need for the PAUSE_FOR_FILE_COUNTER delay by moving the raw capture hook to a different task.

Note, this does not include reyalp's debug display as the code it was testing is no longer needed. Please test and make sure no RAW or DNG files are missing in continuous shooting mode.

I checked it 2 times with 20 pictures. No RAW is lost.

I had the impression that this version runs slower. But I haven’t really measured it. Can it be?
Then I would compare both version under same condition tomorrow again...

I haven't noticed any slowdown; let me know if it runs slower for you.

Hello Phil,

I compared your version with reyalp again. There is no difference in timing between. With both version I need about 3.2s per picture (JPG+RAW).

I normally use the canon RAW on G1x and S110. With Canon RAW + JPG the G1x needs about 1.7s per picture. That was the reason why I was confused…
