Description

Hi,

i try to test the configuration of motioneye and i want to have a possibility to set different actions for "picture save" and "movie end". At the end i want to sent the oic when it is saved and i want to send the movie when the movie is save, both via telegram with seprated shell scripts.

In the GUI Setup i found the option "File Storage --> Run a command". But tis option effects "on_picture_save " and "on_movie_end " at the same tiime with the same command.

file_storage camera_config

Is it possible to configure both separatly?

Thanks & best regards

My setup: motionEye Version | 0.42.1 Motion Version | 4.4.0 OS Version | Raspbian 11 on PI4

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the current 'Run a command' configuration in the GUI and motioneye code to understand how on picture save and on movie end are triggered, then propose a way to separate them into two distinct command fields.
