Re: [Motion-user] raspberry pi libcamera motion bulseye

[MrDave <mot...@gm...>]

The only solution that I have been able to find is to disable libcamera 
entirely and revert to the old camera stack as indicated  in link 
below.  I'd note that I did have to revise this further to specify the 
memory as 256 to get my Pi camera to work.

i.e. /Edit /boot/config.txt, remove the line "camera_auto_detect=1", and 
add "start_x=1" and "gpu_mem=128"/.
