This script is very much a proof-of-concept and probably not going to appear in the repos or a .deb until I figure out how to create a proper gui for it.

Zimon's suggestion is a good one. At the moment, I haven't found any specific API that can add EXIF information to the raw images. Need to increase my programming kung-fu first.

Gah! After this post, I will still need to post one more time before I have access to Private Messages. I wanted to move support requests off this thread to prevent clutter

Before continuing, note that the raw images taken are in the PNG format, not JPEG or RAW. JPEG is smaller but has more compression artifacts, and AFAIK the gstreamer API is not sufficiently low-level to be able to get RAWs from the camera (somebody can correct me on this technical point if I'm mistaken)

Anyway, try running the following in X Terminal..

• What is the exact output on the console once you run this script?
• Check the hdr folder, is there any file in there with the name raw-<some numbers>? This is actually a PNG image. When running ./bracket-auto.sh, there should be 3 such files generated in the /hdr/<date and time>/ folder.

Presently taking 3 images seem to be the "standard" of sorts and sufficient to create most HDR images, so I won't be increasing the amount of images captures. OTOH with some knowledge of ASH scripting (which is really similar to BASH scripting on desktop Linux), it is a trivial modification to take more than 3 pictures of varying EV by modifying the original scripts.
