How to setup the raspi cam. Based on a tutorial by Geek Gurl. http://youtu.be/8xWy3g2QAZ8

to see this youtube video directly on the pi you need to install gnash. Its an open source flash plugin

sudo apt-get install gnash
sudo apt-get install browser-plugin-gnash

Enable Camera in config

sudo raspi-config  

Test still image

raspistill -o cam.jpg

Make a sequence

raspistill -o image_%04d.jpg -tl 1000 -t 60000

This will make a picture every second for one minute. Time is caculated in milliseconds. So 1000 is one second.

Now install some video creation tools

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libav-tools

And convert your video to a mp4 like this

avconv -r 10 -i image_%04d.jpg -r 10 -vcodec libx264 -crf 20 -g 15 -vf crop=2592:1458,scale=1280:720 timelapse.mp4

play it with omxplayer

omxplayer timelapse.mp4
