yes, it allows the restart to be more reliable... the resolution change is just to maximize what the camera is capable of on the S5. If you try a resolution larger, mjpg-streamer will just force it to max allowed by the camera.
I've been using the system like this for 3 days, and the camera has not failed once. previously, it failed after a few hours if i was lucky to make it that long.
I think the problem is when it tries to restart with the default setting (3 sec) its not actually releasing the device fast enough for the new service to grab it. the 10 sec seems to work really well for me.... ymmv
