Motioneye on ODROID C2 + docker

[David Elliott]

Hi all,

I've been interested in single board computers as soon as I seen how little power they use. I've opted to potentially use the odroid c2 as it has good specs for price.

Cut to the point.

I'm looking to run motioneyeos on docker as I want to run other things on it such as rutorrent and potentially Plex.

I want four cameras linked to motioneye all of which will be IP cameras and I want to record when motion is detected. Does anyone see any performance issues using this board? If yes, is there any boards which are up to this? Recordings will be stored to a sd card or hdd unsure which way to get yet.

The c2 is a mighty board for the price point and should perform as expected. A few notes about odroid products though...

The eMMC is what makes em special. If you want performance, spend the extra $$$ for an eMMC chip.

If you want to store videos and such locally on the hub, then I would recommend an odroid HC1 w/ a SDD or HDD. With the os moved to the physical drive you will get eMMC performance, but at a much cheaper $/GB ratio.

Just a small remark in addition to what @billotronic said: the fstab.disk file will probably require an update just so that the OS knows what to mount as root filesystem. Something similar has already been done for the OdroidXU4, where the SD card device is fact /dev/mmcblk1 (instead of /dev/mmcblk0): https://github.com/ccrisan/motioneyeos/blob/master/board/odroidxu4/overlay/etc/fstab.disk.

Did you build your planned system (with a Odroid C2)?

I was planning to upgrade my current setup (Pi 3B+ based) which gives poor FPS. Can you elaborate on your setup (Odroid C2 with IP cameras) and the performance you are able to achieve? I intend to run three IP cameras and one USB camera...
