Question: Distinguish programmatically triggered event from motion triggered

[angrycoding]

Distinguish programmatically triggered event from motion triggered.

There is a way to programmatically trigger motion event, using webcontrol and "/action/eventstart" url. In my setup I use on_movie_end configuration option to process the movie. Now I need to determine whenever the movie was produced using manual trigger or the motion itself. Is there any way to do that without any enhancement?

The code already knows if the event has been triggered by the user:
https://github.com/Motion-Project/motion/blob/master/src/webu.c#L567
But enhancement needed so that variable is available for users

I don't know if it can apply to your question, I use changed pixels value %D to detect a programmatic event start, changed pixels = 0 for programmatic event start while have a positive number for motion event start.
