Question: Timelapsing

Hey! Timelapse question here!

So I’m using Chronolapse to take screenshots of my desktop since I’m not livestreaming. Last time it took about 30,000 photos by taking a screenshot 3 times each minute, but I think it is way too much for a 2 minute-long video.

How many screenshots do you take per second when you do this? Thanks in advance :)

Never used Chronolapse, but math to the rescue!

I think I take about 1 screenshot every other second, sometimes 2 every 3 seconds.

I take one every 10 seconds (paused when I’m not doing anything) and then, after combining them into a movie, I scale the entire movie time-wise until it has the right length and feel to it.
