Ouch, I didn't even care to check, assuming it were still there! So, nx1 could be incapable of silent shooting at all

That is really pitty. However - there is "burst" option in ST menu (beside "continuous") so it is clearly something which is not present in NX1 menu. So maybe someone could activate this "burst" mode somehow and it could help to find way to silent shooting in NX1 (maybe I am dreaming now)

Did you try: st cap capdtm setusr ADJUSTSHUTTERTYPE 0x750001
?

(I know the ID number is not declared there, but you can set user values the the type-name too.)

for the 30fps burst rate, try:

[root@drime5 ~]# st cap capdtm setusr BURSTRATE 0xb0000 4
UserData is set
[root@drime5 ~]# st cap capdtm getusr BURSTRATE
UserData is BURSTRATE_RATE30FPS (0xb0000)

(it it doesn't commit, try opening the menu, and looking the the burst mode, not changing anything, and closing the menu - in some cases, some dance is needed before commuting)

There is an internal setting on the NX1 for burst but it hasn't been implemented.

If you look at the drive options using st cap capdtm then you can set it to burst but it gets reset back to single drive when you take a shot.

Here is an extract from my telnet session:

UserData is DRIVE_CONTILOW (0x90004)
[root@drime5 ~]# st cap capdtm setusr DRIVE 0x00090005
UserData is set
[root@drime5 ~]# st cap capdtm getusr 9
UserData is DRIVE_BURST (0x90005)

I pressed the shuter key and checked the alue

[root@drime5 ~]# st cap capdtm getusr 9
UserData is DRIVE_SINGLE (0x90001)

I tried saving the parameter with orefman save but this just reverted back to single drive.

You can also set the burst rate this way as you described but to be able to use the burst mode you somehow need to get the camera to keep the Burst drive mode change
