I hope this helps anyone who is having trouble and I hope it's easy to understand. Good luck everyone!
My LrTimelapse cheat sheet/checklist:
Start in LrTimelapse:
- Click on folder in the tree on the left to load it into LRT
- Keyframes wizard
- Add or remove keyframes with the slider
- Save
- Make sure Lightroom is in Grid view in Library
- Drag to Lightroom
- Make sure to use “Add” (Not “Copy”) in the import Dialog
- Change filter to LRTimelapse Keyframes
- Edit first keyframe
- Use provided graduated filters instead of creating new ones
- Select all photos
- Select LRTimelapse Sync Scripts on top menu bar to copy any settings you want to the other keyframes
- Check all other keyframes and adjust in the same way if necessary
- Go back to Grid View in Library
- Select all keyframes
- Metadata > Save metadata to files
- Reload
- Autotransition
- Save
- Visual previews
- Select a reference area for deflicker, if there are areas in the image, that should not affect the reference for deflickering - leave them out
- Visual deflicker
- Follow the trend of the line but get rid of the small bumps with the deflicker slider
- playback sequence and refine deflicker if you see residual flicker
- Hit the apply button
- Save
Switch back to Lightroom:
- Change to Grid view in Library
- Change filter to LrTimelapse full sequence
- Select all photos (Control A)
- Metadata > Read metadata from files
- Make sure the source folder is selected on the left side rather than “Previous Import"
- File > Export
- Expand the LrTimelapse tab on left side of the export window
- Choose JPEG, 4K or JPEG, Original
- Change output path to a parent folder where you want the timelapse to be stored
- Export
- Wait for Lightroom to export and LRTimelapse export window will come up automatically when export is finished
- Choose output settings
- Render video
