Does the auto-loading of firmware works on cards bigger than 4gb (eg 16gb)?

The sx260 was released in 2011 so it should.

Good work! Just checked and it's working (manual hex-editing), but very slow with raw enabled (have to test it more).

Additionally after taking two HDR's I couldn't enter menu again - had to turn off/on camera.

BTW. Anyone to build 1.1 version? ;-)

I've been testing beta4 for a while (can't get beta5 going), and I've noticed that even while not running CHDK, the manual focus often doesn't work - pointing at an object at infinity, focussing then switching to manual focus often shows anything between 20cm and 5m, rather than infinity.  Trying to then manually focus to infinity results in blurred images.  I'm not sure if it was doing this before I started using CHDK (I loaded it almost as soon as I got the camera).  Anyone have any thoughts on whether it's even possible that CHDK could have permanently affected the manual focus calibration on the camera somehow?  I've had it crash a few times.

Hi developer,
I need some help for propset4.h definition. We don't have a alternative for '#if defined CAMERA_xxx' for that. The propcase value for PROPCASE_GPS is different to sx230.
Code: [Select]
#define PROPCASE_GPS                             359  //sx230
#define PROPCASE_GPS                             358  //sx260

The current patch isn't compatible to trunk (only PROPCASE_GPS static definition!).
Attention:
- 100c is untested!
- 100b basically tested

changes:
- user defined colors for play and rec, but not 'set menu'
- gps works generally
- code cleanup
- and same others

Thanks, rudi

I would say just make a new propset, copy propset4.h to propset5.h and change this value. It's quite common for a new dryos version to mean a new propset, even if the changes are small.
Don't forget what the H stands for.

I tested very basically 100c - it works, but for example:
- RAW recording is very slow
- after taking two HDR's I couldn't enter menu

OK, now with propset5.

@voyteckst
RAW size is more then 18MB! Test a other SD-card.

Hi all, I have a same experience like mcgd. I cant load beta 5 C by firmware update - not autoload.
I tried beta5 for 100c and got an error about an invalid file when doing the firmware update, so I think there may be a problem with this build.  I tried beta4 and that loaded fine - it's really coming along nicely!

It would be nice to have HDR with high speed 10fps

I think it was described somewhere earlier, that it can be only loaded using autoload.
