Using SSL/HTTPS with Motion Video Streaming

Is it possible to create a secure connection using motion? I have embedded my motion stream on an HTML page using Apache, but it will not display as it is an insecure iframe on a secure page. I can view the motion stream at 

http://example.com:<Motion-Port>

but the embedded video at 

https://example.com

will not display.

iFrame code:

<iframe src="http://example.com:<Motion-Port>" width="1300" height="740"></iframe>
Solution

  • The answer is to not use motion. It hasn't been updated in 3 years! Use ZoneMinder or iSpy instead.

    I wish I had checked this before stubbornly pushing through Motion.
