Hi Guys,

New subscriber here.
I use MotionEyeOS on several Raspberry Pi Zero W's as security cameras. With 
cameras connected to a 4G service, I need to use my bandwidth wisely, 
especially as the cameras are not the only devices using the 4G service.
To reduce bandwidth I use a lower resolution (with only 1 frame per second) 
than the camera supports (a 120 degree FoV MMAL camera). Because I'm more 
interested in a wide than high view I prefer a resolution like 1024x600 over 
1024x768.
However, if I specify 1024x600, Motion grabs the top part of the camera view 
(CCD), not the middle part. Is this configurable? If not I would prefer it to 
default to the middle, but ideally I'd like to configure this as  in my case I 
need the bottom part more than I need the top. The top part of the camera view 
is generally ceiling, which is of no interest.

With MotionEyeOS I can provide Motion options for the video device, but I 
couldn't find anything related to this.
Does anyone know if this is configurable and if yes, how?

If not, perhaps this could be included as a feature request?

Kind Regards,

Olger Diekstra
