## Details

`&recordmotion` takes a video snapshot and saves it to disk as a PNG file whenever there is motion detected in a video.

* Auto saves (to download folder) one photo per second, max.
* It can take values, such as `&recordmotion=15`, which will control the sensitivity of the motion capture
* It's primarily designed for the sender-side, but I think it should work if a viewer also
* I don't think this will work within OBS, so Chrome/Chromium is recommended instead
* I guess the point of this is to allow for basic security camera operation, but also as a source of inspiration for other ideas
* File name of the saved file contains the timestamp
