Hello & welcome, jason !
I have searched the forum and can't seem to find out how to get the script onto the sd card. I found the scripts and it says to download then and then transfer then to the sd card. But i can't download the script inside the box.. why??
a) CHDK scripts are ordinary
plain text files, you can save the script text with an text editor as text file.
b) On Windows you can use the Notepad, use .txt format and
ANSI as coding type (NOT UTF or Unicode !)
c) There are 2 different scripting languages: uBasic and Lua; the filename extension should be
.bas for uBasic scripts and
.luaa for Lua ones.
d) Place the script files in the
\CHDK\SCRIPTS folder on your memory card, the CHDK script selection dialog shows this folder by default.
e) Newer cameras (with the DryOS operation system) only shows "short" filenames (old DOS 8.3 style); so it may be helpful to use at most 8 characters if you own such a camera, otherwise you'll see a shortened version like SAMPLE~1.BAS...
