A simple time-lapse screen capture script for OSX.
This was created for me to use during game jams, you may find it useful, enjoy!
capture.py [directory]
Run capture.py with a directory when you want to record your screen. Ctrl-C when you want to stop.
Leave the captured images in the directory and capture.py will pick up where it left off.
You can have multiple capture sessions in different directories.
Run encode.sh and pass in the directory of images to combine them into a .mov video file using ffmpeg.
- OSX
- ffmpeg for encoding
Using Homebrew? it's just
brew install ffmpeg
