Ronnie, I appreciate your response but I'm still at a loss on some points:
Why is there a limit of 6 in any version?
"Server" has several meanings. Are you saying I should run an older
version of Motion on different hardware? Perhaps you mean a 2nd instance
of Motion on the same hardware? And Rob said he's running an older
"server" which is different than an older version of Motion in my mind.
I'll appreciate it if you'll clear this up.
What do you mean by "create an HTML hosting"? HTML doesn't host
anything, it's a language.

"Server" Motion is a server application. I use Manjaro. I am sure you can
install an older version from source or set it up on a device that isn't a
rolling release and likely using an older version.
If you write an HTML correctly, then it will show all of the cams. It isn't
hard to do, but isn't within the realm of this mailing list.
Thanks,
Ronnie McMaster
