Slow picture saving speed

Hello all
First a big thanks for this custom firmware! It gave my Ixus 960 a new life :)
I do have one problem (so far) though. The firmware is loaded by hand through the Play - Menu - Upd. Firm. option.
I changed one option, I fixed the shutter speed to 1/100s.
If I take now a Picture the Pictbridge button turns for some 6-7 seconds blue and then Shows the Image I've taken. This delay doesn't happen if CHDK isn't loaded.
I'm using the latest final from today.
Any ideas?
Thanks
pato

Hi,
you have accidentally enabled RAW. See the keyboard shortcuts in the (somewhat outdated) manual: http://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/CHDK_User_Manual
You can disable RAW in the "RAW parameters" menu.

Silly me, I thought I had checked it  :blink:
It was indeed enabled, but I'm pretty sure I did not change this setting. Maybe it's enabled by default?
Anyway, it works now as it should :)

Unfortunately,  its fairly easy to enable RAW by accident if you happen to press the right keyboard shortcut while working with CHDK.

There has been some discussion about allowing keyboard shortcuts to be disabled, or even to be user configurable,  but that project has not been taken on by anyone.

Oh I see. Thanks, that probably explains it as I was testing out every button while in ALT mode :)
