Subject: [Motion-user] What happened to the 'stream_preview_method'
config option?

I have recently started to set up motion on a Pi 3B+ running the latest
version of raspbian Buster. I used apt to install version 4.1.1.
Following the configuration instructions on the site, after setting up
the basic parameters and making sure that everything worked, I tried to
"Specify stream_preview_method 3" in the config file, in order to look
at motion detection. I had to write the option in, since it wasn't in
the default file, and when I ran motion, I got an 'Unknown config
option' error for it. Further research suggests that this option may
have existed in a previous incarnation of motion, but has not been
available for some time. Is there a new option which provides the same
sort of split view - showing detected motion as well as the basic video
stream? In any event, the configuration instructions need to reflect the
currently available (and unavailable) options.

4.1 doesn't offer that option
https://motion-project.github.io/motion_config.html If you scroll down,
then you'll see that feature is only listed under 4.2.
