I'm moving my thread over here from the main discussion line:
Hi, i've finally managed to try and install CHDK (ixus100_sd780-100c-0.9.9-885-full_BETA) on my SD780IS camera.
Everything seems to be working fine, i can access the menu, run scripts, etc. etc.
The problem is that when i try to shoot the camera focus and then freezes: the lens stays out but everything else seems to be turned off. I can get the camera to respond by power cycling or by pressing the display button (the camera seems to boot from scratch when i use the display button, showing the CHDK splash page).
Also, one thing i forgot to mention in the other thread: the vers.req and ver.req files don't work: either i'm pressing the wrong buttons (i doubt it) or something's not working correctly, all i can manage to get is the clock ticking.
Any idea on why is this happening and what can i do to solve the problem or help debugging?
To answer to Jason / HarpoMa:
The CHDK firmware i installed is 1.00C and i'm not in ALT mode when shooting, when in ALT mode i can see the scripts running correctly.
Thanks!
