Thanks for the 7-Zip .. I didn't know. Now I see a relatively clean live view in the correct A/R. Interesting. How good it is will be of importance later when we chat in CHILL OUT.
So after our intermission of the last few days, I can get back to the original task, start a new topic, and begin by posting some comparison images with RemoteCapture later today.
The test bed is a 2 GHz machine (not 1 GHz). I am getting 2.7 fps, unchanged from the stock version. Thus the main bottleneck is most likely to be USB 1.0. CPU load is under 5-6% (CD-enabled CHDKPTP is the only app running). The *great* news is that CPU is up just a bit from 3-4% with the stock CHDKPTP.
Wonderful job // very impressive! Also, I hope my contribution will positively affect other builds, not just the SX110.
