Images shot close together in time are grouped together. The interval of time to separate groups is configurable.\n🔗Usage Start the module using script manager.\nSet a gap amount, in seconds, which will be used to determine when images should no longer be added to a group. If an image is more then the specified amount of time from the last image in the group it will not be added. Images without timestamps in exif data will be ignored.\nThere are two buttons.
