Enhancement Request - Motion Detect Define area
Posted: Tue Feb 15, 2011 8:13 am
Hi,
I'm just getting into Yawcam, great little piece of software thus far, thanks for your efforts.
I have found a couple of issues, this one is a potential UI enhancement.
It's impossible to use the UI to define the area for Motion detection when the screen that Yawcam is running has a lower resolution than the video feed as the OK and Cancel controls are off screen.
It would be great if the live image used to Define the motion detect area could be scaled to 75% and 50%.
Workarounds currently are to set the screen to a higher resolution than the monitor and access via VNC etc or I expect to manually define the area in the yawcam_settings.xml via a text editor. Is there a source of information that provides detailed explanations for each entry within the yawcam_settings.xml file?
Cheers,
Rob
