I thought this one was a dream come true..

I guess not, unless one's a PhD in computer science. How the hell is one supposed to fix stuff when it doesn't behave as expected? Yuck!

A thousand apologies! It works!! And the picture quality in the movie isn't bad!! I could recognize myself on this crappy camera! Just use winSCP to port the swf file over to windows and look at it with Chrome!! Phew! Now, where can we go with this?
I did update the _port to 8081 (original) instead of 8085, but that shouldn't be necessary..
I thought I should give it some credit and half-heartedly went in the living room and turned on the light and thought that should qualify as motion - since the successive frames differ considerably and - yes! There's a tiny .swf file there and that's exactly what it shows! Looks like christmas light lighting up the room - a 0.5 second movie - on/off/on/off..
Excellent work by Kenneth Lavrsen.
