a resource-inexpensive way to create timelapses from your screen

Project description

# asl ## The Auto Screen-lapse Tool

### Introduction

asl is a resource-inexpensive way to create timelapses from your screen. It takes screenshots at intervals (asl) and uses ffmpeg to convert them into a video (asl-timelapse), optionally archiving them

### How to use

Run asl at bootup, with a cronjob, Autostart, etc. It will take screenshots at intervals, but if more than a certaing time is between them (i.e. different session), asl will create a new numbered folder. Whenever you want, run asl-timelapse to create timelapses.

### Todo

  • [X] Install scripts

  • [ ] Configuration in .ini format

  • [X] Make it available on the PyPI

  • [ ] Cross platform - using ffmpeg bindings rather than os.system()

  • [ ] Tests, i.e. example pictures

  • [ ] PEP compliance, SLOC limit (for contributors)

  • [ ] Automatic archive zipping

  • [ ] Timelapse from archive
