When you've recorded your Little Cyclops time-lapse video or even a full speed video you may want to select a single frame for use as a still photo.
On Windows video editors it's usually easy as you can typically single step through the frames to find the exact shot you want.
So, I was disappointed to be struggling in Linux with the Totem Movie Player only offering me the ability to jump to whole second positions.
But with a bit of web searching I managed to find the solution: The "dot" and "comma" keys ("." and ",") can be used to step the video forwards or backwards by one frame until you find the exact shot you want...
Meanwhile... When I edited SETUP.INI I quickly moved from the default video size (1280x720) to the larger 1600x1200 size for the benefit of the greater number of pixels. But, I now notice that the 1280x720 picture doesn't have a border and the aspect ratio is much wider - however, the horizontal field of view is still the same at around 115 degrees - so the wider aspect ration is losing information at the top and bottom...
