NCL Pearl 9/6 to 9/13 Bridge Cam Time Lapse

[triptolemus]

We were on this cruise so it makes it extra special. Thanks for sharing!!:)

 

Great! That was my motivation for posting. Please download a copy from the server and add it to your "photo album"...

Thanks...

 

Yeah, it'll work just fine...aside from the image errors on NCL's server. I've actually got it running simultaneously against three ships, Jewel, Pearl, and Sun. The whole thing's been running non-stop since Sept 3. If anyone wanted a particular trip from a particular ship, I could do it pretty easily...

 

Here's one of the Sun... It's not start to finish and it's not captioned, and I didn't look up her itinerary...but has some pretty cool images...

 

Are you continuing to record images from the Sun? DH and I are sailing Oct 2-13 for our honeymoon and would love the images from that run if you are recording them anyways and are up to compiling them for us![emoji4]

A week or two ago, I set up a script on my server to grab one image every minute from the NCL server. I know we've seen time lapse bridge cam before, but I'm doing this for my own voyage coming up next week, and I thought I'd share the results of the test.

 

The test was 95% successful. There were some image errors in Skagway. Nothing I can do about them -- the video is only as good as the images the server has at the time my script grabs it.

 

Obviously the YouTube video is below, along with a direct link. But anyone who was on this particular voyage and would like a copy to download, I've placed it on my sever (293 MB). Feel free to download a copy... link below.

 

Amazing how fast time flies on a cruise... 7 days in 8 minutes...enjoy!

Thank you for sharing, very nice. On my last cruise, I took my go pro and attached it high up on the balcony door with the suction attachment.

 

Worked great..

Sure... I've set the script to grab them and made a note of the dates. You may have to remind me to pull it though... feel free to send me an e-mail to remind me though; please feel free to do so... my username here @gmail.com

For the Pearl? Yes. I will be on it...,

Awesome, tripto.

 

I experimented with a polaroid action cam on our cruise, mounting it on a large spring clamp I bought from Home Depot. I was able to clip it to the partition of our balcony and captured sailaway and Glacier Bay video, the trip up and down Mt. Roberts on the tram, and also mounted it on a bracket of the White Pass Rail train balcony and recorded most of that trip. Not great quality, but fun all the same. Maybe I'll get around to posting some of it some day.

 

Ahh--found a picture of my rig here on the balcony, and here on the White Pass Rail.

Yes. I am there to with my sons and daughter in law. I will meet them on Friday, they are touring through the West.

Yup... I use the same thing. A Pedco UltraClamp

 

I didn't shoot video on the train last time, next time, I'll see if they'll let me attach it.

 

Here it is attached to the ship at Sawyer Glacier. This setup shot my

video...

Well, they didn't say I couldn't! ;)

One of those "easier to ask forgiveness than permission" moments...

You're a genius.

This video is awesome! Can't wait for our trip on the Pearl next September! Have a great time!

[CapCrunch]

Are there other cams on the Pearl besides the bridge cam?

[TxLnghrnz]

This is just about the best thing I've seen in a long time! Reminds me of some great cruises to Alaska...thank you for sharing!:)
