Hey, All my cams are on Mocord, so there's always recordings but often on playback I receive a black screen and Time till next event approx 158XXXXXX it's always a full number and it does tick down. Sometimes the playback resumes, sometimes not. Really hit and miss and I can't see a pattern to it ...

Thanks for that answer. On 1.34.9 I'd noticed a couple of funny issues with monitors being outside of visual range and one which is actually double it's true size mirrored above itself ( flipped above on the x axis, though invisible, but clickable), it's invisible boarder appears when you click ...

I've had a busy week and didn't find the time to test this until now. Testing only the spectre kernel changes firstly... For anyone who's not done it before, In ubunutu 18.04 making only the changes to grub sudo nano /etc/default/grub In grub… modifying only this line adding: spectre_v2=off nopti p ...

Good one! I should have thought of that, I remember when we patched Spectre at work and seeing up to 15% performance hits, but those are proper enterprise servers, not my flogged out consumer level already high I/O ZM server - credit though it's run for about 6 years 24/7 smashing camera feeds ...

Hi Folks, I spent the weekend upgrading Ubuntu 17.04 now quite long out of support to 18.04 LTS. To give myself time and ease of rollback, I grabbed a new SSD and started fresh knowing I can plug in the former build and get the server is back online. So I followed the wiki https://wiki.zoneminder ...

Just to thank you again, now all is working 100% - Quick update on the last ironing out of kinks in case someone else does the same stupid thing I did quite by accident. FIX Once I removed the servers and checked the server table was empty I was getting errors in the log: Unable to load Server ...

Aha, thanks! As mentioned I'd changed over from my old build, which was years old and had many ZM upgrades starting at maybe 1.23 or 4... Being a lazy sod and figuring I'm going from 1.30 to 1.30: I migrated the database + all the settings in which the server had been set on the old build (less ...

Apologies, To clarify: -Live streaming works inside my own network (inside firewall) -Outside of network, ZM (its a single server instance) works for event playback and all other features except for live streaming single or montage, niether will play. I've tried differing browsers, devices and never ...

Thanks for getting back to me. I've tried a bunch of tests, I noticed it didn't work on iPhone, so tried Chrome and firefox on my lappy. Firefox has the browser fixes already as I'm a long time ZM user. Ran my laptop with a 4G wireless connection. It's not a Http or Https issue as I forwarded both ...

Hi, I recently decided to switch my older Centos 6.7 for a new Ubuntu 16.04 build, ZM 1.30 iconnor/zoneminder repo installed without a hitch, or at least I thought. Fairly certain this is an apache setup issue, but I can't pin it down. I have montage view working inside my own LAN but via the web it ...

Excellent works a perfect now. Had to flip the resolution settings on a few 720p cams which I'd previously rotated left or right. I see the resolution height and width are now rotated automatically, fixed the corresponding zones. Looks to have a good performance improvement too, load levels are down ...

Hi all, I've been having trouble upgrading on Centos 6.8 from ZM 1.29 - 1.30. So I've upgraded the standard way as I have many times before. This is with CentOS Base and the zmrepo enabled. yum install zoneminder Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, priorities, refresh-packagekit, security Setting up ...

Not a config item I've seen before, updated to 4 as no events in the last month have more than 4500 frames.

No ill effects after a restart, will monitor ongoing.

Thanks for the tip!

Hey Hey, I've upgraded to 1.27.0 for a while, and on a month view I have a number of super long duration events, that won't play back. Most play back just fine, all my monitors are set to 300 seconds and 99% of events are just that. then there's these: http://img42.com/sinXw+ The frame counts on the ...

I noticed that didn't have the preset controls included in that control script... here's a bastardised version for anyone keen for the 8 preset controls. # ========================================================================== # # ZoneMinder Foscam FI8910W IP Control Protocol Module # # primary ...
