Subject: [Motion-user] Raspberry Pi camera - Setting AWB values via
Motion.
Message-ID: <[email protected]>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
I can?t find anything in the documentation that specifically says this
parameter can be set, but deduce that it ought to be capable of setting via
mmalcam_control_params.
Can anyone confirm this is works from actual use?
I ask because the forthcoming firmware introduces an additional value of
?greyworld? that needs to be set if using a NOIR camera. If not set the default
?auto? value will produce odd results and interact badly with Auto Brightness
if that is set in Motion.
Thanks.

Subject: [Motion-user] Motion 4.2.2 vs 4.1.1 CPU usage
Message-ID: <[email protected]>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8; format=flowed
I upgraded my system to the latest version of Linux, and at the same
time, upgraded Motion from 4.1.1 to 4.2.2.
I have 8 RTSP cameras set up, 5 cameras configured for snapshot mode at
1 frame per second (all 2MP), and 3 streaming at 5 frames per second (2
2MP, 1 1MP).? All of this is running on a quad core Rock64 w/ 4GB DRAM,
at the default CPU frequency (1.3GHz).
With 4.1.1, I was seeing around 150% CPU utilization (via top), and when
connecting to the web page, around 300% CPU utilization. Since the
Rock64 is a quad core ARM processor, max is 400%.
Now with 4.2.2 and the same camera configuration files (updated with new
option names), I'm seeing CPU utilization of 250%, and when connecting
to the web page, the numbers are maxed out, and the web page is
basically non-responsive.
Since I upgraded the underlying OS, I can't rule out that it's requiring
more CPU cycles for Motion to do the same thing, but that seems
unlikely.? Running top doesn't show anything else using CPU cycles
(other than top).
Can anyone confirm if 4.2.2 is using significantly more CPU cycles than
4.1.1?? If I can't find a way to reduce the usage, I may have to go back
to 4.1.1.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
