G10 motion detection settings help
« on: 25 / February / 2012, 05:05:30 »

Hi, I've been using chdk for a year or so now on an A480 and now a G10. Although I use mainly time lapse scripts, I thought I would try out motion detection. The problem is, when I activate the script, the camera only takes one picture and then say's finished. Where am I going wrong? I must be missing something really obvious but it's driving me mad. Also have the same thing with the A480.
Any advice welcome!

Hello & welcome !

...when I activate the script, the camera only takes one picture and then say's finished.
I guess you are using the md.bas sample script which is included in the CHDK full dl package ?
This MD sample is designed this way, it just takes one image after motion is detected...

I suggest to use "Fast MD with burst/preview mode" (file MDFB-080914.zip) by fudgey:
