gdata.ClientLogin deprecated, use Oauth 2 instead #4

Closed areidyOTH closed 9 years ago

areidyOTH commented 9 years ago

If your google account has 2-factor authentication enabled then login no longer works as gdata.ClientLogin was turned off recently by google (it was marked deprecated 3 years ago). The error message recommends using oauth 2 instead.

This is fixed in the latest version. Code has been migrated to use OAuth and PyDrive. When upgrading remember to update the entries in the /etc/motion/motion.conf file as some additional parameters are now required. See the example in the create-motion-conf-entries.txt file.
