Time lapse video

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.video (More info?)

I'm not sure what you exactly want to do here, so....
If you want to shoot time lapse stuff then you need a camera which will
record using a time lapse feature.
If you want to use video already shot and make it look like it was shot
using time lapse, then you can do this with movie maker, by removing a
certain number of frames at identical intervals. It'll take a while to do,
but easy enough.

A time lapse recording will say record 1 frame every second.
A normal recording will record 25 frames every second (I'm in PAL) it may be
29.97 for you.
To make it look like time lapse you need frame one, remove frames 2 to 24,
use frame 25, remove frames 26 to 49 etc etc....
You can do this using the split function and then deleting the clip between
the two frames you require.
