Motion graphs
V5.
I keep the "Camera Info" window up all the time, and one of the columns is "Motion". I also have the camera preferences, 'Triggers" window open, which has a graph for "Current motion". I see that the two are not the same; in particular, the Camera Info window often shows more motion (the "gauge" is redder) than the Triggers window. e.g maybe the camera info is more on more constantly while the triggers window gauge just flashes occasionally.
How are they different?

The reason for using the scaled-down preview image in the Preferences window is because the motion algorithm draws red blocks on the image data to indicate where the motion is being detected, and we only want these displayed within the Preferences window and not on the actual source video data itself (which might get recorded, sent through the web server etc.).
So while there might be a difference, it should be a very small difference - can you confirm?
It feels like the Camera Info window is sometimes more "responsive" if that makes sense. Sorry I can't be more precise about it. And I don't think it's really worth pursuing further. I was just curious if one was pre-mask and one post-mask, or some other obvious differentiator.
