Hey it's free and it works. I'm used to wrestling with custom Android ROMs so this is all I ask.

I played with the motion detect a while back, but it reacted too slowly and I got pictures of pieces on the ground. Silent Shot was faster, but... pink dots. I tried the Audio Remote on my dad's 550D and have been wanting it ever since. I was this close to building an audio trigger out of the Arduino I got for xmas.

I turned on Audio Remote shoot for you with meters full time, works fine on 700D, hope it works for the 650D as well, here is the link. Also updated to latest ML source.

Wonderful! Thank you!

It was a bit fiddly. I eventually figured out I have to load the mlv modules and enable audio meters first, but I got it working and man am I going to have fun with this and my air rifle! For now I dedicate this frozen water balloon, dirty sink, rusty hammer, and on-camera flash to you:

[edit] I don't actually have to enable MLV Sound in the audio tab, but after switching on the camera I do have to display the audio tab once, otherwise the trigger meter thing just reads 0/10 no matter what I do.

It does work on the test version with audio meters, but wont be in the nightly builds because audio meters push the camera tasks to its limits so it is considered unstable, but working great on 700D and should work fine on yours too with beep task disabled, but not sure since I dont have 650D, on 700D disabling beep task is just enough to keep the camera stable in photo and movie mode and audio trigger works fine in both when meters are enabled. I can only share the version with you but it wont be allowed in nightly till someone with better skills can figure out the task issues.

Nice! Which build should I use? I tried the one you posted on jan 11 and the jan 8 nightly, but there's no mention of audio trigger in the Shoot tab, nor in the audio tab that shows up when I load the mlv modules.

I'm eagerly awaiting the audio trigger, and all this talk about audio meters has gotten my hopes up that the trigger function will follow naturally. I know better than to ask for an ETA, but is this something that's on the immediate roadmap at least?

I read something about a flash photo technically being a double exposure since there's the flash light and the ambient light. This got me thinking, is it possible to use different WB/Tint settings for the flash exposure to simulate a gel?
