DuetLapse available for Alpha testing
-
I took a look at the log - I think it's just the path. So try it with -basedir set as an full path i.e. with leading / and no trailing / as I suggested above.
Also - as a side note - I saw your systemctl restarting the script. I'm not entirely sure why it would not have worked with the single instance being enforced but I changed the exit(x) commands (apparently more applicable for interactive use) to sys.exit(x). The documentation suggests the latter is better form ...

I'll give the new version a shot. I'll change -basedir to

I just tried with 264 images - no problems creating the Video file.

Correcting the -basedir to full path fixed my issues. The "held frame" is working great.
Not the fanciest timelapse, but shows the hold: https://youtu.be/LW6hV-MECns
Thanks!

Looks like you have a nice setup.
I'm looking at a couple of other tweaks (e.g. updating the Duet API calls to the newest style) and making the package a single python script rather than two. I am looking at incorporate a capability or two from the other forks.
When that is done - I think we can start another thread without the "alpha" description (DuetLapse2 ?). I suspect the "alpha' bit turns a few folks off.
Will post the changes when I am done.
P.S. Unrelated and from a small side project - I noticed that the mp4 output from ffmpeg (depending on settings) may not be compatible with iphone/ipad e.g if sent as a text or email attachment. Not sure if the output from DueatLapse has the same problem but will check. If it does I'll tweak accordingly.

@stuartofmt please add this https://github.com/jaysuk/DuetWebAPI to the Readme. The old one of Danal does not work anymore with Duet 3 + SBC

In the next few days (maybe a week) I will be working on this comment "I'm looking at a couple of other tweaks (e.g. updating the Duet API calls to the newest style) and making the package a single python script rather than two"
Specifically - updating the API calls to the newest Duet standard and doing away with the separate DuetWebAPI. It (the separate API has unneeded calls etc. and use the old API versions).
When done - it should be good to go for Duet # + SBC. As they say in the classics -- "Stay tuned"

I have started a new thread with a new version of DuetLapse here:
https://forum.duet3d.com/topic/20932/duetlapse3
Partly because this thread is quite long and difficult to track through and also because the new version has a lot of modifications.
@PCR This should work fine with Duet 3+ SBC
