Scheduled jpeg for timelapse

[555]

Hey guys,

I've been trying to set up a scheduled jpeg picture, at noon, every day (with the intent of building a timelapse later). I cant seem to get it working... I've tried configuring the "JPEG Post", with success when I enabled "Queue an image update every *** seconds", however that's not what I want. I want a scheduled photo at noon each day.

After configuring the JPEG Post tab, I can right click the camera, click "queue jpeg post now", but it does nothing. Photos only seem to be taken when I configure the "every *** seconds" setting.

When I go into schedules, make an event for noon to "Queue jpeg post", also nothing happens...

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

@555, this seems to be a bug, I would email support.

Did anything ever come of this? This is the only reference I can find to the "Queue JPEG Post" function in the camera control event schedule. I'm running in to exactly the same issue for the sames reasons as the OP. Since it's been 3 years since the original post, I was hoping that there would be a fix or some further insight. Any help would be appreciated!
