Hi community,
I've been using motion for 1.8 years, so have some experience. But,
after upgrading and researching some new issues, I have some unresolved
questions, and a soft crash to report separately.
The relevant configuration lines are:
netcam_url rtsp://user:pass@192.168.subnet/Streaming/Channels/102
picture_output best
locate_motion_style redbox
which has worked great.
Now when I add:
netcam_highres rtsp://user:pass@192.168.subnet/Streaming/Channels/101
the screenshot from best picture is now from the high res stream, and
does not include the redbox.
How can I just get the low resolution screenshot with redbox working,
for the screenshot portion?
Thank you,
Stewart

Hi,
Running motion-4.2.2 with:
webcontrol_parms 2
webcontrol_interface 0
which is the newer css page instead of the older text based html page,
1. When I select the second camera, Action Change Configuration, find
threshold, and type in a new number,
When I press [Enter] it does not work correctly, but comes back with a
white page:
http://127.0.0.1:8080/?onames=threshold
Bad Request
The server did not understand your request.
So I have to use the mouse and press [Save] now to get the expected
result, or press tab first before pressing [Enter]. Not a huge bug, I'll
agree, but perhaps easy to fix?
2. The settings for
on_event_start
is not present in the drop down box, and my crontab that has events
based on time of day or day of week, no longer work.
01 11 * * 0 ( cd /dev/shm/ && wget
http://127.0.0.1:8080/00205/config/set?on_event_start=beep+-f+518+-l+50+-n+-f+777+-l+250
)
The resulting file includes:
<p>Bad Request</p>
<p>The server did not understand your request.</p>
I have tried legacy webcontrol, but it also fails to work as before in 4.1.
on_event_start does not appear anymore at:
http://127.0.0.1:8080/205/config/list
Is this intentional or an oversight?
Thank you,
Stewart

Regarding item 2, it is intentional and appropriate for webcontrol_parms 2

Sure enough, I see that this time. I think on my first read through of
that page, I mis-interpreted the #3 option. Focused on restricted and
passwords. Then on my 2nd and 3rd passes during searching, I failed to
re-parse that line.
