I have tried everything and can randomly get it to work.

What is your process please?

I'm sorry to be so late in getting back to you. Just in case you still need the info, here is what I do (as an example):

Camera to manual focus and exposure.

DE: 5 sec   (initial delay to make sure everything is settled)

BU: 0 sec for any situation not involving bulb mode on the camera. If using bulb mode, then set to whatever exposure time you want.

INT: Interval length, so whatever interval I want, so long as the camera has adequate time to process the image and be ready to take the next.

N: number of shots to take. I.E. a goal of 10 seconds of footage @ 30fps = 300

Sound on/off as an arbitrary decision I make in the moment.

Once all the settings are right, press the start/stop button. The initial delay should begin to count down, then the first frame should fire and start the interval count down until the next frame fires.

Good luck!
