Now you should be able to access your machine using this static IP remotely on Putty or any other tool to access machine remotely. 

Step 2: Once you have IP address set, run below command to update / upgrade Raspberry PI.

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get upgrade

Step 3: Install these packages using below command

wget https://github.com/ccrisan/motioneye/wiki/precompiled/ffmpeg_3.1.1-1_armhf.deb
sudo dpkg -i ffmpeg_3.1.1-1_armhf.deb

Step 4: Install these library files

sudo apt-get install curl libssl-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev libjpeg-dev libx264-142 libavcodec56 libavformat56 libmysqlclient18 libswscale3 libpq5

Step 5: Once you have all Library file installed, check if you have Motion installed already, if its already installed moved to step 6 or install Motion software

sudo apt-get install motion

Step 6: Edit motion.conf file  /etc/motion/motion.conf

daemon on
stream_localhost off

#Change these line to off.

output_pictures off
ffmpeg_output_movies off

#To do realtime streaming and smooth video change values (100 or 80 or 50)

stream_maxrate 100            
framerate 100

# Check your video size on the screen and update accordingly, to change width and hight of image

width 640 
height 480 

Step 7: If you want to run video streeming from boot-up, make below changes or switch to next step to run Video streaming manually

Edit  file  /etc/default/motion as below

start_motion_daemon=yes
 

Now restart machine, once you reboot, go to step 9

Step 8: To start service manually you can run either sudo motion or below command

To stop video steaming, just enter stop in above command instead of start .

Below command to restart service.

sudo service motion restart

Step 9: Now you can access the Video from Raspberry camera to remote machine using this IP address on your browser over port 8081. Please make sure your camera hardware has powersupply(if required) and light is ON.

If you want to access your Raspberry camera video over internet outside your house network, than assign static IP provided by your internet service provider to Raspberry PI.
