Need help with openwrt/Linux mjpg-streamer or equivalent

I need someone to help me with old mjpg-streamer package for openwrt and for x86. MUST know openwrt and (in my case) Centos7 *very* well. This package has all but been abandoned and I would be open to using something else so long as it works in both operating systems. Let me know what you are thinking and I will consider it so long as it is current and still in development. I must snap a series of photos and a video clip when there is motion. This is currently being done using 'motion' but need help with configuring motion correctly so that it does not fill the drive with useless images. Streaming video works perfectly but since I cannot find anything current for mjpg-streamer, it means I cannot use special functions such as PTZ. For example I am testing a QuickCam Orbit AF with pan tilt but cannot compile the input_control so. Also, the package says this is already built into the output_http. Basically just need to sort this out and get these things working correctly or use something else.
