I have uploaded a number of photos and sorted them by date.
When I make the render files they change order to filename again.

When I look through the movie in preview everything seems correct.
When the film is created, the images are sorted by file name again.
What am I doing wrong

When you do a direct export and render of a timelapse sequence, you get a message telling you that LRTimelapse is not processing anything in that case, just assembling the images of the folder. Currently this also means, that it doesn't care about the sort order.
I will have a look at this and see, if I can implement some sorting in this case.

Here is a workaround you could try:
The rename feature (Edit / Rename with Date Prefix) on your sequence this will put a Date-Time prefix in front of the files.This could help to achieve the right sort order when directly assembling the video.
Please try on a copy of the files first. Let me know, if it works for you.

Another workaround would be to use Lightroom to convert the Sequence to DNG. With a DNG sequence you will be able to use all the processing tools in LRTimelapse and it will also consider the sort order.

Hello
It was solved by doing it like that
Thank you very much for the follow-up and help
