Simple Stop-motion Time-lapse Toolkit Initial Release!!!

Version 20120427 is the initial release of the Simple Stop-motion Time-lapse Toolkit.

This is a simple but powerful Linux bash script to create stop motion and time-lapse videos from an Internet URL or an attached video device (see examples). Simply point it at an image source, set the capture frequency, and starting recording stillframes. You can view your stillframes as a video, or convert to a true video format at any point. Bad frames can be browsed/removed with the operating system file browser.

The program relies on a few other installed programs to do the heavy lifting of image capture, webcam access, video conversion, and video playback. This script ties them together nicely in a simple but very effective terminal based UI.
