Motion Detection

This page lets you change the Motion Detection settings for your video device(s).

If you have more that one video device installed, you can swich between the settings for each device using the drop-down box in the top-left corner.

Sensitivity adjusts the color difference needed to trigger the motion detection algorithm. In low-light conditions you will usually have to lower the sensitivity to compensate for flickering.

In most conditions you can just leave Auto Calibrate checked, and the program will detect a suiting sensitivity setting. Note that detecting the setting takes 10-20 seconds, and while this is going on motion detection might not work very well.

You can define an area for motion detection if you don't want the entire picture to be motion sensitive.
