In this example, the Capture Rate could be reduced to its minimum of 1 fps, and then when the final movie is sped up by 30x, the recording will still be very smooth. Normally, video is recorded at 30 frames per second, but if the final movie will be sped up by 20x and still have a final frame rate of 30 fps, then most of those frames will simply be thrown away because they're not needed. Knowing that amount of speed-up, you can then reduce the recording Capture Rate in Screenflick's recording settings. For example, if you the recording will be about an hour long, and you want it to take about 3 minutes to playback, that's a 20x speedup.

The key to maximizing the efficiency of Screenflick for time lapse recordings is to first consider how long might the recording might be, and how long you might want it to be when played back.
