 Post subject: Saving Motion Sensing Image at Higher Quality

I have a 1.3 megapixel camera as one of my cameras. Everything is working as expeced (scheduler and motion sensing). However, i'd like to save the image when motion is detected in great quality. Currently, that image is saved at 25% quality, resulting in a jpg image of 47k. Saving it as a PNG gives me a little better quality (and of course a larger size at 1.2MB), but doesn't have the resolution I want.

Is there a setting I can tweak to have the system save motion detected pictures at full quality, no degraded or anything?

Thanks.

Hello,

you can adjust the picture quality for the motion detector action and the scheduler separate. So the scheduler can have 10% quality for the pictures which are captured in intervals and the motion detector 100% quality for the pictures which are taken at detection of motion.

Under "General settings" you have to choose "...are separately adjustable..."!
In this case you can adjust different settings for the motion detector, the scheduler and the manual mode (via button press to capture).

No clue how I missed that - I must have searched for 10 minutes earlier on how to change the setting. Then, I searched again this morning for it again for 5 minutes before I saw the slider bar under the preview picture.

Thanks for setting me straight.

Eric
