Is *nph-mjgrab* still a thing?? I used Motion many moons ago and this
utility was an essential part of my camera setup. I'm trying to get all
of my cameras working again, but I don't see nph-mjgrab anywhere on the
github site.? Has it been replaced with something else?? If I get it
from Ken Laverson's old site
<https://www.lavrsen.dk/foswiki/bin/view/Motion/MjpegProxyGrab>will it
still work with the latest Motion?
Thanks, David

I use a combination of on_event_start and on_area_detect for different cameras.
My script waits for about 4 seconds for something to happen (for instance, a
person approaching the building to get closer), then it queries the Motion
MySQL database to find the image in that event with the largest number of
changed pixels.
The script sends a notification with an URL linking to the event via PushOver
(a reliable instant message) and sends a copy of the image via email (sometimes
takes ages to arrive, but gets there eventually).
