Hello & welcome tomas21 !
Is there any way to disable playback mode as the default on SD870 once CHDK is enabled?
You can use the
script autostart to start a small script on power on; in such a script you can set up also settings you always want to have after you power on the camera, e.g. the continuous mode...
You can try this script (download the attachement, file
start.bas, you must bee loged in to see it):
@title SD870 Bootup
if autostarted = 0 then goto "Exit"
if get_drive_mode = 0 then
click "shoot_half"
sleep 900
endif
:Exit
cls
exit_alt
end
To enabled the autostart feature, load the script in the CHDK script menu, set
Autostart to ON.
When you power on your camera, this script emulates a short half-press to the shutter button, then it leaves the <Alt> mode.
This way your camera switches to record mode, then you can start your photo session directly...
