Archive here https://launchpad.net/~iconnor/+ppa-packages Grab your previous version. I've really never done this - I understand I have to install a previous package version, but when I run: apt list -a zoneminder I get only: zoneminder/bionic,now 1.35.18~20210224135011-bionic amd64 [installed] I h...

I've always just updated and it mostly worked... Any idea how to downgrade to 1.35.16? I'm running Ubuntu server.

Thank you for your reply!

Bleeding edge, but it used to work!

I've tried similar buffer settings and the issue persists... Never used Slack - link to your channel?

Hello, I just read through this one, which seems to describe a similar issue: https://forums.zoneminder.com/posting.php?mode=post&f=42 Running any camera eats up all available RAM, then the computer starts swapping and slows down to a crawl. I've tried a multitude of different buffer settings, n...

Hello, I spotted several problems from the last two updates: - Events for each camera show thousands of events. When I click on Events, I see only 25 events, which are old and the content is missing (no video) - I can't even delete them. If I go to Montage Review, everything shows as it should. on t...

I've found that using ffmpeg with the latest version of ZoneMinder is a somewhat better choice than using static jpegs - at 640x480 I get 4 fps at night and 8 fps during the day. In Windows this camera is capable of a little more fps, so I believe there's room for improvement. Concerning the scripts...

Thank you for replying. I've successfully compiled 1.24.0, but I have trouble setting it up (mysql, etc.) - not really such an advanced user as I wish to be. I'll read through the documentation and will try to set it up. Starting to think that it's easier to use Windows (oh no! :D). Thank you again!...

Gentlemen, forgive me for being new to the ZoneMinder (i.e. asking stupid questions), but how do I exactly use this in an already compiled version, such as the one used in Ubuntu (from reps)? I have a camera with an mjpegb (yuvj422p) stream that I can view with ffmpeg/ffplay. Since using mjpeg gives...

Ok, using ffmpeg I've been able to determine that the camera's stream is mjpegb (yuvj422p). Two questions: 1. What is the mjpeg stream format used by ZoneMinder? 2. Will it work if I have ffmpeg convert the stream for Zoneminder to read? Any ideas how to implement this? Thank you again (and I believ...

I see that it uses uicam as an http server. Maybe it's worth digging something there. If I find something I will post.

Thanks again for the excellent support. It's good that you placed GGL ads on the forum

That's the script I was referring to, yes. But it still doesn't explain why I get higher fps in the cam's webserver than I do in ZM, which is strange. Did you take a look at the stream it outputs when using: <IP>/cgi-bin/ Try hitting F5 three-four times to see what I mean: http://r02.no-ip.org:8090/...

Thanks :) You should be able to view the camera yourself from the link I've provided. Here it is again . The direct link from the image is: <IP>/image.jpg?cachebust=1579693&a=0 The value of cachebust changes, but the javascript used for that is available in one of the page sources on the camera'...

Thank you from replying cordel - I see you are the guru on the forum, so I really appreciate it. First help us out a bit here, whats the camera? That would be interesting for me as well - bought it from a Chinese website as IP-400, but then discovered it on the net as LTI-510 . My guess would be tha...

Hey, guys, Not sure if I used the right terminology in the title, but the problem comes when using my IP camera with ZM. The camera outputs a direct <IP>/image.jpg, but when viewed in ZM the FPS is much slower than when viewed directly in the camera's webserver. There is no consistent way to measure...
