Motion Detection

I'm a ghost hunter, and I always set up the cameras in each location I investigate. I also make YouTube videos.

 

One thing that would make it much better and easier to edit and make videos is motion detection. Like, any motion or change in the screen would put the marker on the clip. It would allow me to check out every detected motion, instead of sitting down and staring at the screen for hours.

 

Yes, I've used the scene edit detection feature, but it's not the same.

You could take a still of the empty room and add it to V2, set the blend mode to difference. You would then have a black screen until there is movement on the main track. It might be easier to spool through and find motion. Looking at the video waveform will show a flat line until something moves.
