I got a new Logitech HD webcam (1920x1080), and wasn't having much luck doing time-lapse because the method that I was using with the 2.1MP webcam was using too many cpu cycles.

I wrote a simple Bash script to use uvccapture so that I could capture in numeric series, starting at the number after the current highest. I think there is a better way to find the most recent file than the way I've done (using ls and a few pipes) and that is one of the things that I have to change. The good thing is that it works, with some more youtube videos coming soon. I wonder if anyone is even interested in time-lapse photography...
