Running 1.36.10 on Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS.
When I add a Monitor and go to Presets. Select a preset from the drop down, the SAVE button does not highlight. I cannot apply the preset.

I have searched the documentation and forums but cannot find anything on selecting the right Alarm Check Method. Are there pointers somewhere? In particular I bought a Foscam 8918 which is working ok, except at dawn and dusk it triggers 100's of events. The camera seems to oscillate its light level ...

Looks the same for $60.

What is your experience with the camera?

Anyone have any experience with this: http://www.x10.com/promotions/airsight_wireless_ip_camera.html?YBINT The only thing I can say about x10.com is there stuff is cheap. Their alarm stuff mostly works for me, but it needs some mothering. I would guess this camera comes from a different source so ...

I used to be able to control my BL-C30. I know this because I posted that here: http://www.zoneminder.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=9470 in 2007. Somewhere along the way I lost the magic during some upgrade. I don't remember which one as I only use the system when we are away on vacation so there are ...

I'm surprised no one has suggested what might cause this behavior or how I might track it down. Doesn't anyone have a suggestion?

I'd still like to understand where the negative times are coming from. (Is there some way to insert a web page into the forum, I don't have an external server? If so I can post the Frames page. In the mean time...) Here is the sequence that I'm seeing. I have 29 frames. Frames 1-10 are pre-alarm and ...

The camera appears to be functioning well enough, my needs are not too critical. Perhaps the camera problems are triggering the bad behavior from ZM, but I would like to try to get ZM to behave properly even if the camera does not respond all the time. Yes, my wireless signal is not what I hoped ...

I recently installed a new Panasonic BL-c30 camera, upgraded to 1.22.3 and am having some strange problems. I thought that maybe my down rev MySQL could be the problem so blew away my db installed MySQL-5.0.45 but the problems persist. When an event triggers I usually get several events in rapid ...

One more: I tried setting presets on the control page for the camera. The setting part seems to work but the camera just goes to one extreme or the other when I hit the preset button. Any ideas on what to look at?

I finally got BL-C30 to work wirelessly. Apparently the BL-C30 only supports open system and not shared key connections.

Apparently the control is not included in update scripts and I have updated my ZM installation over the years rather than doing a clean install. Inserting the record from db/zm_create.sql (changing its ID not to conflict) seems to do the trick!

Now if only the camera would work wirelessly!

Ah! It might be good if Chapter 9 starts with saying you have to enable control.

Now I have a control tab, but there is no panasonic option in the control type. Any ideas where to find it? I have searched the forum and I don't see anything about having to install it.

Any idea why my monitor panel has no control tab? All I have is:

Hi Carey,

I can't get the wireless function of my BL-C30 to work. Did you have any trouble with this?
