Thank you for downloading StreamMinder, a Qt front-end to MJPG-streamer.

This is a small pet project to make webcam management easier for my wife, who knows nothing of command lines and thus has little use for MJPG-streamer by itself. 
StreamMinder is released under the GNU LGPL. See the LICENSE file for details.

The 0.8 release addresses a second bug reported by user Aditya. Apparently, the file output has been completely borked all along, and nobody noticed until now (or at least nobody mentioned it).

About the error boxes that pop up when starting a stream:
I've talked to Tom about possible fixes, and proposed a solution that I tried out in my own copy of MJPG-streamer. I haven't heard back about whether he wants to go that route, so StreamMinder still exhibits this behavior when used with the official MJPG-streamer. I have links on both my SourceForge project page (in the "News" area) and on my KDE-Apps page for my modified version of MJPG-streamer, which you're free to download and use in the meantime. Let me know if you'd like the source as well, though it's identical to what Tom has except for the few changes that I noted in his project's forum.

Planned features (and a list of several already-implemented features) can ben seen in the TODO file.

As a final note, it may be the case that the directory you chose as the mjpg-streamer directory upon first running the program may not remain valid forever, but the UI currently has no way of changing it. There are two ways to reset this setting:
1. Go into ~/.config/StreamMinder and edit StreamMinder.conf, replacing the value of "streamerDirectory" with the actual mjpg-streamer directory name.
2. Delete the "streamerDirectory" entry in ~/.config/StreamMinder/StreamMinder.conf (or delete the whole config file if you don't mind losing all your settings), which will cause the UI to ask again for the mjpg-streamer directory the next time it starts.
