When I see timelapse videos, besides the visual aspect, I like to see the details of how it was printed. During timelapse rendering, instead of just doing an overlay of the OctoPrint logo, allow overlaying of the current stats of the printer.

  • Nozzle diameter
  • Extrusion Multiplier
  • Layer Height
  • Shells
  • Use of a Skirt, Prime Pillar, Ooze Shield or Raft
  • Infill
  • Nozzle Temperature
  • Bed Temperature
  • Fan Speed

I realize some of these stats may have to be equated from the gcode and some may not even be possible to obtain. But it would take the timelapse video to the next level.
