VERSION/TAGS
0.35.2
0.35.1
0.35

OS
all version tested on (2) machine:
OpenMediaVault 3.0.7.4 / docker version 17.03.1-ce
Ubuntu 16.04 / docker version 17.04.0-ce

SYMPTOM
-motioneye cannot load network camera images
-motioneye reports error after restore backup (camera images never appear)

DETAILS
Looks like motion crashes with 6a97d1a or fails in error (4.0.1+git6a97d1a)
I was able to export working motioneye container that used motion 8a1b9a9 (4.0.1+git8a1b9a9), all was OK

This error seems to recently started in last 30days. I previously moved to new machine without error.
Recreating image+container on same machine now result in errors.

not sure if it is related to Motion-Project/motion#379

also, would it be possible to utilize specific motion build to prevent error

https://github.com/Motion-Project/motion has a new dependency in .travis.yml that needs libavdevice-dev which is not present in the container. Apt repo needs to be updated then libavdevice-dev needs to be installed.

Workaround is:
docker exec -ti container_name /bin/bash
apt-get update
apt-get install libavdevice-dev
/usr/local/bin/installMotion.sh
exit
docker stop container_name
docker start container_name

I have a next problem here.
When i use motion without the motioneye - works fine, connects to my ip-camera, autorize there, gives stream, motion-capture, etc,etc.

But, when i use your image, and add same camera via MotionEye GUI:
If i add only a url to it - motioneye understands that login and password needed
when i add user and password - no errors, like we passed the authentication.
BUT, no video from camera in such case. Not a single image. While so, camera itself is working ok, network is ok, etc.

Probably this issue might be related to the authentication method, but i`m not sure. With a basic- motion (that works) i have to use an url with username, like:

netcam_url rtsp://[USERNAME]:[PASSWORD]@[IPADDRESS]:[PORT]/cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=1
And this works.
If i, using the motion itself, remove username and password from the string, and add it as the part of the

Username and password for network camera (only if required). Default: not defined

Syntax is user:password

; netcam_userpass value
parameter with a proper username and password - its not working. As ive seen in configs generated by motioneye, authentication isnt written into the url.
Also, i cant connect the camera via motioneye`s ui, using the full-string with username and passwords in it.

Actually ive realised that this question probably should be adressed to the motioneyes autor, but perhaps you could advice something while i`ll ask him same question.

Is it possible to change to port of the motion-stream server
by using the environment variables?
If so, what is the exact variable for change that port

Cant use your docker. Permission denied on device video0

Timezone does not seem to be correct even when using:

Would also love to set hostname. Tried variable with no effect:
-e HOSTNAME="MYHOSTNAME"

Any suggestions?

Can we install the openmediavault motioneye docker on the raspberry pi device?

Is there an installation article or video example if the docker is available?

Hi,

When i add a camera i get error: Failed writing header
Previous version worked fine.

I've created host folders to map the config and media folders from the container to the host and even chown 777 to test them and get the following errors:

cp: cannot create regular file ‘/config/motion.conf’: Permission denied

Am I missing something?
