Exception in callback MjpgClient._on_connect

[mkrsn]

Hi,

right after installing and configuring motioneye.eo (22.4.1) i saw the following error.

ERROR: Exception in callback MjpgClient._on_connect(<Future finis...7f336dae47f0>>)
handle: <Handle MjpgClient._on_connect(<Future finis...7f336dae47f0>>)>
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python3.10/base64.py", line 534, in _input_type_check
    m = memoryview(s)
TypeError: memoryview: a bytes-like object is required, not 'str'

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python3.10/asyncio/events.py", line 80, in _run
    self._context.run(self._callback, *self._args)

    auth_header = utils.build_basic_header(self._username, self._password)
  File "/opt/motioneye/lib/python3.10/site-packages/motioneye/utils/__init__.py", line 282, in build_basic_header
    return 'Basic ' + base64.encodebytes(f'{username}:{password}').replace('\n', '')

  File "/usr/lib/python3.10/base64.py", line 537, in _input_type_check
    raise TypeError(msg) from err
TypeError: expected bytes-like object, not str

p.s. thx for forking motioneye! 👍

Fixed in original project this way: https://github.com/motioneye-project/motioneye/blob/2612b95/motioneye/utils/__init__.py#L281-L282

Thx for the hint. I've changed both lines but it looks like there are some more of this problem.

Just to rule it our, could you try to migrate to the other project (which includes all the localisation features and other enhancements from here, but some additional fixes, obviously): https://github.com/motioneye-project/motioneye/tree/dev#installation

I've switched to 0.43.0, as you recommended. Exceptions are gone.
