Daytime Interval also applies to night time recording #178

Hi Thomas,

if I set a longer daytime recording delay between images for weather camera purposes through the web GUI, it seems to also use that one for night time recording. (I am however not sure I am running the latest version of your project, because I added dew control to my version. So it's possible you fixed this already, let me know if thats the case.)

Grettings, Mario.

Daytime and night time interval should be separate but you could see side effects if the daytime delay is very long or if the RPi time is wrong.

Pi clock is correct. How long is very long? I set it to a minute, so there would be less thermal stress to the camera during daytime.

I was talking about things like 1 hour.. Then in that case, the loops is stuck for an hour before checking for night time again.

OK. I will have to check why it went into 1 minute intervals between exposures for night recording because of that setting. The camera sensor is reaching 80+°C during sunny spring days now, so I have to do something.

This issue is from an older release of the AllSky software and a suggested solution provided. If you think it might still be relevant, please test it with the newest version and submit a new issue if needed. Thanks
