When the dial is on movie mode the idle movie status is also 6 sometimes

Interesting, thanks for that.

I've been working on a wiki page for this. Those are usually easier to search than the forum. Here's a link to the draft > http://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/User:Waterwingz/Continuous_Video

I think, the wiki script is not quite correct.

The time is measured in ms (get_tick_count) and the parameter x is given in seconds. Insert x=x*1000 at the beginning should solve the problem.

And a little bit cosmetic: print "time left:", (x-t)/1000, "s"

Thanks msl. The reason that page was still a "user page" is that I had not tested the script. I'll roll in your changes and actually test it this weekend.

Thanks @waterwingz. How'd the changes shake out?

1st off, I am a newbie so be gentle

I was looking for a way to workaround the 30 minute video time limit (4GB FAT32) on my S95 when I stumbled across CHDK... very cool.

I have managed to verify my FW, load the CHDK, and play around with it a bit including a few of the stock scripts.

Problem is, I cannot find a working script for continuous video for the S95 & I am far from a coder... I have tried both scripts here: http://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/Continuous_Video as well as some in various message threads.

I get this:
*** STARTED ***
*** FINISHED ***
uBasic: 1 Unk stmt

Anyone have any tips? Or is there a script out there I have overlooked? Or better yet can someone make edits to the BSA script above to work with the S95?

Appreciate the help!

Eric - that message means there's an error in line 1 of the script. By far the most llkely reason is that you have not copied the script to the card correctly. The script file MUST BE A PLAIN TEXT file, with standard DOS line feeds and or carriage returns at the end of each line.

Make sure you save the file to the card using a simple text editor (e.g. NotePad on Windows) as an ANSI file. Don't use any sort of Word Processor, or save it as anything but simple text.

@Waterwingz, noted. I will stick to the topic I created and leave the other 2 alone... sorry for the churn.

Hello,
I am a newbie, just installed the CHDK, and loaded successfully the script created by Vash11779. I does great job indeed!

However I have an issue, is it possible, after creating the new file, and restarting video recording, to turn automatically the LCD back light off?

Thaks,
