Raspberry PI OS no longer supports the Pi camera via mmal.

Raspberry PI OS requires users to make use of the libcamera application 
get to the camera.? The libcamera application that must be used for 
Motion is "libcamerify" and is installed from the libcamera-tools 
package.? To use it you start Motion with the command "libcamerify 
motion".? Then in the Motion configuration, specify "video_device 
/dev/video0"

 ?It is also recommended to use the 32bit version of Raspberry PI OS for 
the moment.? The 64bit version of libcamerify and Motion have not worked 
well together.

Thank you so much

Some of it is true for Motionplus.

MMAL is not supported by Motionplus either.? The difference is that in 
MotionPlus you are not required to use "libcamerify". (But you can if 
you want.).? MotionPlus adds the direct interface with libcamera 
application and users can specify "libcam_device camera0" in the 
MotionPlus configuration.? Also, since MotionPlus has the direct 
interface, it allows for changing of any of the ~40 camera parameters 
(brightness, focus, etc, etc) via libcam_params.? Using libcamerify you 
only get the defaults and no ability that I know of to change camera 
parameters.
