The Matt's let me Crash Camp During Bell's Iceman Cometh Challenge 2024, and left Gear Guard Running as everybody finished, I had several clips so I strung them together and time-lapse of the event.

So if you have been on the struggle bus with securing the right USB-C drive for your whip, I found the following useful and ended up buying The Rivian was situated in just the right spot to capture riders as they returned back to camp. To get started snag the events and export them to USB-C
Now, lets take a look at the "Events" folder to see what we are up against in the capture.
The "sideRight" camera got most of the action, and there was about 82 events captured at about ~37MB or so, lets string these together and create one monolithic movie.
The star of our show here is ffmpeg , we we need to run out and get it.
This was hanging out there in multiple posts on Stackoverflow, but this is what worked for me while parked in the root folder of the Events that were exported. For starters, we wanted only to string together the sideRight Gear Guard events, so to do this, we built a list which generated the files in order with a mask of the sideRight.
Once thats complete, check the ordering in the output file to see how we are doing.... LGTM.
Now we are ready for ffmpeg to do its magic and create a single movie with the list from above.
Processing can take some time, and light up your CPU fans in the process...
Here is the resulting video...
Useful if your whip managed to capture something important over a time series and you want it all in one video.
