Moin,


I am just reading the motion guide and playing with it for the first time.


In addition to motion capture by motion itself, I'd like to be able to
trigger a video recording etc via an IR sensor

or an eternal button (doorbell)

Is this what 'SIGUSR1' is intended for?


I am a bit confused what 'current event' means in that context..


If SIGUSR1 is not the correct way. could a handler for signal (SIGUSR2?)
be added

that simply triggers the reactions that would happen as if motion was
detected

(but maybe with some variable indicating that it was an external trigger)


cheers
