To do that you use a mask to remove the areas you do not want from
motion detection.

Hello again,
I now understand that the version of motion from your repository is
completely different. I had thought it was just the released version
with some bug fixes applied. But now I understand that the released
version is five years old and there has been considerable development
since. So please accept my apologies for the misunderstanding.
I've now copied /usr/local/etc/motion/motion-dist.conf
to /usr/local/etc/motion/motion.conf and then edited it:

When I run it with the config file as above, it stores jpg files when
there is movement, but no avi file.

So we're almost back to where we started with the release version but
not quite (no avi) though hopefully you're in a better position now to
see what we might need to change to fix my original resolution problem.
