Please can someone help?
My timelapse videos eventually only last 1s. Its useless, I have tried to adjust the settings but I’m only getting more than 1s if i record for over an hour?
Is it possible to record for 3mins and have a timelapse video of 30/40 seconds. Hope you all can help......

You have to adjust the settings. In the bottom right where it sats 3s, click on that and you can set the recording time. A 1 hour recording at 3 seconds should results in a 50 second playback.

Use 3s for 20 mins your Timelapse will be 13seconds, all of this info is available on your small screen.

I'd also advise you to perform the settings while your phone is attached :-) It's much easier to find the settings and tap - tap, Bob's your uncle.  You can then remove your phone (for stability) and the device will maintain the last settings.

Maybe tip for Mimo app to calculate for you the length of the clip based on interval and capture duration?

Hi!

I guess you've never thought about video frame rates.

If you need 24 frames per second (fps) in your video settings, you will have to take 24 pictures for one second of timelapse.
If you take a picture every 2 seconds, you will need at least 48  (24 pics x 2 seconds + shutter time) seconds recording for one second of timelapse.

I've never tried to slow down a timelapse. But I guess you'll receive a kind of slideshow... It might loose it's magic effect.
Take the time - it's a hobby :-)

Easiest way is to record a video (3min) and play it at 6x speed (=30 sec)
