Wow thanks. I've asked others how they do it to and they have been kind enough to tell me their system, yet did I do it? No. Obviously I'll just need to bit the bullet and do it one day and will be, like you said, thinking, "Why did I wait so long, it's not hard to do"
I think my main goal each day is how quickly and efficiently can I get THROUGH the digital part of my day so I can unplug and return to the 19th/20th century. It's hard work living in the 21st!
Ah well if it's your digital work you want to time lapse, it's even easier with OBS Open Broadcast Software.
