Hello everyone,
I'm very new to using Motion, and I have two possible noob questions.
First, I have two USB cameras set up so far as a test, and they are running
on a Raspberry Pi 3. However, when I look at my web GUI, one of the cameras
has two windows showing and the other only has one. The duplicate videos
link to the same port (8081). Why is this. I assumed the first window was
maybe for rotating through the cameras, but it doesn't rotate through them.
Can I get rid of one of those duplicates, or get it to rotate?
Second. When I try to view my cameras using the external IP address, I can
get to the page, but instead of showing the video feeds, I get three broken
image link icons. I can view them when I VPN into my home network and pull
up my internal IP but never my external. I do have the port forwarded. Am I
missing some permission somewhere?
Thank you for all your help.
Wes

What GUI are you talking about?

(accidently replied directly to Wesley, re-sending this to the list)
Your first issue sounds like the issue I fixed after version 4.0.1 (it's
included in the 4.1 and 4.1.1 releases). It quite literally is just
showing the first camera twice.
As to your second issue, do you have each camera's "stream_port" port
forwarded/allowed as well? The main WebUI doesn't pull in each stream
and re-stream it, you need to be able to connect to each stream
individually yet.
