Re: [Motion-user] movie recording vs motion detection FPS

[Jeff G. <jg...@kr...>]

I know on your trendnet camera that you can set the frame rate that the 
camera provides to a variety of settings.  On mine, I have setting for 
1, 5, 7, 15, 20, and Auto (Frames/Sec.).

Have you tried reducing the rate there to see if it improves things?

Thanks,
