I'm setting up four 5MP ip cameras using the rtsp stream. I'm in the United
States so I set the video format to 60hz. When streaming video through
motion the stream progressively lagged behind real time to the point you
would see what happened after it happened.
I started viewing the timestamp from the camera and motion at the same time
and as time went by they got farther and farther apart. Then I restarted
motion and it started over.
One of the cameras was not doing this and the only difference was I left
that camera at 50hz. I changed all the cameras to 50hz and the problem
seems to have been fixed.
I thought 50hz or 60hz was only for flicker. Does anybody know why this
would make any difference?
Thanks,
Harlan

Hm, interesting
I'm also chasing an issue with one of my RTSP cameras where the stream
gets behind by 5-10 seconds in motion compared with the live view
after running for 2 weeks. Will try to see if those Hz settings affect
my case
