Hi all,
I've recently run a molecular dynamics simulation in Amber and have been
using PyMOL to create a simple movie of the trajectory. The smooth command
helps a lot with seeing the large motions I'm interested in. However, my
movie seems to run quite slow. Actually it runs quite fast, some 60 fps in
the PyMOL GUI, however it appears to run slow visually, i.e. motions take
more time than I'd like them to. Basically I would just like to speed up
the movie, but am limited by the fps of the output, and really have no need
for a 60 fps movie, 24 or 30 is quite fine. Ideally I'd like the movie to
take maybe five or ten seconds, but right now it takes nearly a minute,
since I have over 2000 states in my trajectory.
My question is whether or not I can delete states, say every other state or
even more, without manually deleting each one, and end up with a seemingly
faster movie. I'm quite happy with 24 or 30 fps, since it's still perfectly
smooth to the eye.
Is there some simple pymol command to do this? I've searched the wiki and
the archives and found a few similar feature requests from a few years ago,
but nothing as to whether or not this feature has been implemented.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated! Thanks.
Tom
