Hi,
What Alan refers to is the following:
-timestep time 0 Change time step between input frames (ps)
which you could have read from the manual/manpage/help on trjconv.
With timestep you change the time step between the frames (to 20ps),
skipping 2 frames, makes 40ps timesteps in your output frame, and half
the frames. Sounds to me that you got what you bargained for.

Don't use -timestep. Just -skip will do for what you want.

Subject: [gmx-users] Trjconv: reducing frames and Time issue
Hello All,
I have a xtc file and I used trjconv on it to reduce the number of frames
using:
trjconv -f original.xtc -o reduced-frames.xtc -s xx.tpr -timestep 20 -fit
rot+trans -skip 2 -center no
Now I have two xtc files for a 10ns simulation:
original.xtc
reduced-frames.xtc
I did gmxcheck to check the number of frames and time (I will show the
results for both below). The problem is: the number of frames is reduced
by half however the time shown on the reducedframes.xtc is increased!!
(from 10 000 ps to 100 000 ps).. I cant understand what this means? I did
a g-cluster analysis and they r saying I did a 100 000ps simulation which
it not true! can anyone explain this to me?
