When I installed it, it was an unstable build.  Within an hour, the problem surfaced and after a few more hours I posted here.  Since then it's been moved to "stable".  See my first post, I acknowledge that it was marked unstable.

Ah, thanks.  I'd expect changes to be listed, well, frankly, in the change log rather than having to pick through SVN.  Which I can't even find from the homepage.

I know and I have.  I think Rockbox is amazing.  So much functionality, on hardware the developers likely don't have official documentation for is astounding.  I've even donated previously because I think the project is an accomplishment and deserves all the support it can get.

How do you know capping isn't exactly what the OF is doing?

nexekho:
I didn't notice any brightness difference between OF and Rockbox pre-cap, but that doesn't say much as it's hard to compare.  Maybe it might be worth someone with a device on which it works and a camera with custom exposure settings load a blank photo in OF at full brightness in a dark room and then find the equivalent in Rockbox to be sure.

It was listed on the front page (http://www.rockbox.org/) when it was first added. As the change was made months ago, you now need to scroll down to the SVN section (http://www.rockbox.org/recent.shtml#svn) and click the link for "all commits since last release" (http://www.rockbox.org/since-release.html).
