Hello bonsainuser, thank you for your suggestion. Interesting. I changed power adapter for that raspberry due to a false contact of the older one (the one that I used for one year without issues). I can try resuming to use that power adapter for some day to see if it makes difference, using caution ...

Hello Andrew, thank you again for interesting! Here the data you requested: let's start with my configuration. Camera id=1: picam GENERAL http://i63.tinypic.com/2aihcg1.jpg SOURCE http://i66.tinypic.com/14m9gzp.jpg BUFFERS http://i67.tinypic.com/2pydp35.jpg Camera id=3: Foscam FI9804W (720p h264 cam ...

Hello Andrew, first of all thank you for your reply! Before to going further: please wait and read again what I wrote with another mood. I'm sure it's my fault, for sure, maybe because english is not my first language. I was not pretending anything, absolutely! I know your spare time (and other too ...

Latest finding from log files: it seems not related to events I've posted above but, when it stops to work, I find this in the log: 06/29/16 23:40:19.112759 zmc_m4[29959].DB3-zm_remote_camera_http.cpp/147 [Request sent] 06/29/16 23:40:21.615482 zmc_m4[29959].DB4-zm_remote_camera_http.cpp/168 [Select ...

I've experimented a lot and I have more data. I'm rather sure to have found the root of the problem but not a solution (could be a bug). shmmax, however, seems to be an important part as zoneminder seems to still use shared memory to share stream buffer between processes (even the wiki for setting ...

Hm... I'll try to lower my shmmax and buffer size, trying to lower memory usage. However I'm sure that 1.29 can work as well as 1.28. There something for sure that I have to change. I'll try that and post result. Thank you to who replied to me in the meanwhile

But... I had my zoneminder 1.28 on Debian Stretch perfectly working for one year without a single issue receiving the same 4 cameras with same parameters! I never had to restart it in one year! Now every day I have at least one camera that doesn't work... There should be a small configuration, a ...

I'm further investigating. I've enabled LOG_LEVEL_FILE to level Debug, LOG_DEBUG = On, LOG_DEBUG_LEVEL = 5 and waited that a problem arrive. This time was another camera that stopped to be received, so here is the last lines of zm_debug.log.29959 (the PID of the last process that was handling that ...

Trying to understand this morning I've found one stuck camera (the first, most of the time this is the camera that zoneminder stops to receive). As always I've restart zoneminder and the camera came back to life (the camera has no problem at all). Trying to figure out I've checked events. My last ...

Long story short: I have a Raspberry Pi 2 with ZM 1.29.0, Raspbian Jessie, followed your guide plus some other for using an external SSD to record events and images, I've put a higher shmmax value, enabled the v4l for the embedded PiCam, etc. I have 4 cam, 3 foscam 720P IP camera and the embedded ...
