Reason: Merged identical threads.
I don't see it on the Market. Could it be due to my location?
I don't think it's a location problem, it require Froyo to run, maybe thats why?

Are you serious?
Seriously, you have a cool idea, and I'm going to try it. But I'm still not sure I can leave the phone sitting long enough to make something useful.
You can do a time-lapse for example in your car when you do some trip or something like that, or in a sunrise or sunset of your room, or when you cook, or whatever, use your imagination.

Totally weird. AppBrain has it but when I try the link I get a message saying it can't be found. Running Froyo though I still have the old Market. Makes no sense to me.
reading over the posts, Lapse it, is a brazilian endeavor, so it does not show in US market, note to developer, since you are in Brazil, you probably are not able to post to US market, I suggest you post the APK in the forum, not link to market, or go to 4shared or send note to one of us that are in the US and attach the APK, this will cut down on the amount of notes, and perhaps you can engage one of us in the US , we can post to US market, where it then can be downloaded by US users.

Actually I'm living in US right now and I'm using the US Android Market and I can see the app, also many ppl here can see ( and many can't ).
In the next version I will update the manifest file and I hope this problem will be solved.
Hi guys, I'm about to release the final version of the app and I would like to see if now it's working on devices that was previous NOT working.
Can someone that tested before and couldn't get it to work send me an email to maurrubio@gmail.com asking the new APK? So I will sent it to see if now it's working.

Damn! I really wanted to try this but using the QR code I get "could not find app in market"
is the new version uploaded to 4shared?
Edit:: I'm in Canada?
Hi Barges, there should be no restriction of countries, you own a Samsung Galaxy? I had two in my hands yesterday and both worked very well to find it on market and to run.

Still can't find it on the market And downloaded from 4shared but it says "application not installed" I'll try restarting and try again.
EDIT:: I installed using root explorer and dumping the APK into /system/app, tried to run the program but it said I need adobe air. When I clicked download now, I get the error "Application not available"..

That sucks, your phone don't support Adobe Air? Maybe that's why the app don't show in Android Market too.
Well, I managed to find it on the Market no problems and have tried both the free and paid for versions, but it doesn't work on my Desire HD. When capturing it just shows a horrible green screen, as if there is something wrong with the resolution (and you can just about make out two camera images at the top of the screen behind the green screen). I tried all available resolutions, but all showed the green screen. I tried to capture anyway, but it saved no images at all.
Also, when you press the Home button after using it it keeps your screen timeout at full and even adjusting the timeout the screen remains on permanently.

Happy to say that there's been an update, which fixes the capture issues on my DHD. Very nice app. There's still a problem when exiting to the home screen, in that the screen stays on permanently afterwards, but using the back button to exit makes it exit cleanly. Might be worth having an exit option on the front screen, so that people use it instead of the Home button.

Thank you, this kind of feedback is what make the applications better, I already fixed this issue and it will be implemented in the next version.
Hope to hear more feedback like yours.

I've got a few other suggestions, if you want them:
The layout of the main screen with the app name and logo dominating the screen completely overshadows the menu buttons, making them difficult to read and even select correctly, especially the three buttons to the right of the logo. Whilst you obviously want to make sure people know what the app is called, funcionality should be key.
The shades used in each button are actually very similar to shades regularly used in many apps to show that that button is greyed out and therefore not available. I'd personally make the text and graphic within each button a little darker if the option is selectable.
Also, the "Record" button is slightly counter-intuitive. It's a grey circle when not recording and red circle when recording. I think the standard recording icons would be better, ie a circle to start recording and a square to stop recording, personally I'd make the circle red and the square black, but that's a matter of style I think.
Can it also do the other kind of time-lapse that I'm thinking about, where it leaves the camera shutter open for say 5 seconds, recording all the light, and then making one picture?

Dang, I should have known when it made me download Adobe Air. This app is extremely slow. Once I finished capturing, it sat there for like 5 minutes. I couldn't put anything into the file name window, the PNG/FLV radiobuttons worked and I could click the render button, nothing was happening. Eventually a large orange 'play' triangle appeared in the video area and it began to play ... extremely slowly ... 2 fps max. Then I had to wait for 5 more minutes while it finished previewing at this slow rate. Only then could I enter a file name and select the rendering type. I selected FLV (why not AVI or MOV? It's 720p after all). It took about 15 minutes to render. Then I tried to play it and it wouldn't play at anything like 30fps! The FLV does not show up in the videos list on my HTC Incredible. When I exited from the app I discovered that my HTC Sense UI had crashed, requiring a UI cold start.

0 stars, returned!
Humm, that's bad, sorry for that, the app usually works ok, but sometimes it don't like some devices I don't know why. I would like to hear from other ppl, we have some other feedbacks?
