[Motion-user] disabling a camera with a time parameter

[Richard B. <ri...@g8...>]

Hi
just 8 cams on my system, one really needs to be disabled during the
day, 
At the moment I'm sending a script in homeassistant

lounge_cam:
        command_on: 'lwp-request
http://localhost:7770/101/detection/start'
        command_off: 'lwp-request
http://localhost:7770/101/detection/pause' 

sorry for the line wrapping, it doesn't always work as verification is
a pig to get to work,  So far I have failed , 
I have logging set to 8 and I have tried to use grep to find the
response to the lwp-request.
If it was only just using it for a few hours at night, I could use
crontab , but it also needs to be on if we are out or away from home.
with 8 cameras and on log level 8 there is a lot being added to the
logfile.
Am I missing a simple way of doing this ???
