What happened instead?

The photo folder is ready but a folder of 900 photos for 4GB (22 hours of printing) but obviously the folder is too big and the software does not want to mount it for lack of available memory. However it is the only photo folder on Octoprint while all the other timelapse and photos are deleted! There should be room The file cannot be compressed and downloaded because it is too big ... well Octoprint gives me the default "The zip archive is too large to import." ... The file cannot be deleted because I have the default: in short I am blocked

If you like this project, please support my work by becoming a patron, and consider adding a 'star' to the repository. It takes a lot of time and effort to maintain the project and respond to issues. The cost of test prints, software, cameras, printer parts, etc. can quickly add up, so every bit helps.

I can't understand where I can find the folder full of "timelapse" photos which visibly full and which consumes all the space on the SD card Do I have to use a 32/64 GB card to manage Octoprint and Octolapse videos? PS : Sorry for my english is probably very bad ...

[FormerLurker]

Look in /home/pi/.octoprint/data/octolapse/tmp/octolapse_rendering_tmp. If you don't have enough space to store and render the videos, you will need a bigger SD card. It looks like you are using a DSLR, so each photo could be multiple megabytes.

Hi FormerLurker Sorry to ask this question, but how do you access this file? with the web browser page? with ssh? Thank's

[FormerLurker]

I use an SFTP program (filezilla), though there are lots of ways to do it. I find SFTP to be the most convenient. You can use the same username (PI) and password you use to connect via SSH.

Normally you can just download these images straight from the Octolapse tab, but since you have no free disk space it won't work. Octolapse zips up the images before the download starts, so it needs enough space to do the zipping.
