### Description
Installs older version of Surveillance Station and Advanced Media Extensions so motion detection and HEVC playback are supported.
This script installs Surveillance Station 9.2.0-11289 and Advanced Media Extensions 3.1.0-3005
### Download the script
1. Download the latest version _Source code (zip)_ from https://github.com/007revad/SS_Motion_Detection/releases
2. Save the download zip file to a folder on the Synology.
3. Unzip the zip file.
### To run the script via task scheduler
See [How to run from task scheduler](https://github.com/007revad/SS_Motion_Detection/blob/main/how_to_run_from_scheduler.md)
### To run the script via SSH
[How to enable SSH and login to DSM via SSH](https://kb.synology.com/en-global/DSM/tutorial/How_to_login_to_DSM_with_root_permission_via_SSH_Telnet)
```YAML
sudo -s /volume1/scripts/ss_motion_detection.sh
```
**Note:** Replace /volume1/scripts/ with the path to where the script is located.
### Troubleshooting
If the script won't run check the following:
1. Make sure you download the zip file and unzipped it to a folder on your Synology (not on your computer).
2. If the path to the script contains any spaces you need to enclose the path/scriptname in double quotes:
```YAML
sudo -s "/volume1/my scripts/ss_motion_detection.sh"
```
3. Make sure you unpacked the zip or rar file that you downloaded and are trying to run the ss_motion_detection.sh file.
4. Set the script file as executable:
```YAML
sudo chmod +x "/volume1/scripts/ss_motion_detection.sh"
```
### After running the script
Enable HEVC decoding:
1. Open Package Center > Installed.
2. Click Advanced Media Extensions.
3. Click on Open.
4. You may need to [Sign in to your Synology account](https://github.com/007revad/Video_Station_for_DSM_722/blob/main/syno_account_sign_in.md)
5. Click on Install then OK.
### What about future DSM updates?
1. Update DSM.
2. Package Center will show Advanced Media Extensions as "incompatible with your DSM".
3. Run this script again.
