The Qt approach to grabbing frames from the live stream was also
a failure.
- decided to switch to a combination ffmpeg and imagemagic was
external commands to do motion detection. this approach
elimates the need for opencv altogeather so it was removed
from the project. system resource usage appears to be decent
and perhaps better than opencv.
Turned off caching for all web interface pages. Opencv will no longer be
compiled from source as part the setup.sh script, instead the
libopencv-dev package will be installed.
created setup, build and install scripts to make it easier and
convenient to compile and install the application from source. no plans
distribute pre-compiled binaries because it's just so much easier to
guarantee the application will actually work in the target machine when
compiled by the target machine.
