This sounds like the best so far, I have the script playing a sound for each cam

I will start looking at ffplay

 

Thank you

You can achieve something similar using the 

script option 'on_event_start' 

to run a script that uses ffplay to display the camera

output and then stop it with 'on_event_end'.

'not elegant but it works ;o)

The autofocus function I want is when motion is detected on one of the cameras, 
that camera?s video goes full screen

End of motion event, back to 8080

 

Playing with a bunch of ideas but still not sure what I can do after I hack 
this out.

 

Can I publish the changes on my site?

Does the GNU allow me to do this?

 

Does the Original Author have to okay the changes?

There is already a config called "vid_control_params" that controls USB V4L 
cameras. If your camera supports turing autofocus on/off - just use 
vid_control_params

I wanted to add another Flag called Autofocus=true/false

It would ?full screen? the camera that detects motion.

A function that would seem to be a no brainer in any surveillance system. 

 

First time dealing with GNU not sure what I can do

 

Thanks for any information

I responded to this before but wanted to ask about the webcontrol

 

Specifically webcontrol_parms 2

How can I send messages to any part of Motion with this at 2 and not 0
