Hello, Today out of the blue, the 'motion' (ver 3.2.12-3.2) application on my Debian Testing (kernel 3.2.0-3-amd64) box has stopped working. It appears as if it cannot find the necessary av codec.
It doesn't matter what video output format I choose (avi, flv, swf, etc.), or if I run it with "sudo motion", the error is the same: avcodec_open - could not open codec: Invalid argument [1] ffopen_open error creating (new) file [/usr/local/motionvideo/01-20121020213958.swf]: Invalid argument Can somebody suggest how to troubleshoot this one? The console has the following lines when I start up motion: ---------------------------------------- [0] Processing thread 0 - config file /etc/motion/motion.conf [0] Motion 3.2.12 Started [0] ffmpeg LIBAVCODEC_BUILD 3482368 LIBAVFORMAT_BUILD 3478784 [0] Thread 1 is from /etc/motion/motion.conf [1] Thread 1 started [1] cap.driver: "uvcvideo" [1] cap.card: "UVC Camera (046d:0990)" [1] cap.bus_info: "usb-0000:00:12.2-2" [1] cap.capabilities=0x04000001 [1] - VIDEO_CAPTURE [1] - STREAMING [1] Config palette index 8 (YU12) doesn't work.
