Choose folder instead of snapshot URL #19

Would be great if we can set a specific folder where the snapshots can be made into a timelapse from

This is useful for example for cameras without IR that would require some light before taking a photo at night, since then you'd be able to use an automation to decide what happens before and after the snapshot

This would also allow snapshots from all sorts of sources

Whilst the folder is fixed, the sub-directories are derived from the URL. This is by design to ensure uniqueness and avoid collisions. There's nothing stopping you from doing your automation and altering the photos.
