Low Disk Space Percent Threshold - Triggers Alert if free disk space is less than this (in percent)
Enable Low Voltage Alert - 1 means it will alert you. Any other number means off.

It doesnt work in my Powershoot S95. It says "not in video mode" when I hit the shutter (I'm in video mode). Any idea?

Thanks.

Go into the Miscellaneous stuff --> Debug parameters menu.
Set Debug data display to Props
Set PropCase/ParamsData page to 4

Post the value in property 49 when the mode dial is set to video.

Hi Phil, the property 49 shows "2614".

Thanks, that doesn't match what's in the code which is why it's not detecting video mode.

Can you get the property 49 values for the 'Color Accent' and 'Color Swap' video modes and tell me which firmware version you have.

I'll update the code with the values and post a test version.

Phil.

The property 49 is 2614 for the 'Color Accent' and 'Color Swap' video modes.

I've CHDK Ver. 0.9.9-1204 from s95-100k-0.9.9-1218-full_BETA

Try this version. If it works I'll submit a patch for the autobuild server.
