Intermittent frame capture from footage? at DVinfo.net

Mat Thompson · September 16th, 2007, 06:29 AM

Hey people

I have a sunset (about 5mins) that I'd like to time lapse to about 10-15 seconds. Is there a way to capture this in Prem pro from the raw footage?? So capture a frame roughly every second - To my calc this give 12secs (Pal footage).

Cheers
Mat

IIRC, Adobe took timelapse capture out of Premiere some time ago.

You could capture the footage as normal, put it on the timeline and then increase the clip's speed to 2500%. Then export it to a new file.

Alternatively, you can use our software (see profile for link) to capture directly with timelapse (make sure you capture to Type-2 AVI since Type-1 can upset PPro in odd ways).

Hi John, thanks for the info. Yeah I know I could speed it up but I was interested to know whether time lapse capture was possible....obviously not deemed as a very required function.

I will check out your link.

Cheers
