I save my movies etc. into a subdirectory for each camera using %$.
I've just starting using webcontrol to save a snapshot however the
lastsnap.jpg symlink is the target_dir folder (/var/lib/motion). This would
appear to be doing what the docs say but if I try to change target_dir to
include %$ it doesn't substitute that for the camera I want.
Is there a way to get the symlink in the same dir as the snapshots? In my
setup:
target_dir /var/lib/motion
snapshot_filename %$/%Y%m%d%H%M%S-snapshot
Thanks
Jake
