Recording a Time-Lapse or Travelapse Video

You can use the Garmin® VIRB® app to set up the time-lapse recording mode for your camera. Time-lapse mode captures individual video frames at longer intervals and creates a video that plays much faster than real time. You can record a standard time-lapse video or a Travelapse™ video.

Standard time-lapse mode captures individual video frames at set time intervals, and it is useful for recording movements, changes, or events that take place slowly over a long period of time. Travelapse mode captures video frames at a set distance interval. For example, you can capture one video frame for every kilometer or mile you travel on a road trip. This allows you to record and share a short video of your whole road trip and the places you traveled.

  1. Use an appropriate tripod or mounting accessory to mount the camera in a fixed position.
  2. Connect your camera to the Garmin VIRB app.
  3. From the app viewfinder, select Gear symbol > Video Mode > Time-lapse.
  4. Select Type, and select an option.
    • To record standard time-lapse videos, select Standard.

    • To record your travels at a distance interval, select Travelapse.

  5. Select Interval, and select the time or distance interval between video frames.
  6. Start recording a video.

    The camera records video frames at the selected interval.
