Another very silly question from me, hopefully straightforward to answer. It is about making sure I have the right frame rate, as I will be using it for particle tracking.

In the "Sequence properties" of the channels, I set the time interval as 0.2 s (as my video is at a speed of 5 frames per second).

But the frame at the bottom right of my video stays at 15 fps, I would think it should change? My video is 150 frames, so it takes 30 seconds.

When I then change it to 5 fps, it seems to move too slowly (but it takes the correct amount of time as it should).

What I am doing wrong?

Thanks!

The good setting is indeed the "Time Interval" value. The video speed playback is just for visualization and can be changed independently from the time interval (it's why we don't adjust it when you change the time interval, almost time users prefer to visualize at different speed)... also don't trust too much the FPS here, it's just an indication but it can actually play slower depending "loading". Hope that reply your question :)
