Hi,
I investigated a little further and found
static void mlp_prepare(struct context *cnt){
[...]
/*
* Calculate detection rate limit. Above 5fps we limit the detection
* rate to 3fps to reduce load at higher framerates.
*/
cnt->process_thisframe = 0;
cnt->rate_limit++;
if (cnt->rate_limit >= (cnt->lastrate / 3)) {
cnt->rate_limit = 0;
cnt->process_thisframe = 1;
}
This could explain why there are so many duplicate detection frames reported
with identical raw changes etc.
I still try to figure out how the implementation matches the comment. lastrate
of context is initialized by
cnt->lastrate = 25;
How does that relate with the code above to 5 fps?
lastrate then tries to match the actual rate in
/*
* If we have started on a new second we reset the shots variable
* lastrate is updated to be the number of the last frame. last rate
* is used as the ffmpeg framerate when motion is detected.
*/
if (cnt->lastframetime != cnt->currenttime) {
cnt->lastrate = cnt->shots + 1;
Funny enough:
In my case I run with 15 fps, for which the code seems to match the comment
:-)
I general, I think the comment is wrong, it should be
* Calculate detection rate as framerate divided by three
Any confirmation that my conclusions are correct would be very welcome.
If yes, I suggest to move the magic constant 3 in mlp_prepare to a parameter.
Thanks
Rainer
PS: I must miss something in the cnt->lastrate initialization in the log
output I see that it starts with 1 and not 25, in any case it converges to the
real rate of 15 after about 2 seconds.

I think there are so few messages on this list, that it does not hurt to have
developers questions/answers here... ;-)

Hi,
>From what I understand it is asked to prefer the list to the Github issues.
So I report the bug here.
*Abnormal behavior:*
When motion is restarted with the command /action/restart the stream may
not work. There is a stream but it is frozen on a single frame.
*How to reproduce this bug :*
1. Launch motion and open the stream.
2. Stop motion using the command /action/quit
3. Restart motion using the /action/restart command
4. Stop motion again with the command /action/quit
5. Wait about 30 seconds (I'm not sure waiting is really the cause but I've
noticed that the longer I wait at this stage the more likely the problem is
to appear).
6. Restart motion with the /action/restart command.
7. Watch the stream. Normally it's frozen on a single frame.
The problem may not always occur. In this case the steps must be repeated
again (perhaps waiting more in step 5?).
*Notes :*
Reviewed guide and contributing documents: Yes
1. version: 4.3.1
2. installed as a package or compiled from sources [deb, rpm, git, other]:
deb (and I tried from sources also)
3. standalone or part of third party [motion, MotionEyeOS, other]: motion
4. video stream source [V4L (card or USB), net cam (mjpeg, rtsp, other),
mmal]: mmal and also PC webcam
5. hardware [x86, ARM, other]: x86_64
6. operating system [16.04, Stretch, etc, FreeBSD, other]: Kubuntu and
raspbian buster
I can attach my configuration file if necessary but I don't think it's
specific to my configuration (I've changed a lot of settings and the
problem keeps appearing)
Thank you in advance for your help.
Have a nice day!

How do you "open" the stream?
