Hi all,
I'm trying to setup RPI Zero 2 w to record video when it detects motion.
I've installed motion
I tested my camera with rpicam-still and it works fine.
I've found a few threads online about " bcm2835-v4l2 " but... none of that advice worked.
Is there a way to get motion to work with the rpi and camera ?
