Motion Webcamera on pogoplug e02

[deymious]

Hey guys,

I just set up my Webcam on my pogoplug e02 and I'm having trouble enabling it to record video instead of just snapping jpegs constantly. Does anyone know if there is a specific line you need to enable or something in the config file because no matter what I do, it just keeps snapping jpegs and not just playing back a video. I've set the framerate to 100, and its just taking pictures still. Any advice is much appreciated, thanks!

**EDIT - Poking around a bit more I figure that I need to install ffmpeg to see the webcam output as a video. However, when I try to pacman it, it throws a 404 error and says its not on the server. Any other way to get it? TIA!
