I tried to make a movie using this new kind of technique, it was very easy using a webcam and linux.
Webcam resolution 640x480, the video is created using the same resolution.
Command to record frame:
cvlc v4l2:// :v4l2-dev=/dev/video0 --video-filter=scene --vout=dummy --aout=dummy --intf=dummy --scene-format=png --scene-ratio=240 --scene-prefix=snap --scene-path=/tmp/timelapse v4l2:// vlc://quit
command to merge frames in a single video:
mencoder mf://*.png -mf w=450:h=338:fps=12:type=png -ovc lavc vcodec=mp4:mbd=2:trell -oac copy -o output.avi
The first frame date/time: 2011-09-05 09:25
Last frame date/time: 2011-09-06 09:29
About 24 hours compressed in 5:28 minutes.
