Interval recording question

I am doing a test time lapse today and what I'm wondering is does using the interval recording feature change the amount o time that my sd card will record for. On the LCD viewfinder it still says "1hr 38min".

Perhaps I'm not asking the question correctly, does the readout on the LCD not compensate for recording less footage?. For example typically if I'm shooting at 1080/24 1hr 38min would be the total amount that this card could handle in constant shooting. So is the readout not done in real time but rather in how much data is collected?

I may have answered my own question but if anyone knows please confirm, thanks.
 
In timelapse mode, the readout reflects amount of time that would play back if you filled the whole card.
In VFR mode it reflects the amount of record time.
