It seems the only option that I can get to work is loglevel=debug or at least nothing I have tried can make any obvious difference in the image output of the camera. The test camera is running ffmpeg rtsp/unicast I have tried scaling, sharpen, blur etc. The option being set is logged in debug but ...

I mount mine to a spot where it can include the temp, images and the events directory that way all the images created by the thumbnail views are created on that drive as well. I mount mine on /var/event and symlink everything back to the directory tree on the new hard drive which contains events and ...

I use 2 usb HD auto focus webcams with ZM 1.25 as well as 5 ip cameras. I use mjpg-streamer to connect to the USB cameras and connect ZM as if it is a remote IP camera. This works reasonably well but USB runs out of bandwidth very easily. Look through the ZM Wiki and faq. http://www.zoneminder.com ...

Is there any way to set modetect during certain time frames and turn it off for others? Even a simple cron job to twiddle the database would be OK. If the DB is touched to disable record on a camera what process needs to be told that the database has been changed?

Solved for you.

Really cleans up the created video from an event.

Add this to the output entry in ffmpeg options;
-r 25 -vf "unsharp=l:7:7:5" -ab 64k -b 5000k

Tried unsharp=7:7:2.5 before posting. This seems to only effect the image input for creating avi/mpeg etc from events and does not work at first glance. The cameras still work so it is not effecting the connection to the camera only the creation of video from events. This option fails with; Unable ...

Is there a way to apply the ffmpeg unsharp filter on input to sharpen the incoming frames from an ffmpeg sourced h264 camera?

Thanks,
