Ah, ok. So a different camera might give me a different result then. That's
good to know.
That leaves mounting the camera upside down (and rotating the image), tilting
it or living with it.
Introducing middleware isn't really worth my while. Too much complexity.
Thanks for your reply!

Subject: Re: [Motion-user] Video view position with lower resolution
Motion does not select which part of the sensor to grab, it asks camera to
provide 1024x600 and you will see whatever camera gives
Also, there is no way to crop picture by motion, but you can setup a
middleware, like ffmpeg, that will grab picture from camera, resize/crop and
feed it to motion (if it is really worth)

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?

Only the webcontrol_interface 0? has the thumbnails.
Creating the thumbnails became exponentially more complex now that
Motion supports streaming all the cameras on a single port combined with
all the new streaming options (full size, substreams, static images,
motion image streams, source image streams)
Generally, the thought was that programmatic scripting would be via the
webcontrol_interface 1 and users would not use a browser. For the
webcontrol_interface 0, /most /of actions/config/detection operate the
same way.? The differences being in the results to requests
(detection/status, detection/connection) rather than action requests or
config changes.
