I know a few posts have been made on this over the years. The challenge as many have realized is one disk is just not enough to store any significant volume. Options then include raid systems, LVM system and the like. With low end systems, they add to cost or complexity. Any non-mirrored or ...

Since the question was asked...and I wanted an html report to do it... Might even link this into my console report some how or link off it... #!/bin/bash cd /var/cache/zoneminder/events for d in `ls -latr|grep \>|awk '{print $8}'`;do du -sDm $d;done >/tmp/events.tmp df|grep -v none|grep -v udev ...

Use the monitor on A as a source type remote (first tab) to track the local device monitor on B. Your other monitors on A are likely local devices. I've done similar just to track various activities and report them in one place. One group of monitors does nothing but recording. The other unit does ...

The table monitors , field path has a default length of 64. This I found too short to get an authentication string in if using remote monitors. I found that it kept getting truncated and drove me crazy to find out why it wouldn't authenticate until I realized the data wasn't even being passed ...

I've got, both in-house and at several clients, Aastra 57i series phones on asterisk pbx's. I would love to hear the door bell in my home office, and simply press a button on the phone to pull up an image that's there. In the client's cases, they're often small business that keep the front door ...

Any thoughts on how to do this... I want to set up one of my cameras for dual purposes: Speed monitoring in front of the house (with zones, configured to determine car direction) that will also then capture the plate on the vehicle with matching timestamp from another camera that is hidden roadside ...

Option A is my thought for ease of install. Only need power and wifi signal. Self contained, no cable pulling. Video cable and office/kids room networks were tedious enough

getting zm setup as a house monitor system. Would like to put a bunch of cheap touch screens about that with a single button push, power on and bring up a montage type screen. Kitchen to view door, bedroom to monitor alarms up front or see who's at front door, etc. thought of using something like ...

In firefox (and I suspect other browsers), if you already have a particular window open, clicking a link to reopen (ie Montage, etc), doesn't appear to do anything since the window is open behind the current one. To fix, in the skins/classic/js folder, edit the file skins.js to change function ...

Question...where would I find these defined - are they in a file...or the database. I would like to edit the variable presented so I can embed the authentication and skin selection in the string passed. I've grepped the files and checked through the database to no avail.

One problem I found with my USB cameras is they were particular in the sequence they are listed. By deleting all cameras, then adding them back to the monitor as they appear using the /dev/video0, /dev/video1...etc...now, I can see them all. Don't know why yet but spent way too much time trying to ...

Is anyone using this to monitor their pool. I would like to set up a switch so when someone intends to go out to the pool, they trigger an alarm event and possibly some type of physical alarm too. If you "trigger" a disable, ie, push a button, etc, it ignores alarms until a 5 min window is clear of ...
