Framerate/Timelapse #2

Hi, I was wondering how I could edit the code in order to add something that either allows me to take a 1 FPS video or a time lapse. Any recommendations are welcome!

Billwilliams1952 commented 6 years ago

I will look at the code and get back with you. Thanks for your input.

This is a very complete GUI. Thanks for sharing!

I have been testing it recently. I wanted to check if the FPS could be increased and I noticed that the GUI shows an option to change the mode of the picam. Does this work? Is it possible to get the camera clock (time when each frame is acquired --a TTL pulse for each timestamp) via the GPIO?

Billwilliams1952 commented 6 years ago

I don't know if a TTL sync pulse for time stamp is possible. I am currently adding basic time lapse capability.

Update 2/2/2018 - I am updating the application. You will be able to adjust the frame rate to as low as 1/6 FPS. This will allow long shutter speeds (up to 6 seconds) for e.g. night shots. There are many other her updates, additions, bug fixes, and improvements.

I will be uploading the updates within the next 3-4 days.

Thanks for your comments.
