Illustra3 Pro Motion Detection Not Working

Description

The Pro Gen3 series uses the TI video chipset and requires at least one H.264 stream at 1920×1080. The illustra3 plugin would not allow changing the encoder type to MJPEG in Stream 2 but it does not prevent the user from setting Stream 2 to MJPEG, which causes motion related issues with our plugin. Setting Stream 2 to MJPEG could cause two issues.

  • Inconsistent motion events(motion could stay on or off continuously)
  • Motion tab disappears after updating motion configuration in client.

Steps to reproduce

  • Go to the camera’s web interface and set Stream 2 to MJPEG.
  • Connect the Illustra Pro Gen3 camera to the server with motion tab still available.

  • From the camera web interface change Stream 2 back to H.264.
  • Disable/enable the camera from the client and motion tab should be enabled.
  • Verify changing motion settings and motion tab stay available.
