Hello,
I'm a french student, i discovered CHDK last week. I'm actually working on a project where i need to control an IXUS 220 HS with computer (in order to take photos and download them). And i need your help
.
So i looked for some way to control the camera using USB command and i found PTP protocol. I wanted to use ptpcam or chdkptp, then i downloaded binaries and try to connect my camera to the PC using the USB wire. It appears that, as soon as i connect the camera to the PC the camera screen becomes black and the camera lens close.
However, the connection with ptpcam or chdkptp works and i can download photos from the camera to the PC. But i can't take photos, the camera lens stay close.
With chdkptp the error is :
"error initializing live streaming: api is not compatible" Does anybody know if it's possible to take photos using chdkptp with an IXUS 220 HS ?
Thank you for your help !
CHDK version : CHDK-DE 1.1.0 Revision : 994
Camera : ixus220_elph300hs
Firmware version : 101g
PS : I hope that i'm posting in the right place, sorry if it's not.
