How about controlling sx40 with android phone. We know that PTP camera GUI can control camera using USB then it possible to develop a android app to control camera also.
There has been a little discussion about this on the CHDK irc channel.   FWIW, if you were to make such an app, it would work with any CHDK camera.  However, it will probably not work with many phones as they are not capable of being USB hosts (as noted in the link you posted).

The Android solution appears to be a bluetooth->USB bridge.  The software wouldn't be applicable, but the hardware could be:

Other than disabling it and forcing a manual focus distance...  does CHDK have any hooks into the autofocus routine?  I often use the SX40 at full telephoto minimum focus distance for backyard birding and the like.  It has this annoying (even if understandable) habit of focusing on the background that is perhaps 20 feet away while the subject is 6 feet or so.  A focus limiter function would be a tremendous addition to the already awesome (thank you so much for all the work!) software.  Unless it's already there and I just didn't look hard enough...

I do not believe it does.

Good news and bad news:

The SX40HS + Motion script I referenced earlier works if you use the DEFAULTS.

If you try to make it take continuous pictures ( I put it to 2-3 seconds ) so any movement took 3 pictures for each event, the camera shuts off and it leaves the lens extended.

Again, is there anything I can do to help debug this issue?

Note, the SX30IS works fine with any type of setting, continuous or not.

Does it crash straight away or only after extended use like before?

Is the crashdump (ROMLOG.LOG) the same?

So far I have not been able to reproduce any of the crashes you are getting.

Can you zip up the contents of the SD card you are using on the SX40 (without any pictures) and post it here so I can see exactly what CHDK and script settings you have. Also post all the Canon camera settings you are using.

It crashes after extended use (anywhere from 5 min++), I will try to make it crash by walking in front of it etc so I can gather a crashdump.
I recorded a video of the screen this time from another camera and this is what it showed before it shutdown(!):
http://home.comcast.net/~jpiszcz/20120810/camera-takes-picture-lens-retracts-and-this-error-is-displayed.JPG
In the instance above, it did retract in that case, but it does not always retract properly/etc.

>> Is the crashdump (ROMLOG.LOG) the same?
I am not sure, will pull this down and upload it as soon as it crashes.
It is posted at the bottom of this reply, it is also located here:
http://home.comcast.net/~jpiszcz/20120810/ROMLOG.LOG

>> So far I have not been able to reproduce any of the crashes you are getting.
Interesting, its a stock SX40HS and I have even reset all to the defaults, its when I set to continuous shooting that I see the problem (at least most recently).
I will reproduce the problem then take pictures of each settings page then maybe you would be able to re-produce it, is it possible that this bug is only present in the 'I' firmware, e.g., have there been certain firmwares that have experienced problems while other versions remain unaffected?

Here are my settings:

Yes, it is here (2.6M): (The actual settings though are in the pictures I took as I had set this back to normal (DEFAULTS) prior to dumping the card, the only thing I changed is mentioned below the URL:
http://home.comcast.net/~jpiszcz/20120810/chdk-sdhc-card-dump.zip

What was changed:
1) Set continuous shooting (the option in the middle for the regular canon/software)
2) I changed the parameters for the motion script (loaded from CHDK) as shown in the pictures below:

Can you try it with a normal SD card, rather than an Eye-Fi card.

I've had it running on my camera for 15 minutes with your CHDK config and camera settings without any issues.
Pointed the camera at my monitor so every time I do something it takes photos.

The Eye-Fi card is the only major difference I can think of at this stage.

So far I've been using the Eye-Fi (for the past 24hr+) with the default settings and there are no errors.
The next time I test it (change settings) I'll test on a different card and update here, thanks.

Hi, guys.

theres no way to make RAW(DNG) visible via USB.

the second issue is that all CHDK icons and information are atop so as camera ones. And we've got a heap of useless garbage at one side of the display and the only way to fix it is turn off all chdk info.
