Trouble running a script for 'Auto Select New Capture'?

Hi,

I'm trying to see if there's a way to run a script to Capture One 23 that allows images to be displayed at 1.5 second intervals during tethered capture. I understand the 'Auto Select New Capture' menu allows you to disable this or to customize it in other ways, but I don't see anything allowing you to select the amount of time images are displayed.

I attached screenshots of the Script Editor input I tried, as well as the error code I got when clicking the Script from Capture One's background scripts menu.

Any insight is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

  I don't think this approach is going to work (UI scripting). It's too slow and flaky. 

  If you want to script something what might work (but have not tested) would be something like the Capture Done script which is triggered when new captures happen: something like repeat while the last variant is not selected, selecting next from current, and delay 1.5 seconds each loop. This would more or less mimic the standard behaviour (but with delays) and should also handle bursts.

  You will also have to manually set camera> auto select next capture > never.
