Time Lapse not saving file

Post by billv » Sun Jun 16, 2013 8:49 pm

I tried the Time Lapse feature and I cannot get it to create the avi file. I can find the photos and tried selecting all of them and none of them. It goes through the action and appears to be creating the file, but it doesn't create the file. The Play Movie option that appears says it can't find the movie and it's not in the directory where I told it to put it. I've searched the entire computer for the file and it's not anywhere on the computer.

The camera is a Nikon D3200. I can't find the option for USB to turn on/off PTP/MTP mode - I assume this camera doesn't have one. I did find the photos in my photos directory. It'd be nice to specify a location to save photos.

Is it normal for the USB connection to suck the battery dry? I will be getting an external power supply for the camera but the USB connection seemed to drain the battery rather quickly.

Try this version: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/409 ... .0.573.exe When camera is connected to the PC the can't enter in standby so the battery will be depleted more quickly i'm working on a solution.

I found the reference to the similar issue and downloaded the 534 version and that fixed it too. I'll down this one. Thanks again.
