This is after much trial and error(mostly because I am guessing most of the time), and cleans up the camera names, setting the uploaded filename to whatever you want. This is scripted for 4 cameras (2, 4, 5, 6) but you can take out or add whatever you need. It also assumes that you want passive mode. That should not hurt anything.
I received no real suggestions as to how to put my pictures once a minute onto a web server, via FTP, and I suck at scripting, but here is what I came up with. Seems to work. I added a cron job to do this once a minute. This has nothing to do with the camera settings for motion, events, etc. this simply takes a picture(with zmu), and uploads it, all in one script.
Code: Select all
