Motion filling up the disk

Postby jonandermb » Sat Aug 09, 2014 1:32 am

Hi! After some weeks using motion, I realize, it has been filling up the disk by storing pictures under /usr/local/apacge2/htdocs/cam1
I use it to access via port 8081 and see the images, but I don't want to store them. I have been looking around in the configuration file but can't see how to do this. Anyone can help?

I don't know motion, but you could write a little script which deletes all images from the folder and then run this script every x min/hours/days using a cron-job.
