Hi,

is there any way to set date and time of the camera? I think this is the OS date/time.
I looked for lua functions but only found get_time.

I need a way (I prefer C++) to set the date and time of the camera using CHDK.

Thanks...

A little bit of search in the forum can help sometimes. See How to set camera time with scripts "lua or uBasic"?.

Off topic but searching is much easier if you use google rather than the forum search engine. Just add a little bit to the start of your google search string to limit it to forum entries. e.g. :

Code: [Select]

Hi,

I did a search in advance on google and here but could not find anything. May I used different key words.
Anyway thanks to both of you, that helped, especially the tip limiting googles search by a certain site!

Thanks a lot!
