Hi Utkarsh, I missed this and just saw your GitLab comment. To answer your first question, I was on Linux, saving as PNG. But, you're correct, my issue was that ffmpeg accepts two -r flags, one for the input and one for the output and what I needed to do was set -r 1 and -r 30, respectively.

If so doesn't changing "Frame Rate" have the same effect for avi? If you set your frame rate to 1 frame/second, doesn't that yeild exactly what you're looking for -- each frame stays on for 1s with discrete jumps and no interpolation? Atleast on linux/mac where the FFMPEG writer is used, I can see that the frame rate of 1 fps works as expected. What am I missing?
