Porting 1.00d
Canon PowerShot SD600 P-ID:311C NT Firmware Ver GM1.00D No Error Aug 25 2006 09:35:10
The firmware was dumped using udumper's vxworks/diskboot.bin. It can be found here
Beta 1
There IS a working Beta for 1.00d that has been ported! Most of the camera functions seem to work, with the exception of remote-control and Movie features. Testing is required (and encouraged!)
Porting 1.00a
Canon DIGITAL IXUS 60 P-ID:311C PAL Firmware Ver GM1.00A E18 Dec 8 2005 15:39:30
Firmware also dumped using udumper's vxworks/diskboot.bin. Can be found on zshare
Beta 1
There is now a working version for 1.00a!
Known issues
Reports by Ashberk:
- Sometimes the menu closes by itself (no idea why)
- In Zebra mode, the screen gets distorted randomly by single-channel color. Don't know if this is a desired behaviour
- On my Ixus 60, I usually can take pictures for a week or something (even with a no-name battery), but when CHDK is running (which runs great!), the battery is sucked out in about 1 hour! There must be some bug leading to a power loss. I can't imagine that processing alone is able to suck so much energy, there must be some kind of "short circuit" on some camera parts (like flash, shutter, or whatever). This way, I can't really use the toolkit for experimenting in the wild.
- Would be nice to have a menu point to leave the toolkit back for the original firmware without shutting down the camera
Reports by Bmwr re 1.00d:
- Confirming Ashberk -- battery disappears really quickly
- Live histogram doesn't work: histogram box just has a red dot in upper left corner.
Response by Ashberk:
* Maybe just the calculation based on battery voltage is not tuned correctly to determine battery percentage * I have no problems with live histogram, I see e.g. 4 overlayed histograms (rgb and white) in real time, even in video mode * I use version 1.00a
