this is great, thoim using it to make random speed movies from my library. problem i have is when i try with more than a 1000 or so images it just hangs. i left it try 28000 images all night, they were fully rendered to full size and still preparing to export after 10 hours. any thoughts?
im using this with the addition of random and if i break the library down to smaller sections i loose the random factor that makes this work so well.

@udo you can download 1620p templates from my site. I provide a tool as well that will allow you to make kind of key-frame-animations right out of Lightroom making the high resolutions for post processing somewhat obsolete.
Please have a look at http://gwegner.de/en/lrtimelapse

I looked inside the Lightroom package. You need to up the data rate to compensate for the change in size. The internal coding isn’t designed to go above 1080HD, so your efforts are probably futile.

Thanks for your presets. Where did you find the information to make the video preset?

I’m trying to make a very high resolution (2 or 4 times 720p) timelapse video to have more flexibility in post-processing but I am unable to create a working video preset. I managed to export a 2560×1440 video by changing your 720p preset but the video is extremely distorted when playing in VideoLAN.

Could you give me some advice on how to export a 2560×1440 and maybe 5184×3456 video?

here n Seoul the links are not opening, tried Firefox, Safari and Chrome on both the mac and a pc but none are connecting with any of the links to your presets. I’m baffled.

The new ones on the bottom should, but it all depends on the program you preview in. I’ve a newer page at http://lightroom-blog.com/presetsmain#timelapse

Hi Sean

thanks for the post, unfortunately the preset links don’t seem to work. Any chance of me downloading them from somewhere else?

Thanks

Correct. Video export is a Lightroom 3 feature.

I’m using LR 2.7. That being the case then, time lapse is just not going to work?
