There are two parts to this change:

The function get_playback_filename() declared in platform.h, which returns the file name of the currently viewed item.
The memory search program which looks for the address of the playback file name. You trigger this by the new menu item "Debug parameters -> Memory browser", and it loops through the memory, searching for a hard coded string.

Code: [Select]

One potential improvement is to store the search string in a file instead of hard code it. That way if you don't need to recompile if you want to look for a different string. But I figured that if you are looking for memory addresses, you are very likely to be a programmer, so recompiling shouldn't be a big deal.

Using the memory search program, I found two useful addresses: one for the playback filename, one for the corresponding thumbnail. I only added get_playback_filename(), and I can add one for the thumbnail as well, if there is interest.

Please let me know what you think. Thanks!

looked into this (and My modifications to CHDK), i think i will integrate this some day into the branch. the possible use would definitly be in ubasic: for playback you can now check if there is an avi or a jpg shown. this will allow to finally have extended slideshow features and automatic video playback (doesnt work on a620 for example). also cyril42e's features stand out in a great fashion, as he already utilizes his finding in a nice function.

however, finding the right adresses for other cameras will be very difficult, since these adresses are stored in ram. your function to find the adresses sure is a nice way for experienced coders, but the average guy wont be able to use it (btw, cant you just compare the string to *.jpg instead of a distinct jpg? this way you dont need to hardwire a string). maybe some skilled ASM guys (ewavr?

) can find a generic way to get all the needed adresses via the dumps & IDA.

Interesting idea to look for *.JPG instead of the actual file name. I searched for a movie because that way I can tell the file name address vs thumbnail address. I can change it to look for *.AVI instead.

Hi,

I've been using chiuki's code to search for "A/DCIM". When I find it I write out the entire string at that address.

Code: [Select]

    for (addr = START_ADDRESS; addr < END_ADDRESS; addr += 0x1) {
     if (memcmp(search_string, addr, len) == 0) {
      sprintf(buf, "0x%08X %-30s", addr, addr);
      draw_txt_string(X_POSITION, y, buf, OUTPUT_COLOR);
      found = 1;
      y = y + 1;
     }
    }

On my A570is and A720is there seem to be two places that always hold the filename of the current image and 5-6 other places that hold filenames of nearby images. My guess is that the second area is a stash of images read into ram either previously or anticipated to be viewed.

One thing that I did not find was a directory for all the images on disk.

Jon
