Timelapse+ 1.3.0 is out and comes with 2 big features!

Pre/Post Rolls

Now you can generate a customizable animation or still image before and/or after your timelapses and make them look fancy with blur and fade effects! Supports still images (first frame = pre roll, last frame = post roll), a final preview as pre-roll or even a short timelapse of the whole print before the actual timelapse starts. Timelapse+ can even read information out of your print file name and display them as a text overlay.

Timecodes

Want to include a timer for the elapsed print time as an overlay? Or a progress bar? Or even an animated analog clock? No problem, that's now a feature! Timelapse+ stores your print metadata and snapshot timestamps in the Frame Collections and creates nice Timecode overlays on your timelapses. Sweet!

Timecodes (as well as Pre/Post Rolls with text overlay) are available for Frame Collections captured with version 1.2.1 and above.

More...

  • New Webcam Type: Script! Now you can customize your snapshot source even more and use other external inputs just by a snapshot-providing script. This might become especially handy when using a DSLR camera.
  • Pause and Resume commands: Now you can pause the snapshot capturing by using the new @SNAPSHOT-PAUSE and @SNAPSHOT-RESUME commands if you want to exclude parts of your print from being captured.
  • The settings page had a massive overhaul. Settings are now grouped into tabs which makes the settings page less cluttered. The Enhancement- and Render Presets editor moved to a new window so you don't have to change them in a long, scrollable list anymore.
  • Timelapse+ now also checks for available Encoders and informs you if your FFmpeg installation misses any.
  • The Resize option to manipulate the video size has now moved to the Render Presets (not Enhancement Presets anymore)! Keep in mind that this means you have to configure it again!
  • The Fade-In/Fade-Out color is now fully customizable

Bugfixes

  • Now yuv420 pixel format is used as default. This should fix problems with some browsers (including Firefox and Safari) when displaying MP4 videos in the preview window
  • Snapshot commands are now case insensitive and spaces are trimmed
  • Fixed a bug that could produce GIF images with a wrong framerate
  • Render pipeline improvements and fixes

I hope you like the new version. If you have any comments, questions, problems: Just open a ticket on GitHub. I appreciate all of your input! 😃
