[Motion-user] Motion config file vs Camera config file

[Michael G. <mj....@gm...>]

Hi everyone,
I've been using Motion for a few years now, and I just updated to 4.1.1-1,
and added a second camera. Since I now have 2 cameras, I'm using the
Camera.conf files. I've been editing the files and trying some of the
options, but I'd like to optimize both my motion.conf and camera1.conf &
camera2.conf. My question is, which parameters can I move to the individual
camera, and which parameters NEED to stay in the motion.conf file? Ideally
I'd like to move as many parameters to the individual camera conf files so
that I can configure each camera separately from the other.

Also, Any suggestions on the best way to secure my motion site would be
greatly appreciated. I don't have http config currently turned on, and I'd
like to have that option in the future so I don't need to SSH into my
server every time I want to make a small config change.

Thank you all for any assistance!

Mike G.
