not sure if you need ffmpeg to encode or decode. but these commands will list the compile options and enabled features. ffmpeg -codecs ffmpeg -formats if what you want is not listed you will have to recompile ffmpeg http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=786095 Thank you for your answer. I think ...

Hi all,
how can I check if my installation of ZopeMinder is using the h264 codec?
I suppose I should check something on the ffmpeg used by ZM.

And if it is not using h264 what should be done to use it?

I'm using an Ubuntu server.

Thank you very much

Yes, the problem was simply I didn't uncheck OPT_FAST_DELETE.
Thank you

Hi all, I use Zoneminder 1.24.2 on CentOs. I created a new filter called PurgeWhenFull-1 based on(PurgeWhenFull) to purge old events from both the database and the file system. I set it to run in background every 10 minutes and to delete oldest events. The filter runs correctly every 10 minutes ...

Um, you don't, really. Typical ADSL upstream is sufficient for one camera, badly. For six you'd be watching one vga frame every 10s or so which probably wouldn't be that useful, certainly not for zm to work with. I face this situation for three remote sites and my solution is to host everything ...

Hi all, I have an installation of ZoneMinder on a server with an ADSL that has an upload bandwidth of 350-400 Kbps. I should monitor and register 6 cameras. Which is the best configuration in terms of fps and resolution according to you? What are the considerations I should do to avoid a bandwidth ...

Hi all, I had some problems with Zone Minder 1.24.2 using cambozola 0.22 on a CentOs distribution (5.3). When I opened the montage view, the monitor were shown in a wrong way, that is the images of different cameras were repeated in the monitors in a random way. For example, sometimes all the ...

It is an option of the configure utility.

./configure --with-webdir=... --with-cgidir=... --with-webuser=www-data --with-webgroup=www-data

I remember well these data are written in the file zm.conf, but now I haven't the pc with ZM installed and I can't check it.

Ok, excuse me. I've solved the problem. The FAQ helped me. I read it to fast the first time. The section is "Why can't I see streamed images when I can see stills in the Zone window etc?" http://www.zoneminder.com/wiki/index.php/FAQ#Why_can.27t_I_see_streamed_images_when_I_can_see_stills_in_the_Zone ...

I've reinstalled Zone Minder 1.23. Now I have no errors in the log files of the system, but I can't still see the frames of the "monitor" page: http://i38.tinypic.com/2wfiqfd.jpg But the "Zones" pages seems to work: http://i38.tinypic.com/9k6o9i.jpg How can I debug this problem? Which is the ...

Hi, I've installed ZoneMinder 1.23 on an Ubuntu Workstation (8.0,4) and i'm using an Axis Camera 207 with firmware v 4.40.1. I've added a monitor that uses this cam and is configured in this way: root@argo:/home/claudio# zmu -m 1 -q Id : 1 Name : PrimaWebCam Type : Remote Host : 192.168.16.77 Port ...

I've installed zm on an Ubuntu Workstation (8.0,4), I've added a monitor related to an Axis 207 webcam. I've tried all the "presets" configurations for the "Axis IP..." cameras. But in all the cases when I click on the name of the camera I can't see any image. I can see only a broken icon. However ...

Yes, thank you, running zm with the apache user (www-data) it starts.
