Ok let me try to make things clear.
The point is, in LRT with the holy grail workflow you have these jumps in exposure (everytime the settings are changed) marked as 2 and 3 star keyframes. I'd like to have as less of these jumps as possible because I made the experience that it's better to control the brightness difference by hand between those, the auto keyframe wizard does not do the best job everytime.
In order to do that I like to control a few things:
First, being in control of the "jump size". The ISO jumps in aettr are always fullstops (100, 200, 400...) whereas the shutter jumps are less than 1/3 stop (1/200th sec, 1/180th sec, 1/160th sec ...) control over that would be nice to reduce the amount of jumps!
Second, I want to control the direction (sunset, sunrise or automatic[for scenes that get darker first and brighter afterwards or vice versa]) to make sure that i don't get unnecessary jumps.
And third (most likely the most difficult feature to implement in comparison the the first two) I don't want aettr to make exposure changes based on a single image.
Let's say im capturing a scene at the water and in one single frame (30s interval i.e.) there is a white boat in the middle of my frame. This is going to lower the shutterspeed (or ISO) for the next frame because aettr makes decisions based on one image. The pity is that this doens't help me at all because there is no boat in the next frame. Let's assume im doing a sunset timelapse and I forced the program to behave this way (point two, exposure adaptions in only one direction) it can't go brighter again, because I didn't wanted unnecessary exposure jumps in the first place (this is where the third point is important to make the second one work well).
A good way to make this work would be letting aettr making decisions based on a couple of frames (i.e. 2,3,4,5) using an average instead of just one image.
