MotionPlus uses the ffmpeg libraries to process network cameras. This option is
a comma separated list of the ffmpeg options for the camera. In addition
to the ffmpeg options, MotionPlus includes the following additional options.
<p></p>
<div>
<i><h4>capture_rate</h4></i>
The number of frames per second to capture from the camera. This option should be slightly higher than
the FPS that the camera is sending image. Users can also specify the capture_rate as
<code>pts</code>. When using <code>pts</code> as the capture_rate MotionPlus will sync the timing
of the capture to match between the clock and the presentation time stamps sent from the camera.
</div>
<p></p>
<div>
<i><h4>decoder</h4></i>
The ffmpeg hardware decoder to use. Note that not all of the hardware decoders provided by ffmpeg are
available. The only hardware decoders are those that do not require customization of libary usage. The
ffmpeg libaries on the computer must usually be built from source in order to enable hardware decoding.
