So it looks like increasing the timers definitely helped prevent the daemon from crashing - yay! But another issues arose now - video playback can lag significantly - as in a 5 second clip takes 20+ seconds to play. If I download the raw AVI (or any other format) - it plays perfectly fine. Any ideas ...

Why 40 warmup frames? That means it will not start doing motion detection until it has received 40 frames. I think this feature was more for local cameras. It may be that with that many pre frames, it is taking more than 10 seconds to write out the initial frames, during which it is not doing ...

Halp? Someone? Please?

Bueller....?

Hrm - looking at the logs, it appears that the analysis daemon quits prematurely, terminating the alarm after the initial 10 alarm frames that I've setup.

Any ideas?

Hi all, I recently added a SV3C 1080p cam configured as ffmpeg device. The camera works great but I did have to set it via TCP as UDP has too much packet loss. Anyway - I have a very odd situation. I have my buffers set to 400 image buffer size, 40 warmup frames, 200 for both pre and post count ...

Since the folders do not survive a reboot with 14.04, I created a simple bash script that runs on reboot: #!/bin/bash sleep 20 mkdir /tmp/zm/cache mkdir /tmp/zm/cache/models mkdir /tmp/zm/cache/persistent chown -R www-data:www-data /tmp/zm/cache Basically the script waits about 20 seconds - enough ...

Any ideas, anyone?

Wow - we both posted the same issue at the same time!

Hello!

Ahh OK - I shall ignore it then!

Hi all,

Logged into ZM tonight and it popped up with a notification that zm 1.29.1 is now available. However, it does not appear the package is in the PPA just yet. Any ETA on when it will become available?

Thanks!

Ahhh - ok; I'll put them at 0 and double check on stuff but it shouldn't be a problem. These cameras are pretty solid.

Hrm - I think I know what's going on. The MAX FPS is not more during the day, but during the night, when IR kicks in, the actual FPS gets halved...

Anyway to combat that?

Yes I did - but they are identical to across all my motion-recording cameras.
