I am fairly new to RPI and the OS. I used your 16GB image to create the SDCARD and got it to work using "python rpotter.py" and can also get the start-up file to work by typing "bash /etc/init.d/rpotter-startup start".

I have done the command to add the rpotter-startup to start when the OS boots but this does not seem to work. I assume once the OS boots that I should see the camera start and then see the video running looking for movements just like running "python rpotter.py" but I do not see the video and it seems like the camera does not run. I copied the file"rpotter-startup" from the guthub to the /etc/init.d directory and then ran the below command to make it executable and register it.

sudo chmod 755 /etc/init.d/rpotter-startup
sudo update-rc.d rpotter-startup defaults

Is there some log I can look at to see if the command was called? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Tim
