Mask Override

[Charblaze]

Hi,

I can't override the default mask, even if I overwrite the mask file
with my own and set it read only. I'm running kmotion Ver 2.15a Beta
on Ubuntu 11.10.

Thanks.

Hi,

So kmotion generates its own mask from the blocks you can click on the
image, if you need a finer mask than that you will have to edit a
little bit of code ...

kmotion/core/init_motion.py

Line 155 - 157

# feed mask,
if parser.get('motion_feed%02i' % feed, 'feed_mask') !=
'0#0#0#0#0#0#0#0#0#0#0#0#0#0#0#':
print >> f_obj1, 'mask_file %s/core/masks/mask%0.2d.pgm' %
(kmotion_dir, feed)

Comment out these lines and kmotion reset, kmotion will no longer
generate mask files, you can make your own and put the config in
virtual_motion_conf

Hope this helps
