Re: [Motion-user] Pixelated Playback

[Harlan D. <hda...@gm...>]

Thanks,

Increasing the bitrate helps, but I am unable to get the recordings to
playback with the same quality as the older version of ffmpeg.

I changed it from *ffmpeg_bps 500000* to  *ffmpeg_variable_bitrate 2*.

This is an issue I hope will be worked on in the future.
