It's a very strange problem. I set the MotionEye to record continuously. Unfortunately it only starts recording when I am connected via the web interface. If I exit the browser it stops recording. But if I stay on the page it records correctly and saves the video. Have I made any settings wrong? Thank you
Have you enabled motion detection? This should be activated even if you are using continuous recording.
You can also try setting 'emulate_motion on' in the extra motion options.
HI. No, I turned off motion detection. I didn't think it was necessary with continuous recording. I'll activate it now and see what happens. Thank you
No, it doesn't work. not even activating motion detection. If I set the recording mode in 'motion triggered' it works perfectly. But if I put 'continuous recording' it doesn't record anything.
Maybe your video file is getting too large. Try setting the 'Maximum Movie Length' to limit the file size.
Could you please share your log file again?
