i think it's a problem of your computer, as told stuttering has nothing to do with the frame rate.
By the way it's off topic here, try in the dpreview forum (canon section).

I decided to try to change the ALT menu button just to DISP and seems to be better than the combination disp+set. Now the tricky part is when you want to access an original canon function that requires the DISP button, you have to hold the DISP button (in My Custom Colors, Miniature Effect, ...).

Mmmhhh..if this is the only change, I will stick with beta 7. I do not frequently need the CHDK menu because I already configured the settings. But I frequently need the DISP button. Therefore, it's probably more burdensome to frequently hold the DISP button (compared to rarely pressing DISP + SET)?

It seems to me that the distance indicator is indeed weird (as reported above). But I am not sure whether this has anything to do with CHDK.

I don't understand what you mean. Which distance indicator?

I configured the camera in a way that the misc menu shows z (zoom?), sd (subject distance?), NL, FL, and HYP. When I focus on a subject, SD is not constant (i.e., if I focus again on the same subject there are significant variations).

For me jumps at .292 +/- .008 when auto refocusing. Sometimes fails at longer distances and jumps from 1.64 to 0.7 but rarely. I don't see anything wrong here.

I'm also curious... is this the only change?

There was also a wrong address in stubs_min.S for levent_table, only in the 101a version.

In the next build I will make the ALT button customizable so you can choose between disp+set, disp, or video(play) button. I'm just testing this right now and I like having it on the video button. I personally don't like the disp+set because a lot of times I unintentionaly enable raw.

Nice! I have the 100 version so for now I will stick with the beta 7. Works fine for me.

Is there anything on your list that needs to be done in order to make the last beta final?

Btw....is it possible to not save any .jpgs at all (just RAWs)? If yes: does this result in a speed increase and might allow for a burst of 3 RAW images (in burst mode)?
