saving files to usb-stick #671

Hey, I have a setup with a 'master' ME-os and a 'slave' ME camera. I save the motion triggered movies on a usb-stick connected to the 'slave' ME camera. When i disconnect the usb-stick and put ik back in again, the newly created motion triggered movies aren't saved on the usb-stick. I've tried resetting the storage device and root directory, rebooting,.... but with nog luck.

any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Kind regards, Christophe

Most of the Linuxes do not auto mount the USB drives on plugging in. You would need to configure that via usbmount or autofs, plus I believe you would need to restart the motioneye process once done that.
