      Looks like you have an old copy of DuetWebAPI, the getStatus call was a recent add.

      Re-download it and put it in the same directory.

      Let me know...

        Also, just committed support for forcing pauses and moving the head during pauses.

          Clicking on the link to DuetWebAPI leads me to the one and only copy that I can see there.

            AHA!! Something that I thought was linked together was not. This is why we alpha test! THANK YOU for exposing this.

            And... there was a commit about one minute before this post, if you re-pull DuetWebAPI now, it will work.

                Hi Danal

                Eventually got it working, not very good with Linux!

                When I ran the DuetLapse.py I got this message

                rm: cannot remove '/tmp/DuetLapse': No such file or directory
                

                Couple of things, where are the images stored?
                Does it delete them after a print?
                and where does it put the video?

                I am going to install Samba so I can access the finished videos on a PC and would be nice if we could define where we wanted them.

                Great work, Thank you.

                Regards,
                Paul

                Edit - I also had this error message

                 Python Library Module 'numpy' is required.
                

                Thought it was directed at me! 🙂

                  Edit: That message should be suppressed, but is not. I will fix that.

                  It puts the images in /tmp/DuetLapse. They will stay until the next reboot, or next invocation of the script. They have sequence numbers, I don't remember the exact name format.

                  It puts the video in your home directory. The vid will be uniquely named with DDMMYYHHMM and you can certainly move it wherever, if you wish to keep them, etc.

                    Re: The "numpy" message, it also should have told you how to install it.

                    Python Library Module 'numpy' is required.
                    Obtain via 'sudo python3 -m pip install numpy'
                    

                    Be sure you have the latest copy of DuetLapse.py, I am pushing four and five updates a day.

                      Project's documentation looks very clear and professionalWould be interesting to see here sample videos.

                      The layer sync without a wired connection to the printer is a creative idea. Is it possible to achieve somehow the 'stationary print head' effect? https://youtu.be/S2cpHMoK8mw?t=13

                      Edit: a feature idea, include automatically music in the generated video.

                      Edit: another feature idea, add automatic time indication in the generator video. E.g. an analog clock at the corner, or digital time.

                        This is already implemented. Add -movehead 10 15 to flags that either detect or force pauses. The numbers are X and Y respectively.

                          Not a bad idea. I will add that to the "to do" list.

                            Probably going to let people do that in post-processing.

                              It has stopped processing at image46 out of 200.
                              I had this issue with the other Timelapse, and dropped the resolution of the images.
                              Is there somewhere I can tweak the resolution?

                              I am not a Python Guru, my skills lie elsewhere.

                                Following on, I added the -q 25 to the DuetLapse.py for the Raspistill

                                        cmd = 'raspistill -o -q 25 '+fn
                                

                                I am getting some errors and it seems to be taking pictures whilst my bed leveling is happening

                                  Very nice! You are doing magic with network connections to the Duet.

                                      I am getting some errors

                                      Yes, those errors are from the flag you added. Don't add a flag between -o and the file name.

                                      Also, the raspistill default is 35, so there is not much point in overriding to 25, that's not all that different.

                                      and it seems to be taking pictures whilst my bed leveling is happening

                                      If you have a bed leveling command in the print job, then yes, it will be capturing pictures, because the printer is running a job.

                                      If you are manually initiating the bed leveling, do not start the script until after you bed level, but before you start the print job.

                                      If there is some other situation, let me know.
