seems there is still a bug somewhere,

it keeps mentioning i need to be in REC mode, while im in shoot mode, guess something is set wrong :(

I imagine there will be many bugs to iron out - hopefully since it's running now things will progress.
It's late for me here, off to get some sleep - the code for the changes I made is in the previous post, in case waterwingz has some time to investigate.

At first I used a SanDisk EXTREME III. Now , with a extrememory PREMIUM , its the same like simon96.
CHDK screen for 3 sec. and leds (green, orange) are flashing but the cam dont start.
This is the second time in two weeks somebody has had trouble booting with a particular SD card.  Too soon to say if its related to the speed - fastest cards that I have are Class 4 and your SanDisk is a class 6.  Something for us to keep an eye on though.

also getting the CHDK menu now, also in p&s mode, the menu however keeps disappearing at times, when i press up/ down and such it reappears.
This is unfortunately seems to be normal in all ports of CHDK when you are in shooting mode. The Canon coded does not really support having foreign tasks writing to the screen - or at least nobody has figured out a good way to do that.

Super. I have to push the play button, thann the power button, than the play button again and the menu button, than CHDK shows all settings.
There is code in boot.c - currently commented out - that addresses the handling of the on/off switch.  I left it commented out so as not to risk introducing an additional source of errors.  Once other things settle we can try enabling it too.

Wow, definitely better than Version 4!

No shutting down or crashing whatsoever.
Menu appears in playback and in shoot mode.
Noticed some slight cases of menu disappearance while scrolling but it reappears if one keeps on scrolling.
Managed to show up some debug information in live view, however showing histogram data failed.
Saving RAW data seems to work.

GOOD WORK SO FAR!

So maybe now we should prioritize and work topically. So we can all focus on the same things at the same time.

Once again MANY THANKS FOR YOUR EFFORTS, philmoz and waterwingz!!!

Looks like philmoz and I are both headed into a busy period for the next couple of weeks. Albeit on opposite sides of the globe.  

To make things not come to a complete halt,  I have a couple of requests.

1) Tell us what works.   Like RAW & DNG.  Post a list of things you have tested.
2) Tell us what does not work.  Please be specific about the steps you followed and what happened.  There is no length limit on what you are allowed to type in this forum.

Oh,  and the menus disappearing when the background image changes (i.e. in shooting mode when you move the camera) is normal - there is currently nothing that can be done about that.   Just use the up/down key to restore them.

Also,  if anybody has a 1.00c camera, or any other firmware version,  we need an 8G dump before we can go any farther supporting that.  Lots of info on how to do that in this forum thread or over at the wiki.  Post here if you need help.

I seem to have some problems using the HDR bracketing inside CHDK.

When camera is put on continious, and the EV is set to 2, both +- it keeps making very bright pictures, and doesnt use the -2 0 part.

Can anyone confirm?
