outslider i modifed your code a little bit and am testing it now if it doesn't work however i think it would be better to let someone who know programming better than both of us handle it'


okay the modified code didnt work heres what i tried

f=1
:loop
print "file",f
shoot
if f=f+1
else goto loop


this idea   might be a little tricker but would it be possible to convert the one of the other two video settings mode to record using the HD settings that might work as well

Hello all,
I'm looking at the 130is - I want something better than my A590IS. Can anyone test their 130is for me to see its aperture capabilities, shutter capabilities and ISO capabilities? There are a lot are posted here: http://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/CameraFeatures
Thanks!

Ok, Vash, I solved the problem. Here's the script:

Code: [Select]
@title MultiMovie
@param x one part time in sec
@default x 590

f=0

print "record will start..."

press "shoot_half"
sleep 1500
:new
f=f+1
press "shoot_full"
release "shoot_full"
if f=1 then release "shoot_half"

print "file number: ";f

s=get_time 0
m=get_time 1
h=get_time 2
d=get_time 3
b=s+m*60+h*3600+d*3600*24

:loop
s=get_time 0
m=get_time 1
h=get_time 2
d=get_time 3
t=s+m*60+h*3600+d*3600*24
u=t-b
print "file number: ";f
print "time left:";x-u
if u>x then goto "reload"
sleep 900
goto "loop"

:reload
print "reloading..."
press "shoot_full"
release "shoot_full"
print "waiting for ready..."
:waitloop
q=get_movie_status
if q=1 then goto "new"
print "status:",q
sleep 100
goto "waitloop"

Maybe it's dirty, but works at least.

Some info:

590 seconds for each part (file) means 9:50 minutes. It's enough ant the best time for me. But while using other than HD qualities, it might be larger, I didn't try that.

(edit) If you like to ask me: it's uBASIC;p (/edit)

The problems:
- zoom is not implemented here. I'll repair  this some day.
- 2-3 seconds delay between parts is needed, since the camera has to write the movie to SD. This can't be repaired:/ ("It's not a bug, it's a feature;p)
(edit)
-it might (means: "should") crash while recording in the last day of a month around midnight, since I don't use month number in calculations... It's rather rare situation, but... who knows!
(/edit)

Forgive me, if i shouldn't post it here, maybe better idea is post this on scripts thread, but it was asked here.

Anything other than .lua is treated as ubasic, but .bas is recommended to reduce confusion.
Don't forget what the H stands for.

I've just tried this version (225) and it works fine for me generally apart from the fact that while it will take RAW photos, it will not open these. Not sure if i'm doing something stupid or not, i've tried opening them in Picassa which should open these I believe?

@ali555

I also tried opene these CHDK raws, but still I don't really know how to do that. The problem is, that CHDK RAW is not really some kind of 'normal' raw format, it's just like a dump from camera sensors, I believe.

Now I use DNG format, most of programs opens DNG, such as Raw Therapee, UFRaw, F-Spot and so on. I recomend you to enable DNG in your CHDK menu and enjoy raws this way:)
