• Now using LX - Terminal Login to your Pi.
• Follow these steps to Install the Camera Packages: (ENTER THESE COMMANDS)
  • sudo apt-get update
  • sudo apt-get upgrade
  • RESETTING : sudo apt-get remove libavcodec-extra-56 libavformat56 libavresample2 libavutil54

  • wget https://github.com/ccrisan/motioneye/wiki/precomp...
    sudo dpkg -i ffmpeg_3.1.1-1_armhf.deb

  • sudo apt-get install curl libssl-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev libjpeg-dev libx264-142 libavcodec56 libavformat56 libmysqlclient18 libswscale3 libpq5

  • wget https://github.com/Motion-Project/motion/releases...

  • sudo dpkg -i pi_jessie_motion_4.0.1-1_armhf.deb

  • sudo apt-get install libmariadbclient18 libpq5 libavcodec57 libavformat57 libavutil55 libswscale4

  • sudo nano /etc/motion/motion.conf (FOLLOW THESE STEPS)

  • ■ daemon on

  • ■ Note: Change the following two lines from on to off if you’re having issues with the stream freezing whenever motion occurs.

  • ■ output_pictures off

  • ■ ffmpeg_output_movies off

  • ■ Optional (Don’t include the text in brackets)

  • ■ stream_maxrate 100 (This will allow for real-time streaming but requires more bandwidth & resources)

  • ■ framerate 100 (This will allow for 100 frames to be captured per second allowing for smoother video)

  • ■ width 640 (This changes the width of the image displayed)

  • ■ height 480 (This changes the height of the image displayed)

  • sudo nano /etc/default/motion
