I've made it for my ELPH 100 HS (IXUS 115 HS), but it should work on another cameras too. Have fun! :)

Thanks!
But didn't work on my Ixus 115 HS...   :blink: did that work on yours?
It just focuses but doesn't click...

I'd like to suggest one small change that you might like to try.  Instead of

Code: [Select]
...
 press "shoot_full"
   if n=a then end
 release "shoot_full"
...


Code: [Select]
...
 press "shoot_full_only"
   if n=a then end
 release "shoot_full_only"
...

This should better maintain the exposure and focus lock you set in an earlier section of the script.   Of coarse you will need to change the program logic a bit for the case where you want autofocus on.

@sarkar, yes, it works on my 100 hs :) I think, chdk for our camera isn't too stable, so sometimes the script may not work properly. just restart your camera and start the script again.
@waterwingz, thanks. i'm a little busy now, so i'll make some changes these days.

it seems, that with WW's recommendation the script works better. i've also added one more fix.

Thank you for posting this script, however, I think there may be a small fix needed.
You have
Code: [Select]
t=(b*600+c*10+d*60+e)*100
I would propose that it should be

Code: [Select]
t=(b*60+c+d*600+e*10)*1000
It seems like your  minutes x10 is actually 0.1 minutes and the same issue with your second x10. This should fix it.

I also changed the end of your script to this

Code: [Select]
release "shoot_full_only"
   sleep 10000
   set_backlight 0
   sleep t-10000
   goto "off"
I don't plan on doing intervals shorter than 10s and this should save some battery. Just a suggestion for making it an option
