webcontrol camera layout

[robert-brown19]

Is there a way to adjust the camera layout in Live Stream? If it was alphabetical then I could just change the names of my cameras. I have a mixture of 10 Cameras, V2, V3, GS, & Webcamera at different resolutions. I would like to format the lower resolutions on the same row. It seems random currently.

I am using MotionPlus BTW. Reviewing Motion documentation, it appears its Live Stream preview has more features than MotionPlus. I may just wait for Motion 5

First, the MotionPlus code was merged into Motion so they are no longer different. The revisions have not however been put together into a formal release. (i.e. 4.7 represents the older Motion while the git master branch has the enhanced features previously only in Motionplus.)

Next, yes it is possible re-arrange and resize the images on the live stream preview. See the documentation on stream preview. This is a link to the code version of the documentation but it will read easier if opened from your download of the source code.

Short version: Use stream_preview_params to specify row/col and stream_preview_scale to size up/down each stream. The stream_preview_scale specified in the main motion.conf then scales the entire combined image.
