Images from motion detection saved in default folder

Post by Mr Wolf »

Hi again!
I noticed this strange behaviour:
I set Yawcam to save images when motion detection is running in a folder I chose, but I discovered it also save images in the default folder:
C:\Documents and Settings\User\.yawcam\motion

I discovered hundreds of images in the folder!!!

Is it a known bug or is it only my problem?

These are saved so that when you check the motion activity in Yawcam, you will have a preview as well. I'm not sure though if clearing the activity list removes those pictures as well.

Nope, the files are not deleted
However, I found the option to disable it, in the settings of motion detection: "Don't save motion events in list"
