Subject: [Motion-user] Raspbian version
Message-ID: <20190807225350.7dbe7...@acer-suse.lan>

I just bought a new Rpi (3B+) to upgrade my motion system. I downloaded
a current Raspbian image - it's "Raspbian GNU/Linux 10 (buster)".
apt-get says the version of motion available is "motion (4.1.1-1.1+b2
Raspbian:stable [armhf])" which seems a little old to install on a
brand new system. According to
https://github.com/Motion-Project/motion/releases the only armhf
release available from there is "pi_stretch_motion_4.2.2-1_armhf.deb".
Are there plans for a deb for buster? Or should I try to build from
source? Or just accept the prepackaged 4.1.1?
FWIW, my camera is a HD Pro Webcam C920. I'm hoping to be able to
increase the frame rate.

I have the 4.1.1 version running just fine on the latest Buster version. Can?t
speak for frame rate in your situation, but it is supporting a local Pi camera
and 5 remote ones at modest frame rates.

I've been using the deb packages to install the current version and
that's worked well for me. See
https://motion-project.github.io/motion_build.html
To install the deb package, the gdebi tool does need to be installed
first but it's really quite straightforward. When Motion is installed
via apt, the mmalcam option is not available. So that is an advantage of
installing from the deb package.
