Why does Qphoto save every photo when recording time-lapse videos?

Last modified date: 2023-05-22

By default, Qphoto saves the individual frames of time-lapse videos as a separate photo file. This allows you to make adjustments, such as the time-lapse speed, before recreating the time-lapse videos later in Photo Station.

Disabling Burst Photos

Disabling burst photos will stop Qphoto from saving individual photos for every frame of the time-lapse video, but you won't be able to recreate the videos later.

  1. Open Qphoto.
  2. Go to Shared Photos, then tap the camera icon.
  3. Go to Camera Settings > Auto Time-lapse.
  4. Disable Save as burst photos.

Recreating Time-lapse Videos

If you need to adjust the time lapse video after uploading it to your NAS, you can recreate the video within Photo Station.

Note:
You will be unable to use this feature if you disabled Save as Burst Photos in Qphoto.

 
  1. Open Photo Station.
  2. Go to Qphoto Instant Upload > Time-lapse.
  3. Right click on a time-lapse video, then choose Re-create time-lapse.

Adjusting Image Index Size in QTS

Time-lapse videos won't be indexed or viewable if their resolution is smaller than the Minimum image size to index setting on the NAS.

  1. Log in to QTS
  2. Go to Control Panel > Applications > Multimedia Management.
  3. Go to Media Folder, then click the Setting button.
  4. Adjust the Minimum image size to index settings.
  5. The resolution must be less than or equal to the Time-lapse resolution used in Qphoto.
