TimeLapse Camera Player
allows you to play multiple
files, either from the same
directory or from multiple
directories. To add files to an
existing playlist, simply drag
and drop one or more files
into the TimeLapse Camera
Player window. Alternatively, using the “File –
Open” dialog box will allow you to select multiple
files.
Files will be sorted in the playlist by their date and
time stamp.
Wherever possible, the TimeLapse Camera Player
moves from one file in the playlist to the next,
whether in regular play, single-frame, or motion
search mode.
To skip files in the playlist, you can either click
on the “Previous” or “Next”: buttons, or you can
double-click on any filename in the playlist.
To clear the playlist, you can click on the “Clear”
button.
For certain uses such as
surveillance and security
applications, TimeLapse
Camera Player incorporates a
motion search algorithm. This
lets you quickly scan through
long sequences in which
nothing moves, and only see
frames where the scene has changed.
Motion Search is only available when TimeLapse
Camera Player is in a paused or stopped state.
Note that during motion search, the main display
is not updated. This allows the motion search to
This sets how sensitive the motion detection is. A
value of 0 is most sensitive; any variation from one
frame to the next stops the motion search.
A threshold of 255 or greater is least sensitive; no
change in the image will stop the search.
TimeLapse Camera Player scans from the
current frame toward the end, looking for
a frame differing from the previous frame
by more than the threshold value. When
TimeLapse Camera player detects a frame
with motion, that frame is displayed in the
main image window and the player is put
into Pause mode.
Backward motion search functions the
same as forward motion search, except that
it scans from the current frame toward the
beginning of the sequence.
Stop Motion Search stops the motion search
at the current frame, and place TimeLapse
Camera player into Pause mode.
