Thanks for this. The only minor issues I could see with this approach would be that I'm actually capturing two events.. one on the sub-stream monitor and another on the main-stream monitor. And, any image outlining would be done on the sub-stream.. Thanks though.. decent work around.

I'm not seeing anything wrong with this monitor config... I would take the max fps out.. shouldn't change anything, but why limit it when you're trying to increase at this point. On the camera side, what type of images are you capturing? Is this area generally bright or dark? What setting do you ...

It might help if you describe how you have it configured? Perhaps some screen shots of the monitor config... Just a thought..

Most ip cams have the ability to broadcast via Bonjour these days.. In addition, many people have older cell phones that might be repurposed in an ad hoc fashion to stream local video. One easy way of doing this is a simple app (e.g, Pocketcam) that streams to a local server via Bonjour. It would be ...

ever figure this out? I'm curious as well....

Hi guys, Haven't posted in quite a while... started with 1.24, went to 1.25 virtual machine, and recently installed 1.26.5.. I'm currently running running an 8 core / 16 gb Centos server with zm running 4 cores & 4 gb's in an Ubuntu KVM guest. New version seems to run much smoother than older ones ...

Yes, I can send to separate email and messaging accounts... Under options/email.. populate both addresses with different addresses.. for email I use and email address for message I use my at&t cell email address that routes it as a text message... Make sure opt_email and opt_message are flagged ...

This one seems to have come up rather spontaneously... whenever I attempt to open an event to view the mjpeg stream, the window just kind of stalls while it's attempting to open... I notice the following while I'm simultaneously tailing the logs: Aug 22 11:46:39 9745 zms[28351]: ERR [Improper call ...

Did you take a close look at your config log after running configure? I had issues building on Fedora where configure was set up improperly effectively causing it to look for ffmpeg files twice.. so it found them and also didn't find them and then complained that it didn't find them.. May or may not ...

Thanks for the reply... Never had a problem getting the camera to work.. I pass the user/password in the monitor config along with the ip address.. When in MODECT mode, alarms go off on motion with no problem.. All the zone and monitor configs work fine. What doesn't work is actually generating an ...

Hey guys, I've followed the wiki here: http://www.zoneminder.com/wiki/index.php/AxisMotionDetection and I'm not able to generate any triggered events. Can anyone lend a hand? This is driving me nuts.. From all the forum posts, it should just work... Per the following, I'm getting the cam to send the ...

You need to play with "FFMPEG_OUTPUT_OPTIONS" in the "images" tab of "options".. you can google FFMPEG and CLI or "command line", etc to get an idea of your options.. there are many! In short though, what I've done to increase quality is to add the following to that option: "-r 25 -b 800k", which ...

Thanks!

I must have missed that one...

Ok.. how about this then.. since I can't go back in and check the triggers box without deleting the monitor and creating a new, would I break anything if I just went into the database and updated that value in the Monitors table??
