motion detection

Postby natma » 16 May 2017 21:11

Hello, I am trying to use the motion detection. I have the logfile activated and it works. But there are still some things that are unclear to me:
1)Is there a way of obtaining the time of the motion? like a timetable there was so much movement at this time? what I only get is this:
motiondetect debug: Counted 209 moving shapes.
2)Ive found this code in a forum:

Code: Select all

vlc --video-filter=motiondetect -vvv > modec 2>&1
and it works but the second part I can't do anything with it

Code: Select all

while true : tail -n 1 modec | grep 'moving shapes'
Does anyone know how to use it? or is it perhaps not for windows? Because I would like to filter only for the time without motion

3) how often is it detected? It's more than 1 per second and not per frame, because "motiondetect debug: Counted 0 moving shapes." is also displayd when I pause the video

4) Everytime I enable motion detect I get these failures
"core warning: picture is too late to be displayed (missing 43 ms)
core debug: picture might be displayed late (missing 11 ms)"
What can I do about it?

I hope someone could help me. Thank you!

1) you need to modify the code for this.

2) I don't think it is there is a simple solution for Windows, no.

3) every frame. but when paused, VLC blits the frames.

4) not much, I'm afraid. Increase the input cache, for example.

Thank you for the answer,
1) do I need to modify the code of the motion detection function or just in the command line?
Is it much that needs to be modified?

Did you ever get this to work? I'm in need of relating a timestamp from the feedback log as well.

Is there a way to play a normal video until a motion is detected over stream? If it is, then switch to stream video until there is motion. Probably longshot but still

Did it work out?
