Re: FFmpeg not working - libvlc stops.

So, today I tried Ubuntu 16.04 with Zoneminder 1.29 and faced the same problems. After some testing, searching and trying i didn't find anything usefull that could solve these issues. I went back to Ubuntu 15.10 with Zoneminder 1.28.1 as it was in my initial and stable setup. But I faced several new...

Re: FFmpeg not working - libvlc stops.

Yes, i did... df -h shows me a tmpfs with a size of 3.9Gb with 45% in use... The VM has 4 cores of 3.5GHz and 8Gb of RAM. It is consuming an average of 37% of the 4 cores and a little more then 5GB of memory...

Re: FFmpeg not working - libvlc stops.

Gosh, that's a difficult question to answer. I am quite a virtualisation guy. I am allready virtualising things since ESXi was still named GSX - so that's a long way back. And frankly, the (very) small footprint a VMware setup takes up, does not compare in any ways to the flexibility it gives. I am ...

Re: FFmpeg not working - libvlc stops.

Re: FFmpeg not working - libvlc stops.

Well, since the diskspace it used (750Gb) i had to say goodbye to the previous VM of Zoneminder. The new server is running on an SSD drive with events and video on different storage, so it will be easier to migrate in the future. So there is no more chance to grab the previous database. I did write ...

FFmpeg not working - libvlc stops.

Hi, My previous setup of zoneminder was version 1.28. I had 9 camera's capturing through RTP FFmpeg streams and it all worked fine. The system was running on a VMware ESXi6 server on Ububtu server 15.10. since we wanted 9 more camera's, i upgraded the mainboard from a Core i5 2x3500 MHz (where zonem...
