If you think your problem is related to [motion] rather than to motionEye(OS), please consider the Motion Project Issue Tracker. See Report Motion Issue before actually reporting the issue.

If you're not sure about the nature of your problem or you think the community might help, please consider writing on the motionEye Google Group.

Issue Already Reported

First of all, search through the list of issues; someone else might have already reported your issue. If you found it, feel free to contribute to the issue with comments.

Report New Issue

If your issue hasn't been reported yet, report it yourself.

If you're using motionEye on a Linux distro rather than motionEyeOS, please switch over to motionEye's issue tracker.

Version And Hardware

Please clearly specify what OS version you are running and on what board. It is also important to know what types of cameras you have attached to your motionEyeOS system.

Attach Log Files

In the Expert Settings section of the settings panel you will find a few log files that can be downloaded and saved locally to your computer. These log files can help identifying the cause of your issue. You can attach these files to the body of the issue (or to a comment).

Attach Screenshot

Don't be afraid to attach some screenshots, if you think your problem can be more easily explained visually. Images can be attached directly to the issue on github.

Sensitive Data

Never attach configuration files (the ones found in /data/etc) before removing sensitive data from them (e.g. passwords, public IP addresses, etc).
