Motion Snapshot Release 3.2.1_snap2

Release Notes

• Major new feature. XMLRPC is replaced by a simpler http remote control interface (implemented by Angel Carpintero). http://www.lavrsen.dk/twiki/bin/view/Motion/MotionHttpControl

• Fixed netcam->userpass problem (Angel Carpintero)
• Added support in configure for athlon64 from http://www.lavrsen.dk/twiki/bin/view/Motion/BugReport2005x01x30x190907 (Angel Carpintero and William M Brack)
• Fixed some gcc warnings (William M Brack)
• Code cleanup from a valgrind analysis (William M. Brack).

Next Steps

• Pending patches. The first to be integrated are
  • http://www.lavrsen.dk/twiki/bin/view/Motion/BestPreviewShot
  • http://www.lavrsen.dk/twiki/bin/view/Motion/SetupModePatch
• Remove most command line options and replace them by an option to specify location to motion.conf and a few options related to setting up motion.
• Range checking of options - includes a complete redesign of how options are loaded and changed via remote control. This redesign is mainly making the code more robust and should be transparent to the user.

Known Problems

• See the BugReports for open bugs.
• Motion Guide does not match this version. See MotionHttpControl and MotionHttpAPI for documentation of the new http based remote control feature.

• The pwc-ioctl.h is for pwc version 9.0.1 and 10.0.6. If you still use the pwc 8 series then you need to use the headerfile pwc-ioctl.h-pwc8.0 (copy the pwc-ioctl.h-pwc8.0 over pwc-ioctl.h). This is relevant for USB cameras using Philips chips.
