Building a Time-Lapse from stills
to make a time-lapse video:
I arrived at using:
* Insert > Choose... > [selectedFiles], In Sequence
Simple. I love it.
However, I found that I'm not able to really observe the time-lapse in the main canvas - e.g. it displays the first frame, and a moment after the scrubber passes beyond the last frame, the last frame is displayed in the canvas.
So basically I had to export the video to see the result.
Is this expected?
Thanks!

is that "too slow"?It's possible that the CPU and RAM may not be adequate for the number of still frames you're using. Ideally, Canvas, Frames, export settings should all be the same pixel dimensions (1920x1080 for example). Large frame size stills otherwise have to be scaled in real-time. A lot of still frames may require a lot of RAM and processing power. The number of frames may also be a factor.
