Re: Motion on Raspberry Pi: Problems with 2 camera's on USB 4 channel composite video capture device (tosiara) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message: 1 Date: Fri, 6 Aug 2021 12:08:05 +0200 From: motion.mailing.l...@pennock.nl To: motion-user@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Motion-user] Motion on Raspberry Pi: Problems with 2 camera's on USB 4 channel composite video capture device Message-ID: <0ea2256f-d500-9916-6200-c9f043201...@pennock.nl> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"; Format="flowed" I'm using Motion <https://motion-project.github.io/> on an *rPi 4B* as a multi camera solution to be used on a boat (to get 180? front view). I tested it with 2 IP camera's and one USB camera and that worked fine. I was able to view the live streams of these 3 cameras side by side on a HTML page. However, the cameras I need to use on the boat are composite video cameras. They are simple car backup cameras as can be found on eBay and AliExpress. To get them to work on the rPi, I bought a generic "/EasyCap 4 channel USB Video Capture Device/". It has 4 composite video inputs and 1 audio input. It is recognized by *Raspbian* as the *STK1160* (which is correct). One of the two CV cameras is connected to input 1 of the capture device, the other to input 2. Each camera has its own config file: Camera 1: |# /etc/motion/conf.d/camera1.conf # text_left This is camera 1 videodevice /dev/video0 input 0 norm 1 stream_port 8083 | Camera 2: |# /etc/motion/conf.d/camera2.conf # text_left This is camera 2 videodevice /dev/video0 input 1 norm 1 stream_port 8084 | The only difference between the two config files being the input channel and the streaming port. Problem is, when both config files are enabled, neither work. Instead of two live streams, I see two broken image icons on the HTML page. If I enable just one of the two, regardless of which one, I can see that camera's stream. Here is the motion log with both config files enabled: |[29750920:motion] [NTC] [ALL] [Jul 26 11:07:27] motion_startup: Using log type (ALL) log level (NTC) [29750920:motion] [NTC] [ALL] [Jul 26 11:07:27] become_daemon: Motion going to daemon mode [29750920:motion] [NTC] [ALL] [Jul 26 11:07:27] become_daemon: Created process id file /var/run/motion/motion.pid.
