1/2500 is much longer, than limit. I tried even 1/20 000 and it gave different darkness than 1/10 000 for example. So we can use very high-speed shutter as for P&S camera;)

Has anyone tried playing around with the video settings with this camera?
I would appreciate if someone who has the technical know-how, to make this video script work with the SX130IS:  http://chdk.setepontos.com/index.php?topic=6113.0
I think this is the thread that caused the creation of the thread I posted: http://chdk.setepontos.com/index.php?topic=5295.45

Quality 80 seems to be relatively stable for me, 85 is hit and miss.

RAW:
so, i've been trying to open the RAW files with Photoshop CS5, but every time i do, i get the message
"could not complete your request because it is not the right kind of document"
i've tried a couple different RAW settings on the CHDK, but to no avail. anyone have any insight as to what parameters need to be fulfilled to make it work, so i can finally start editing my RAWs? i sure would love to make this work. thanks for your input.

The best idea is to use DNG format (in RAW menu). Probably you'll get message like "Need to create badpixel.bin". There is appropriate menu item to do so. Try to figure out this and post if you got it.

This is probably the most common question people ask on this forum once they have succeeded in getting CHDK to load and run.   CHDK RAW files are not the same thing as the RAW or CR2 files produced on DSLDR and higher end P&S cameras.  They are simply a dump of the raw information directly from the camera sensor.   They contain no format or size information to tell a PC software package how to interpret the information they contain.

Having said that, some PC software packages can guess the layout on the sensor information in the file based on the file's size if the author of that package has been informed that a new CHDK port has been released  and told of the file format.

Until that happens, outslider's advice is the best path forward as DNG format files contain the information necessary for PC software to interpret the image data.

thanks for such a detailed response. it was filled with potentially useful thoughts and info. unfortunately, it still hasn't solved my problem. i downloaded a few of the converter programs, and when i tried to import a file, all 3 said, more or less, the same thing as Photoshop did.  so i gotta wonder if somehow i'm doing something wrong with those programs (which seems unlikely, as there's not much to "do" with them), or if maybe i need to set my RAW parameters a certain way, or something else, which i have no idea of what. i also read through the 3 pages of the CHDK & RAW, the beginners thread, and there's something about badpixel.bin vs badpixel.something else, to change to DNG format, to make it work directly from the camera (no, wait... that was in a different thread, but for the same problem, but i did read through the aforementioned thread), or something, but so far, nothing is working. if anyone would give me some specific, detailed steps for to take, so i can use these RAW files i'm making, or to make them right in the first place, if i am indeed messing them up somehow, i would sure appreciate it. a little info about my RAW settings, in case that matters (and if you know, would you please tell me if it matters, either way? i'd just like to know), here they are:
RAW file prefix [CRW]
RAW file extension [.CR2]
Raw subtract prefix [CRW]
Raw subtract extension [.CR2]
Bad Pixel Removal [RAWconv]

that should do it. i await your helpful response(s)

P.S. also, if anyone knows if/where i can get scripts to let me shoot in timelapse, motion detecting, quick burst shooting, and any other fun/helpful stuff, that would be super too.

I believe that what the links I posted should have told you is that CHDK RAW does not work with most software that you can obtain unless its from an older camera that the software recognizes from the file extension and file size.

Short answer = no. You are probably not doing anything wrong.

i also read through the 3 pages of the CHDK & RAW, the beginners thread, and there's something about badpixel.bin vs badpixel.something else ...
that should do it. i await your helpful response(s)

Generally speaking,  the search function on this forum and (even better) on the CHDK wiki is a good place to start. Hint : keyword=script .

Noise Ninja camera Profiles:
I have created profiles for the SX 130IS at each ISO setting. I also made separate settings for DNG and JPG, because obviously the DNG (RAW) files have much more noise in them. They might not be perfect, but I feel they work better than the auto-profiler. (The authors of the program recommend making a profile).

Enjoy:
Noise profiles for:
DNG:  ISO 50, ISO 80, ISO 100, ISO 200, ISO 400, ISO 800, ISO 1600
JPG:   ISO 50, ISO 80, ISO 100, ISO 200, ISO 400, ISO 800, ISO 1600 and the special low light mode at ISO 2500 (I'll have to get around to doing a few more settings up to ISO 6400).

http://www50.zippyshare.com/v/22448535/file.html

I get good results by not using any sharpening/noise reduction in Camera Raw, and leave it all to be done by Noise Ninja. After applying the profile, default noise reduction settings ("Turbo" and "Course Noise" off) and sharpening ("USM amount") set to 150.

PS: Great job with the video bladyle... as well as everyone else who has put in effort for CHDK   :)

My SX130 can do 3fps in low light mode  1600x1200 2M only . but not others mode, wonder if I can use CMDK to limited to ISO 80 in low light mode so I can have faster and better picture @ the same time, and the most important to check with ppl if they can make 3fps working beside "low light mode". thanks
