What "speed up video online" means here

Most people looking to speed up a video want a shorter version of a long recording — a 10-minute driving video becomes a 30-second clip, or a full day of construction compresses into a highlight. Time Lapse Magic does that by sampling frames and re-encoding the video to your chosen length, which is the same result as a timelapse. The difference is just the name: tell us how long the final video should be, and we speed it up for you.
