mount points for Motioneye

[bonestaak]

I have plugin Motioneye installed. i have installed a SSD for the video's of my Dahua. Too bad when making mounting points it asked for source and destination. i want to put the video's on /mnt/video But i can not browse to that map

Shall I put it differently: How can you assign a workspace or even better: a separate disk to a plugin, to replace the standard space somewhere under the jail?

So you want to have the pool (you said disk) "video", subdirectory "video-opname" mounted in place of the camera recording location in the jail (/var/lib/motioneye/camera1), although you mention wanting to put it in /mnt/video (which would require a change in motioneye to look there instead of /var/lib/motioneye, assuming that would be possible in the application).

If you just want to do it the straight replace as-is way with no changes in Motioneye:

#need first to empty the target mount (save anything from there that you want first)
iocage exec Motioneye rm -r /var/lib/motioneye/camera1/*
iocage fstab Motioneye -a /mnt/video/video-opname /var/lib/motioneye/camera1 nullfs rw 0 0

If you want to do it in the application and use /mnt/video like you said, then do this:
iocage exec Motioneye mkdir/mnt/video
iocage fstab Motioneye -a /mnt/video/video-opname /mnt/video nullfs rw 0 0
#then make the required changes in Motioneye to point to /mnt/video

Hmm, i think this must be in shell? i do not find shell in jail or plugin

The iocage command should be run at the shell of the host (the Shell tab of the GUI, or connect with SSH if you enabled that service).

zsh: command not found: /var/lib/motioneye/camera1/*
I think because im in the root.

Also, i discovered that the original install does not save the pictures.
and i also first must login with Admin, else i got no settings
