Anyway, the video limit removal works well, I went up to 16 min before the 4GB size limit was reached. I've only seen one issue so far: the "Video without Timelimit" parameter defaults to false and doesn't save, so I have to set it to true every time I turn the camera on.
It is not a bug, read this:  http://chdk.setepontos.com/index.php?topic=7889.msg90251#msg90251

It would be interesting to see data on that - has anyone tracked sensor temperature against time ?  I'd be surprise to find out that the sensor temperature rises much after the first few minute of shooting ...

Hi.. I am new here.. I downloaded the Firmware for Ixus 230 HS and copied them on the SD card..
But how do I boot it? I want to try the Firmware update http://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/%22firmware_update_method%22 method first. I dont want it to always start in CHDK. But there is no Firmware update option in the menu!
Please help.

When you say "copied" do you mean that you "unzipped" the distribution file to the SD card or you just copied the whole thing over ?   Is there a file named ps.fi2 in the top directory on your SD card ?   How did you determine which firmware version to use ?

This page can be useful : http://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/Prepare_your_SD_card

I used ACID to check the firmware. Had made a mistake. By mistake had downloaded 100e instead of 100b which is my camera's firmware version :P
Everything is working fine now. Thank you.  :)

I want to give a special "public" shout-out to nafraf for his great work and persistence in getting the 1.00a port out and doing some significant clean-up on 1.00b and e. As you can see from my post way up at the top of this thread I have been waiting 10 months to get CHDK on my 1.00a Elph 310 and had pretty much given up hope weeks ago. Then between Sept. 22 and Oct. 1 nafraf worked up at least 15 alpha ports for me and others to test. When we were cleaning up zebra and edge overlay he was making 2 or 3 adjustments a day for testing. It was hard for me to keep up!

Then I find out he's doing the same thing for several other Powershot models! :o

nafraf - THANKS!! You are an amazing asset to the CHDK community.

(and, of course, many thanks to reyalp, waterwingz, fe50 and the other gurus who share their in-depth knowledge and are keeping this whole thing rolling along so smoothly.)

From this thread: http://chdk.setepontos.com/index.php?topic=11129.10 it appears this camera has very little free memory.

I see commented out
#override OPT_EXMEM_MALLOC=1
#override OPT_CHDK_IN_EXMEM=1

in the makefile.inc but skimming back of over the thread I'm not sure if the values are correct, or anyone tried it.
Don't forget what the H stands for.

How to explain...  :xmas Aligned to Ix255-265 now in a move ... done.

Edit: Menues, file_browser, md_detect all fine, [!]edi.lua scrolls smooth.
Via Firmware Update I found, that the palettes could be prittified...  :-*
Edit2: Free memory is actually 515520 Bytes, CHDK-size 139760.
Edit3: // no need to retry on Ix220, (would work on cam), but HardwareError E41 in all cases, when&however connecting >:( USB.
