Thank you men! Now ZM behaviur became a little more clear to me
Appreciated so much!

Thanks I did not know what buffers meant.

Another question: while changing buffers from 40 to 100, if camera has resolution setup at 588x384 it becomes RED, while if I keep camera resolution 384x288 - it's OK. Any clue?

You are right. How to increase the buffer? I do not think slowing down capture or other should be done - since AVG CPU load on that PC always less than 2% and mostly less than 1% (Load: 0.47 / Disk: 89%) Sep 4 15:42:00 zm zmc_dvideo15[29914]: WAR [Buffer overrun at index 38, slow down capture, speed ...

What kind of buffer? ZM buffer, Any hardware buffer?

Any browser. Mozilla, Firefox, Opera... But this applies to certain events only. If event behave so - it behaves always.

HEllo! I have met strange behavoiur while viewing recorded events. While event view started, than it eventually stops (event-dependant). Say Event is 90 seconds. I click on the event and I can see only 5 second of the recording, than picture stills, BUT - the progress indicator still progresses ...

Thanks guys! Appreciated so much!

HEllo!, Sorry if that have been already answered, but I did not find though an answer yet. I'd like to monitor different remote cheap USB web cams, attached to a different simple PC's. What is the way to have that cameras to be monitored over the network by the central ZM server? Will hugely ...

Adding extra 512M of RAM made PC more responsive. Find swapping. PS: But anyway some sort slowdown exist while working with interface, not as before though. PPS. Once again met the situation, while perl ZM script occupied port 80 and apache 2 diyed, this could be cured by stopping zm and starting ...

While adding camesras and overall working with ZM, i've noticed signifficant slowdown of the access to the ZM interafce. As more cameras I add, more slow access becames. Just while waiting while ZM add one more camer (I've 16 CCTV cameras attached to 2x8 port BTTV cards. Please note that most of the ...

No, it should not be inode related, too early for that. Newly installed system with 300G HDD - usage currently 4%... and plenty of free inodes and megabytes -

Please don't get me wrong folks, I do not criticize any of you :) I'm just a little emotional :) I'm fan of open source myself and do use almost only linux everywhere, including all of the servers and most WS. ZM a cool stuff, just, somehow, and quite unusual too much problematic since beginning ...

Sorry, I did not correctly explained the problem - I use JPEG streaming The problem happens with ANY streaming - so after some time you find that you cant see live streams or view events. Instead the picture you see a box - like a broken picture link. But there are thumbnails (you can see them) and ...

Sorry for the vulgar lang folks, just after having a night of hardcore love with ZM I was unable to another expressions :) ZM is latest - 1.21.4 Mysql 4.1 Logs... just look at your logs whe everything works fine :) No errors, no warniongs, NOTHING suspicious. So bumping logs here is just waste of ...

I've f.. reinstalled zm last 10 times and cannot find source of the trouble. It just stopes streaming at some point. Initially it works for a few days, and than I can't see any of the pics, just like there is a broken link to the pic. After fresh reinstallation it now even does not start streaming ...
