Multiple archives possible?

Hi,

I'm trying to record two archives. One triggered by motion detector storing full fps video and another storing timelapse (1 frame per 2s).

I've created two archives:
[attachment=2]settings.jpg[/attachment]

One set up to record everything, connected to motion detector:
[attachment=1]normal.jpg[/attachment]

Second supposedly recording 2s interval frames:
[attachment=0]timelapse.jpg[/attachment]

But when I look at the archive folder the second stream records everything (full stream at full fps). What do I need to do to get the desired result?

Hello!
The easiest way to get a timelapse is to record a normal archive and then perform an export from that archive. In the export options you will find "Export every N frame" box - set this to e.g. 40 (if your camera record in 20 FPS by default). The resulting file will be a timelapse.
If you need this to be a separate archive in Xeoma, make sure the archive is kept as .xem files (not .mkv) - FPS modification in "Preview and Archive" settings works only for .xem archives.
