making a flower timelapse

Timelapses shot on 13 and 16 Feb 2019
using OpenCamera app on an LG Q6 mobile phone.

Settings:
Repeat - Unlimited
Repeat Mode Interval - 10 seconds.

So, playback at 30 fps made it 300x real-time.

Imported into kdenlive as an image sequence and then exported with pan and zoom effect applied.
Bug and workaround - kdenlive 15.12.3 which comes with Linux Mint 18.1 has an issue with importing image sequences when the numbering is not sequential, or jumps. For example, the image sequence shot by OpenCamera had filenames like
Although kdenlive would see all 463 files in the folder, the images after 85953 would be ignored, and 85953 would be repeated for those frames. Workaround was to put the 8xxx sequence in one folder, 9xxx sequence in a separate folder, etc, and then import as image sequence.

kdenlive 18.12.1 64 bit appimage seems to have mitigated this bug by just importing those frames in the sequence it recognizes, without causing any of the repeat frames. But in the clip properties, it still erroneously shows the larger number of frames found etc. So, the workaround above is recommended.
