Description Wolfgang Reissenberger 2018-09-10 17:04:02 UTC 
The capture module has the option to set a delay. But this is only between two consecutive captures in the same sequence job.

I would like to have it *before* a capture takes place and not afterwards. For example, if you want to shoot one frame per filter every 1 minute directed by the scheduler, this is not possible. Instead, the capture module shoots as fast as possible.

There is another thing not possible: you cannot delay a capture after filter change, because exactly the first one after the change is shot immediately.

Or is there another I did not discover yet?

Right, the delay is working as intended (between captures). To support more delays, it has to be reworked.
