The --path param is fine, it solves the problem.

I just ran my first test:
Code:
for i in $(seq 1 10); do
  time /opt/cmdCam/bin/cmdCam --exposure 30000
done
It just worked :-) Each pic takes about 4-5s. So to take 10 pics 1 min apart from each other, one could just use
Code:
for i in $(seq 1 10); do
  /opt/cmdCam/bin/cmdCam
 sleep 56
done
Cool!
