Hi,
I'm using Motion 4.0.1, with 8 threads all using networked IP cameras.
Five are configured for snapshots, 3 are streaming at low frame rates (5
frames/sec). All cameras are on their own network (dedicated wire). A
second network interface is connected to the main network, for accessing
image data.
A couple times a week, I have to restart one to three threads (gray
image on web page). Is this a known issue? I searched around but didn't
find
anything relevant to this issue. I reviewed the release notes from
4.0.1 to 4.2.2, but nothing jumped out as a likely fix, or even as a
related
issue.
I'm considering upgrading everything to the latest (OS plus Motion),
but really don't have the time to invest in this at the moment. If this
was a known issue and was fixed, I'll bite the bullet and do the
upgrades. Otherwise, is there a way to get Motion to detect a problem,
and auto restart a thread? On rare occasions, I need to reboot the
offending camera, but usually just a thread restart from the web page
fixes the issue.
I'm running Motion on a Rock64 w/4GB RAM, 8TB USB HS drive, running
Arch64 Linux.

Rob.

I prefer OpenBSD for dedicated server installs such as video surveillance,
but had thought that motion was not ported to that OS. It seems I may be
mistaken.

Any experience here building/using motion on OpenBSD?
