Timelapse with GoPro

jwhop3 wrote on 6/19/2014, 9:22 AM

I was following the tutorial on the other board, was able to resize all my pictures to 16:9 and import them into the frames overview, but when the import is complete, it is not pickup up all the frames.  I chose Cntrl-A and verified all photos were lit up. I even tried grabbing the selected group from the last photo, and it still only brought in 2/3 of them. 

 

I'm using Movie Edit Pro Plus MX.

 

What could have happened?

Ah, I just re-read the tutorial, after reading the Q/A about photo-length, and I think I figured it out.  I probably hadn't set up my format to the correct fps, and when I changed all my photo lengths to .04, it probably cut my photos out. 

 

I will start with a fresh project and try again.

Hi

. . . . I changed all my photo lengths to .04 . . . .

If you are referring to setting the photo length to 00:00:04 each image will be displayed for 4 frames.

A project frame rate of 25fps you will have an effective rate of  6.25 images per second which will give a jerky video.

Depending on how many images you have you may have exceeded the maximum the timeline can handle.

It is better to set the image length on import in the programs settings and not add the images and then change all the lengths.

The maximum number of images I have imported is 3800, which equates to just 3 hrs 20 mins real time - one picture every three seconds - and runs to  2mins 32 secs at 25 fps. with no problems.
