Hi guy's
Anyone know how to stop the process that is generating this error?

Video generation '/usr/bin/zmvideo.pl -e 52427 -r 1 -s 0 -f mp4' failed with status: 9

It seems to survive a reboot/restart

Hi guy's I've recently upgraded from I think 1.34 to 1.36 and I'm now getting lots of 0kb length events. I'm getting lots of warnings in the logs:- "Found iterator at beginning of queue. Some thread isn't keeping up" When I run "top" / "htop" on the terminal for the machine that ZM is installed on I ...

Its still doing it for me on 1.36.7

Yeah, it's a bit weird. The video seems to play alright on the console thumbnail screen but when clicked it fails. If I had to guess maybe a different set of options is passed to the video player when the video is opened from the thumbnail? I don't know enough about the detail to dig into that ...

Hi guy's I am having trouble viewing events in my browser, Brave, Edge and Firefox . Ubuntu 20.04, Zoneminder 1.36.5 All I'm getting is a black box in the viewing screen with the progress bar running as expected across the bottom. There seems to be nowhere to check the file paths in the current ...

Hi
Did you get to the bottom of this? I'm having the same issue

Hi guy's

My system log file now has upward of 1.2 million lines in it.

Any Ideas on how to make this smaller so that it doesn't take forever to load?

Hi guy's

I may have missed something really simple but I can't find a setting to change the font colour in the help popups. It's currently so light that I'm struggling to read them. I'm in Dark mode.

That would be cos they've fixed it

Hi Guy's

I get a "Connection not secure" message when I go to zoneminder.com.

Can someone implement Let's Encrypt certificates for the site?

Hi Guy's

I have an issue with recording events. It seems that the event length is limited to about nine seconds no matter what is happening in the camera feed?

Anyone got any ideas what might be happening?

Hi Guy's A quick note on my upgrade experience. I got the following errors when upgrading from 1.32 to 1.34 on Ubuntu 18.04, 5 cameras. Unsafe symlinks encountered in /var/tmp/zm, refusing. Unsafe symlinks encountered in /var/cache/zoneminder/cache, refusing. Seems they were required because there ...

Hi guy's

I'm looking for a way to determine whether individual camera's are alive and get an email when they are down.

Tried using a filter but they only seem to work on events?

Do I need to use a script outside ZM and use the API to get the camera status?
