I get that and will set that up, but my main problem is not with ZMNinjia and I only have 5 monitors

13.2 RELEASE using repo latest; pkg installed ZM 1.36.33; 5 monitors all showing video on the Montage screen; can Mocord on most cameras, one keeps giving me: "Socket /var/run/zm/zms-805027s.sock does not exist. This file is created by zms, and since it does not exist, either zms did not run, or zms ...

Don't I connect to the socket when I run 'mysql -u' ?

'show status' shows 780 show status where variable_name = 'threads_connected'; shows 6 +-----+--------+-----------+------+---------+------+----------+------------------+ | Id | User | Host | db | Command | Time | State | Info ...

You mean cameras? 3

It doesn't look like it; 'mysql-server status' shows the PID remains the same after the server has been up for hours

No surprise, the PurgeWhenFull filter doesn't work

So, the cameras show video and create events to fill up the hard drive; Makes sense the behind the scenes stuff doesn't work

New install FreeBSD 13.1, ZM 1.36.12 & MySQL 5.7; ZM seems to be working correctly, the cameras display images; I have manually connected to MySQL with -u zmuser -p dozens of times without fail; I have no idea how to fix this and it seems I'm the only person in the world having this problem. However ...

Great work rk4n3! What are the chances of getting ZM to take advantage of the hardware compression on the card to reduce CPU overhead? I would be willing to start work on this if someone would point me in the right direction.

Does anyone have ZM talking to the Vista 21P? I want to use Facial Rec to unlock a Z Wave deadbolt & Car Rec to open the garage door. Here is a link to what I think is the API, rs alarmnet com/TC21API/TC2.asmx . Does this look like what I need?
