There is an example command in motion-dist.conf, check it

I should have mentioned that my first try was to simply uncomment that
extpipe example (the ffmpeg/h264 one). Leading to the same error
message...

There really is something that ffmpeg doesn't like with what it receives
from motion via extpipe, like my subsequent attempts on foo.raw seem to
confirm.

Can you tell us a couple of things to help determine what is happening?

Are the versions of Motion and ffmpeg up to date? (what is the full 
version number of libavformat reported in the Motion log?)

What is the type of camera? Multiple cameras?? Are they disconnecting 
during the extpipe process?

Does the live stream show ok or show corrupt images?

motion 4.0, reporting "ffmpeg libavcodec version 57.48.101 libavformat
version 57.41.100".

A single Pi NoIR v2, not disconnecting during extpipe.

The live stream works like a charm.

Hi all

The other day, I asked "Can stop moving object detection for a certain 
period if motion is detected once"?
And I got a response saying "It is possible by setting event_gap and 
max_movie_time".

So, I set event_gap 5 max_movie_time 300, but that did not work.
Next, I set event_gap 300 max_move_time 300, but that did not work either.

In these settings, is not it related to still images?

Is something good, is not it?

Thank you.
