Step 1:Install motion server

$ sudo apt-get install motion

 

Step 2: Configure the software

First we will edit the motion.conf file by typing:
$ sudo nano /etc/motion/motion.conf

This is quite a large conf file but the points you need to edit are:
DAEMON = OFF (change to ON)
Webcam_localhost = ON (Change to OFF)

 

Step 3: Set the service up

Next we need to enable the Daemon (service):
$ sudo nano /etc/default/motion

start_motion_daemon = no (change to yes)

$ sudo service motion start

 

Step 4: Browse the webcam
