To try and decrease the horizontal lines around areas of motion detection I
want to run multiple instances of motion. I was informed that this
interference was from other cameras.
Running multiple instances of motion is not a problem, but how do I do this
and have each one use a different motion.conf file?
Thanks,
Harlan

Use -c param on command line, like ./motion -c conf1.conf

This may help somebody else, this is what I did. Fedora 23
In /usr/lib/systemd/system/ I made 4 files, one for each camera. I'm not
sure if they have to be executable, but they are.
motion1.service
motion2.service
motion3.service
motion4.service
*[Unit]Description=motion detection systemDocumentation=man:motion(1)
http://www.lavrsen.dk/foswiki/bin/view/Motion/WebHome
<http://www.lavrsen.dk/foswiki/bin/view/Motion/WebHome>[Service]User=motionGroup=video#
There's no way to do it automatically, sadly# if you have problems with
your camera, uncomment one of those# for PPC64 and
X86_64:#Environment=LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib64/libv4l/v4l2convert.so# for 32bit
archs:#Environment=LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l2convert.soExecStart=/usr/bin/motion
-nc /etc/motion/motion1.confExecReload=/bin/kill -HUP
$MAINPIDPrivateTmp=yes[Install]WantedBy=multi-user.target*
I had 4 threads so I made 4 motion.con files, each one starting only 1
thread.
motion1.conf
motion2.conf
motion3.conf
motion4.conf
systemctl enable motion1.service
systemctl start motion1.service (starts the first thread only, Camera1)

Why not run one motion process starting four threads as per the example
included with the product?

I was having problems with the cameras interfering with each other, this
solves the problem.
