Script to add Audio to MotionEye recordings

MotionEye Audio

Script to add Audio recording to MotionEye NVR

Docker Image

A docker image with the script already added to the /etc/motioneye/ directory can be found here.

Manual Copy

Currently this has only been tested on continuous recording, but should work on motion events as well.

Docker script location - Identify the directory mapped to /etc/motioneye/ volume for the container. Copy motioneye-audio.sh to the host directory mapped to the containers /etc/motioneye/ directory.

MotionEyeOS script location - Copy motioneye-audio.sh to the config directory - this is typically /data/etc/.

Make the script executable - For Linux, navigate to the directory containing the script and and run:

  chmod +x motioneye-audio.sh

Configuration

Please confirm the %t %f '%$' ordering as this was changed August 2020 when the script was changed back to camera_id from camera_name.

In your camera settings, under the Video Device section add the following to Extra Motion Options:

Docker

  on_movie_start /etc/motioneye/motioneye-audio.sh start %t %f '%$'

MotionEyeOS

  on_movie_start /data/etc/motioneye-audio.sh start %t %f '%$'

In your camera settings, under the File Storage section enable Run a Command and add the following command:

Docker

  /etc/motioneye/motioneye-audio.sh stop %t %f '%$'

MotionEyeOS

  /data/etc/motioneye-audio.sh stop %t %f '%$'

The configuration section will need to be done for each camera that you want to add audio to the recordings.
