Hi! I'm trying out the Phase 1 Pro trial software with a tethered camera. I'd like to be able to use the software like my Canon software and shoot and manage stills for time lapse. Is there a way to do it in the app or is does anyone know how to script it?

Thanks for your time!

  Hello
  
  By changing the delay in the end of the script you can change the interval.
  
  

property HowManyCaptures : 100
tell application "Capture One PRO"
-- Ask how many captures
set theReply to display dialog "How many captures?" default answer (HowManyCaptures as text) buttons {"Cancel", "Start"} default button "Start"


set myCamera to the selected camera
repeat with n from 1 to HowManyCaptures by 1
if the status of myCamera is ready then
capture with camera myCamera
end if
delay 5
end repeat
end tell

  Hi Ulf,
  
  Where do you edit that script? Can it be done on any version?
  
  Is this possible in the new Microsoft® Expression® Media 2?
  
  Thank you!

  Patricio,
  The script in question is an actual command script for firing a camera from the software in intervals. You can use the script only for Capture One and, as it was written for Capture One 3, may require some fine tuning for Capture One 5. However it's the same basic idea.

  Thanks Drew,
  
  I have the Capture One 4. Then, I must deal with the cmd.exe? Once set up, will anything show up in the software´s GUI or is it triggered by the cmd.exe prompt area? It good be a good idea to add an intervalometer to Capture One as Nikon Intervalometer does. It is pretty much needed in aerial photography. Thank you for your help.
  
  Patricio.

  Incorrect, as the script above is for Mac.

  Thanks. I have a Gralab 451 intervalometer that seems to solve the problem.
