asl is a resource-inexpensive way to create timelapses from your screen.
It takes screenshots at intervals (asl) and uses ffmpeg to convert
them into a video (asl-timelapse), optionally archiving them
Just pip install asl_screenlapse
Daemonization is flexible. Run asl at bootup, with DE Autostart, WM
config, systemd service, etc. It will take screenshots in
$HOME/asl-scrots at intervals, but if more than a certain time
passes between them (i.e. different boot), it will create a new numbered
folder.
Whenever you want, run asl-timelapse to create timelapses in
$HOME/asl-summaries, named according to folder number and in the
WEBM format.
