I'm a newbie with motion. I have not gotten to install it yet. I am coming from
having used zoneminder for years and gotten fed up with the bugs and developers
that want to be paid to fix their own mistakes. What I need to find is more
information about the capabilities of motion and using it on Fedora. Where can
I get this? Information on sourceforge is not exactly the greatest.

There is of course the guide but it is pretty long.
https://motion-project.github.io/motion_guide.html
For an overview, you may want to look at some of the intro videos I
created at

Thank you very much. I watched a couple of the videos and they gave me a lot of
information as far as the capabilities. I was looking to have to write my own
software to do what you're already doing. I prefer not to reinvent the wheel.
I'm very pleased that you have such good informative videos out there.
It looks very complex which means I may have to write a g u i to handle the
configuration files for those who don't really know how to work them. It looks
like I will have a learning curve so I hope you don't mind a few questions.
What I do want to find out that is not going to be covered in the videos is
about installing this on Fedora. And what kinds of things I may have to watch
out for to make all the various cameras work. If your software works as I think
it will, I will be replacing multiple zoneminder installations with your
software. It looks like you have a web browser interface which is perfect.
Does your software also have the ability to view recordings from the web
browser? Stupid question I know but I didn't notice it anywhere. I I'm sure I
will find more questions when I get a chance to install this in a test
environment this week.
